To Set Media File Properties

or press Press HOME > More > Effects > Media
Store.

properties for into a channel.
3. Press On-Air Properties > Base.

the position of the media le onscreen.
Note: You cannot position any portion of an image
off-screen, as this may cause video errors. Full screen
images cannot have their position adjusted.
5. Press Unshaped or Shaped in the Video area to
set how the key and alpha are displayed.
6. If the switcher is in an interlaced video format, press
Frame, Swap, Field 1, or Field 2 in the Play

• Frame — display the entire video frame.
• Swap — swap eld 1 and eld 2.
• Field 1 — display only eld 1.

7. Press BT.601 (SD), BT.709 (HD), or BT.2020 in
the Color Mode area to select the color space, within
the YCrCb color model, that the media le will be

Note: Media files stored in a format other than BT.2020
will not display properly in BT.2020.
Note: Media items should be created in the same color
gamut and dynamic range that they are intended to be used
in on the switcher.
Tip: If you switch video formats between an HD and SD
production, and want to use the same media-store files for
both, you should select the correct color space for each
file, each time you change video formats.
8. In the Image Scale area, set whether the media le
is scaled to the current resolution of the switcher
(On), or not (Off).
Use this option if the media le you want to use is
of a different resolution than the switcher is
operating in.
