Welcome

Thank you for purchasing Blackmagic Ultimatte.

Ultimatte has been the premiere keyer used in the film and television industries for decades and no other keyer comes close to the performance that Ultimatte can achieve. It's powerful enough to handle fine detail on key edges as well as retaining stronger colors, even when those foreground colors are close to the key color. Even uneven green and blue screen backdrops can be handled.

However, what makes Ultimatte so powerful is its ability to map shadows onto the new background layer combined with its color spill management that lets you create extremely realistic environments. In many ways, Ultimatte is much more than a keyer as it's really a real time advanced compositor for creating photorealistic virtual environments. Ultimatte lets you move your talent to any location at the click of a button and the results look real.

This instruction manual contains all the information you need to get started with Ultimatte as well as detailed instructions on how to operate Ultimatte using Blackmagic Ultimatte Software Control from your computer or Smart Remote 4.

Also, please check the support page on our website at www.blackmagicdesign.com for the latest version of this manual and for updates to your Blackmagic Ultimatte's software. Keeping your software up to date will ensure you get all the latest features! We are continually working on new features and improvements, so we would love to hear from you!

What is a Matte?

Before we get started using Ultimatte, it's a good idea to look at the types of mattes you can use and how they are arranged in your composite. A basic knowledge of matte types will let you jump right in and start refining your composite.

When a section of an image is intended to be composited over another image, it requires an accompanying matte, either generated internally by Ultimatte, or supplied via an external source. A matte is also known as an 'alpha', or 'key', and is displayed as a grayscale image. The matte determines what will be visible in the accompanying source image that is being composited. The source image to be composited is called the 'fill'.

Black regions in the matte will allow those regions in the corresponding 'fill' image to be visible in the composited output, and any areas that are white will be cut out, or removed, showing the image behind it. Variations of gray means those areas of the corresponding fill image will be partially transparent.

An example of a final output comprised of background, foreground and layers composited together

Types of Mattes

Different matte types are used for specific purposes to separate areas of the corresponding image into foreground and background elements, or to include or exclude sections of the matte you want to keep or discard.

Below is a description of the types of mattes used.

Background Matte

The background matte lets you extract a section from the background and place it over the foreground.

For example, you may have a virtual set as your background image that has a partition on one side. Using a background matte that precisely matches the partition in your virtual set, you can extract the partition from the background and the talent can walk behind it. This is an excellent way to create a foreground element using the background image and keeps the layer input free for additional foreground items. It's important to note that elements to be extracted from the background must be completely opaque.

Matte

This is the primary matte you will be working within your composite. This matte is derived using the source connected to the foreground input. Typically a presenter in front of a green screen. The matte is generated internally by analyzing the backing color in the source video and will determine what is visible in the foreground image.

TIP Objects that obscure the backing color, either partly or completely, will be visible in the composited image. In the matte, fully opaque black means the corresponding areas in the fill image will be completely visible. Shades of gray means partially transparent.

Garbage Matte

A garbage matte excludes areas of a source you don't want to include in your composite.

For example, there may be lights and gripping equipment visible around the edges of your foreground image. If you want to mask out these unwanted areas, a garbage matte lets you do that. Garbage mats can be generated externally so they precisely match shapes in your source video, and connected to the garbage matte input.

TIP You can create an internal mask using the 'window' controls on your Ultimatte. This can be a great tool for creating a rough, fast garbage matte. For more information on how to set up window masks, refer to the 'matte input/window' section.

Holdout Matte

This matte is similar to a garbage matte, however, it lets you mask out areas from within the visible foreground so they are ignored by the matte.

For example, imagine a portion of a virtual set needs to appear green in the foreground. This will present a challenge because anything green will key out and reveal the background underneath. A holdout matte can be created to exclude that particular area within the set, which will prevent it from being keyed.

Layer Matte

The layer matte lets you add more foreground elements to the scene. For example, if you want to add graphics over the top of the composite.

The layer matte can include transparency elements and you can swap the layer positioning in the final composite. For example, you may want to change the layer order during your production so the layer input appears in front of, then behind, the talent. You can even set a transition rate so the order change is a smooth mix transition.

For more information, refer to the 'Matte input settings/setting the layer order' section.

Getting Started

Getting started with your Ultimatte is as simple as plugging in power, plugging in your camera foreground, connecting your background source and then plugging the automatically generated composite into a switcher. This getting started section will show you the basics of setting up a fast auto composite for your live production. The model used in this section is an Ultimatte 12 HD Mini which has HDMI connectors, but all SDI Ultimatte models share similar features and the setup is exactly the same for their SDI connectors.

Plugging in Power

To power your Ultimatte, plug a standard IEC cable into your Ultimatte's power input on the rear panel.

Setting the Language

Once powered, the LCD display will prompt you to select your language. Using the settings dial, scroll to the language you wish to use and press the flashing 'set' button to confirm your selection.

1 Use the settings dial to select your language

2 Press the 'set' button to confirm your setting.

Connecting your Camera Foreground

With power connected, you can now plug your camera into the camera foreground input.

Connecting the Background

Now plug your background source into the 'background' input. For example, this could be a video feed from a gaming console, or a virtual set from a HyperDeck video feed, or even a still graphic you can load into the media pool using Ultimatte Software Control. For more information, refer to the 'using the media pool' section.

Generating an Auto Composite

As you plug in your sources, Ultimatte will automatically build your composite and you can see it happening on the front panel's LCD. Once all sources are connected, the automatically generated composite is ready for output.

NOTE The foreground input will determine the video format for all inputs. For example, if you have 1080 HD connected to the foreground input, make sure all the other sources are set to 1080 HD.

Connecting to a Switcher

The program video output lets you connect the final composite to an ATEM switcher, for example an ATEM Mini or ATEM SDI. If your foreground input source has embedded audio and timecode, they will be included in the program output.

Monitoring

Plugging a monitor into the monitor output lets you view the background source, camera foreground and internally generated matts. This is helpful when refining your composite. For more information refer to the 'monitor out' section.

The monitor input and output is also used for cascade monitoring. This feature lets you daisy chain multiple Ultimatte units via SDI so you can monitor the sources and outputs on all units via one single Ultimatte, rather than connecting monitors to each unit individually. For more information, refer to the 'monitor cascade feature' section.

Setting the Auto Composite

The automatically generated composite is ready to be used as soon as your foreground and background sources are connected. You can reset the starting composite at any time by using the 'auto key' function in the front panel's LCD menu. We recommend resetting the auto key each time the lighting changes or you shift the camera's position.

Use the auto key function to reset your composite

Your Ultimatte will set an automatic composite with green selected as the backing color by default. If your lighting is optimized and your green screen environment has been carefully set up, the automatic composite generated by Ultimatte can be all you need to do.

If you are setting up a highly detailed and complex virtual set, or your green screen requires some help from Ultimatte, you can use Ultimatte Software Control on your computer or a Smart Remote 4 hardware panel to make precise adjustments to the various matte controls and hand craft your final composite. This includes features such as screen correction which can help improve your composite if your green screen has uneven lighting or blemishes that are visible in your auto key.

We believe you will enjoy exploring your Ultimatte and developing your own workflow to produce amazing virtual environments. You can even build larger setups using multiple cameras and an Ultimatte unit on each camera so you can have different camera angles on your virtual set. When constructing graphics and backgrounds that are tailored to each angle, the possibilities are truly endless!

Please keep reading this manual for information on how to use your Ultimatte's front panel to change settings, plus how to control the unit using Ultimatte Software Control.

Monitor Cascade

The monitor cascade feature lets you view the monitor output from up to eight Ultimatte units via one single unit.

To connect up to eight Ultimatte units together and use the monitor cascade feature, each unit needs to be connected to common analog reference or to foreground sources that are locked together. The Ultimatte units can then be daisy chained via their monitor inputs and outputs, with the last unit plugged into a monitor. Then when you select any of the eight units in Ultimatte Software Control, the monitor output for that particular unit can be viewed from the monitor output on the last unit.

To enable the monitor cascade feature in Ultimatte Software Control, click on the 'info' icon in the files and information section, and check the 'monitor cascade' checkbox in the 'configuration' tab.

Switching the monitor cascade feature on or off will affect the SDI monitor output but does not affect your Ultimatte's front panel LCD. The LCD on the front panel always displays the program output for that unit.

Below is an example showing how two Ultimatte units are daisy chained for cascade monitoring.

For more information on cascade monitoring, refer to the 'settings/monitor cascade' section.

Connectors

Use the connectors on your Ultimatte's rear panel to connect power, video inputs, video outputs and to connect your Ultimatte to a computer or network. On smaller units that have fewer inputs you can load stills into the media pool and assign them to specific sources instead of plugging in those sources via a connector. Refer to the 'Using the Media Pool' section for more information.

Ultimate 12 4K

Ultimate 12 HD Mini

1 Power

Power your Ultimatte by connecting a standard IEC cable to the rear panel. If your Ultimatte model has an additional IEC power input, you can connect to another power source for redundancy. For example, connecting the second input to an uninterrupted power supply, or UPS, will instantly take over if the primary source fails.

2 USB

On larger Ultimatte units, use the USB port on the rear panel to connect your Ultimatte to your computer. This allows you to update and configure your Ultimatte with Blackmagic Ultimatte Setup. On smaller Ultimatte models the USB port is on the front panel.

3 Ethernet

The Ethernet port lets you connect to a computer, network or Smart Remote 4 so you can control your Ultimatte using Ultimatte Software Control. For more information, refer to the 'connecting your computer' and 'connecting to a network' sections later in this manual.

4 Reference

Most Ultimatte models feature reference input and output connectors. You can connect a reference signal to the reference input and sync your Ultimatte to an external master sync source. The reference out lets you loop the reference input to another Ultimatte or video equipment.

5 GPIO

On larger Ultimatte models, this connector is for use with an external GPI interface. GPI inputs and outputs let you trigger Ultimatte preset files as GPI events. For more information refer to the 'GPI and tally settings' section.

6 Video Inputs

Each source input used in a composite should be carefully planned, so the elements that build your shot can be arranged into specific layers. Each source should be the same video format and connected to its determined source input so you always know where everything is, and you can manage your composite more effectively.

All inputs and outputs support SD and HD. Ultimatte 12 and Ultimatte 12 4K support Ultra HD. Ultimatte 12 8K has additional support for 8K formats.

Background Input

The background input is the image you want to use as the background for your composite. Depending on the Ultimatte model you are using, plug the background input into the BG IN or Background connector. You can also select a still from the media pool to use as a background.

Background Matte Input

If you want to extract a section of the background to use as a foreground element, choose a still from the media store or plug the background matte source into the BG MATTE IN connector.

Garbage Matte Input

A garbage matte allows you to exclude areas of a source so they are not included in your composite, for example lights or gripping equipment visible around the edges of your foreground image. To add a garbage matte plug a source containing an externally generated garbage matte into the G MATTE IN connector. You can also select a still from the media pool to use as a garbage matte.

