Auto Cube Function
Using the auto cube function to move or rotate any parallelepiped
(six faced solid with all opposite faces parallel) such as a cubic or
slab, you can automatically carry out the switch between front and
back video. Since you can use one image to provide a pair of
opposite faces, you can create a symmetrical solid with the
minimum number of channels or edit operations.
This section describes how to create a cube or slab, and move or
rotate it using the auto cube function.
Creating, Moving, and Rotating a Cube
The first example shows how to create, move, and rotate a cube of
side 6.00 units.
Preliminary operations
First make the following settings.
• In the CHANNEL ASSIGN menu (see page 10-5), set F5
(GLOBAL ENABLE) to “ON”.
• Press the CLR WORK BUFF button twice to clear the
parameters in the working key frame buffer.
• In the FRONT KEY menu (see page 6-6), set the key signal type
to “Internal”.
• In the COMBINER menu (see page 5-74), set F5 (DEPTH) to
“ON”.
• In the BKGD menu (see page 5-13), set F1 (BKGD) or F7
(CLEAN KEY) to “ON”.

Methods of interpolation for the video signal
There are four possible methods of interpolation for the video
signal, as follows.
Adpt Y/C (Adaptive Y/C): By detecting movement separately
in the luminance and chrominance components of the video
signal, the system automatically switches between field and
frame units. Use this mode normally.
Adpt Y (Adaptive Y): Adaptive processing is applied to the
chrominance signal based on the movement detected in the
luminance signal.
For details, see the section "Signal Processing Settings 2"
(page 10-35).
Frame: Interpolation is carried out in frame units. This provides
the best image quality for still frames.
Field: Interpolation is carried out in field units. This provides
the most natural motion for moving images.
Methods of interpolation for the key signal
There are three possible methods of interpolation for the key
signal, as follows.
Adaptive: By detecting movement from the luminance
component of the key signal, the system automatically
switches between field and frame units.
Frame: The same as the “Frame” setting for the video signal.
Field: The same as the “Field” setting for the video signal.
Interpolation Settings – 56

6-14 Chapter 6 Input/Output Signal Operations
Selecting the interpolation method for each signal.
• To change the setting for the front video signal, press F1
(FRONT VIDEO).
• To change the setting for the front key signal, press F2 (FRONT
KEY).
• To change the setting for the back video signal, press F3 (BACK
VIDEO).
• To change the setting for the back key signal, press F4 (BACK
KEY).
• To change the setting for the external video signal input to the
front, press F7 (EXT FR VIDEO).
• To change the setting for the external video signal input to the
back, press F8 (EXT BK VIDEO).
Pressing F1 or F3 cycles the corresponding setting through Adpt
Y/C, Adpt Y, Frame, and Field, in sequence.
Pressing F2, F4, F7 or F8 cycles the corresponding setting through
Adaptive, Frame, and Field, in sequence.
Selecting the pixel count for interpolation processing
Press F5 (INTERPO TYPE) to toggle the pixel count for
interpolation processing between “Multi” (8 ×8) and “Linear” (2 ×
2).
Multi: Interpolation processing is carried out for an 8 ×8 pixel
count. This leads to higher image quality, and is therefore the
mode for normal use.
Linear: Interpolation processing is carried out for an 2 ×2 pixel
count. Use this mode only when it is necessary to emulate
DME-3000 image quality.
