AVR8414 Operation Manual – Rev O
Video Passthrough
The user can select the active passthrough video channel (the input video displayed on both
HD and SD video outputs) by:
• Double tapping (in quick succession) the front panel FF or REW keys (if playback is not
active).
• Selecting or unselecting a video source on the front panel Line Select.
Jogging and Event Marker Skip Mode
The default action of the FFWD and RWD buttons during playback is to fast forward or rewind
video at 10x, 20x, or 50x speeds. These buttons may also be used to skip between video file
event markers. Holding the FFWD or RWD button for 3 seconds toggles between normal fast-
forward/rewind functionality and event marker navigation. A message appears on the front
panel stating EVENT MODE ENABLED or FFW/RWD MODE ENABLED to indicate the current
mode.
During playback, the OSD displays a horizontal gray progress bar to track events and current
video location using a series of full- and half-height colored markers (Figure 6).
The Jog feature of the AVR8414 allows users to advance video by spinning the encoder knob,
which marks the current video and advances the playback. The playback progress bar marks
up to 5 past locations with white vertical lines, with the most recent location appearing as a
full-height line. The last live video location appears as a full-height green line, and the current
video location is indicated by a full-height black line. Any event markers appear on the
progress bar as a half-height black line.
In Event Marker Skip mode, pressing the FF button on the front of the AVR8414 skips to a
point in the video 4-6 seconds before the next event marker. This is to provide a buffer against
video distortion if the video encoder is heavily burdened. Pressing the FF button repeatedly, in
quick succession, results in one skip per button press and advances the video quickly through
event markers.
Figure 6 - OSD Display Progress Bar
The AVR8414 shows event markers at 1% resolution on the playback progress bar, so
the OSD progress bar can show a maximum of 100 visual markers if the events are at
equal intervals. Marked events located within 1/100
th
of the total video runtime from
each other appear in the progress bar as a single event mark.