Camera Foreground Input

Plug the foreground image you want to composite over the top of the background into the FG IN or Camera FG connector. The foreground image is typically the talent in front of a green screen.

Holdout Matte Input

A holdout matte lets you define an area of the foreground that you do not want to be keyed out, for example a green logo on the front of a desk. To add a holdout matte select a still from the media pool or plug a source containing an externally generated holdout matte into the H MATTE IN connector.

Layer Input

The layer input is for any additional video or graphics you want to add to your composite. You can also select a still from the media pool to use as a layer.

Layer Matte Input

Similar to other matte inputs, this input lets you connect an externally generated matte so you can precisely add the layer input source into your composite. You can also select a still from the media pool to use as a layer matte.

Return

The 'return' connector on the rear panel of Ultimatte 12 HD Mini is for connecting camera control and tally data from an SDI ATEM switcher. For more information, refer to the 'Camera Control via Ultimatte 12 HD Mini' section for more information.

Monitor Input

The monitor input is important for daisy chaining to other Ultimatte units when using the powerful monitor cascade feature. Refer to the 'settings' section for more information.

7 Video Outputs

Source Loop Outputs

On some Ultimatte models, each source input has its own dedicated loop SDI output.

Program Outputs 1 and 2

Plug a program output, marked PGM into a switcher, for example an ATEM Mini or ATEM SDI.

Ultimatte 12 HD Mini models have both an SDI and HDMI program output.

Fill Outputs 1 and 2

If the Ultimatte unit you are using features fill outputs, then you can connect these outputs into a recording deck, and into a switcher for final compositing.

Matte Outputs 1 and 2

If the Ultimatte model you are using has matte outputs, then you can plug these into a recording deck, and into a switcher for final compositing. The matte output includes the internal matte, plus the garbage matte and holdout matte if enabled.

Talent Out 1 and 2

The talent output on larger Ultimatte models lets your talent monitor the final composite so they can position themselves in the frame and coordinate their actions to the composited image.

The talent output has a 'mirror' setting that lets you flip the talent output horizontally. Using this feature, the talent can see his or her position on the screen without needing to compensate for reversed camera left and right staging. Refer to the 'settings/talent mirror' section for more information.

8 Monitor Output

Plug the monitor output into a monitor or recording deck, the monitor output can be used to view any of the inputs, outputs or internal matte signals. This connector is also used for daisy chaining to other Ultimatte units when using the powerful monitor cascade feature. Refer to the 'settings' section for more information.

Controlling Ultimatte

Now that you are familiar with your Ultimatte's front panel, we can begin exploring how to control your Ultimatte and build a composite. There are two different ways to control the unit, such as using the Ultimatte Software Control application on a Windows or Mac computer, or by using the touch screen interface on an optional Smart Remote 4 hardware panel. Both methods use the same general interface so once you are familiar with one, you will also be familiar with the other. The next section of this manual will explore Ultimatte Software Control.

Ultimate Software Control

Ultimatte Software Control gives you full control over all the features and functions of your Ultimatte allowing you to fine tune your composite, change settings, load images into the media pool and control up to eight Ultimatte units over a network. Ultimatte Software Control is compatible with Mac and Windows computers and Smart Remote 4.

Controls and settings are changed using buttons and knobs in the general interface. The settings for each control knob varies depending on which menu you have selected. Additional settings are accessed from the 'Ultimatte' and 'preset' menus at the top left of the screen. If you are using a Smart Remote 4, the physical buttons on the left side of the panel can be used to change these additional settings.

Installing Ultimatte Software

The Blackmagic Ultimatte software includes both Ultimatte Software Control and the Ultimatte Setup application.

Ultimatte Setup lets you update the internal software of your Ultimatte as well as change various settings such as network protocol.

All Ultimatte models except Ultimatte 12 support DHCP so the unit can be found on your network automatically and assigned an IP address. For information on how to manually set the network settings, refer to the 'connecting to a network' section.

Assigning a Unit Number

Once you have connected to a computer or Ethernet switch, launch Ultimatte Software Control. The software will automatically look for connected Ultimatte units.

When launching Ultimatte Software Control for the first time, a window will appear asking for you to assign your Ultimatte unit to a number. This is because up to 8 Ultimatte units can be controlled, therefore the software needs to identify each one. This only needs to happen the first time you connect to Ultimatte Software Control. Once the unit is assigned a number, it will be remembered the next time you launch the software.

To assign the unit:

1 Click in the list for number 1 and select your Ultimatte unit.

TIP If you are connecting to an Ultimatte 12, click the 'add via IP' button and enter the Ultimatte's IP address.

2 Click 'save'.

Ultimatte Software Control will now display the Ultimatte controls.

You can always assign additional units by clicking on the 'Ultimatte' menu at the top of the screen and selecting 'Ultimatte Connection'.

You can see all the Ultimatte units being controlled by glancing at the status bar. Up to 8 units can be controlled, and each unit icon will illuminate green when identified on your network. When a unit is selected for control, the icon will illuminate blue. For more information on how to set up and control multiple units over a network, refer to the 'connecting to a network' section.

Refer to the 'connecting to a network' section for information about how to set up and control multiple Ultimate units on your network

TIP If your Ultimatte is connected to your computer or Smart Remote 4 but its unit indicator is not illuminated in the status bar, check your IP settings are configured correctly. Refer to the 'connecting to a network' section for more information.

Selecting the Ultimatte Main Unit

If you are connected to more than one Ultimatte unit over a network, you can switch between the unit you want to control by clicking the corresponding unit number in the Ultimatte Status bar. You can also use the F1-F8 keys on your computer's keyboard to switch between connected Ultimatte units.

If using a Smart Remote 4 to control more than one Ultimatte, use the 'units' buttons on the left hand side to select the Ultimatte you want to control. Tapping the numbers in the status bar will launch the connection dialogue box.

When selected, the unit icon will illuminate blue and all controls will be visible.

Ultimatte Software Control Layout

Settings and controls are displayed in sections. Although the interface can look intimidating at first glance with all the different buttons and settings, it won't take long before you will be moving between settings instinctively as you build your composite.

When you first look at the interface you can see a main menu at the top with a menu information bar underneath. Below that, the panels are separated into sections labeled 'groups', 'functions' and 'monitor output'. As you choose the menu and then move through the functions and groups, the sections will populate with relevant settings letting you navigate quickly between them.

Main Menu Buttons

Use the menu buttons along the top of the screen to select the different input sources you want to adjust, plus select the matte for making adjustments to the primary matte, and generally configure your Ultimatte.

Functions

The functions section provides specific settings that can be selected, enabled or disabled. For example, the matte reset button is located in this section if you need to restore particular settings to their default state.

Status Bar

You can see all the Ultimatte units being controlled by Ultimatte Software Control by glancing at the status bar. Up to eight units can be controlled, and each unit icon will illuminate green when identified on your network. When a unit is selected for control, the icon will illuminate blue.

Ultimatte Main Unit Indicators	The eight small box indicators on the left side show you which main units are connected on the network, and which unit is currently being controlled. If tally is connected via the GPIO input, the boxes will illuminate red when a unit is on air.
Reference Source Input	Displays the current reference source connected to your Ultimatte. The reference signal can be from the foreground source connected to the foreground input, or via the reference input. If a reference source is absent, 'none' will be displayed.
Backing Color	The default backing color is green and will be reflected by this indicator. When the backing color is changed, the indicator will also change to show the backing color being used.
Preset When you have loaded a preset file using the information and file control section, the preset name will be displayed. If no preset is loaded, 'ultimate defaults' will be displayed. In addition, the status bar also notifies you with messages. For example, if a specific control is currently locked and you need to enable another setting to access it, the status bar will notify you.

Monitor Out

The buttons in this section of the interface will select one of six images to be displayed on a video monitor connected to your Ultimatte's monitor output.

The default selections are listed below.

Program Final composited image.

Foreground Input Source image connected to the foreground input.

Setting Controls

On each side of the interface, you can see a row of setting control knobs. These control knobs will change based on which menu, group and function you have selected.

To adjust a setting, click on a control knob and move your mouse left or right. You can also click in the box below the settings knob and enter a number using your keyboard.

Double click a settings knob to return it to its default position.

Using the Media Pool

The media pool lets you store images and assign them as sources for your composite. You can also add transitions between two still images when they are assigned as a background and background matte or layer and layer matte.

This section shows how to load stills and assign them as sources.

To load a still into the media pool:

1 Open the 'settings' tab in Ultimatte Software Control and click on the media button.
2 Choose 'media setup' from the groups area to open the media pool dialogue box.
3 Click the 'add media' button in the media pool tab and choose the image you want to import.
4 Your imported image will now appear in the device storage list.

Imported images will appear in the device storage list

To delete an imported image, simply select it from the list and click on the 'remove media' button.

To assign a still image to a source:

1 Select the assignment tab in the media window.
2 Use the destination menu to assign a still image to a background, layer or matte.

TIP A small red dot to the right of the assignment menu indicates that an image is the current selected source for a background or layer. This helps to make sure that you don't accidentally change a still which is currently on air and makes it easy to identify which still will be used for the next transition.

3 If you are using still images for both the background or layer destinations, then you can choose to add a dissolve transition between the two images. To set the duration of the transition use the transition slider. Dissolve transitions can be between 0 and 10 seconds long in 0.25 second increments.

4 Once you have assigned your still images, click on the 'close' button to close the media window.

To perform a cut or transition between backgrounds or layers you can use the 'background switch' or 'layer switch' button in the function bar of Ultimate Software Control.

TIP When you save a preset your Ultimatte will save any assignments that you have made in the media pool. Keep reading this manual for more information on saving and loading presets.

Supported File Formats for Stills

The Ultimatte media pool can use many different file formats including TGA, PNG, BMP, JPEG and TIFF. Embedded alpha channels are supported in TGA, TIFF and BMP file formats.

Stills Background and Layer Options

Once you have assigned a still image to a background or layer, you have the following options:

• Use the RGB content of the still as a background and use the alpha channel of the still as a background matte. If the still doesn't contain an alpha channel, Ultimatte will assign a solid white matte.
• Use the RGB content of the still as a background and do not use the alpha channel as a background matte. You can do this by disabling the Background Matte In option in Ultimatte Software Control.

TIP Still images used for holdout and garbage mattes need to be grayscale, single channel images.

Source Supported formats
Background TGA, TIFF, BMP, PNG, JPG
Background and Background Matte TGA, TIFF, BMP
Layer TGA, TIFF, BMP, PNG, JPG
Layer and Layer Matte TGA, TIFF, BMP
Garbage Matte TIFF, BMP, PNG, JPG
Holdout Matte TIFF, BMP, PNG, JPG

Ultimate Compositing Workflow

Now that you have an auto key established, you can start finressing and refining your composite using Ultimatte's features and settings.

As you refine your composite, it is helpful to move back and forth between monitoring the combined matte view and the program output so you can optimize the matte, plus see how it is working in the final composite.

