PIP
In a single PIP configuration, one tile fills the background while another tile and its mask float atop
the background. The CURRENT source always serves as the background tile; the NEXT source
always serves as the PIP image.
Background Tile
The background tile always fills the entire screen. You can apply Input Effects (Strobe, Freeze, and
so forth) to the background tile, or make the tile a solid color. You cannot otherwise change the
background tile in any way.
Foreground Tile
You can manipulate the foreground tile and mask in different ways, such as:
•
Position the tile anywhere on screen.
•
Change the size and shape of the tile and its mask.
•
Create a border around the tile.
•
Reposition, resize, and otherwise change the mask without changing its corresponding tile.
To create and apply a single PIP:
