 NOTE
The back matte settings are saved with the menu setting
values ([P
b ], [P r ], and [Y]) for each color.
(However, if [PRESET] is selected in the [POWER] submenu of
the [SETUP] menu, the settings are reset to the factory default
settings when the unit is restarted.)
Outputting Color Bars
[COLOR BAR]
To output color bars as internal video, select [COLOR BAR]
of the [INT VIDEO] menu using the rotary 1 control.
Using Still Pictures or Movies as
Internal Video [MEMORY]
In addition to using the back matte video ( page 29) and
color bar output ( the previous section) built in this unit, it
is possible to store external video input sources in internal
memory and create still pictures and movies.
Created still pictures and movies are saved with one-
frame video as one page. The number of pages (frames)
available for saving a created picture or movie varies with
the video format ( page 26) for the video input.
Format Max. pages (number of frames)
480i 30
576i 30
720p 14
1080i 6
However, if a title created as a title key or downstream
key is saved as a page, a reduced number of pages are
available for saving the still picture or movie.
The page count ratio for the title and still picture or movie
can be changed from the [MEMORY] submenu of the
[SETUP] menu ( page Vol.2-27).
Use the [MEMORY] submenu of the [INT VIDEO] menu to
create and display still pictures and movies.
If a still picture is created, “ST (STILL)” and the number of
pages are displayed in the internal video display area in the
upper portion of the Setting screen. If a movie is created,
“MV (MOVIE)” and the number of pages are displayed.
Relationship between Internal Video Save
and Internal Memory
When internal video is saved, the [MEMORY] submenu of
the [SETUP] menu is used to set the following to save the
video in internal memory.
PAGE: First page to save •
FRAME: No. of pages to save •
If the number of saved pages is 1 (“FRAME” is set to 1),
the video is saved as a still picture. If the number of saved
pages is 2 or more (“FRRAME” is set to 2 or more), the
video is saved as a movie.
Both a still picture and a movie can be saved in internal
memory. In this case, however, the total of saved pages
must be equal to or less than the maximum number of
frames.
For example, if the memory size (the number of frames)
assigned for internal video is set to 4 in the [MEMORY]
submenu of the [SETUP] menu, four still pictures can
be saved in memory when a still picture (FRAME: 1) is
created; only one movie can be saved in memory when a
movie consisting of four pages (FRAME: 4) is created.
Example of Video Save in Internal Memory of Maximum
8 Frames
[PAGE]=1
[FRAME]=2
[PAGE]=3
[FRAME]=3
[PAGE]=6
[FRAME]=1
[PAGE]=7
[FRAME]=1

 NOTE
If video is saved in the memory areas overlapping those in
which other video is already saved, the overlapping areas
are overwritten by new data and the remaining areas for the
previous video are cleared and filled with black image.
Before new video save (currently saved video of PAGE: 1 and
FRAME: 5)
After new video save (PAGE: 3 and FRAME: 5)
