Preparing A Logo File - Sony DSR-PD150 Manual De Instrucciones

Preparing a logo file

To insert a logo file on a moving picture, there are two ways: one uses the
luminancekey setting and the other uses the chroma setting.
Preparation 1 Creating a logo file
Create a logo file at 640 × 480 dots (VGA size).
Luminancekey (LUMINANCE)
Makes a brighter portion of a still image transparent, then records a moving picture on
that portion. When you use luminancekey to insert a logo file, the background
(transparent portion) of the logo file must be created in white, and the ratio setting of
the RGB signal must be as follows: R=255, G=255, and B=255. If an image has a brighter
portion other than the background, that portion may be transparent.
Chroma (CHROMA)
Makes a blue portion of a still image transparent, then records a moving picture on that
portion. When you use chroma to insert a logo file, the background (transparent
portion) of the logo file must be created in blue, and the ratio setting of an RGB signal
must be as follows: R=0, G=0, and B=255. If an image has a blue portion other than the
background, that portion may be made transparent.
Preparation 2 Saving a logo file in the "Memory Stick" format
Convert a logo file format to the "Memory Stick" format, and save it in the 100msdcf
folder, using the supplied application, PictureGear. (For DSR-PD170/PD170P models,
PictureGear is optional.)
Notes
•The portion of a still image that is displayed on the LCD screen or in the viewfinder is
90% of the original image. So, the portion near the edges may not be displayed.
•The resolution of a still image that is created using the chromakey setting is about 360
× 480 dots.
Usable file formats for a logo file
You can only use JPEG format files of 640 × 480 dots (VGA size) that correspond to the
"Memory Stick" format. However, you can use the following file format images by
converting them to "Memory Stick" format files using the supplied application,
PictureGear: TIFF, BITMAP, GIF, PNG, and DVF. (For DSR-PD170/PD170P models,
PictureGear is optional.)
