DVE Key
DVEs, or digital video effects, are used to create picture-in-picture boxes with borders.
ATEM Mini has 1 channel of 2D DVE that allows scaling, rotation, borders and offers a
drop shadow.
Combining a background, DVE fill and DVE key/cut
Background
A full screen image.
Fill
Another full screen that has been scaled, rotated or has added borders and will be overlaid on
top of the background.
Key/Cut
In the case of a DVE key, the key/cut signal is generated by the switcher's internal
DVE processor.
To set up a DVE key on the upstream keyer in ATEM Software Control:
1
Expand the upstream key palette and select the DVE tab.
2
Select the fill source.
3
Adjust the key parameters to refine the key. For a description of DVE key parameters,
refer to the information below.
Adjusting the x/y position of the DVE
You can independently adjust the x and y positions of the DVE using the position X and Y
settings, or you can tie X and Y parameters together so adjusting one will automatically adjust
the other. To achieve this, simply enable the 'tie X and Y' setting.
This also applies to the size parameters.

Size Y
Reset DVE
Adjusts the horizontal size of the DVE.
Adjusts the vertical size of the DVE.
Resets the DVE to screen. Useful if you lose track of the DVE
during adjustment.
