Transitions
Transitions are used to change the background
video and take keys on and off-air. A transition can
include any combinations of background and keyers
for an ME. The background and each keyer can be
transitioned independently and at the same time using
the dedicated
KEY CUT
and
KEY AUTO
buttons.
Performing Transitions
What you can include in the transition, and the type of
transition you can perform, depend on the number of
media resources you have, and if you are performing a
background and keyer transition at the same time.
Keep the following in mind when performing
transitions:
• If any of the sources going on-air have an assigned
GPI output, the GPI output is triggered and the
switcher then waits the configured pre-delay
interval before performing the transition. If you
perform a transition with the fader handle, the GPI
output is triggered but the pre-delay interval is
ignored.
• If any of the sources going on-air are assigned to
a video server, you can have the video server play
when the source is taken on-air by using the
RlClip
knob to select
On
.
• If any of the sources going on-air are assigned to a
video server, the switcher waits for the configured
pre-delay interval before performing the transition.
If you perform a transition with the fader handle,
the pre-delay interval is ignored.
• If the fader is moved during an auto transition,
control of the transition is passed to the fader.
You must complete the transition with the fader.
This allows you to override any auto transition in
progress with the fader.
• A key only transition can be performed by pressing
the
KEY CUT
or
KEY AUTO
button for the key
you want to transition.
• You can pause an auto transition by pressing the
AUTO TRANS
button during the transition. Press
the button again to continue the transition.
• On a MiniME
™
, Background and key 2 only
support Dissolve and Cut transitions.
• There is no preview output for a MiniME
™
.
Understanding the Transition Menu
When you select a transition type button, the menu
system displays a number of options that allow you
to adjust how a transition is performed or appears.
The options that are available depend on the type of
transition that is selected.
