Basics of Video Switching
In video switching, one input video is switched to another, then the final
program video is output from the PGM output connector. Composition of the
images is also available.
This section describes the most basic switching functions. See the relevant
sections for details on switching and composing operations.
Before starting, set up the switcher referring to “Basic Setups for the Switcher”
in Chapter 3 (page 50).
Switching with a cut
This is the most basic and commonly used type of switching. The image is
switched instantaneously from A to B.
For details, see “Switching the Video with a Cut” on page 66.
Switching with a transition effect
In a transition effect, the image is gradually switched from one video to another
by applying an effect.
With a wipe, for example, the program output video is gradually switched as if
the next video were wiping out the current video across the screen.
Example of a wipe
For details, see “Switching the Video with an Effect (Transition Effect)” on