When adjusting controls, it's worth mentioning that you can restore any control back to its default state by double clicking the respective control. You can also save your workflow to quick presets. As you change settings and make improvements, it's helpful to switch between save points to compare and assess what has changed in order to achieve the best possible settings.

To save a quick preset using Ultimatte Software Control, click the 'quick preset' menu at the top of the screen and choose a save option. To load a quick preset simply choose a load option from the quick preset menu.

Use the preset menu to save and load quick presets

If your Ultimatte has numbered buttons on the control panel, you can also use these to recall a quick preset.

On Smart Remote 4, hold down the 'alt' button on the left side of the panel and press a quick save button. To load a quick preset, press the desired quick load button.

TIP For models with a built in control panel, quick presets are saved in Ultimatte's internal memory, so they will be available after you have power cycled the unit.

On Ultimatte 12 quick presets are saved in volatile memory so they are only available until you power down your Ultimatte.

Quick Guide to Building a Composite

This is a basic introduction to performing a fast composite. You will notice while reading this section that occasionally a feature will be specific to a particular Ultimatte model.

With all sources connected to the main unit, the first step is to make sure the backing color is correctly set. The default backing color is green, but you can set it to red or blue, depending on which color you are using on set.

If you are using a green screen, you don't need to change the backing color as green is already set by default. Clicking the 'auto key' button will perform an automatic composite and generate a matte from your green screen.

TIP An automatic composite will also take place when power cycling your Ultimatte.

Setting the Foreground Backing Color

The backing color defines the color Ultimatte will use to generate the matte. Typically, the color used for most screens for compositing is green, and this is why green is the default backing color. However, there are occasions on set where red or blue may be a better choice based on the color of the foreground objects. In this event, you will need to tell Ultimatte to use a different backing color.

To set the backing color:

1 Click the 'settings' menu button to open the settings.
2 In the functions section, choose the red, green or blue backing buttons to select your desired backing color. You will now see the backing color indicator in the status bar change to the corresponding backing color.
Select a red, green or blue backing color from the functions area.

When the backing color is set, Ultimatte will perform an automatic composite and you will see the results on the program output and Ultimatte's front panel LCD. In the monitor output area, select the program output and the image will appear on the monitor connected to the monitor output.

Setting Screen Correction

Screen correction can be helpful if there are strong variations in your backing screen, or the lighting on the backing screen is uneven.

If your camera is static and you can remove all the foreground objects from the scene, you can perform a screen correction. This shows Ultimatte what the screen looks like by itself, and then once all elements are replaced, Ultimatte can then analyze what has changed in the foreground and will generate an optimized matte. This can help tidy up any areas that are not behaving in your matte.

To perform a screen correction:

1 Remove all the foreground elements in your scene so only the backing screen is visible.
2 Select the 'matte' settings from the main menu buttons.
3 In the 'groups' section, select 'matte process'.

4 In the functions area, click the 'screen capture' button. This stores a snapshot of the green screen which Ultimatte uses to generate the screen correction.

5 Now replace all the foreground elements into your scene.
6 Click the 'screen correct' button.

Your Ultimatte will now analyse the foreground elements against the captured image and determine the optimized matte.

NOTE When using the screen correction feature, it's best to perform this function once the camera is set and in place, because once the camera moves, screen correction will no longer be effective and you will need to reapply the screen correction.

Setting the Matte Density

If the matte needs some refinement, the first step is to adjust the matte density. This improves the black areas of the matte so it is opaque. Any gray areas inside the black matte will cause the background to show through the foreground in those areas.

To adjust the matte density:

1 Select the 'matte' menu button to open the matte settings.
2 Rotate the matte density control knob counterclockwise to decrease the matte density until you start seeing the gray areas inside the black silhouette.
3 Now increase the matte density setting until the gray areas are no longer visible. Be sure to stop adjusting as soon as the gray areas disappear. This is because the least amount of adjustment will result in a more convincing composite. This is true for most controls when refining your composite.

You should now see a near perfect composite on the program output. Now you can use the additional matte settings, foreground, background, and layer settings to refine your composite.

Perfecting your Composite

After your initial key is generated, you may want to add further refinements to make your composite even more convincing. Ultimatte's advanced keyer has powerful tools to let you enhance the composite, perfect the matte edges, color correct each layer, plus blend backgrounds, foregrounds and layers together in very realistic ways. The tools are there for you to use and we encourage you to investigate them and experiment so you can make the most of your Ultimatte and achieve extremely realistic composites.

This section includes a brief outline of the prominent keying and compositing tools available and the order in which they are often used. It's worth mentioning that when adjusting some controls, the smallest change can make best results and you may need to make minor readjustments to some settings as you change others. Achieving the perfect key can be an art form using finesse and dexterity.

1 Matte Adjustments - Further perfect the internal matte using the black gloss settings for eliminating highlights that are keying in the darker areas of the foreground.
As you adjust the matte controls, you may notice a fine white haze over your composite. This is the result of tiny changes to the environment, such as dust accumulating over time, or scuff marks occurring as crew make changes on set. Use the 'veil' settings to help remove the white haze, if the details are too prominent you may also need to clean the set or repaint patches of the blue or green screen.
2 Clean Up Adjustments - Use the clean up settings to remove imperfections in your blue or green screen such as scuff marks, seams, unwanted shadows, electronic noise and screen residue. Adjusting the clean up settings will electronically clean your screen, we recommend using these controls sparingly as they can produce a hard edged, cutout look to the final composited image if used broadly.
3 Flare - Ultimatte performs spill suppression automatically when keying the foreground. Spill is when the green screen reflects onto the foreground elements, causing them to shift their color in unpleasant ways. The flare controls can help refine the spill suppression to further restore the foreground items' original color.
4 Ambiance - Adjust the ambiance controls to add subtle color influences from the background to the foreground layer, helping the foreground subject realistically blend into its environment.

5 Color Correction - Independently adjust brightness, color, contrast and saturation for the different layers in your composite to increase their realistic blend. It's best to make color, brightness and saturation changes to the foreground image using Ultimatte's color correction settings rather than changing camera settings such as lens aperture. This is because any change to the camera will also affect the key.

6 Additional Background and Layer Settings - Use the additional background and layer settings to add elements such as lighting effects to your composition. For example, you can create spotlight effects that shine down on you talent by using an image connected to the layer input that is designed for a spotlight effect. You can then blend that image into the foreground layer.

7 Additional Matte Input Settings - Add additional mattes to your composition, for example a garbage matte to remove unwanted foreground elements from your composition, or a hold out matte to tell Ultimatte to ignore areas of the foreground you don't want to key. You can build a rough window using Ultimatte's 'window' controls in the matte input settings, or assign a custom matte image loaded in the media pool for more precision.

There are many more advanced settings and tools you can use to improve the mattes, strengthen the key, blend layers and generally build and finesse your final composite. Details on how to use all the tools are provided throughout the rest of this manual so you can explore your Ultimatte with confidence.

Advanced Ultimatte Controls

This section contains information about all the settings in Ultimatte Software Control and how to use them to operate your Ultimatte and refine and improve your composite.

Adjusting Matte Controls

Matte Density

As described in the previous section, the matte density setting lets you strengthen the general opacity of the black areas of the matte, preventing areas of the background to show through the foreground. This setting should always be adjusted first when perfecting your composite after applying screen correction. The steps below include the additional steps of switching between the monitor output and the program output so you can see both the matte and the combined composite.

To adjust the matte density:

1 Select 'matte' in the main menu buttons.
2 In the 'monitor out' section, click on 'combined matte'. You will see the foreground subject appear as a black silhouette on a white field.
3 Using the control knob, decrease the matte density until you see details within the black start to become gray. Now increase the setting until the gray areas change to black.
4 Select the program output in the monitor out settings.

Any show through that was present prior to adjusting matte density should now be almost, or completely, gone.

Black Gloss

Sometimes there may be dark areas of your foreground that have bright highlights which are reflecting the backing color. These highlights can appear gray in your matte, which will cause those areas in your foreground image to become transparent in your composite. The black gloss setting helps to remove these areas from the matte.

Increase the black gloss setting while observing the combined matte output until these reflective areas are no longer visible in the matte.

TIP If the matte is already opaque and there are no highlights showing, it's worth decreasing the black gloss level until you see the highlights, then increasing and stopping as soon as they are no longer visible. This is because the lowest setting that can be achieved will result in the cleanest, most convincing composite. This is true for many of the matte controls.

Red, Green and Blue Density

As matte density and black gloss settings are increased, dark edges can form around foreground objects. To compensate, the density of the color channels surrounding the edge of the foreground objects can be adjusted.

For example, if your backing color is green, the colors available to adjust are red and blue. If your backing color is red, the adjustable colors are green and blue. Adjusting these fine color density controls can help clean up dark edges.

Matte Reset

Click this button to restore all the matte controls that affect the foreground elements to their default settings. The matte settings that affect the green screen area, for example clean up and veil settings, will not be changed.

Clean Up Settings

Imperfections in your blue or green screen such as scuff marks, seams, unwanted shadows, electronic noise, and screen residue are visually the same as fine details in the foreground. As a result, these imperfections will also be visible in your final composited picture.

Adjusting the following controls will electronically clean your screen, but at the expense of the finest detail on the edges of the foreground elements. We recommend using these controls sparingly as they can produce a hard edged, cutout look to the final composited image. To determine the best settings, switch your monitor view between combined matte and program out as your make adjustments.

To adjust the clean up settings:

1 While viewing combined matte, the screen area is represented as white. Adjust the clean up controls so that the screen area is as close to white as possible without eliminating important detail.
2 View program out to make sure that you haven't eliminated too much of the fine detail.

The goal is to set these controls to the lowest possible value while ensuring the final picture is not missing subtle details such as fine wisps of hair, shadows, or reflections.

TIP Don't get too focused on getting a perfect clean matte. Some imperfections like slight scuff marks or electronic noise might actually look appropriate in the final composited image, particularly if the background scene is a computer generated, pristine image.

The clean up settings are interactive. Therefore, increasing one might allow you to decrease one or more of the others. You'll notice the greatest effect in the green screen area, but you might also see a slight effect on the foreground elements.

Clean Up Level Increase or decrease to reduce or eliminate imperfections in the blue or green screen.

Clean Up Dark Recover Use this control to recover shadows or edge detail on darker colored elements that were reduced or eliminated by clean up level.

Clean Up Light Recover Increase this setting to recover edge detail on lighter colored elements that were reduced or eliminated by clean up level.

Clean Up Strength Use this control to add more strength to clean up light recover.

Clean Up Reset Click the clean up reset soft button to restore all clean up controls to their default settings.

Veil Settings

At this point while you are optimizing your matte, you may notice a fine white haze over your final composited image. The haze can sometimes appear as a general haze, or localized in patches corresponding to the screen area of the foreground source.

The white haze is known as 'veil' and you can minimize it by adjusting the veil settings. As you make adjustments, switch your monitor view between fill output and program out to determine the best veil settings.

Master Veil Increase or decrease to remove neutral colored veil over your program or fill output.

