Note: This powerful workflow is ideal for replays from Switcher inputs. However, the four MIX outputs (which
typically include Program output as MIX 1) do not appear on the Switcher button rows. To perform replays

from your Program output you can assign the system’s Mix 1 NDI output to an unused Switc

her input, then

handle replays as described above.

You may find it useful to know that if you execute an instant replay operation before a currently playing
replay is complete, replay of the newer replay angle will replace the former one on output, and the duration
of the replay will be automatically extended.

POSITIONER

FIGURE 301

The

Joystick

provides a very versatile input mechanism. Its

operations can affect many things, including KEY

or DSK layers,

M/Es

,

PTZ

(Pan, Tilt & Zoom) cameras, and even

Media Players

.

The target of

Joystick

operations at any moment is primarily determined by a set of

Joystick delegate

buttons,

outlined in red in Figure 301. The operation performed on the delegated target is determined by a set of

Control Mode

buttons at right, outlined in green in Figure 301.

ELEGATES

Let’s consider the

delegates

first:

LIVESET

Selecting this button assigns the joystick to control the zoom and pan settings of the

currently delegated source.

M/E A/C

This selection assigns the joystick to control the layer represented by the upper row of

the M/E selected in the

M/E DELEGATE

group

whether A or C, depending on the current

M/E Layer

selection (See Section 23.3.3).

M/E B/D

This selection assigns the joystick to control the layer represented by the lower row of

the M/E selected in the

M/E DELEGATE

group

whether B or D, depending on the current

M/E Layer

selection (See Section 23.3.3).
