Barco XHD Printer User Manual


 
When it is attached to a Player Output, a Display also indicates the name of that Player
and the index of the output to which it is connected. It is also possible to access the
color correction properties of the Display.
Specifications
Technical information related to the model, resolution, orientation, attached Player,
LED pixel pitch, and screen brightness is displayed in the Specifications section of the
Properties pane. This information is typically entered in the Projection Study layout
during the early stages of a project.
Once a display has been attached to a Player, the name of that Player and the output
index of the attached display are also shown in this section.
Test Pattern
The Test Pattern section of the Properties pane has an Image property that can be used
to replace the Display's output with a predefined image. This can be helpful to ensure
that your physical displays' colors match or to quickly identify a physical projector on
site.
Output Correction
The following properties can be modified in the Output Correction section of the
Properties pane.
Object Mask (Projectors only): The Object Mask field provides a list of 3D objects that
can be used as masks for this projector. This is useful if you want a projector to never
project onto specific objects in your scene. The objects are always displayed in black.
PNG Mask:The PNG Mask field shows the file nameof an image that can bedisplayed
as an overlay over the displayed content. This image must contain an alpha channel,
and therefore be in an image format that allows it, in this case PNG. A PNG mask is
useful for masking specific regions of content that are not 3D objects, or applying final
on-site feathering ofovershooting regions. This image must be drag-and-dropped from
the Medias pane (as opposed to from Windows explorer), which can be shown (or hid-
den) by using a button next to this control.
Remap Image (Projectorsonly): ARemap Image allows per-Projector pixelremapping.
This texture contains information for where each pixel is supposed to be in the final
image.(Red andgreen stand forX andY positionsin thedestination image.).This feature
allows youto perform advancedprojector-specificadjustments thatare impossiblewith
a PNG mask or regular Projector calibration. This image must be drag and dropped
from the Medias pane (as opposed to from Windows explorer), which can be shown
(or hidden) by using a button next to this control.
Dimmer: Dimmer allows you to adjust the value of the dimmer, between 0.0 (all black)
and 1.0 (no dimmer), for the Display.
Min Input: This is a minimum value to clamp the displayed color channels.