Red, Green, and Blue Vell Adjust these controls respectively when you see a colored haze over the program output.

Veiling can become more pronounced over the course of the day as your blue or green floor gets dirtier or dustier. We recommend wearing slippers when not shooting if crew and talent are walking on the blue or green screen. Repainting of the screen may become necessary to remove permanent dirt and marks.

Shadow Level and Shadow Threshold

If you want your shadows in the foreground source to be more or less pronounced in your final composite, increase or decrease the shadow level. The shadow threshold setting is used to help separate unwanted dark screen areas from shadows.

Matte Process/Screen Correction

Depending on the conditions of your green screen, the backing color may not be consistent which can reduce the effectiveness of the matte. If you are seeing noise or artifacts in your matte that you can't solve using the general matte settings, and you have access to an image of just the green screen without foreground objects, then you can use screen correction to improve the matte.

To set screen correction:

1 Remove all the foreground objects in your scene so only the green screen is visible.
2 Click on the 'screen capture' button so Ultimatte can store a snapshot of the green screen.
3 Now replace all the foreground objects in your scene.
4 Click the 'screen correct' button.

You should now see a general improvement in your matte and final composite.

NOTE Screen correction only works with static camera shots. This feature is the best choice for improving areas in the backing screen, and clean up controls can be used as a last resort if areas still need improvement.

Matte Correct Horizontal Size

'Matte correct H size' analyzes all horizontal matte transitions, based on the size selected in number of pixels, and applies the appropriate amount of correction to the horizontal transitions which may need modification.

Unlike regular matte sizing, which slightly reduces the overall size of the matte, the 'matte correct' control selectively corrects only transitions which are not optimally corrected.

The 'matte correct H size' setting indicates the number of pixels within which the system will analyze every transition. When the size is set to 0, no correction is applied.

Matte Correct Vertical Size

'Matte correct V size' analyzes all vertical matte transitions, based on the size selected in number of lines, and applies the appropriate amount of correction to the vertical transitions which need modification.

The 'matte correct V size' display indicates the number of lines within which the system will analyze every transition. When the size is set to 0, no correction is applied.

Screen Sample

When Ultimatte creates the matte for the foreground, it automatically samples the backing color in the foreground image to achieve the best matte. If varying shades remain visible in the matte, you can set your Ultimatte to use single or dual sampling which can help achieve better results.

Single Sampling

Single sampling lets you manually select a single area of the foreground green screen with a small box cursor. Ultimatte then assesses the color in that region and optimizes the sampling of the backing color using that region.

To use single sampling:

1 Go to the screen sample settings in the 'matte' menu.
2 Click the wall cursor position button. Your view will change to the foreground input and a small box cursor will appear on the screen.
3 Adjust the cursor horizontal and vertical position using the control knobs to move the cursor to a spot on the wall near important detail. This can often be hair. Be sure to avoid areas that contain detail that you want to retain.
4 Click the 'sample wall' button to save these screen values as your new reference. Your view will switch back to the monitor out setting you were last using.

Dual Sampling

Depending on the lighting conditions and your green screen, the floor area may appear at a different luminance or shade of green compared to the walls which may affect the quality of your matte when using the default auto sampling or manual single sampling.

To help Ultimatte achieve the best matte, you can select dual sampling and position two separate cursors.

To use dual sampling:

1 Go to the screen sample settings in the 'matte' menu and click on 'dual cursor' to enable dual sampling mode.
2 Click the wall cursor position button. Your view will change to the foreground input and two small box cursors will appear on the screen.
3 Adjust the horizontal and vertical position of the first cursor using the control knobs to move the cursor to a spot on the wall near important detail. This can often be hair. Be sure to avoid areas that contain detail that you want to retain.

4 Click 'sample wall'. Notice that 'floor cursor position' is now enabled and the floor cursor position is automatically available for you to adjust. Make your desired changes to the second cursor position. For best results, select an area on the floor where you see lighting glare or veiling, and avoid shadow areas that you want to retain in the matte.
5 Click on 'sample floor'. Your selection will save these screen values as your new reference and the view will switch back to the monitor out setting you were last using.

Filter

The filter settings let you remove ringing artifacts that may appear in the transition edges, plus provides noise reduction and noise generation settings to help blend foreground and background elements together.

4:2:2 Correction level

In a Y,Cb,Cr 4:2:2 video image, objects with high contrast and sharp transitions can exhibit a small edge artifact when used for green screen compositing. This is due to the reduced bandwidth of the Cb and Cr color difference channels.

For example, a dark colored foreground object with sharp transitions shot against a bright green screen will show an overshoot and an undershoot at the transitions. This is known as ringing. These ringing artifacts are shades of black and white and will be treated as foreground objects when processed, similar to gray strands of hair. When the green screen color is removed and replaced by a dark background, a dark foreground object will show bright gray edges at the transitions.

The 4:2:2 correction feature eliminates or reduces the ringing artifacts. No foreground object detail is lost in this process.
4:2:2 correction is set to 100% by default. To make an adjustment, decrease the setting while monitoring the program output until you notice the ringing artifact appear in the composite, then gradually increase until it is no longer visible.

Noise Reduction/Generation

All video recorded using a video camera will contain a minor level of noise in the image. When composited with pristine, noise free graphics generated by a computer, the difference between sources can be noticeable.

To help blend elements, Ultimatte has noise reduction and noise generation settings that let you clean noise from the foreground, and add noise to the clean areas of your composite. For example, noise can be generated in the background or layer source, or areas of the foreground that have been masked by a garbage matte.

There are two types of noise reduction. Median, and average.

To reduce noise:

1 Toggle between the average and median noise reduction types by clicking the selection button on the left side of the functions section.
2 Now click the corresponding setting next to the selection button to set a noise reduction level. Click multiple times to gradually increase the level. There are four levels of noise reduction to choose from.

To generate noise:

1 Click on the 'noise cursor' button in the functions section to enable the cursor on the foreground source.
2 Using the cursor position controls, place the cursor on an area of the foreground that displays the most prominent noise.
3 Click on the 'noise select' button.
4 Click on the 'noise gen' button to enable noise generation.
5 Increase or decrease the amount of noise generation using the 'noise gen level' control.

Matte Reset

The matte reset button restores all matte controls, including matte density, black gloss, color density, and shadow settings to their default settings. These default settings could be factory set or user set values. For more information on customizing your Ultimatte, refer to the 'saving and managing presets' section.

NOTE Matte reset does not sample the backing for new reference color values. The current values are used to recalculate spill suppression with any adjusted background settings.

Matte Button

Click this button to disable or enable the matte generation and flare settings. The default setting of this button is 'enabled'.

Cursor Position Last

When this button is enabled, the cursor will return to the horizontal and vertical positions where it was last used. This mode is helpful when studio cameras are mounted on robotics systems and could be programmed to go to the same starting position, thus allowing the same exact sampling locations to be used again. When you save a preset file, cursor location is also saved.

When disabled, the location of the cursor will always return to a default horizontal and vertical position toward the top left hand corner of the image, regardless of the previously used sampling location.

Auto Screen Sample

Auto screen sample is the default method of scanning, analyzing, and determining reference backing color levels. Using this method, the matte signal is analyzed to detect the most predominant highest level, which will correspond to the brightest and purest area of the backing. Auto screen sample will also be performed during all of the functions listed below:

Main unit power up, system reset, backing color select, and auto key.

Adjusting Foreground Flare Controls

Your Ultimatte automatically analyzes the backing color reflecting onto foreground objects and removes the effect of the bounce color in the final composite. This is called spill suppression. The process of spill suppression can affect certain colors in the foreground. The colors affected will vary depending on the backing color you are using. If you need to make color adjustments to restore the original color of foreground elements, the results of spill suppression can be adjusted using the flare controls.

Flare 1 Settings

Cool

Restores cooler colors, such as blue, green and cyan.

Skin Tone

Restores the color of natural skin tones that may have been changed by spill suppression.

Light Warm

When advanced flare is enabled, this setting recovers lighter, warmer colors, such as red, yellow and orange. This setting interacts with the skin tones setting.

Black, Gray and White Balance

Use this setting to color correct the spill suppression in the tonal regions of the foreground, such as the shadows, mid tones and highlights.

Flare Level

When advanced flare controls are enabled, this setting adjusts the overall amount of spill suppression for certain foreground colors.

Holdout Matte Flare Button

When a holdout matte is used to stop the compositing process in portions of the foreground scene, spill suppression on the foreground becomes slightly more complicated. In some situations, removing spill suppression from the entire scene would result in a more convincing look. In other situations, no spill suppression in the holdout matte area would be the best choice.

When holdout matte flare is disabled, spill suppression is not performed in the holdout matte region. When enabled, spill suppression is removed from the entire foreground scene.

Flare 2 Settings

Flare Correct Horizontal or Vertical Size

Flare correction analyzes the spill suppression in the transition areas and lets you make subtle corrections. For example, neutralizing small color discrepancies, or luminance variations that may be affecting fine edges in the transition area.

You can adjust the size of the area around the pixels of interest that Ultimatte will use to analyze the spill suppression. This area is defined via pixel width and line height. When the size is set to 0, no flare correction is applied.

Dark Warm

When advanced flare is enabled, this control can help to restore brown colors, for green screen, and purple colors, for blue screen. This control interacts with skin tones settings.

Flare Reset

Click this button to reset all flare controls to their default settings, depending on the backing color selected.

Advanced Flare

Click this button to toggle the advanced flare controls on or off.

Adjusting Foreground Ambiance Controls

To make a composite more convincing, it is important that the foreground subject fits seamlessly into its new background environment. The 'ambiance' feature in Ultimatte analyzes the colors of the background and foreground layers, and automatically adds subtle color influences from the background into the foreground layer. This feature is enabled by default.

The ambiance controls also allow you to set the amount of influence that the background has on the foreground layer, and finesse the color balance.

To make foreground ambiance changes:

1 Select 'foreground' in the main menu buttons.
In the 'groups' section, click on 'ambiance 1' or 'ambiance 2' to access these menus.

Ambiance reset

Click the 'ambiance reset' button to reset all ambiance controls to their default settings.

Ambiance

Use this button to disable or enable the ambiance feature. The default setting of this button is 'enabled'.

Ambiance 1 Settings

The ambiance controls will add very subtle amounts of color from the background, simulating reflected ambient light from the background source.

Ambiance Level Red, Green, Blue

Adjust these settings to increase or decrease effects of the red, green and blue components of the background ambiance that will influence the foreground color levels.

Ambiance Level Master

This setting adjusts the overall level of the ambiance that will influence the foreground color levels. When adjusting this control, the relative difference between the ambiance red, green, and blue components will be maintained.

Ambiance Strength

This setting adjusts the strength of the ambiance that will influence the main area of the foreground subject, compared to the transition areas from the foreground subject to the background scene. At its maximum setting, the ambiance will have full influence on the main area as well as the transition region, while at the minimum setting, the ambiance will have no influence in the main area while having a stronger influence in the transition regions.

