AUTOCUT

At this point we need to explain the AUTOCUT functionality
It is an unique automated switching feature of the CONNECTED CAM STUDIO production SW inherently
connected with Media and Playlists playback. It allows you to select a Camera, which will be switched to
Live PGM after a Media File or Playlist playback (further: “M/PL”) reached its end.

Procedure to operate:

1. When a M/PL is switched to Live PGM a darkened area = AUTOCUT SWITCH appears in the lower part of
all Live Camera Monitors.

2. Tap/click on any of them, to activate it.
After the M/PL reaches its end a camera with the active AUTOCUT switch is automatically switched
to Live PGM.
By default, when a M/PL is switched to Live PGM, the AUTOCUT SWITCH of a camera is activated,
that was last in live PGM, before the M/PL was played.

Tap/click above the AUTOCUT SWITCH inside the Live Camera Monitor will terminate the AUTOCUT
function and normally switch that camera to Live PGM as usual.

A COUNTDOWN TIMER inside the AUTOCUT button indicates the remaining time of the M/PL.
If a M/PL is set to loop, the countdown timer is showing the remaining time of the M/PL currently playing.

NOTE: By default, the AUTOCUT SWITCH of that camera is activated, which was live in PGM before the

Replay was switched.

WIPES

Short Lead-In / Lead Out animations used in the Replay system as transition to enter and exit the Replay.
The users can create these animations themselves to enhance the visual appeal of their productions. It is
a well accepted, unobtrusive way to introduce commercial content, sponsor logos etc. to the production
which can become a source of extra revenue for the production. Exact Wipes usage statistics are provided
for monetizing purposes.

KM-IP4100

NOTE:

A choice of a single wipe, a wipe sequence
or a random shue mode can be set for the
use of Replay Wipes.
Wipes format:
FLV animations with transparency.

The switch to and from a replay is executed
1 sec. after the wipe start exactly.
To cover the switch to a replay it is best
practice to create an animation with a full
frame graphic at 1 sec.
A detailed tutorial on Wipes construction is
available at this link:
http://support.streamstar.com/759260­Replay-Wipes---Usage-and-Settings

NOTE: By default, wipes are used when entering and exiting the replay system only.

When switching from replay to another replay a 10 frames crossfade is used.
The user can override this setting by turning the functionality o in Replay settings.

CG OBJECT CONSTRUCTION

All CG objects are constructed from separately controlled layers. Depending on the type the CG Object
will have dierent layers that need to be setup.
All CG Objects contain a GRAPHIC BACKGROUND layer plus several other - either editable or dynamic text
layers that are positioned on top of the background layer.
All layers are combined to create a composite CG Objects that can be used in your productions.

CG PARAMETERS EDITING

Tap the CG PARAMETERS EDITOR button of any CG Object in the CG list that you wish to edit.
It provides access to all controls to setup the CG Object for use in your productions.
The CG Editor GUI is divided into TABS containing all controls to setup the parameters of all

• BACKGROUND Layer

Contains the controls to setup the background graphic for all the other TEXT layers placed above.
Supported file formats are: - .FLV for animated backgrounds (with transparency support)

- .PNG for static graphics (with transparency support)

• TEXT and CRAWL Layer

Allows to type/paste/edit the text content and control its parameters.

• DYNAMIC TEXT Layer

Used in the Timer/Score CG Objects only. Its content is controlled by a LIVE GAME controller that allows
to increase the score, the game period or it is a running timer measuring the time of the game.

BACKGROUND Layer parameters setup

• CHOSE BACKGROUND FILE - select a graphics file from the Windows OS

• CLEAR - clears the selection of a background file

• X-POS, Y-POS - position the graphics file using the coordinates controls

• LOOP - loop on/o for the graphic/animation file

• SCALE, CROSSFADE - set respective parameters for the BACKGROUND layer

• DURATION - determines the time duration for the file to be displayed

NOTE:

Set the Duration to 999 when you want the file to loop indefinitely.

It determines the overall time the background file is displayed also when the LOOP is ON.

• Tap/click the PREVIEW monitor to preview the modified CG Object

• SAVE - saves all changes and exits the editor -> go back to the list of CG items.

Page 31

TEXT Layer parameters setup

• Edit/Type the text content in the text field

• Format the text using the provided controls - Font, Size, Line Spacing, Style, Opacity, Alignment
in a usual text editor way.

• Setup the text position using the X-POS, Y-POS, Text Block Width, Text Block Height properties

• Setup the text animation using the In-Time, Out-Time, Crossfade properties

• The LAYER OFF, CANCEL, APPLY and SAVE buttons function the same way as described earlier.

