The logo property superimposes a graphic over captured video using the logo property controls (Figure 41).

Logos have the following characteristics:

∙Use any RGB-24 bitmap in .bmp file format.

∙Specify a selectable key color; all parts of the logo graphic with that color are not drawn on the video.

∙Use a transparency control to blend the logo graphic with the background video.

∙Interactively position and scale the logo.

∙Configure a logo to appear on both captured and previewed video, either simultaneously or independently.

The logo property controls work best when you are already running preview video. With preview video running, you can view your changes interactively. (If your application displays capture video in real time, you can use capture video instead).

It is possible to have different logo settings on each pin, or a logo enabled on one pin but not the other pin. However, selecting Both applies any logo settings on the File and Color and Position and Size tabs to both pins simultaneously. The settings on the File and Color tab and the Position and Size tab are also pin dependent. You can select either the Capture or Preview pin to have independent settings for each one, or you can select Both to simultaneously apply the settings to both the Capture and Preview pins.