Direct Light Mix

This setting controls the proportion by which the foreground subject will be influenced by the ambiance colors and user adjustable direct lighting. At the maximum setting, the foreground subject is influenced entirely by the direct light controls, and at its minimum setting, the foreground subject is influenced entirely by the ambiance colors.

Vertical Blur

This setting determines the number of averaged lines in the background used in ambulance calculations. Depending on the background scene, reducing this control could introduce streaking on the foreground layer.

Ambiance 2 Settings

The direct light controls will make more aggressive changes to the foreground image, simulating light that is directly from a position in the front of the foreground subject.

Direct Light Red, Green, Blue

Adjust these settings to increase or decrease the impact of red, green and blue components of the direct light that will influence the foreground color levels.

Adjusting Brightness, Color, Contrast and Saturation

As you build your composite, you will likely want to make adjustments to the luminance, color, contrast, and saturation levels for your sources which can help improve your composite. For example, if the foreground, background and layer elements seem to differ in levels compared to accompanying composited layers, you can perform an independent color adjustment using the master controls for each source. All the same luminance, color balance, contrast, and saturation settings are available for each source.

White Level Master

If a source seems too bright or too dark for the adjoining scene in the composite, adjust the white level control to alter the brightness of the source rather than adjusting the original input source level. Altering the level at the input source, for example the camera exposure, can adversely affect the generation of the matte signal.

The default setting of the white level control is neutral at 100% . The range of the control is from 0% to 200% . When adjusting the white level master, the relative difference between the white level red, green, and blue components will be maintained.

In normal white range mode the main unit will clip the output so the signal cannot exceed standard limits. All Ultimatte models, except Ultimatte 12 also feature an extended white range mode, in this mode all signals exceeding 100% will pass through unclipped. For more information on output range, refer to the 'settings' section.

Black Level Master

The master black control adjusts the level of black in the source image without altering the white level. Adjusting the black level can often produce a more convincing composite image, if the black levels in the background scene differ from those in the foreground.

When adjusting the black level master, the relative difference between the black level red, green, and blue components will be maintained. Ultimatte will clip black levels at zero so they do not exceed standard broadcast limits.

Contrast Master

The contrast master control adjusts the overall contrast level of the source in the composite without affecting the quality of the composite. For example, if the lighting contrast in the foreground scene does not match that of the background scene, adjusting this control may produce a more convincing composite image.

The contrast setting does not affect the strength of black and white levels, but only changes the contrast of the gamma, or mid level gain, in the source image.

When adjusting the contrast master, the relative difference between the contrast red, green, and blue components will be maintained.

Saturation Master

The saturation master control adjusts the saturation level of the selected source colors without affecting the generation of the matte signal. For example, if the saturation of the colors in the background scene does not appear to match the saturation of the foreground colors, adjusting this control may produce a more convincing composite.

The saturation master control can completely remove all color from the source image and produce a monochrome, or black and white, foreground composited with a color background image.

When adjusting the saturation master, the relative difference between the saturation red, green, and blue components will be maintained.

Advanced Contrast Crossover Master

When the 'advanced contrast' button is enabled in the functions section, contrast adjustment characteristics will acquire an "S" shape curve. The crossover point of the "S" shape can be moved by the source 'contrast crossover' master control.

Fade Control

A fade control is available for the foreground, background and layer sources. This setting lets you fade the foreground or layer source, if enabled, until it is no longer visible.

When the primary matte is disabled in the matte settings, you can use this feature to fade between the foreground source and background source to line up props or set items in the foreground with the background source.

When adjusting the fade or fade-mix control from 0% to 100% , the selected source will gradually fade until no longer visible.

Color Correcting Black and White Levels

The 'black/white level' menu for each background, foreground and layer source lets you make specific color corrections to the black level and white level. By adjusting the respective red, green and blue color correction controls you can adjust each respective color level without altering the overall gain.

TIP Any adjustments to color for the black and white level will only occur after the matte signal generation and will not affect the source.

Adjusting Color Contrast and Saturation

The 'contrast/saturation' menu provides controls to adjust contrast for each color channel in the selected source. Adjusting the contrast control for each channel will increase or decrease the amount of contrast in the gamma, or mid level gain.

When the 'advanced contrast' button is enabled in the functions section, contrast adjustment characteristics will acquire an 'S' shape curve. The crossover point of the 'S' shape can then be moved by the source 'contrast crossover' control. This gives you greater control over how contrast affects the gamma tonal region.

Color Reset

If at any time you want to restore the color correction back to its default state, simply click on the color reset button in the functions section.

Source Freeze Button

If you are working with still graphics as your sources, this feature allows for greater flexibility. You can take a still image from each source by clicking the respective 'freeze' button in the functions section. This stores a still frame in temporary memory which you can use as the source.

The freeze feature can be helpful if you have limited playback equipment. For example, you can save a still from a playback source graphic, then on the same playback deck, load a different source and plug it into a different source input on your Ultimatte. This effectively doubles the amount of sources you can use with your playback equipment.

Additional Background Settings

Background Filter

In many situations, particularly with computer generated backgrounds, the graphics will appear too sharp compared to the foreground subjects. Sometimes, this sharpness can cause aliasing artifacts if the antialIASing filters are not set properly in the background rendering system.

Advancing the background filter control will gradually apply a horizontal low pass filter to the background scene, minimizing aliasing artifacts.

Background Gradient

Enabling this button will replace the background video with an internally generated horizontal gradient signal. This gradient signal can be used to better demonstrate the impact of background color controls on the background image.

Test Signal

This setting lets you use a colored field as the background in the final composite.

Background Switch

If you have still sources assigned to both backgrounds one and two in the media pool, clicking this button will switch between them.

Additional Layer Settings

Test Signal

This setting lets you use a colored field as the layer source in the final composite.

Lighting

Green screens are best optimized when lit flat in neutral light so there are minimal changes in color and brightness. This can add interesting challenges if you want to create lighting effects on the set as the lighting can spill onto the green backing affecting the strength of your key.

As a helpful and convincing alternative, you can use the lighting feature to simulate lighting effects in your composite. For example, you may have pillars of atmospheric spotlights shining down on your talent. By using an image connected to the layer input that is designed for a spotlight effect, you can blend that image into the foreground layer. You can even create an animated image that lets you create dynamic moving lighting effects that are very realistic.

The lighting feature is most realistic when the lighting image used for the foreground lighting effect is also integrated into the background layer when designing your background image. This lets both the foreground and background share the effect which makes the overall simulation more convincing.

To enable the lighting feature, select 'layer' from the main menu and then 'lighting' from the 'groups' menu. Now select 'lighting' from the 'functions' menu.

Lighting Control Knobs

Minimum Level

This control determines a mixture of the level of the 'lighting' input and an internal lighting level setting. The range of the minimum level control is from 0% to 100% , with the default setting at 25% .

At 0% , the lighting of the foreground subjects is entirely controlled by the 'lighting' input image. At 100% , the lighting of the foreground subjects is entirely controlled by the lighting level R/G/B and Master Controls settings.

Color can be added to the Minimum Level by adjusting the Lighting Level Red/Green/Blue and Master controls.

Lighting Level - Red/Green/Blue

This controls the red/green/blue components of the 'minimum lighting' as it is applied to the foreground subjects. The control range is from 0% to 200% , with the default setting at 100% .

Lighting Level - Master

The master control adjusts all three 'minimum lighting' level R/G/B controls simultaneously while maintaining their individual setting relationships.

Layer Color Controls

When the 'lighting' feature is enabled, the 'layer white level, Black Level, Contrast, and Saturation controls will make corresponding adjustments to the Lighting Input image.

For a detailed description of these controls, see Adjusting Brightness, Color, Contrast and Saturation section of the manual.

Layer Input

Enabling this function allows the layer elements to be added to the composite scene.

Layer Input Realistic/Linear/Additive

This function selects between three modes of combining the layer input elements with the foreground objects and the background scene in the composite image.

Realistic

Most accurate method of combining colored transparent and semi transparent layer elements, as well as opaque layer elements, with the foreground objects and the background scene.

NOTE When using a layer source graphic in realistic layer mode with semi transparent objects, the image source background needs to be 100% white. The RGB elements in the source layer should not be premultiplied by its matte. All feathering of transition regions along edges of the matte should be within the boundaries of the layer elements. For example, make sure feathered edges do not extend into the white backing region of the source image.

Linear

Traditional method of combining opaque layer elements with the foreground objects and the background scene in the composite image. This method will not produce accurate results with transparent colored layer elements. This method should be selected if the layer elements are not premultiplied.

Additive

Traditional method of combining opaque layer elements with the foreground objects and the background scene in the composite image. This method will not produce accurate results with transparent colored layer elements and should be selected if the layer elements are premultiplied.

TIP Clicking the auto key' button will not change the layer input mode.

Layer Switch

If you have sources assigned to both layers one and two in the media pool, clicking this button will switch between them.

Matte Input Settings

Blackmagic Ultimatte can accept four different matte inputs, each assigned to a specific function.

These 4 matte inputs are:

• Background matte
• Garbage matte
  Holdout matte
• Layer matte

Background Matte

The background matte is associated with certain elements in the background scene that need to be treated as their own layer. By converting these background elements into layer elements, they can be moved in the layering order in front of the foreground objects. These background elements that are converted to layer elements can only be opaque elements.

Garbage Matte

The garbage matte is associated with the boundaries of the foreground screen. It is used to artificially extend the screen area, so that the background scene can be added in these areas. The garbage matte should have a large soft transition area, from black to white, so that the garbage matte blends better with the real screen area.

If foreground objects enter these soft transition areas of the garbage matte, these objects will gradually become transparent and mixed with the background scene until they are fully faded out.

In an alternate process, Blackmagic Ultimatte can gradually apply the garbage matte clean up function in the soft transition areas so that the foreground objects can still enter these transition areas without becoming transparent.

Holdout Matte

The holdout matte is associated with elements of foreground objects which have similar colors as the screen color. The holdout matte can be used to prevent these portions of foreground object areas with similar color as the screen from becoming partially or fully transparent.

Additionally, the holdout matte can be used to retain or remove the foreground object colors that are similar to the screen color.

Layer Matte

The layer matte is associated with the 'layer in' elements. The layer matte is used to determine the opacity of the corresponding 'layer in' source. The layer elements associated with the layer matte could be opaque or can have varying levels of transparency with different colors.

Window

The window setting lets you create internally generated mattes with rectangular proportions. The resulting window can be used as a rough garbage matte, allowing you to exclude certain areas from the foreground image. Enable window by clicking the 'window' button, then set the input source you want to apply the window to by clicking the respective matte button in the functions section of Ultimatte Software Control.

Adjust the positioning of the window edges using the following controls:

Window Position Top, Bottom, Left and Right

These knobs adjust the position of the top, bottom, left and right edges of the window. The default position is beyond the edge of the frame. As it is dialed in, the edge moves into the frame and goes all the way to the opposite position of the frame.

