Up-converter/re-sizing engine on every input. Should you need to use Standard Definition equipment in HD mode, just plug in. This is ideal for users making the transition to HD production.

OSD (On-screen Display)
Another new idea is to allow switcher settings to be displayed on a preview output so that configurations can easily be modified and status verified at a glance.

4/10/16 Split Multi Viewer

2 Picture-in-Picture
For box shots, over the shoulder shots and graphic display, there are two dedicated picture in picture channels that can compress any input from 1% to 25%. These are in addition to the keyer DVEs. Users can also Expand, Squeeze, Crop and add Borders with the dual Picture-in-picture mode. These effects can be assigned to user buttons so that fade-ins, fade-outs, slide-ins and slide-outs for picture in picture transitions can be operated by single button operations.
