Digital Effects Library

The DPM effect library is provided to give users examples of the capabili-
ties of the internal DPM as well as a starting point to create own effects.

The library is in 2 sections:

C1fx is the section which uses only DPM channel 1 on P-P and ME1.
This section uses 3D-planar transformations and can be easily used by
owners of systems which do not have 4 DPM channels per M/E.

C4fx is the section which uses up to 4 DPM channels per effect and uses
the SpecFX: Kurl™ and Splits/Mirrors effects. This section will only
show results for owners of fully loaded Kayak HD™ switchers.

Each effect is built in 2 parts: 1 to introduce a picture and the 2

nd

to remove

the picture. This enables users to work live with the DPM recall area of the
Kayak HD™ and also to integrate effects easily into E-MEM™ timelines.

All effects were built using V664.2 software.

The effects will not replay correctly, if at all, using earlier software ver-
sions.

The effects were built for 4:3 aspect ratio.

The effects can be used in 625/50 and 525/60 standard.

Configuration Notes for DPM

In the

Config / E-Box - DPM

settings area of your switcher are very important

settings which affect the edges of pictures in DPM channels. If you use
sources which have been digitally sourced you should ensure that the pro-
duction crop settings for 4:3 are set to:

Top = 3.05

Left = -4.16

Right = 4.16

Bottom = -3.05.

These figures will ensure the correct viewing of the effects in this package.
