R ENDERER The following fields specifies which renderer will be used to produce and
insert the graphics and video clips for output.
VMR9: Specifies that the VMR9 (Video Mixing Renderer 9) will be used for
clip playback. This is the default renderer.
P OOL S IZE : Only available when VMR9 is selected as the renderer. Pool
Size specifies the number of VMR9s that are preallocated at the start up of
the application. The default value of -1 disables the preallocation.
C USTOM : Specifies that the Vertigo hardware device’s own video renderer
will be used for clip playback.
P IXEL S HADER : Only available when CUSTOM is selected as the renderer.
Selecting Pixel Shader allows pixel color conversion to be done on the
Vertigo device’s GPU. When Pixel Shader is not selected, pixel color
conversion is performed on the host computer.
D E I NTERLACING The renderers processing format is interlaced, but all of the other functions
are performed in progressive.
E NABLED : The Vertigo device will deinterlace clips using the best method
available. This is the default setting.
F ORCED S OFTWARE : The Vertigo device will use the Vertigo’s own
deinterlacing algorithm.