Window Softness Top, Bottom, Left and Right

Sometimes you may want to reduce the harshness of a window edge in the garbage matte. To do this, increase the softness control for the window edge you want to adjust. The default position is beyond the edge of the frame. As it is dialed in, the edge moves into the frame and goes all the way to the opposite position of the frame.

Window Skew

The window skew function allows you to create an internally generated window matte with non-rectangular proportions. Using the skew controls, you can tilt and rotate each edge of the window independently to create a rough garbage matte, to exclude certain areas from the foreground image.

Enable window skew by clicking the 'window skew' button, then adjust the skew for each edge using the control knobs.

Adjust the skew of the window edges using the following controls:

Window Skew Top, Bottom, Left, Right

These knobs adjust the skew of the top, bottom, left and right edges of the window.

Window Skew Offset Top, Bottom, Left, Right

As it is dialed in, the skewed window edge moves into the frame and goes all the way to the opposite position of the frame.

Transition Rate

This control sets the rate, in number of frames, by which the objects in the background scene, defined by the background matte and the layer input elements, will move in front of or behind each other in the composited image.

When the transition rate is set to 1, the changes in the layering order will be an abrupt cut. When the rate is increased, the transition will be a smooth mix dissolve. The maximum transition rate is 120 frames.

The transitions are initiated by selecting one of up to six different layering orders defined in the functions section.

Setting the Layer Order

In the functions section you will see buttons that indicate the layer order. These buttons determine the order of how the foreground source, background source, and the layer source elements are arranged in your composite. The buttons available will depend on which mattes you have enabled.

The first name in a button is the top element in the layering order, and the last name is bottom element. For example, you'll notice that the background is always the bottom element in the scene.

When both background matte elements and layer source elements are used, the 6 possible combinations are:

FG/LYIN/BGLY/BG

Foreground source as the top layer, followed by the layer source elements, followed by the background layer elements separated from the background source, then followed by the background source.

LY IN / FG / BG LY / BG

The layer source is the top layer, followed by the foreground source, followed by the background layer separated from the background source, then followed by the background source.

LYIN/BGLY/FG/BG

The layer source is the top layer, followed by the background layer elements separated from the background source, followed by the foreground objects, then followed by the background source.

BGLY/LYIN/FG/BG

The background layer elements separated from the background source are the top layer, followed by the layer source, followed by the foreground source, then followed by the background source.

BG LY / FG / LY IN / BG

In this combination, the background layer elements separated from the background source are the top layer, followed by the foreground source, followed by the layer source, then followed by the background source.

FG/BGLY/LYIN/BG

In this combination, the foreground source is the top layer, followed by the background layer elements separated from the background source, followed by the layer source, then followed by the background source.

When only the background layer is used via a background matte, the 2 possible combinations are:

FG/BGLY/BG

The foreground source is the top layer, followed by the background layer elements separated from the background source, then followed by the background source.

BGLY/FG/BG

In this combination, the background layer elements separated from the background source are in the top layer, followed by the foreground source, then followed by the background source.

When only the layer input is used, the 2 possible combinations are:

FG/LY IN/BG

The foreground source is the top layer, followed by the layer source, then followed by the background source.

LYIN/FG/BG

In this combination, the layer source is in the top layer, followed by the foreground source, then followed by the background source.

Settings

The settings section in Ultimatte Software Control lets you change video settings, access the media pool and make adjustments to the inputs and outputs.

System

The system menu lets you select your Ultimatte's video format, change color space settings and set the 3G-SDI output level.

Video Format

Select your video format from the menu, or set it to 'auto detect'.

3G SDI Outputs

Ultimatte will detect a level A or level B 3G-SDI input automatically. The output is set to level B by default, but you can change it to level A if needed.

To change the 3G-SDI output to level A or B:

1 Go to the 'settings' menu in Ultimatte Software Control.
2 Click on the 'system' button. A window will appear with checkboxes for level A and Level B 3G-SDI.
3 Select the desired level checkbox, then click 'apply' to confirm the setting. Click 'close' to exit the window.

HD/UHD Color Space

All Ultimatte models, except Ultimatte 12 HD Mini support Rec. 2020 color gamut for both HD and Ultra HD. When Rec. 2020 is selected, all input signals must comply with Rec. 2020, and all output signals will conform accordingly. When your Ultimatte detects standard definition, it will automatically set the color gamut to Rec. 601 so you don't have to change the setting when using SD video.

To set the color space:

1 Go to the 'settings' menu in Ultimatte Software Control.
2 Click on the 'system' button. A window will appear with checkboxes for Rec. 709 and Rec. 2020
3 Choose the color space you want to use, then click 'apply' to confirm the setting. Click 'close' to exit the window.

Media

The media button gives you access to the media setup settings. Click the media setup button to open the media pool window, you can then upload still images to the media pool and assign images as sources using the 'assignment' tab. For more information, refer to the 'using the media pool' section.

Inputs

The inputs menu gives you access to the timing controls if you need to delay the foreground input to be syncsed with the background signal and to make subtle timing corrections to a source input signal.

Frame Delay Foreground Input

This control will set the number of frame delays to the foreground input. The control range is from 0 frames to 14 Frames.

In a 4:2:2 signal, the relative timing samples between luma and the chroma, or Y and UV respectively, are well defined. However, some cameras might have some amount of relative luma or chroma timing error. When viewed on a monitor as red, green or blue only, the image will look like an 'embossed' picture. This timing error will cause unnatural transitions and off color edges.

If there are no adjustments in the camera to correct the timing, Ultimatte's inputs menu gives you access to the timing controls if you need to make subtle timing corrections to a source input signal.

Foreground Input U Position

This control will only adjust the U timing relative to Y in sub pixel values. The maximum range of adjustment is +/- 2 pixels.

Foreground Input V Position

This control will only adjust the V timing relative to Y in sub pixel values. The maximum range of adjustment is + / - 2 pixels.

Foreground Input UV Position

This control will adjust both the U and V timing relative to Y in sub pixel values. The relative difference between U and V will be maintained. The maximum range of adjustment is +/- 2 pixels.

Outputs

The output configuration settings let you customize the appearance of the outputs and route certain outputs to help your workflow. For example, setting the talent output to mirror, or routing the monitor output to the program output. Some of the output settings are dependant on the Ultimatte model you are using.

You can also enable the powerful cascade monitoring feature which lets you view the program output for multiple Ultimatte units via one single unit as soon as you select a unit to control in Ultimatte Software Control.

Talent Highlight Level

This control adjusts the amount of highlight applied to the image viewed on the talent output areas where background mattes, garbage mattes, holdout mattes and layer mattes are used.

Matte Out Level

Internal to the unit, the matte signal is set so that fully opaque foreground objects are at 0% black and peak backing areas are at 100% white. The matte out level of 100% white is set at 940 for a 10-bit output. Similarly, 0% black is set at 64.

NOTE The 'matte out invert' function will invert the polarity of the matte out.

The matte out level adjusts the level of the matte out from the white end. This control can lower the matte out level to 0% or push it into the legal ceiling.

Monitor to Program

In most situations, it is advantageous and safe not to be able to switch the program output to other views. However, there are times when the program out view needs to be changed from the composited image to another view. For example, the matte view. For these few instances, it is possible to route the monitor output to the program output.

When 'monitor to program' is enabled, the program output will show the same view selections made in the monitor output. Disabling monitor to program will return the program output to its previous setting.

Fill Linear Mix Correct

If the system you are using to combine the matte and fill outputs does not have an 'additive mix' capability, for example linear mix only, the composite image can have dark edges due to a second processing of the processed foreground image. Enabling the setting marked 'Fill Lin Mix Cor' will minimize potential artifacts caused by the second processing of the foreground image. Use this setting when you are sending the matte and fill to an external device for final mixing, for example a broadcast switcher.

Talent Mirror

Selecting this option will horizontally mirror the program image viewed on the talent output.

The talent monitor output is used for the foreground subjects on the set to see themselves inserted in the new background scene. By providing the capability to horizontally mirror the viewed image, the talent can have a more natural feedback when seeing themselves on the monitor.

Monitor to Talent

When 'monitor to talent' is enabled, the talent output will show the same view selections made in the monitor output. Disabling the monitor to talent will return the talent output view to its previous setting.

Output Range

With normal video signal levels, the maximum white level is specified at 100% , and any signal levels above that level will usually be limited to 100% . In extended video levels, the maximum white level is allowed to exceed 100% .

Ultimatte 12 always uses 'normal white range' mode. All other Ultimatte models use 'normal white range' mode by default, or you can switch on 'output full range' to enable 'extended white range' mode. This applies to the foreground, background and layer inputs and outputs. Matte inputs and matte output maintain normal white range for both modes.

In normal white range mode, any input signal levels exceeding 100% will be clipped to that level at the output. Additionally, color adjustments applied to the video signals, for example white levels, that can take signal levels above 100% will be limited to that level at the outputs.

In extended white range mode, all input signal levels exceeding 100% will pass through the system unclipped. Also, color adjustments applied to the video signals will allow output levels to exceed 100% .

Matte Out Invert

Enabling this function will invert the polarity of the matte out signal.

Output Offset

The output offset control allows you to adjust the output reference timing relative to the foreground or analog reference input to match the timing of various devices in large systems.

Monitor Cascade

The monitor cascade feature can be accessed from the 'information' symbol on the right side of the menu name section of Ultimatte Software Control. You can find the setting under the 'configuration' tab.

When the monitor cascade feature is disabled, the monitor output will be the view selected by the monitor out options. For a single Blackmagic Ultimatte unit, the monitor output can be connected to a video monitor directly. Typically, if there are multiple Blackmagic Ultimatte units, the monitor output for each unit can be connected to a routing switcher for monitoring multiple outputs.

Alternately, with multiple Blackmagic Ultimatte units, they can be daisy chained via their monitor inputs and outputs, with the last unit plugged into a monitor. Then when you select a unit in Ultimatte Software Control, the monitor output for that unit can be viewed on that monitor. This is an efficient and powerful way to monitor the output from up to eight Ultimatte units via one single unit.

To connect four units for cascade monitoring:

1 Connect each Ultimatte unit to an analog reference source or to foreground sources that are locked together.
2 Connect the first unit's monitor output to the monitor input of the second unit.
3 Connect the monitor output of the second unit to the monitor input of the third unit.
4 Connect the monitor output of the third unit to the monitor input of the fourth unit.
5 Connect the monitor output of the fourth unit to a monitor.

When the monitor cascade feature is enabled, the viewed image on the video monitor will be of the unit that is selected in Ultimatte Software Control as the currently active unit. When the unit selection is changed, the image viewed on the video monitor will change to the monitor out of the selected unit.

On Air Settings

The on air settings let you enable on air indicators for the status bar, LCD display and set your Ultimatte to lock its controls when the unit is on air.

NOTE These controls only work when tally signals are connected to the GPIO input and properly configured from the external tally generator on all models except Ultimatte 12 HD Mini. Ultimatte 12 HD Mini can receive tally signals via the HDMI PGM output or SDI Return input.

