parameter

Scrub In Frame with statistics

Displays frame that has been defined by the In Frame parameter
with media file data overlaid on the output.

9

Scrub Out Frame with statistics

Displays frame that has been defined by the Out Frame
parameter with media file data overlaid on the output.

Scrubbing displays the selected frame of the composite output of the media server. While
scrubbing the In Frame, the frame selected by the In Frame coarse and fine channels will be
displayed. Likewise, scrubbing the Out Frame will display the frame selected by the Out Frame
coarse and fine channels. When the “with statistics” option is selected, the composite output
includes text data related to the selected frame. Remember that the In Frame and Out Frame
parameters are defined as a DMX value mapped to the percentage of the media file length, not
a specific frame.

Note:

If the Global Control Mode parameter = 255, a DMX value of 1-3 for the

Global Control parameter provides an alternate font color to enhance

statistics readability.
