  • 1.  XPression Studio - Output Custom Matte/FIll

    Posted 08-07-2014 18:16
    Hey all,

    Hoping someone can answer this pretty quickly, I assume it's a simple explanation because I haven't had the ROSS training just yet. Now, we are trying to send a quad with a PNG texture over to a Black Magic framebuffer and back to a Black Magic control panel and for some reason it is not retaining the textured quad's original opacity when laid over video. Our technician tells me we could fix this with a different matte as he let me know we have a proper fill but not a proper matte coming out of the ROSS system. If any of this makes sense and think you can answer this question please let me know.

    Thanks,

    H

    Hi Hunter,

    This sounds like a hardware/softwware configuration issue. Is this is urgent, you should contact Ross Technical Support. Tech Support

    Are you taking the output of your XPression Prime and feeding it back into itself?

    We are not feeding back into the ROSS system, no.

    Are you using an XPression Prime? Does it have a BlackMagic Decklink card or a AJA Corvid?

    What device are you connecting the XPression output to? Do you have both the key and fill connected to device? Is the device capable of performing a linear (unshaped) key?