On Air

When this button is enabled, the unit indicator in the Ultimatte Software Control status bar will illuminate red when on air. The unit identification number above its selection button will also illuminate red.

On Air Lock

When enabled, the on air lock feature will lock all the controls for the unit currently on air. This helps to prevent any accidental changes to a unit that is live on air.

GPI and Tally Settings

These settings enable or disable tally signals when connected to an external GPI and tally interface. Tally lets you monitor on air indicators so you know when an Ultimatte unit is currently on air. GPI inputs and outputs let you trigger Ultimatte preset files as GPI events, similar in nature to loading and running macros.

GPIO MENU

The GPI inputs allow external devices to trigger saved setup files in each input in a predetermined order. The maximum number of events is defined by the number of GPI inputs, therefore the number of events you can use is five.

It is also possible for the main unit to trigger events in other devices using the GPI output. This triggering can be done manually, or upon loading a file if the GPI output was saved as part of that file.

GPI OUT Delay Frames

This control knob sets the delay, in number of frames, between triggering the event and the execution of the GPI output switch closure. The maximum delay is 120 Frames.

GPI Functions Buttons

You can use the GPI functions buttons to add a GPI output to the current workspace settings, toggle between low and high GPI output states and provide a programmable state output.

GPI Output Save

In order to initiate a GPI output upon loading a file, the appropriate instructions must be saved as part of that file. When 'GPI out save' is selected, the instructions to trigger a GPI output will become part of the current workspace settings. When the current workspace settings are saved as a setup file, the instructions to trigger the GPI output are saved with this file.

When the saved file, which includes the triggering instructions, is loaded into the current workspace, the triggering instructions will initiate the proper GPI output sequence.

GPI Out Low/High

Clicking this button toggles the GPI output state between low and high.

GPI Out

This provides a programmable state output, whose width and level are dependent on the GPI out low/high setting and GPI out delay adjustment.

GPI Setup Menu

From the GPI setup menu, you can choose GPI files from the list of previously saved setup files and load them into each GPI input. You can step through each file to verify that the selected files were the correct ones, and that the sequence by which these files were listed was correct. If needed, you can edit each GPI list by removing, adding, or inserting any number of files.

GPI 1 to 5

These windows allows the user to set up the files in the order by which they will be loaded when triggered by the signal connected to each respective GPI input.

Add

With each click, this button will add the highlighted file in the files list to the selected GPI events list.

Remove

Click on this button to remove a highlighted file from the selected GPI events list.

Remove All

This button will remove all the files from the selected GPI events list.

Step

Click this button to move down through the highlighted file selection and automatically load the selected file into the current work space. Any file on the GPI events list can be highlighted and loaded in the current work space by touching the corresponding file name.

Reset

Clicking this button will select the top file from the GPI files list without loading the first file.

The first file will be loaded when the first GPI pulse is detected.

GPI Input Enable

This checkbox enables or disables individual GPI inputs separately based on the setting of the GPI input select control.

GPI High Enable

Enables the software to detect either low to high or high to low transitions of the GPI inputs.

The GPI inputs are triggered by the logic level of the input signal, not by the transition edges. If GPI high enable is checked, the selected input will be triggered by a high logic state. If GPI high is not checked, the selected input will be triggered by a low logic state.

GPI IN Delay

This is a delay between detecting a GPI input and that of actual execution of the GPI list. The GPI input delay can be set at different values for each input. The maximum delay is 120 Frames.

Close

Selecting this button will close the window and exit the GPI setup menu.

Setting Up a GPI Event List

To set up an event list, preset files must be previously created and saved. Refer to the 'saving and managing presets' section for more information.

1 Click on the 'settings' menu button and select GPIO in the groups section. Click the GPIO setup' button and the GPIO setup window will be displayed.
2 From the tabs, select a GPI number from 1 to 5 to be used. If the selected GPI number was used before, the event list will show the previously selected files.

Monitor Out Settings

This selection will show all the viewing options available. The button name will be changed to 'return' which you can click on to go back to the previous menu. Monitor out settings configure the output from the 'monitor out' connector.

Monitor Highlight Level Control

This control adjusts the amount of highlight applied to the image viewed on the monitor output in the areas where background matts, garbage matts, holdout matts and layer matts are used.

Monitor Setting Buttons

The monitor setting buttons allow you to change the matte view and select individual color channels to view independently.

Matte View Range

The quality of images viewed on video monitors depends on the monitor's brightness and contrast setup. In many situations, the detail information in the very dark and very bright portions of an image is sacrificed so that the rest of the image can have a more pleasant look. The levels in a matte image cover the whole brightness gamut and most of the matte controls are adjusted while observing matte levels near the darkest or the brightest end.

For this reason, it is difficult to adjust the matte accurately while looking at a monitor and observing the darkest and brightest portions of the images.

Enabling the 'matte view range' function will raise the black level and reduce the white level of the matte signal so that detail information in the blackest and whitest sections of the matte can be viewed accurately on a monitor.

Reducing the range of the matte on the monitor output has no effect on any internal processing or the signal levels of the matte out.

Matte View Invert

When combined matte view or internal matte view is selected as the monitor output, the matte polarity can be reversed by the matte view invert function.

Monitor Out RGB

When selected, the monitor output will show all three color channels of the image viewed.

Monitor Out Red, Green and Blue

All three color channels can also be viewed independently. When the respective color channel button is enabled, the monitor output will only show that particular color channel as a black and white image. This can be helpful to spot noise, which is predominantly in the blue channel.

Custom Monitor Output Menu

The monitor out section of Ultimatte Software Control provides six soft buttons which switch the view on Ultimatte's monitor output. These six soft buttons can be customized using the 'custom monitor out' settings.

The first two soft buttons in the functions area of the interface are labeled 'standard' and 'inputs'. These let you set the labels of the buttons to the standard default Ultimatte monitor output buttons, or you can match the buttons to the respective inputs. When inputs is selected, you can easily monitor every source by clicking the respective input button.

Below is the configuration for each setting:

Standard	Inputs
PGM Out	BG In
FG In	Layer In
BG In	BG Matte In
Combined Matte	Garbage Matte In
Internal Matte	Holdout Matte In
Fill Out	Layer Matte In

You can also create up to four custom monitor out buttons. These can be set to show your favorite views in the order of your choosing.

To configure a custom monitor output button:

1 In the 'matte' settings, click the 'custom monitor out' button in the groups Section.
2 Click on the 'configure' button in the groups section.
3 In the dialog box, select any of the tabs labeled MONITOR OUT 1, 2, 3, and 4.

Developer Information

Controlling Ultimatte using Telnet

The Blackmagic Ultimatte 12 Ethernet Protocol gives you the freedom to build your own custom control solutions for your Ultimatte 12. For example, you can create your own software application and control your Ultimatte via Ethernet from your computer.

The first step is to connect your Ultimatte to your computer via Ethernet. You can do this by connecting Ultimatte to the same network your computer is connected to, or you can connect Ultimatte directly to your computer.

NOTE If your Blackmagic Ultimatte is connected directly to your computer, set your computer to a manual static IP address. Set the first three blocks of numbers in the IP address to match your Ultimatte and set the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0. You can leave the gateway or router setting blank as it will not be used in a direct connection between your computer and Ultimatte.

If your network settings are set correctly, you can now open the Terminal application on Mac OS, or enable Telnet command line utilities on Windows and enter Ultimatte control protocol commands. These commands can be programmed into your application and triggered by related items on a custom user interface of your own design.

Below is a basic example of using Telnet to change the backing color, restore to factory defaults, and adjust the matte density control.

1 In the Terminal application, type the following:

telnet (IP address of main unit (space) port number)(enter)

For example: telnet 192.168.10.220 9998

Press 'enter'.

A list of status information will appear and you are ready to control your Ultimatte.

2 Now type the following:

control: (press enter)

backing color: blue (press enter twice)

Terminal will acknowledge the action with 'ack' and confirm it so you know your setting has been performed.

You have now changed Ultimatte's backing color to blue.

3 To restore to factory defaults, type the following:

control: (press enter)

factory defaults: yes (press enter twice)

This restores your Ultimatte to factory default settings and performs an automatic composite.

4 To adjust the matte density setting, type the following:

control: (press enter)

matte density: 273 (press enter twice)

Terminal will acknowledge and confirm the action.

You have now adjusted the matte density setting.

5 To exit Telnet

Hold down the control button and press the 'J' key. The Telnet prompt will appear.

Type the following:

quit press enter)

A status message will appear confirming the connection is closed.

Blackmagic Ultimatte 12 Ethernet Protocol

Version 2.0

If you are a software developer you can use Ultimatte Ethernet Protocol to construct devices that integrate with our products. Here at Blackmagic Design our approach is to open up our protocols and we eagerly look forward to seeing what you come up with!

Overview

The Blackmagic Ultimatte Ethernet Protocol is a text based protocol that is accessed by connecting to TCP port 9998 on an Ultimatte.

Ultimatte sends information in blocks. Each block has an identifying header in all caps, followed by a full colon. A block spans multiple lines and is terminated by a blank line. Each line in the protocol is terminated by a newline character.

Upon connection, the Ultimatte device sends a complete update of its status. After the initial status transmission, status updates are sent every time the Ultimatte device's status changes.

To be resilient to future protocol changes, clients should ignore blocks they do not recognize, up to the trailing blank line. Within existing blocks, clients should ignore lines that they do not recognize.

Protocol Preamble

The first block sent by Ultimatte is always the protocol preamble:

PROTOCOL PREAMBLE: Version: 2.0

The version field indicates the protocol version. When the protocol is changed in a backwards compatible way, the minor version number will be updated. If incompatible changes are made, the major version number will be updated.

Identity

The next block contains information about the device identity.

ID EN T IY:  
Model: Ultimatte 12 8K  
Label: Ultimatte 12 8K  
Unique ID: 12345678 

Network Information

There are two network blocks. The first describes the general network information and the second describes the network interface details.

NETWORK: Interface count: 1 Default Interface: 0 Static DNS Ser vers: 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4 Cu rrent DNS Ser vers: 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4

Static A dd resses: 10.0.0.2/255.255.255.0
Static Gate w ay: 10.0.0.1

Version Information

The version information describes the hardware and software version numbers and identifiers of the device. For example, the "Product ID" field contains the hexadecimal USB Product Identifier.

VERSION: Product ID: BE84 Hardware Version: 0100 Software Version: 09A89B7A Software Release: 2.Q 

Device Information

The next block contains general information about the connected Ultimatte device.

NOTE Some Ultimatte models will only have a subset of the above-mentioned inputs.

For example, the Ultimatte 12 HD Mini only has the following inputs:

• Foreground input (FG In), and
  Background input (BG In).

Similarly, the Ultimatte 12 HD only has the following inputs:

• Foreground input (FG In),
  Background input (BG In),
  Garbage Matte input (GMATTE In),
  Holdout Matte input (H MATTE In),
  Monitor Input (MONITOR In), and
  Reference Input (REF In).

