DME Wipes
Chapter 1 MVS-8000 Functions
DME Wipes
A DME wipe is a wipe transition that uses a DME effect to change from one
video image to the next.
There are two types of DME wipe: those which can be selected for a normal
transition, and those which can be selected for an independent key transition.
For independent key transitions, see page 37.
Note
On the MVS-8000G, it is also possible to carry out a DME wipe on a key using
the resizer (see page 58).
Types of DME Wipe Pattern
The patterns used for a DME wipe fall into two broad classes.
Preset patterns: predetermined fixed patterns
User programmable DME patterns: patterns which you can create using
keyframe effects
DME wipe execution mode and pattern numbers that can be used
There are three DME wipe execution modes, depending on the number of
DME channels available: one-channel mode, two-channel mode and three-
channel mode. The pattern numbers that can be used in these modes are as
follows.
DME wipe pattern groups
The patterns used in DME wipes fall into the following groups.
For each group (excluding user programmable DMEs), for schematic patterns
and numbers, see “DME Wipe Pattern List” in Appendix (Volume 1) (page
566). The black part of the pattern represents the old video, and the white part
the new video, with the wipe taking place in the direction of the arrow.
