Load Live Button

The L

OAD

L

IVE

B

UTTON

object allows you to load a specific Fill and Key

video input signal (associated with the Imagestore, LGK and DSK devices)
to the specified keyer.

In Production mode, when the Load Live Button is clicked the signal
specified in the object’s I

NPUT

property is loaded onto the specified keyer.

Once selected, the media is loaded onto the specified keyer. If the keyer
is up, then the video feed is immediately taken to air. If the keyer is down,
you must use another object, like the F

ADE

DSK

BUTTON

, or actions

triggered by the O

N

L

OAD

event to take the video feed to air.

When adding a Load Live Button object, we suggest that you also add a

K

I

T

HUMBNAIL

object to display a proxy image input video

source that is loaded by the Load Live Button when in Production mode.

The DSK C

G

AIN

T

RANSPARENCY

object produces a slider or an Up

Down box that allows operators to set either the clip, gain or transparency
value for the keyed signal.
The DSK Clip Gain Transparency object’s S

LIDER

A

PPEARANCE

property

determines if the control is a slider (T

RUE

) or an Up Down box (F

ALSE

). The

object’s O

RIENTATION

property determines whether the slider is horizontal

or vertical.
You must instantiate the control by selecting one of the following in the
object’s CGT

TYPE

property:

C

LIP

: The level under which the key signal is forced to black (64 -

940).

G

AIN

: Amplifies the signal forcing grey levels to approach white (64-

940).

T

RANSPARENCY

: Affects the luminance of the key and therefore the

amount of background allowed in the output (0 - 512).
