SPEED

10.2.5

Figure 179

The Speed control is only found in the DDR. The DDR supports variable speed playback between
25% and 400% of the normal rate (100%). Speed can even be adjusted during playback.

Note that certain highly compressed video file formats cannot successfully be played back at
rates beyond 200%, even though Speed value is set to a higher value. As is common for numeric
input controls in TriCaster, drag left or right to adjust the Speed value, or click the slider to access
a direct entry field allowing you to type a value using the keyboard.

Hint: Press Shift while double-clicking Speed to quickly reset to the 100% default.

10.3 FRAME BUFFERS

TriCaster’s Frame Buffer system provides a very
convenient and important alternative source
system for Virtual Inputs (including their
associated Overlay channels) and the Switcher’s
two primary Overlay channels.

Graphics (i.e., a title page or image file) assigned
to Frame Buffers serve independently from Media
Players
.

These sources are represented by the FRM BFR button on all three Switcher rows (thus available
to DSK 1 and 2, FX, Program and Preview, plus dedicated to each Virtual Input.
