DME 

Wipes

• Either create the first keyframe image outside the screen area, or set the 

image size to zero so that it cannot be seen within the screen.

• Create the first transition to end such that the image can be seen within the 

screen. At this point, press the [PAUSE] button in the keyframe control 
block, turning it on, to set a pause for the keyframe.

• Either create the last keyframe image outside the screen area, or set the image 

size to zero so that it cannot be seen within the screen.

• In the <Transition Mode> group of the Key Frame >DME User PGM menu, 

select [P In P].

Notes on compress (one-channel mode)

Create a minimum of three keyframe points.
• Create the first keyframe with the image at full size.
• In the state at completion of the first transition, create the image to be visible 

within the screen. At this time, press the [PAUSE] button in the keyframe 
control block, turning it on, to set a pause for the keyframe.

• For the last keyframe, once again set the image size to full size.
• In the <Transition Mode> group of the Key Frame >DME User PGM menu, 

select [Compress].

Notes on dual transition mode (two-channel mode)

• Create the first keyframe for each channel as follows.

Channel 1:

 create the image full-size.

Channel 2:

 either create the image outside the screen area, or set the image 

size to zero so that it cannot be seen within the screen.

• Create the last keyframe for each channel as follows.

Channel 1:

 either create the image outside the screen area, or set the image 

size to zero so that it cannot be seen within the screen.

Channel 2:

 create the image full-size.

• In the <Transition Mode> group of the Key Frame >DME User PGM menu, 

select [Dual].

Notes on picture-in-picture (two-channel mode)

Create a minimum of three keyframes.
• Create the first keyframe for each channel as follows.

Channel 1:

 create the image full-size.

Channel 2:

 since the priority is low, it will not be visible on the screen, so 

no particular restrictions apply.
In the Global Effect >Ch1 to Ch4 >Combiner menu, when setting the priority 
of channel 1 and channel 2, set the channel 1 priority higher.

• In the intermediate part of the transition, create the two images so that both 

are visible within the screen. In the Global Effect >Ch1 to Ch4 >Combiner 
menu, when setting the priority of channel 1 and channel 2, set the channel 2 
priority higher.
It is recommended to make the priority settings at a keyframe point at which 
the two images are not overlapping.
