Sample
Setup
Grab
Set up Safire 3 using FG samples taken
from the backdrop and foreground areas.
The following parameters are
automatically adjusted: Max Clip, Chroma
Key Colour – Hue, Foreground
Suppression – Hue, Acceptance &
Suppression, Chroma Key Tune – Key
Saturation.
Background
Select 1, 5 or 12 samples from the
backdrop area of the FG picture to use for
auto setup. Samples are (optionally)
visible on the main and/or aux outputs
and can be re-positioned. These samples
are used to automatically select optimum
chroma key values to allow for variations
in chroma key backdrop hue and
saturation. Usually the more samples
chosen, the more accurate the result.
Foreground
Select 0,1 or 4 samples from the
foreground area of the FG picture to use
for auto setup. These samples are
(optionally) visible on the main and/or aux
outputs and can be re-positioned as
necessary. These samples are used to
amend the settings of the chroma keyer to
isolate regions in foreground areas that
may cause unwanted keying by forcing
the key signal to zero at these points.
