30. Barco Screen Management Systems
Input Types
An input can be defined as:
‘Background”
‘Source’ for either Screen or Aux Destination
Background:
Always Layer 0
Native Canvas Resolution
Multiple inputs can be combined to create 1 widescreen (multi-channel) background`
Layers (PiPs):
Uses a scaler to resize the source
Layered on top of background
Can can be resized, positioned, and decorated
Can be defined by a single input or a combination of mulitple inputs

31. Scaling Layers – Mix Layers Vs Single Layers
Two scalers bound together in mixing mode for input A/B crossfading on PGM
A Screen Destination must have at least one mix layer for PiPs to mix between inputs of different resolutions
Always a channel available in PVW
Can always transition seamlessly
Preset recall to PVW will not cause resource conflicts with the following:
Source Change
Layer Effect
Border Adjustment
Shadow Adjustment
During transition from PVW to PGM, sources are cross dissolved on PGM at the same time. This gives the look of a seamless transition.
Two builds – one for preset recall, one for transition

32. Scaling Layers – Mix Layers Vs Single Layers
Single scaler (More of these available in System)
Cannot seamlessly transition
If layer exists on PGM, changing source in PVW causes a resource conflict
Cannot manually change anything in PVW if PGM is Locked
Preset recall to PVW creates resource conflicts if layer is on Locked PGM
Source Change
Layer Effect
Border Adjustment
Shadow Adjustment
Preset Conflict Resolution Modes:
Force Recall
Change Locked PGM (Glitchy Looking)
Auto (Default Mode)
Preset recall will remove layer from Locked PGM until Operator performs transition
User Confirm

Off
No Change; Error Pops up requiring user interaction

39. Mixing modes : Terminology
Program (PGM) is the on-screen output
Preview (PVW) is the preview of a layout before transitioning on-screen (PGM)
Single Layer :
Layer without Preview where the layer does not have “A-B” mixing capability
May create resource conflicts if layer is already on screen (PGM)
Cannot transition seamlessly, must “dip to black”
Doubles the number of layers that can be shown simultaneous
Mixing Layer
Layer that performs a transition from preview to on-screen (PGM)

40. Genlock – Synchronize the inputs
Prevent tearing by using Genlock to synchronize multiple video signals from one or more media servers

41. Barco Screen Management Keying
TITLE
TITLE
Keying a source allows part of the picture to be rendered transparent, permitting you to “see through” to the content behind it.
Commonly used for lower thirds title graphics over live camera or Logo insertion
Keying is done in a layer
Luma, Chroma and Cut + Fill (Linear) key types
Luma Key Example
TITLE

Chroma Key Example
Cut + Fill MUST use a mixer as it uses one half for cut source, the other half for fill source.
