8.2.3 FRAME SYNC
FIGURE 133 (TRICASTER 8000)
TriCaster internal Frame Sync is enabled for all sources by default, allowing you to
work with a wide array of potential video sources without concerns about video
timing. For TriCaster 8000 (only), it is possible to ensure the very lowest possible
throughput latency for genlocked sources by disabling Frame Sync.
Sources with Frame Sync disabled must be genlocked, and further, must be ‘in phase’
(within 180° of the current switcher output); otherwise, video from the source will
simply not be visible.
In practice, then, disable Frame Sync for your genlocked sources, adjust the Phase
setting (see Section 8.1.2) until video is displayed and you should be all set.
Note: If Frame Sync is enabled or disabled for one source in a ‘Fill + Alpha’ input pair, the
Frame Sync setting for the corresponding input channel is automatically updated to match.
