Using this built-in method enables you to switch between a Live Signal and the playout of a Video without the need of a Video router. You can also add Graphics to the Live Signal without the need of a second Video device.

Using this built-in method means that the Video card synchronizes to the incoming Video so make sure that there is always an incoming Video signal and that it is stable. In order to stabilize the signal in advance (i.e. before it is sent to the Video card input) you must use a frame synchronizer. Suited frame synchronizers can be found on the AJA Website or you can also use a BMD ATEM switcher.

Configuration

  1. Connect the Live Signal to the first SDI Video input.

  2. Press cmd - alt-, in Just Control, to open the Just Control Configuration window and select one of the available Buffered in methods.

  • default black: Black will be played out in case nothing is playing in the timeline of the UI.

  • default pass-through: The connected signal will be played out in case nothing is playing in the timeline of the UI.
