  • 1.  Killing the alpha channel in Xpression Live

    I have Xpression Live connected to a Carbonite Black Solo switcher so that I can push graphics to M1, M2, M3 and M4. Is there a way to kill the alpha channel on a fullscreen so that when it sends to M1 it sends nothing to M3 (these two channels are paired to show transparency)?

    I'm responding to boost this.

    Full screen graphics don't need an alpha channel, and I would love to allocate a media store to something else, like a frame sync for the MP4 video playout.

    So you could chose to setup RossLinq Connections to Channels 3 and 4 of the Solo. Then you send the Full Screen Graphics to 3 and 4. That will get you fill only.

    You can also send to say Channel 1 first then send to Channel 3 to get 2 full screen fills.

    On your comment about the Clip Player and a MS FS -- Use Channel 3 or Channel 4 for the Media Store. Then send GFX to Channel 1(if using 3) or 2 (if using 4). The clip player will run fine and now you won't have an alpha channel for that Media Store.
