    Hi,

    I find myself on a Ross Carbonite for the first time in a very long time. A couple of questions...

    What format do media transitions need to be?
    How do I import media into the switcher?

    Can I have one replay effect for one output and another replay effect going to another output?

    Thanks

    Hello Greg!

    What format do media transitions need to be?
    TGA or PNG (with Alpha) Sequences
    How do I import media into the switcher? You can FTP 

    Can I have one replay effect for one output and another replay effect going to another output? 

    If you mean run a Media Wipe in 2 different ME's to TWO different replay servers at the same time?  you can try to use MS 1 on one ME and MS2 on another and fire the Media Wipes using a custom control.

    Does the dashboard come into play for the FTP?

    No, you use most FTP programs including Windows Explorer.

    Thanks for your help so far. 

    I have a replay in for a domestic feed and a world feed. I have the same for the replay out. Can I key both on one ME and assign one key to the domestic output and another to the world output? Or would it be better to have one ME for domestic and one for world and do a media transition on each ME?

    Are there macros that can be built that would do these actions on a button push?
