About the Frame Simulator and Macro Editing/Building
Using a correctly configured Frame Simulator and Show file, you will be assured that
macros will properly reference sources and source names, as well as the expected durations
for the required line and frame rate.
You can use the Frame Simulator included with the GV Switcher software to edit and create
macros offline and save them to a USB Memory Stick or other storage device making them
portable for use in future shows.
To configure, operate, and understand more about the Frame Simulator, open and follow
the instructions in the Readme.txt file in the Frame Simulator directory (default).
The GV Switcher Frame Simulator will be installed automatically in the Grass Valley
directory, during the software installation (see the Release Notes for your switcher model)
for a standalone PC. In order to run the Frame Simulator properly, the line rate will have to
be configured once (as it affects all transition, timeline, and macro pause durations) and the
main.exe file will need to be running simultaneously with the Menu on PC.
Set the Line Rate for the Frame Simulator
Set the line rate in the Eng Setup, Video Settings menu prior to editing or building macros
using the Frame Simulator. This will prevent video settings errors when macros are
transfered from disk to a GV K-Frame XP system.
1 Select
Eng Setup, Video Settings.
2 Select the line rate from the Frame Operating Mode pane.
