Broadcast Pix
V5
5.5 Animation Store
The Broadcast Pix Animation Store plays out native image sequences without the need of
conversion. There are up to 2 animation stores that can play uncompressed files in a
TGA, BMP, GIF, JPG or PNG image sequence, in addition to the Apple Animation Codec
in a .mov file. Channels 1 and 2 can support up to 50 frames per file and per channel of
uncompressed files.
In addition, compressed RLE .TGA files may be used to increase the length of the
animations. When using RLE files each animation in each store has a maximum of
400mb of data. You may also configure the Granite System to have a 1 channel 100
frame (uncompressed) or 800mb (compressed) animation store. This turns the system
into a 1 Animation Store and 1 logo store. Still images/logos may also be loaded in either
animation channel.
