  • 1.  Tessera - Map to a long banner

    Hi there!

    Trying to set up the output regions with Tessera here, and mostly it works just fine.
    Got the main screen setup and smaller boards done.

    However, we have a long banner, that is wider than 1920 wide (2600 x 208), and I know, as I have seen demos, that I can map the first 1920 to one part of the output, and the remaining 680 to another part of the output. But I just cant wrap my head around HOW?! 
    I cant find a way to "split" a region in the region layout editor... Anyone care to shed some light?

    Hi Aleksander,

    First step is creating a scene that matches the dimensions of the board and source in your region map that matches that as well.  So a scene that 2600x208 and a source in the region map that is 2600x208.

    The next step is dependent on the video processor feeding that display and how it is expecting to receive the image.  In most scenarios the processor is expecting striped content but the dimensions of the stripes can vary depending on the physical construction of the video board.  assuming the processor is expecting one 1920 x 208 stripe then a 960 x 208 stripe below, you would need to create two regions within the source you created in step 1.  One region that is 1920 wide and another region that is 960 wide these two regions need to placed adjacent to one another within the 2600 wide source you have created.  You will see the option to add a region just below the source canvas in the region mapper tool.

    The third step is adding corresponding regions to a destination on the right side of the region mapping interface.  Assuming you want this to play out of destination 1 then you would build matching regions on that 1920x1080 destination but in a striped configuration.

    The fourth step is routing your source regions to your destination regions. Click on the source then in the source/destination mapping interface below select the desired region and using the drop-down menu assign it to the appropriate destination region.
