Configuring V-Chip Monitors
A V-chip monitor provides a visual indication of the V-chip rating from the CC (608)
metadata in an SD video signal, or from the CC (608) legacy caption data when such data is
present within an HD video signal.
To add a V-chip monitor to a layout
1 Click the V-chip monitor button ( ) on the toolbar, click the layout, and then move or
resize the monitor as needed.
You may choose to layer this monitor on top of the video window within a composite.
See Working with Composite Monitors on page 255, for instructions on how to add
elements to a composite.
2In the Properties pane, set the transparency attribute to the appropriate value for your
purposes, by clicking the V-chip transparency box, and then using the slider or typing
the desired value directly into the box.
3 If you wish to preview the logo associated with a specific V-chip rating, select it from
the V-chip rating preview list. For example:
4 Make the appropriate assignments (see Assigning Logical Sources or Monitor Wall
Destinations to Monitors, on page 209), and select the desired video level if necessary.
Note: Extraction of CC (608) captions and CC (608) legacy captions is
available with the Extraction of CC, Subtitling and XDS metadata option
(CC/XDS).
Note: As its name implies, the V-chip rating preview is only a preview, and
its value is not saved with the layout.
