7.3.4 Inputs section
The native background is an additional layer which
is under all layers. It can be used with one of the
input sources or with a color.
The specification of the native background is that
an input source or a Frame loaded into that layer
will not be scaled. The input is displayed in its
native resolution. You can define up to 8 native
backgrounds.
In this section, you will define which input is able to be set as a native background. The native background
will be a non-scaled input display behind every layer. When an input is configured as a possible native
background, you will lose the anamorphic aspect settings of this input
(see Aspect ratio in chapter: 7.3.10
.
In this section, you will define which still Logo/Frame is able to be defined as a native background. When a
Frame is selected as a possible native background, you will lose the anamorphic aspect settings of this Logo/
Frame.

Under the inputs section, you can define which of your inputs will be a
dual head inputs, meaning they are two paired inputs setting adjacent
content. First, select the plug and then the dual head button if it is the
case.
(See chapter: 7.3.10 Input management.)
You find here the ref
sync feature. If you use genlocked inputs, you need to check the ref
sync box for every genlocked inputs (same genlock).
7.3.6 Native background section
The best application is to affect, into the native background, an input which has the same native resolution
that the output.
If you would like to use one of the inputs source as native background for one of the outputs, you should
make this choice in the inputs menu of the Setup assistant:
Activate NATIVE for the inputs you would like to use later as native.
If NATIVE is activated, you will be able to choose later into the menu this input as a native background. Be
careful about enable all inputs as native background input. When enabling it, the input loses some aspect
process. Being a native input, the input loses its ASPECT IN settings, that means you will not be able to change
the anamorphic size of the input (see INPUT > ASPECT IN)
In the same idea, into the next menu called LOGOS you can select frames to be native background Frames.
