Keyer Areas
When the key bus is contributing to the switcher Program output, 
pressing
 MATTE FILL
 does not low tally the key bus, even though 
the key fill video is not visible.
Video fill mode operates with background keyers in layered 
mode. When the keyer is delegated to a background layer, the
 
VIDEO FILL
 button is turned on automatically (
MATTE FILL
 is 
turned off).
Key Source Buttons
The
 VIDEO KEY
 and
 AUTO SELECT KEY
 buttons determine the 
source of the key.
Pressing the
 VIDEO KEY
 button forces derivation of the key from a 
video source. The “video source” is the video selected on the key 
bus (for keyers 1 and 2) or on the background bus (for background 
keyers in layered mode only).
If 
VIDEO KEY 
and
 VIDEO FILL
 are both selected, the result is a self-
key.
Pressing
 VIDEO KEY
 while in Chroma Key mode causes an 
encoded chroma key, using the fill video as the source for the 
encoded chroma keyer.
Pressing the
 AUTO SEL KEY
 button forces the key to be derived 
from a user-defined source.
User preferences selected in the Configuration/User Preferences 
menu determine whether a luminance or linear key is a self-key or 
an external key (and determine which external key is used). They 
also specify whether chroma keys are encoded or analog 
component (YUV, BETA, MII, or RGB).
