Using Picture in Picture

Picture in picture superimposes a second source over your broadcast video source in a small
box you can position and customize. Input 1 is the default picture in picture source, so if you’re
broadcasting gameplay and want to superimpose your reactions, plug your camera into input 1
and it will appear in picture in picture.

To enable picture in picture:

1 Make sure your video to be inside the box is plugged into HDMI input 1.
2 Plug your main video into HDMI input 2, 3, or 4.
3 In the picture in picture buttons on control panel, press ‘on’.

You will now see the picture in picture box appear on the screen. To select a different position,
press any of the position buttons.

Using the Upstream Keyer

ATEM Mini’s upstream keyer is used to superimpose graphics or blend one video layer over
another using transparency. This means you can tell ATEM Mini to make an input source’s
background color invisible using the chroma keyer, or only use a specific section of a graphic
using a luma or linear key. Linear keys are great for visual effects, titles and lower third graphics.

Press the ‘key’ on or off buttons to switch the

upstream keyer on and off air

TIP  ATEM Mini’s advanced chroma keyer is perfect for keying graphics from a
PowerPoint presentation. For example, you could have a series of graphics designed
to be keyed over a background and these can played out directly from a PowerPoint
sequence. All you need to do is make any invisible areas green, or any solid color that
isn’t used in your graphic, then set the chroma keyer to make that color transparent.
The images from your computer will be high quality over HDMI so will key very cleanly
and look fantastic.
