BKGD layer (and, for DSK 2 , its lower-numbered sibling) will appear through or around sources
with transparency as appropriate.
Important Note: Use straight (a.k.a. “non-premultiplied”) alpha channels in TriCaster’s media

TriCaster’s DSK layers offer a lot of creative possibilities. You might use one DSK to display a
permanent station ID ‘bug’. Or, you might superimpose a company logo from Still onto a title
page, add a ‘spinning globe’ animation playing in the DDR to a lower-third, ‘frame’ a keyed
source composed over a title (Figure 156), or set up many other elaborate effects in this manner.

just above the main T-Bar.
