Another extremely powerful feature is nestled beside just to the left of
Autoplay
in the footer of each
Media
Player.
Labeled ▶
PGM
by default this feature can target
M/E
s as well (Figure 146) as the
Program
row of the main
Switcher
. It provides unique playback and display abilities that make instant replay a thing of joy, as well as
serving other purposes. Click the configuration button (gear) beside the
SHOW ON
button to display the
panel seen in Figure 146.
FIGURE 146
The largest part of this panel contains transition bins for custom
In
and
Out
transitions which will be used to
display the current clip. Select
Custom
from the
Transition In/Out
menus to activate these bins. Otherwise,
you can select
Cut
or
Current
options.
Note that the bin content displayed is synced with the
Background
transition bin for the target video bus, be
it
PGM
or a designated
M/E
. Selecting
Current
uses the current selection in the
Background
transition bin of
the target bus.
Hint: Unlike other
transition bins, these icons do not show a “+” sign gadget on roll
ing the mouse over them.
To replace the effect in slot, modify the content of the Background transition bin of the target you have selected
for SHOW ON.
Once configured, clicking the
SHOW ON
(…)
button will do the following:
•
Swap the current
BG
transition for the main
Switcher
or a designated
M/E
for a custom
Animation
Store
(such as "Replay!") or other specified transition.
•
Transition the current
DDR
selection in on the main Switcher’s
PGM
row, or the
A
row of an
M/E
•
Play the clip (overriding the
DDR
’
s
own
Autoplay
setting, if necessary)
•
Transition back to the original program using a custom transition (such as "Live!) when done
•
Swap the background transition back to the original selection
Hint: Using Replay complementary features, SHOW ON functionality can be triggered by simply adding a clip
(with custom length and speed defined in the Replay menu) from any source being captured to a DDR. Thus a
single button click or numberpad key press can trigger all of this.
