7 VIDEO COMPOSITING
The Quadro SDI supports programmable 2D compositing. This operating mode
combines the image data from the incoming video stream with the GPU-rendered image
based upon the values in a third image known as a matte or key channel. The Quadro
SDI supports the following compositing methods.
Note: 2D compositing is any supported when the signal format of the incoming
video matches the outgoing signal format and the outgoing SDI video signal is
genlocked to the input signal. Scaling or retiming the video input to match the
video output signal format is not supported.
7.1 ALPHA COMPOSITING
In the case of alpha compositing, the application provides the key / matte channel per
field / frame in the alpha channel of the OpenGL graphics stream. When the application
enables alpha compositing via the API, the Quadro SDI simply executes the function
below to compute the final pixel color.
output color = input video color * (1 - alpha) + input graphics color * (alpha)
When the value of the key or matte is strictly 1 or 0, the compositing is complete
replacement. When the key value is between 0 and 1, the two images (video and
graphics) would be blended. The above formula is executed for each and every pixel in
the SDI output stream.
