Layering Control

The C2-2855 can control layering of Logos, Primary &
Background video and a Color Field. This adds great
flexibility to simple control of layering and external
referencing. The Primary Layer can have Scaling,
Keying and Aspect Ratio Correction (ARC) applied.

The Color Field is a user defined RGB
color that is always behind the other
layers. It is always present but is hidden
if other layers are selected full frame.

Background Layer can be any input. This layer
can have Aspect Ratio Correction applied.

Logos can be imported using the Control
Software. Logos are always in front of
other layers. They can be positioned, keyed
and their opacity can be changed.
They cannot be scaled.

Primary Layer can be any input or a still image
store picture. This layer can be scaled, keyed
and have Aspect Ratio Correction applied.
