Video: Generator Settings
The controls on the Video: Generator page of the Engineering Settings control window all
relate to video generated by OmniTek XR. This page is not available when the OmniTek
XR system does not include the Motion-Capture option.
Power-On Defaults
The Power-On Defaults option may be used to force the analog and serial outputs from
OmniTek XR into a chosen video format, within half of one second from power up of the
system, and therefore before the operating system has had time to load. The settings will
remain in force until the OmniTek XR application has initialized, when the program
settings will overwrite the power-on settings.
To use this feature, just click the button, and the current settings will be written into the
reprogrammable hardware on the OmniTek card.
Panning
By selecting Enable and a speed from 1 to 31, it is possible to have the image/sequence
scroll sideways continuously. Selecting Reverse lets you change direction. If you keep
Enable selected and drop the speed to 0, the image will stop scrolling and remain at its
current position. To return the image to the normal position, clear Enable.
Please note that one side of the image will drop one line during panning, since the image
in effect wraps around from the right hand edge onto the start of the next line on the left
hand edge.
Blanking and Ancillary Data Playout
The blanking and ancillary data played out may either be taken directly from the source or
taken from the internal generator.
Selecting From Internal Generator removes all the ancillary data packets from the
original source material.
To play out data such as time codes and teletext subtitles from an .rvf file, the option to
use blanking and ancillary data from the Source file must be selected. This is described in
more detail on page 76.
Note The option to use blanking and ancillary data from the Source Image is only available if
the Advanced option is present. If this option is not included, the blanking and ancillary
data can only be generated from the internal generator.
