To perform a DVE transition:
1. Prepare a transition using DVE as the type
of transition, but do not perform the transition.
2. Use the Time knob to change the duration of
the transition.
3. Press NEXT.
4. Use the Effect knob to select the DVE effect
you want to use for the transition, or press a
Wipe Pattern button.
5. Use the Time knob to change the transition
duration.
6. Press AUTO TRANS to perform the
transition.
Note:
• You must include the background when
performing a DVE transition on a Chroma Key,
Self Key, or Auto-Select Key. If you do not
include the background, a dissolve transition is
performed.
• Performing a DVE transition on a DVE Key
without including the background scales the
transition effect to the size of the DVE Key. This
transition does not consume an additional DVE
resource.
• Performing a DVE transition on a DVE Key with
the background included does not scale the
transition effect. This transition consumes the
second DVE resource.
For More Information on...
• preparing transitions, refer to the section
“Transition Overview” on page 3-1.
• modifying DVE transitions, refer to the section
“Modifying DVE Transitions” on page 4-2.
Media Transitions
A Media Transition allows you to use an animation
to cover a transition. When the transition starts, the
switcher plays the selected animation over top of the
background and keys that are being transitioned.
When the cut point () is reached, the switcher
performs a cut transition. It is important to use a
fullscreen image in the animation at the cut point so
that the cut is not visible on-air.
To perform a media transition:
1. Prepare a transition using Media ( DISS and
WIPE) as the type of transition, but do not
perform the transition.
2. Press NEXT.
3. Press the Browse knob.
4. Select the animation you want to use for the
transition. Ensure that you have already set the
cut point for this still.
5. Press AUTO TRANS to perform the
transition.
Note:
• Although you can select a still image for a media
transition, it is not recommended.
• Only Auto Transition should be used for Media
transitions. Using the fader to perform the
transition manually could result in jumps in the
animation.
• The duration of the transition (Time) is set by the
length of the animation.
For More Information on...
• on setting a cut point for a media transition, refer
to the section “Media Transition Attributes” on
page 6-5.
• on setting up an animation for a media transition,
