Outputs on eXtreme frame

Found In Egroup: Production Switchers \ view thread
New to the eXtreme frame here, need to clarify my understanding of the number of outputs. (ver, 11.02, with 1 switcher installed in the frame). Reading the comparison sheet of the various frame models, it indicates that the frame has "from 16 to 144" multi-definition outputs. But when I look at ...

Which video card was used in the original 2 channel Xpression CG system (circa 2010 / early 2011) ? Was it the Matrox card? This unit is housed in the original rack frame / chassis. We are having a problem with full frame graphics not filling the entire screen area. Working in 1920 X ...

I can't seem to store/recall an animated key. The two animations are 12 secs. (360 frames) and 10 secs. (300 frames) respectively. These clips are .tga sequences with alpha, transferred from USB to the respective caches. They are loaded into M1/M3 and M2/M4. I've set the media player ...

Morning: Thanks for the heads up on getting to the control assignment. AUX 1 was inactive. It appears to be operating normally again. (Strange, as I was only changing crosspoint names and mapping primary crosspoint sources). All is well now, Thx. b. #Ca ...

2 ME Carbonite switcher (16 input, ver. 8.0 software) When selecting AUX 1 on the ME, the RGB button switch remains illuminated in white, and there is no IN USE prompt in the screen. When AUX 1 is depressed on ME 1, the ME 1 PGM sources change in the mnemonic display to ME 1 and ME 2 Selecting ...

Cameras are Sony... we ended up feeding the switcher and cameras (DCUs) with separate references directly from the SPG... seems like the culprit may have been a DA, which was originally going to distribute a common ref. All is well now... #Carbonite

Apologies in advance if this has been discussed before... New 2ME Carbonite being installed in a flight pack... will be working in 1080i format... Does the Carbonite need to lock to Tri-sync? or can it lock to NTSC analog black? I'm using Tri-sync and am questioning the NO LOCK when in ...

Still having trouble finding this... all we can find at the moment is the Matrox Card info... and that is telling us that the chip temperature is 37.5 deg. C. .......... We have checked on both the remote desktop view (via Team Viewer), and at the chassis in the equipment room... no luck... ...

Sync timing

We are using BB units for graphic playout... and need to check vertical timing. Would this be on the Expression sync gen? or on the Matrox card? Are adjustments for sync timing made in the hardware chassis or through a set-up GUI? thx. b. .
