UTILITY (AND DELEGATE)

8.1.1

Utility is a special purpose row, and offers additional capabilities, described next.


Making a selection on the Utility row assigns that source to all selected delegates.

The FX channel selection provides an auxiliary video stream which can serve in a variety
of ways. For example, it could supply the background scene in a Virtual Input, or be
assigned to an Overlay or DSK channel (Chapter 12.3).

Selecting the AUX OUT delegate allows direct selection of the Auxiliary Output video
stream, without requiring you to open Output Configuration.

Hold down Shift on the keyboard when clicking the Utility row buttons on the Live
Desktop
as listed below to access extended AUX OUT selections:

o 1-8 -> VI Frame Buffers 1-8
o Net 1 -> Look Ahead Preview
o Net 2 -> Program
o DDR 1 -> Program (Clean)
o DDR2 -> FX

Selecting a DSK (1 or 2) delegate allows direct selection of the associated DSK source.

The function of the Utility row is governed by the nearby Utility
Delegate
button selection(s).

Click a single delegate button, or press the Ctrl key while clicking to
dedicate the Utility row to selecting the source for the
corresponding item(s) – FX, AUX OUT, DSK 1 or DSK 2.
