To Play a Video and Key Pair in Sync Using Device Links

The External Device Links menu is used to link devices so they can be con-
trolled together from the Machine Control subpanel. For example, two
DDR channels can be linked so they roll in sync, one playing the video
signal and the other playing the key.

When loading or cuing linked devices, load and cue the primary device
first. This also loads and cues the linked devices. Next, load and cue any
linked devices individually. It is also helpful to set a Mark in point on each
device so that when the primary device is cued, all devices cue up to the
appropriate frame for subsequent sync roll.

1.

Create a video clip and a key clip and set cue points so they are in sync.

2.

Create a device link in the External Device Links menu. The device that
will play the video clip is the primary device and the device for the key
signal is the linked device. Enable that link.

3.

Using the Machine Control subpanel, load the video clip on the
primary device. That clip will load and cue on both devices.

4.

Delegate the Machine Control subpanel to the linked device and load
the key clip. The key clip will cue on that device.
