Sample  
As the chroma key, a key signal is created using a specific  
hue as a reference.  
For instance, the key signal is created by detecting the color  
of the background from the image of a person standing in  
front of a specific background color, and another background  
is combined.  
[6] ChromaKey Menu  
2. Sample  
Press the OSD/TIME dial to sample the hue components of  
the area selected by the sample marker.  
This unit uses an area system whose area is designated  
by a rectangular frame. The result of averaging the colors  
of the pixels inside that area is used as the chroma key  
reference color (key reference), and the maximum deviation  
from the average value is used as the radius of the chroma  
key oval.  
ꢂꢁ When sampling is completed, the image obtained by  
combining the chroma key with the PVW image is output.  
(Set the PVW function of the key to ON.)  
ꢂꢁ Sampling can be initiated without menu operations by  
using the USER buttons and OSD/TIME dial.  
Chroma keys faithful to the chroma space sample (area  
in the figure) can be generated.

3-4-5. Effect dissolve  
If an SD format image is used as the PinP material when  
the system is operating in an HD mode, images can be  
combined in the Dot by Dot mode (actual size images).  
In this mode, the SD format images are not up-converted so  
image deterioration can be prevented.  
This function enables one effect to be switched to another  
smoothly when the data in the preset memory where the  
PinP image settings were registered is called using the  
USER buttons.

2. Name Type  
An up-converter (UC) function is provided for the SDI-IN3  
and SDI-IN4 connectors so “Normal”, “UC”, “DbyD” or  
“AUTO” can be set for these connectors.  
These items are for setting the type used when providing  
material names for the signals which are input to each  
connector.  
Default:  
The mode is set for each connector only when HD has been  
selected as the system format setting.  
When SD has been selected for the system format, “Normal”  
is always set as the mode.  
The default settings (INPUT1 to INPUT5) are used.  
Preset:  
The material names provided ahead of time are used.  
The names are set using the “Name” item.  
User:  
Normal:  
The input signals in conformity with the system format  
take effect.  
DbyD:  
A material name is set using up to 10 characters.  
The actual material names are set using the “Name”  
item.  
When SD signals with the same frame rate as the  
system format have been input, they are input on a dot  
by dot (equal size) basis with no up-conversion.  
In this mode, there is minimal deterioration in the  
image quality and, as such, the mode is used to  
combine SD format materials using the PinP function.  
This mode can be set only when 1080i is used as  
the system format.  
Cam Name:  
When an IP connection is established with the  
AW-RP50, the remote camera names set by the  
AW-RP50 are set as the material names.  
UC:  
When SD signals with the same frame as the system  
format have been input, they are up-converted.  
Auto:  
Input signals in conformity with the system format take  
effect.  
Furthermore, if SD signals with the same frame rate  
as the system format are input when HD is selected as  
the system format, they are up-converted.  
In the Auto mode, the images may be disturbed  
when the input signals are switched.
