Some Arithmetic Control Algorithms for a Digital Video Effects Unit
James E. Blecksmith · SMPTE Journal · 1983
This article gives a description of some of the control algorithms used by the Mark II Digital Video Effects unit (DVE), together with a brief description of the overall system. The Mark II DVE normally is part of a larger system consisting of a Grass Valley 300 switcher and a Serial Interface Adapter that provides communication to a videotape editor and/or a disk storage unit. The control algorithms that are described reside within the DVE Controller.
