Operating Your <strong>ATEM</strong> Switcher<br />

Sharing DVE resources<br />

The one DVE channel available in the switcher can be used to perform DVE transitions or it can be used<br />

in an upstream keyer. When you select a DVE transition, if the DVE is used elsewhere in the system, the<br />

DVE transition type will not be available and, on the broadcast panel, a DVE unavailable message will be<br />

displayed. In order to use the graphic wipe transition you must free the DVE from where it is currently used.<br />

Verify that the upstream keys currently on program or preview are not DVE keys and do not have fly key<br />

enabled. To free DVE from the upstream keyer, change the key type to anything other than DVE or disable<br />

fly key. The DVE will be released and therefore available for use as a graphic wipe.<br />

Graphic wipe images<br />

The graphic wipe feature requires a static or animated graphic that is used as a moving border for a<br />

horizontal wipe. This graphic should be a vertical ‘banner’ type graphic that is no more than 25% of the total<br />

screen width.<br />

Graphic wipe screen width requirements<br />

1080i If the switcher is operating at 1080i then the graphic should be no wider than 480<br />

pixels.<br />

720p If the switcher is operating at 720p than the graphic should be no wider than 320<br />

pixels.<br />

SD<br />

If the switcher is operating in Standard Definition then the graphic then the<br />

graphic should be no wider then 180 pixels.
