Section 1: Introduction to Dveous/MX

Start Here

Contents

■  

TEXTURE 

– adds surface textures that combine beautifully with light sourc-

ing and warps for realistic effects. Add textures from incoming video or from 
the internal texture framestore.

■  

KEY

 – Sets the configuration for the B (or twin) channel to process video, 

key or shadow. You can also adjust key and shadow clip and gain settings. 

This is not applicable in the single (1) channel HD mode.

■  

CORNER PIN 

– contains two functions. The Corner Pinning controls lets 

you pick up and tack any or all corners of the image into any four cornered 
position. Great for effects like placing video into a billboard. The AutoCube 
function prepares Dveous/MX to build any polygonal shape: cube, slab, etc.

■  

OUTPUT

 – selects the transparency and key priority of the A channel over 

the B channel.

TimeFrame Effects Editor Buttons 

The 14 blue TimeFrame Effects Editor buttons perform editing commands. 
Pressed alone, or in sequence, they insert, delete, edit, and copy keyframes in 
effects.

■  

INSERT

 – inserts a keyframe into the current time.

■  

DELETE

 – deletes a keyframe and moves the next keyframe to current time.

■  

REMOVE

 – removes a keyframe not effecting the timeline.

■  

COPY

 - copies specified keyframe to another location.

■  

MODIFY - 

replaces current keyframe with the contents of the Workspace.

■  

NORMAL

 – returns Dveous/MX to various default conditions through sin-

gle or multiple presses. For detailed information about Normal settings, see 
Getting Back to Default in the Getting Started section.
