Clip Transitions

Overview

You can play frame memory video content linked to a
background transition, such as a mix or wipe.
A key for a clip transition is mixed with the background
during execution of the transition.
Clip transition restrictions
• Pattern limits cannot be used.
• Transition preview cannot be used.
• It is not possible to set the transition rate of a clip
transition.
• A clip transition cannot be saved in an effect timeline as
a keyframe.
• The state of a clip transition during execution cannot be
saved in a snapshot.
• When recalling a snapshot that includes a clip transition
while executing another clip transition, the subsequent
transition does not operate properly. Recall the snapshot
after the transition completes.
• When recalling a DME wipe snapshot while executing a
clip transition, the image may be distorted.
• Transitions executed in two strokes, such as a preset
color mix when the stroke mode is set to normal mode,
or a DME wipe with a picture-in-picture pattern, will not
execute properly.
• When a clip transition is selected, the wipe direction
selection button in the transition control block that is lit
indicates the playback direction of the frame memory
clip.
