  • 1.  Keying a live source

    Posted 11-03-2021 14:57
    We are sending a live feed into Xpression and then to air. Is there any way to key out the background of a live source?

    Thank you,
    Vern

    Yes, you will need the CK option on your XPression though.

    Hey Simon,
    I know you said this is not standard, however, is this Chroma Key effect something we should have on Flex as well as Designer? If not how do we get it in Flex?

    Hey,

    You must speak to your RSM or local reseller, they can add it to your dongle, you only need to add it to the machines you wish to key on.

    This method will require you to fo add the CK effect to the scene on the live machine each time so to save time you could add to the designer as well so that the offline person could add it into the project and no one else has to worry about it.