NOTE:

X/Y POSITION parameters define the coordinates of the TOP LEFT corner of the text block within the video frame.
The TEXT BLOCK WIDTH and HEIGHT parameters define the width and height of the whole text block calculated from
the X/Y coordinate. (E.g.: If the X coordinate =0 and TEXT BLOCK WIDTH = 1920 px it means the text block is set to
the full width of the frame)

CRAWL Text Layer parameters setup

The procedure is identical to editing a regular text layer with a few additional settings:

TIMER/SCORE CG Objects

This type of CG Object allows you to create live sports graphics dynamically controlled
via the TIME/SCORE CONTROLLER. It is revealed via the [0:0] tab in the SA MENU
and/or the TIMING OPTIONS Tab found in the CG Tab of the CMA Left Side Menu.

The controller is displayed within the SA (Settings Area) to allow simultaneous operation of the live game
graphics controls along with operating other functionalities of the SW.

The controller oers SCORE and a GAME TIME controls with various options.
Detailed description is provided in the TIMING OPTIONS TAB section on the next page.

TIMER/SCORE CG Object - Layers Setup

All TIMER/SCORE CG Layers are setup in exactly the same way as the layers in a regular TEXT CG with the
dierence that there are no input fields for the dynamically or automatically triggered text fields.
The default values for those are displayed when setting up to allow for positioning and formatting. The
actual values will be controlled during the live game using the TIME/SCORE CONTROLLER described above.

TIMER/SCORE CG Layers:
BACKGROUND - a graphics file used as background for all the text layers placed above it
TEAM HOME and TEAM AWAY - regular text layers to be filled in by user
SCORE HOME and SCORE AWAY - dynamic layers to indicate the current score
DELIMITER - regular text layer to be used as a separator between the score indicator digits
PERIOD - automatic layer indicating the current game period
CLOCK - automatic layer - running timer display

Combining these elements allows the creation of eective live sports graphics. Examples are provided with
the installation of CONNECTED CAM STUDIO free to be used in your productions. Custom graphics can be
used by selecting your own graphic for the background layer and setting up text layers on top.

CG PANE - TIMING OPTIONS TAB

This is where the dynamic layers data output logic is setup. The output of the TIMER/SCORE CG Object
may vary significantly depending on how the various parameters in this pane are set. Please read this sec­tion carefully and familiarize yourself with all the settings and their eects on the display of the system to
avoid unexpected or confusing results. Once you understand it thoroughly it will serve you well.

CLOCK Parameters Setup

1. START TIME - use the +/- buttons to set the starting time for the time counter
or type a time value in the center field manually.
This will be the time value the timer will START at match beginning.

NOTE:

controller and the CG display until you press the SET TIMER button described
further down.

Inserting a value here will not yet aect the actual state of the counter in the

2. COUNTING - choose a time counting method. [ + ] counting UP ... [ - ] counting DOWN

NOTE: Be aware that if the COUNTING Method is set to [ - ] DOWN, the Start Time field needs to be

set to a value allowing a Time Countdown to actually take place!

3. TIME DISPLAY - choose whether the time counter is to display time per MATCH or per GAME PART

NOTE: Be aware that this parameter setting will have dramatic eects on the actual time displayed.

The displayed time will be aected by the Counting Method and the Start Time.
If the Counting method is set to [ - ] Countdown, and Time Display is set to PER MATCH
the Start Time field needs to be set to a value that covers the entire match.
If the Time Display is set to PER GAME PART hence the Start Time field needs to be set
to the duration of a Game Part. The clock has to be stopped manually after each game part.

4. SET TIMER - SET TIMER red button will actually insert the time value in the START TIMER field into
the LIVE TIME COUNTER in the CONTROLLER and in the CG Output.

- CANCEL will undo changes in the Start Time Field to a previously set value which was
confirmed by the SET TIMER button.

5. RESET TIME - will instantly reset the TIME value in the Controller as well as in the CG Output to the
value specified in the Start Time field of the Clock setting.
It will also STOP the clock and timer display.

GAME PARTS Parameters Setup

1. GAME PART - use the +/- buttons to set the Number of Game Parts in the game.

NOTE:

This value needs to be set if you wish to count time by Game Parts.

2. GAME PART TIME - use the +/- buttons to set the Duration of an individual Game Part
alternatively you can type in the numeric value directly

NOTE:

The clock has to be stopped after the game part. When it is started again at the beginning of
a new Game Part it will start counting the set Game Part Time again regardless of when it
was stopped - thus allowing to count the time of a new Game Part from its start.

This value needs to be set if the Time Display Clock parameter is set to Game PART.

NOTE: 1. All faders have integrated Level and Peaking indicators

2. Basic knowledge of audio mixer operation is required. It is beyond the scope of this manual to
explain Audio Mixer board operational procedures.

AUDIO FOLLOW VIDEO

The functionality makes the audio mixer a slave to the video mixer.
When the functionality is active (red icon at bottom left of the input fader)
switching to another camera will also switch the audio to that channel.
If the AFV button is OFF (grey) the audio of the input is mixed to the Program
audio regardless of switching cameras.

Example of a practical would be to have one camera AFV O to capture the ambi­ance audio that always goes out to PGM and the rest of the cameras have AFV On
so the audio of those cameras is switched with switching cameras.
