be selected. You can confirm your selection
by clicking on OK.

If you click on the Save button, the Archive
PIP window appears. In the upper area you
see the PIPs that have already been saved
and in the lower area you see a yellow line
that you can select. Clicking on it will open
the on-screen keyboard and you can give
your PIP a name. After clicking on OK, the
name appears in the upper area of the win-
dow. Please note that when saving a double
PIP, only the settings for the active PIP (i.e.
the selected one in the foreground) are
saved.

If you click on Delete, the Delete PIP window
appears. In the upper area of this window
you see a list of saved PIPs. Initially the OK
button is blocked (i.e. it is gray and cannot be
selected) even if a saved PIP appears se-
lected. This is a security measure to prevent
PIPs from being accidentally deleted. Select
the PIP that you want to delete (even if it is
already highlighted in gray) and then click on
the now active (yellow) OK button to delete it.

The Cancel button can be used to close the
Archive window even if you have not carried
out any actions in the window.

10.) Effect: If you click on the Effect button,
the Effect window appears.

You will first see the two IN and OUT buttons.
The button that you click on will turn blue and
will therefore be activated.

An activated IN button means that any fur-
ther settings you configure will affect the
PIP’s fade-in. An active OUT button will
cause any settings changes to be applied to
the fade-out.

Under Effect you have the option of choosing
the type of fade-in or fade-out. The following
twelve effects can be selected: Hard Cut,
Fade, Zoom, Move Left, Move Left/Up, Move
UP, Move Up/Right, Move Right, Move Right/
Down, Move Down, Move Down/Left, Cus-
tom. The names of the first eleven settings
options indicate what they do. The Custom
setting means you can set your own values.
If you selected one of the other effects and
subsequently edit the effect, this will auto-
matically cause the settings for the Custom
effect to be changed as well.
