Mask Mode

Select one of the following modes:

Force FGD

Forces the area within the selected and adjusted mask to show the fore-
ground signal.

Use this mode if you experience problems with parts of the picture that
have a similar color like the key (for example, a blue tie of the news-
reader while using a bluescreen).

Suppress FGD

Suppresses the area within the selected and adjusted mask.

Use this mode if objects accidentally extend into the bluescreen area
(for example, a microphone hanging down) and should be masked
out.

Patterns

Select the desired mask pattern from the Patterns list. This allows you to
adjust the mask approximately to the area to be masked in or out
(depending on Mask Mode).

Invert

Inverts the mask.

The parameter display fields in the lower part of the Parameter Edit Area
allow you to adjust the size and appearance of the mask.

Preview

Shows the modified signal on the Preview output.
