Device Operation
The difference between a “slate” and “logo” is in the size of the image and how it is used: Logos are classified as
smaller, low-resolution images that can be positioned at specified locations on the screen. Slates occupy the entire
screen. Note that while logos may be used as slates, the image quality will be degraded, as the image will be scaled
to fill the screen.
Slate / logo insertion can be performed on both the encoder and decoder. When configured on the encoder, the
image that is displayed on the output (decoder) will be from the encoder IP address(es) to which each decoder
is subscribed. When configured on the decoder, the image is unique to the specified HDMI output. Refer to the
OmniStream Single-Channel / Dual Channel A/V Decoder User Manual
, for information on managing slate / logo
insertion on decoder units.
