MultiViewer
The MultiViewer allows you to view multiple video sources from a single output BNC. Video inputs or outputs on the switcher, including Program, Preview, and Media-Store channels, can be assigned to any box on the MultiViewer.
Both I/O MultiViewer and Video Processor MultiViewer are supported by the switcher. These MultiViewers differ in the video sources they have access to.
- I/O MultiViewer — all input BNCs and output BNCs 5-12 (5-14 in a Rotation (ROT) switcher mode).
- Video Processor MultiViewer — all input BNCs and all video bus outputs, source overlay, and used for ViewControl
Tip: The I/O MultiViewer can show you what is assigned to a specific output BNCs where the Video Processor MultiViewer can show you what is selected on a
specific bus. For example, the Video Processor MultiViewer can show you what is selected on ME 1 key 2, where the I/O MultiViewer can show you
the video that is being fed out of BNC 6.
A time-clock can be added as an overlay to the MultiViewer showing either system time or time code.
Keep the following in mind:
Keep the following in mind when working with a MultiViewer:
- I/O MultiViewer outputs are assigned to output BNCs 1-2.
- Video Processor MultiViewer outputs are assigned to output BNCs 3-4.
- Only the Video Processor MultiViewer can be used for ViewControl.
- You cannot view output BNCs 13-14 on the I/O MultiViewer in SD or HD mode, unless you are in a Rotation (ROT) switcher mode.
- Only the Video Processor MultiViewers (BNCs 3-4) can have audio from the mixer assigned to them.
- The layout is configured independently for each MultiViewer.
- Inputs are displayed with a red tally box when they are on-air. A green tally box is displayed when the input is selected on the Preset bus.
- When the switcher is operating in a standard-definition video format, the MultiViewer is shown in high-definition.
- All ancillary data is stripped from the MultiViewer outputs.
