preroll

keyer

title: Enable Keyer
description: Keying is the process of compositing MLT output over a live SDI input. The alpha channel of the MLT video controls the transparent areas, and the keyer supports alpha-blending. You can not control the compositing rectangle. Rather, the entire MLT output overlays the entire video input. Therefore, you must use MLT's compositing services to control the size and position. The value 1 enables the internal keyer, the value 2 enables the external keyer, and the value 0 disables it.
