Chroma Key Resource Capturing
Capturing a Chroma Key resource for a new key

• The current Chroma Key is converted to an
Auto-Select Key
• If the current Chroma Key is on-air, it is taken
off-air.
DVE Resource Capturing
Capturing a DVE resource for a new key or transition
takes the DVE resources from the following sources
in order of availability:
• Transition area (if a DVE transition is not in
progress).
• Off-air DVE key (highest key resource is taken
first).
• On-air DVE key (current DVE Key is converted
to an Auto-Select key and taken off-air).
• Transition area (if a DVE transition is in
progress. The transition is converted to a dissolve
transition).
Field Switch Selection
The field switch selection feature allows you to
select when the switcher triggers a transition from
one video source to the next when you are running in
an interlaced video format. Each interlaced video
frame is composed of an odd field and an even field.
You can specify that transitions are initiated on:
• even fields only
• odd fields only
• either even or odd fields
If you are running in a progressive scan video
format, setting your switcher to transition on even or
odd fields will cause the switcher to only allow
transitions on every second frame.
To set when the switcher initiates transitions:
1. Press MENU.
2. Press the SYSTEM Wipe Pattern button.
3. Press NEXT until FldSwt (FrmSwt if you
are using a progressive scan video format) is
displayed.
4. Use the FldSwt (FrmSwt if you are using a
progressive scan video format) knob to select
when transitions are initiated. You can choose
from the following:
• F1 — Field 1 (Odd Field) transitions are
initiated on odd fields.
• F2 — Field 2 (Even Field) transitions are
initiated on the even fields.
• BOTH — Transitions can be initiated on
either even or odd fields or frames.
5. Press the FldSwt (FrmSwt if you are using
a progressive scan video format) knob to
commit the selection.
