AutoFlags
As described in previous sections all Broadcast Pix systems can mix and match
4:3 sources with 16:9 sources each with their own unique and custom aspect
ratios, without any additional delay. Traditionally a 4:3 source in a 16:9 production
will show black pillar boxes on the left and right of the screen. With AutoFlags, the
black sides can now be replaced with a custom image. This image could be as
simple as station call letters, to a more complex graphic with the station logo.
AutoFlags uses the same techniques of assigning a virtual background, as
described in the previous section.

background to a Virtual Angle, as described in
the previous section.
2.

folder in the directory C:graphics\Virtual Sets.
