Settings
The settings section in Ultimatte Software Control lets you change video settings, access the
media pool and make adjustments to the inputs and outputs.
System
The system menu lets you select your Ultimatte's video format, change color space settings
and set the 3G-SDI output level.
Video Format
Select your video format from the menu, or set it to 'auto detect'.
3G SDI Outputs
Ultimatte will detect a level A or level B 3G-SDI input automatically. The output is set to level B
by default, but you can change it to level A if needed.
To change the 3G-SDI output to level A or B:
1
Go to the 'settings' menu in Ultimatte Software Control.
2
Click on the 'system' button. A window will appear with checkboxes for level A and
Level B 3G-SDI.
3
Select the desired level checkbox, then click 'apply' to confirm the setting. Click 'close'
to exit the window.
HD/UHD Color Space
All Ultimatte models, except Ultimatte 12 HD Mini support Rec. 2020 color gamut for both HD
and Ultra HD. When Rec. 2020 is selected, all input signals must comply with Rec. 2020, and all
output signals will conform accordingly. When your Ultimatte detects standard definition, it will
automatically set the color gamut to Rec. 601 so you don't have to change the setting when
using SD video.
To set the color space:
1
Go to the 'settings' menu in Ultimatte Software Control.
2
Click on the 'system' button. A window will appear with checkboxes for Rec. 709
and Rec. 2020
3
Choose the color space you want to use, then click 'apply' to confirm the setting.
Click 'close' to exit the window.
Media
The media button gives you access to the media setup settings. Click the media setup button
to open the media pool window, you can then upload still images to the media pool and assign
images as sources using the 'assignment' tab. For more information, refer to the 'using the
media pool' section.
Inputs
The inputs menu gives you access to the timing controls if you need to delay the foreground
input to be synced with the background signal and to make subtle timing corrections to a
source input signal.
