2.6.18 BUFFERS
The Buffers module provides quick review and management of TriCaster’s internal media buffer system, and
is in reality a combined multiview player and asset management tool fully supported by TriCaster’s Macro
system.
FIGURE 2-10 (TRICASTER 8000 SHOWN)
Buffers can be applied in any video channel, including all main Switcher and M/E rows, or as overlays in the
numerous DSK and KEY channels. Buffer ‘slots’ can contain *animated effects (compiled from your own clips
using the supplied Animation Store Creator application), still graphics or title pages, all with full alpha
channel support (the number of buffer slots supporting animation varies by model).
Animated buffers come in two types, and either loop endlessly (perfect for bugs, station IDs, etc.) or ‘auto-
run’ once when displayed. Buffer effects are resident in reserved Switcher Memory, making it possible to use
them all at once without tying up Media Players. Thus Buffers effectively substitute for many additional DDRs.
In addition, each Buffer slot has its own set of convenient presets.
