Appendix (glossary)

Word	Explanation
Frame Memory	A memory which can hold the video signals equivalent to one frame.
Frame Synchronizer	A function which matches the synchronization of non-synchronized video
	input signals.
Freeze	A function which continues the display of the same image, creating the
	impression that the image has been “frozen”.
FTB [Fade to Black]	This is the effect where the background image is faded out to the black
	screen.
Genlock	A function for synchronizing the video signals using an external sync signal
	as the reference.
GPI	Interface signals which control auto transition from an external source.
[General Purpose Interface]
Hue	The color tone of the video signals.
IRE	A unit used for video signal levels.
	The setup level (black level) of the signals is expressed as 0 IRE, 7.5 IRE,
	etc.
Key Edge	The border or shadow added to the edges of keys.
Key Fill	The signal that uses key combination processing to fill in the areas left blank
	by the key signals.
Key Gain	A parameter which is used to adjust the amplitude of the key signals.
Key Invert	A function which inverts the key signals.
Key Mask	This is the function that specifies the area for key combination using the
	box pattern, etc. When only part of the area of the key signals is used, key
	combination is executed with the unnecessary area masked.
Key Source	The video signals for creating the key signals.
Linear Key	The function which combines keys using monochrome key signals with
	gradations in its outlines as a reference.
Lum	The brightness portion of the video signals.
[Luminance]
Luminance Key	The function which creates key signals based on the luminance (brightness)
	information of the video signals to combine keys.
ME	A video effect device which combines a number of video signals to create
[Mix Effect]	mix, wipe, key and other video signals.
Mix	The picture-changing effect produced by overlapping one image with the
	next.
	It is also referred to as “dissolve”.
Multi View Display	This function combines multiple materials and displays them on one screen.
	PGM, PVW and the input material can be previewed at the same time on a
