into another. Keys appear as overlays over the
background image.
The switcher supports the following key types:
•
Auto-Select Key
— Key alpha (transparency) is
provided on one input and key fill video is
provided on a second input (character generators
and graphics systems typically provide fill and
alpha on separate channels).
•
Self Key
— Key transparency is derived from the
luminance of the key fill video .
•
Chroma Key
— A user defined color hue is
selected for transparency (such as blue or
green-screen applications).
•
DVE Key
— The video image can be scaled,
cropped and freely positioned on the screen.
Borders and other effects may be used to enhance
the key appearance.
The CrossOver 16 supports 3 keys.
