This is the first line of text.
This is the second
OSDX <1…5> <x pos>
This command will locate the line of text associated with the number 1-5 with the horizontal
location defined by the <x pos>.
Example
osdx 1 50 will set the first character of the line of text 1 to x position 50.
OSDY <1…5> <y pos>
This command will locate the line of text associated with the number 1-5 with the horizontal
location defined by the <y pos>.
Example
osdy 1 50 will set the first character of the line of text 1 to y position 50.
Note:
When using the OSDX and OSDY commands, the screen resolution must be taken into account.
Locating the first character outside the video frame will prevent that entire line from being displayed. If
the first character is within the field but the string is longer that the video frame the string will wrap
around and the line directly below will not be displayed. Characters are 16x16 pixels and relate to the
current resolution set by the “PROFILE” command. The range of coordinates starts with 0 and continue
to the maximum pixel range divided by 16 (character size) and subtract 1 ( because 0 is the first position).
Example
D1 resolution in the vertical (Y direction) is 480 and yields 30 line locations
(480/16)-1=29 so line 0 to line 29 are the available Y locations.
OSDCLEAR
This command will clear all the fields configured by the previous commands.
Video Commands
These are associated with the quality of video being encoded. The resolution both in frame size
and in the time domain are supported in this command set.
STREAMTYPE
This command selects between Program and Transport multiplexing of the video stream.
Acceptable parameters are T or P, where P is Program and T is Transport.
Default: P (program stream)
Example: STREAMTYPE T (transport stream)
PROFILE
This command is used to select a desired resolution for the encoded video. It also sets the
optimal defaults for other parameters, such as bit rate. The allowable settings are QQCIF, QCIF, CIF,
1/2, D1.
Default: 1/2
Example Command:
PROFILE 1/2
(sets resolution to 1/2 D1)
