7.18 Programming Menu > Capture Stillstore from Inputs & Backgrounds

General

In this procedure, you will capture the inputs or background inputs as a Stillstored image.

Prerequisite

Captured Stills are used as thumbnails in general in the interface once they are used in a layer or destination.

Capture Stillstore (Stills)
  1. Click on the Inputs subtab under the Input tab, or click on the Background subtab under the Native Background tab at the top of the Resource pane.
  2. Click on the Camera icon.

    Image 7–7

    The icon momentarily changes to a grayed out version with a red "x" above a frame from which the input signal is captured into non-volatile memory.

  3. When the icon reverts back, the Still Store is now available in the Stills tab of the Input Resource tab.
Capacities and limitations

As a reference 100 still stores of 2K resolution can be stored, if the size of the still is bigger, the memory allocation increases allowing for less number of stills. Image can be imported as described in the Operation Section below.

Still Stores can be used in Backgrounds and Layers.
