Greetings from sunny Florida!

I'm looking for some help...I've made a transition that I'd like to use as a DME user wipe. It is a single channel; basically a z-axis zoom, defocus, white flash to the next source.

When I bring it into the DME user wipe, it flops PGM/PVW in the ME, or tallies the PVW bus rather than the PGM bus. I'm sure it is something that I'm doing, but I'm just not seeing it clearly. When I do get it to work correctly, it only runs in one direction, then is a cut when I try to run the effect again.

Can anyone make me see the light?

Thanks!
Matt

Hi Rick! Thank you...your explanation made it all make sense to me, and esentially I needed to build the effect backwards. This was a new concept to me, and while the manual attempted to explain it, it obviously didn't explain it well enough for me to understand! I appreciate the help... Just curious...is version 6.0 out yet? Matt

Matt, First off, is the VIDEO incorrect? If yes, the it's likely you built the effect backwards. DME Wipe is, essentially, a 5th keyer on each M/E dedicated to the DME. Imagine if you built and executed this effect manually with an old-fashioned DVEous or DME-7000 (external, not internal). If you built the effect starting on-screen then put the keyer on, then everything feeding the DME would be on-air instead of the A Bus. Same thing applies to DME wipe. When you press the DME wipe button all you're doing is (in a single frame) is feeding the DME with the B Bus, then keying the DME over the A Bus. If you're effect isn't built with KeyFrame 1 completely off-screen it won't work. If you built in "on-screen" to "off-screen" then you'll get the B Bus on-air as soon as you press DME WIPE. Make sure you build custom effects for DME Wipe off-screen to on-screen. If you want to RUN then on-screen to off-screen, just set the direction to REV. Now, all that being said, if the VIDEO is correct and you're just getting a B-Bus tally, I'm told that is a bug in 5.2x (don't really know). I'm told it's fixed in 6.0 RE
