having some Keying issue on CARBONITE BLACK PLUS.

just want to know CARBONITE BLACK PLUS can support how many keying and DVE ( pictures in pictures)?

cause I put 2 lower third on ME 1 & 2 already can't do on ME3 & 4, and DVE as well.. 

Hi Alan, the Carbonite Black Plus has 8 floating DVEs. Each ME has 4 full keyers; each miniME has 1 DVE key and 1 full keyer. There is a maximum of 3 MEs and 4 miniMEs.

The Carbonite's Status page on Dashboard will show you where each DVE is being used.

meaning I can do 4 full alpha  keyers at ME1 at the same time? 

but what I keep trying is got can get 2 full keying. when go to KEY 3 and KEY 4 it can't work.. 

Yes, you can do 4 full alpha keyers at the same time on ME1.

Could you clarify what is not working on Key 3 and Key 4? Can sources be assigned to key 3 and 4? Do the key mnemonics light up on the panel? It is possible that the panel row is delegated to a miniME, which has 2 keyers.

tomorrow will try it again and post it to u.. thx..

hi Aaron, I should ask like this. 

CARBONITE BLACK PLUS. can do how many chroma key? cause I try in ME 1 or ME 2.  Look to me MAX is only 2 chroma.

caused I doing a job need around 5 chroma key.. how can it happen on carbonite black plus?

There are 2 floating chroma engines in Carbonite Black Plus.

Are you keying a single camera source on 5 different backgrounds? Or keying 5 individual camera sources?

If you are keying a single camera source, you can turn on layer mode on an ME, and use its Program and Clean Feed outputs as Video and Alpha sources on any keyer.

But if you are keying 5 different camera sources, then chromakeying 2 sources is the maximum.
