I have a key on MME1 that I want to follow P/P BG, but ONLY when I take Cam 1 or Cam 2 on PGM, otherwise, I want the bus link to do nothing. Is this possible? I can build a custom control that copies the PGM bus source to the keyer when I take it, but that creates other issues for me.

Thanks

Hi Brian

Bus linking and a "no action" option for certain sources has been a feature on the wish list for quite a while but not currently available. 

I even reminded Les about it at NAB a couple days ago. Hopefully, eventually it will make it in there

Hi Brian,

A way to accomplish this is to build a DashBoard custom panel. The panel will track the ME PGM bus, and when Cam 1 or Cam 2 is on, it will put Cam 1 or 2 respectively on the miniME1's key. Otherwise, it will not do anything.

I do not know how familiar you are with building custom panels on DashBoard. I have attached a screenshot of the visual blocks to make this work. If you need more guidance, let me know.

*Note that you will need the custom panel open for this to work.
