Video Operations
Here we explain the procedure for compositing video using “PinP
1.” You can also composite video using the same procedure using
“PinP 2.”
1 . Press a Cross-point A or B [1]–[8] button to select
the video you want to make the background video.
2 . Press the [MODE] button to select “PinP1 SOURCE.”
3 . Press a PinP SOURCE [1]–[8] button to select the
video you want to make the inset screen.
4 . Press the PinP 1 [PVW] button to preview-output
the video of the inset screen.
The PinP 1 [PVW] button lights up in green and the inset screen
appears in the PVW section of the monitor, allowing you to check
the inset screen’s location and size.
At this stage, the final output has not yet been changed.
5 . Use the PinP 1 [POSITION H] and [POSITION V] knobs
to adjust the display position of the inset screen.
