The video data can be in progressive or interlaced format,
while the graphics data is always in the progressive format.
The Mixer/Blender can mix/blend either format of video
data with graphics data. F4BAR0+Memory Offset 4Ch[9]
programs the mix/blend format. Considering the color
space and the data format, the Mixer/Blender supports five

programs the mix/blend format. Considering the color
space and the data format, the Mixer/Blender supports five
types of mixing/blending. Some of the mixing/blending
types have additional programming considerations to
enable them to work optimally. The valid mixing/blending
configurations are listed in see Table 7-2 along with any
additional programming requirements.
