Performing a Graphic Transition
To perform a graphic transition on the software control panel:
1
Select the DVE transition style button in the transition control block.
If the DVE is being used in an upstream key, the DVE transition style button will be
unavailable for selection until the key is taken off air and off next transition. Refer to
sharing DVE resources in the next section for more information.
2
Expand the transition palette and select the DVE transition type. Use the previous
or next arrows to select a different DVE type.
3
From the effects options select the graphic wipe transition.
4
Select the fill source and key source for the graphic from the drop down list.
5
Adjust the key parameters if required.
6
Perform the transition as an auto transition or manual transition from the transition
control block.
To perform a graphic transition on an ATEM advanced panel:
1
Press the DVE transition type button in the transition control block. The DVE settings
menu will appear on the LCD.
If the DVE is already being used in an upstream key, the DVE transition type will not be
available for selection until the key is taken off air and off next transition. Refer to
'sharing DVE resources' later in this section for more information.
2
Press the 'effect' soft button in the LCD menu to open the effect settings and set
the effect to a graphic wipe by selecting the graphic wipe icon using the 'effect' soft
control knob.
The default direction is left to right, but you can change the direction by selecting
'reverse direction'. You can also enable 'flip flop' which will let the effect move forwards
and backwards with each performance of the transition, rather than repeating the same
movement direction.
3
Press the right arrow in the system control buttons to adjust the key settings. Enable
the key and select the fill and key source. If you need to make adjustments to the key,
for example adjusting clip and gain settings, press the right arrow in the system control
buttons to access the key parameters.