Video Formats Information

The Video Formats blocks lists the video formats supported by the device. See the Video Format Control list to find the formats supported by each device.

VIDEO FORMATS: auto detect 525.59.94 NTS C 4:3 625i50 PAL 4:3 720p60 720p60 

Initial Status Dump

The next eleven blocks provide the control values, control default values, current file, file list, the GPI lists, the Frame Buffer Image List and Frame Buffer State.

CONTROL:  
Matte Density: 0  
Red Density: 0  
Green Density: 0  
...(Full list in Controls section)

File 2 

NOTE The Ultimatte 12 HD Mini does not have GPI inputs, so this block is not available on that device.

The IMAGE LIST block contains the filenames of images that are currently stored on the device. These images can be assigned to Frame Buffer inputs.

IM AGE LIST:  
Image 1  
Image 2 

The FRAME BUFFER block contains the status of the Frame Buffers on the device.

This information will show:

How many image buffers are available,
- whether a frame buffer is enabled and has an image buffer assigned to it, and
- how frame buffer transitions are set up for those frame buffers that support transitions.

NOTE Frame Buffer Duration time is in milliseconds.

FRAME BUFFER: Number Of Frame Buffers: 46 BG 1 Frame Buffer Enable: off BG 1 Frame Buffer Index: 0 LY 1 Frame Buffer Enable: off LY 1 Frame Buffer Index: 0 BG 2 Frame Buffer Enable: off BG 2 Frame Buffer Index: 0 LY 2 Frame Buffer Enable: off LY 2 Frame Buffer Index: 0 GM Frame Buffer Enable: off GM Frame Buffer Index: 0 HM Frame Buffer Enable: off HM Frame Buffer Index: 0 BG Frame Buffer Mix: 0 LY Frame Buffer Mix: 0 BG Transition Duration: 0 LY Transition Duration: 0 Frame Buffer 1: Image 1 Frame Buffer 2: Image 2 ...

End Prelude

The final block of the status dump sent by Ultimatte is always end prelude:

END PRELUDE:

Status Updates

When any Control is changed on an Ultimatte device, the Ultimatte device replies with the applicable status block to all connected clients, containing only the items that have changed. For example, if Matte Density has been changed, the following block will be sent:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 0 

If multiple items are changed, multiple items may be present in the update:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 0 Red Density: 0

These notifications are sent whether the change originated from the front panel, or from any other connected client.

Requesting Changes

To update a Control the client should send a block of the same form Ultimatte sends when its status changes. For example, to change Matte Density to 100, the client should send the following block:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 100 

The block must be terminated by a blank line. On receipt of a blank line, Ultimatte will either acknowledge the request by responding:

ACK←  
← 

or indicate that the request was not understood by responding:

NAK 

After a positive response, the client should expect to see a status update from Ultimatte showing the status change. This is likely to be the same as the command that was sent, but if the request could not be performed, or other changes were made simultaneously by other clients, there may be more updates in the block, or more blocks. Simultaneous updates could cancel each other out, leading to a response that is different to that expected.

In the absence of simultaneous updates, a simple control change will result in the following protocol exchange:

CONTROL:
Matte Density: 0 ACK
CONTROLC:
Matte Density: 0

The asynchronous nature of the responses means that a client should never rely on the desired update actually occurring and must simply watch for status updates from Ultimatte and use only these to update its local representation of Ultimatte's state.

A client may also request Ultimatte to change a control by a relative amount. For example, to change Matte Density by 10, the client should send the following block:

CONTROL:  
Offset Matte Density: 10 

Only controls with numerical ranges support this relative mode.

Requesting a Status Dump

The client may request that Ultimatte resend the complete state of any status block by sending the header of the block, followed by a blank line. In the following example, the client requests Ultimatte resend the control status:

CONTROL: ACK

CONTROL:  
Matte Density: 0  
Red Density: 0  
Green Density: 0  
... (Full list in Controls section) 

File System

The client may request that Ultimatte load, save, delete, or rename a file. To load a file the client should send the following block:

FILE:
Load:

Ultimatte will respond with an ACK followed by a Current File block or a Message block.

To save, delete, or rename a file the client should send one of the following blocks:

FILE:  
Save: <filename>  
<  
FILE:  
Delete: <filename>  
<  
FILE:  
Rename: <filename>  
To: <filena me>  
< 

In each case Ultimatte will respond with an ACK followed by a File List block or a Message block.

GPI Event List

The client may request that Ultimatte add, insert or remove an event to a GPI Event List by sending an Insert GPI Event or Remove GPI Event command, followed by a blank line.

For example, to insert an event, the client should send the following block:

GPI:  
ID: 1  
Insert: <filename>  
At: -1 {The insertion index. A '-1' represents the end of the list} 

To remove an event a client would send the following block:

GPI:  
ID: 1  
Remove: 1 ← {Event index to remove. A '0' will delete all events} 

To set the current event index a client would send the following block:

GPI: ID: 1 Index: 1

Ultimatte will respond with an ACK message followed by either a GPI List Block or a Message Block.

GPI LIST:  
ID: 1  
Index: 0  
File 1  
File 2  
...  
or  
MESSAGE:  
Warning: Event limit exceeded 

Frame Buffer

The client may request that the Ultimatte device assign a pre-loaded image from its Media Pool into a particular frame buffer and enable/disable the frame buffer. To assign and enable an image to the BG frame buffer the following commands are required:

FRAME BUFFER:←

BG 1 Frame Buffer Index: 1 BG 1 Frame Buffer Enable: on-

To disable the frame buffer only the enable command is required:

FRAME BUFFER: BG1FrameBufferEnable:on

NOTE The Telnet interface does not currently provide loading or removing images in the Media Pool. This has to be done from either a Smart Remote 4, or using the Software Control application. Refer to the 'using the media pool' section of this manual for more information.

Camera Control

Ultimatte 12 HD Mini can be used to control an attached camera via SDI or HDMI, please refer to the 'Camera Control via Ultimatte 12 HD Mini' section for more information. For SDI Camera Control, the Ultimatte device's Camera ID may be changed using the CAMERACONTROL block:

CAMERACONTROI CameraId:1← 

NOTE This control block is only available on the Ultimatte 12 HD Mini.

This is the best way to use the basic operation of the computer. The computer can be used in a variety of applications, such as for example in the classroom, at home, at work, at school, at school and at home.

The Blackmagic Ultimatte 12 Ethernet Protocol gives you the freedom to build your own custom control solutions for your Ultimatte 12. For example, you can create your own software application and control your Ultimatte via Ethernet from your computer.

The first step is to connect your Ultimatte to your computer via Ethernet. You can do this by connecting Ultimatte to the same network your computer is connected to, or you can connect Ultimatte directly to your computer.

NOTE If your Blackmagic Ultimatte is connected directly to your computer, set your computer to a manual static IP address. Set the first three blocks of numbers in the IP address to match your Ultimatte and set the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0. You can leave the gateway or router setting blank as it will not be used in a direct connection between your computer and Ultimatte.

If your network settings are set correctly, you can now open the Terminal application on Mac OS, or enable Telnet command line utilities on Windows and enter Ultimatte control protocol commands. These commands can be programmed into your application and triggered by related items on a custom user interface of your own design.

Below is a basic example of using Telnet to change the backing color, restore to factory defaults, and adjust the matte density control.

1 In the Terminal application, type the following:

telnet (IP address of main unit (space) port number)(enter)

For example: telnet 192.168.10.220 9998

Press 'enter'.

A list of status information will appear and you are ready to control your Ultimatte.

2 Now type the following:

control: (press enter)

backing color: blue (press enter twice)

Terminal will acknowledge the action with 'ack' and confirm it so you know your setting has been performed.

You have now changed Ultimatte's backing color to blue.

3 To restore to factory defaults, type the following:

control: (press enter)

factory defaults: yes (press enter twice)

This restores your Ultimatte to factory default settings and performs an automatic composite.

4 To adjust the matte density setting, type the following:

control: (press enter)

matte density: 273 (press enter twice)

Terminal will acknowledge and confirm the action.

You have now adjusted the matte density setting.

5 To exit Telnet

Hold down the control button and press the 'J' key. The Telnet prompt will appear.

Type the following:

quit press enter)

A status message will appear confirming the connection is closed.

Blackmagic Ultimatte 12 Ethernet Protocol

Version 2.0

If you are a software developer you can use Ultimatte Ethernet Protocol to construct devices that integrate with our products. Here at Blackmagic Design our approach is to open up our protocols and we eagerly look forward to seeing what you come up with!

Overview

The Blackmagic Ultimatte Ethernet Protocol is a text based protocol that is accessed by connecting to TCP port 9998 on an Ultimatte.

Ultimatte sends information in blocks. Each block has an identifying header in all caps, followed by a full colon. A block spans multiple lines and is terminated by a blank line. Each line in the protocol is terminated by a newline character.

Upon connection, the Ultimatte device sends a complete update of its status. After the initial status transmission, status updates are sent every time the Ultimatte device's status changes.

To be resilient to future protocol changes, clients should ignore blocks they do not recognize, up to the trailing blank line. Within existing blocks, clients should ignore lines that they do not recognize.

Protocol Preamble

The first block sent by Ultimatte is always the protocol preamble:

PROTOCOL PREAMBLE: Version: 2.0

The version field indicates the protocol version. When the protocol is changed in a backwards compatible way, the minor version number will be updated. If incompatible changes are made, the major version number will be updated.

Identity

The next block contains information about the device identity.

ID EN T IY:  
Model: Ultimatte 12 8K  
Label: Ultimatte 12 8K  
Unique ID: 12345678 

Network Information

There are two network blocks. The first describes the general network information and the second describes the network interface details.

NETWORK: Interface count: 1 Default Interface: 0 Static DNS Ser vers: 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4 Cu rrent DNS Ser vers: 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4

Static A dd resses: 10.0.0.2/255.255.255.0
Static Gate w ay: 10.0.0.1

Version Information

The version information describes the hardware and software version numbers and identifiers of the device. For example, the "Product ID" field contains the hexadecimal USB Product Identifier.

VERSION: Product ID: BE84 Hardware Version: 0100 Software Version: 09A89B7A Software Release: 2.Q 

Device Information

The next block contains general information about the connected Ultimatte device.

NOTE Some Ultimatte models will only have a subset of the above-mentioned inputs.

For example, the Ultimatte 12 HD Mini only has the following inputs:

• Foreground input (FG In), and
  Background input (BG In).

Similarly, the Ultimatte 12 HD only has the following inputs:

• Foreground input (FG In),
  Background input (BG In),
  Garbage Matte input (GMATTE In),
  Holdout Matte input (H MATTE In),
  Monitor Input (MONITOR In), and
  Reference Input (REF In).

Video Formats Information

The Video Formats blocks lists the video formats supported by the device. See the Video Format Control list to find the formats supported by each device.

VIDEO FORMATS: auto detect 525.59.94 NTS C 4:3 625i50 PAL 4:3 720p60 720p60 

Initial Status Dump

The next eleven blocks provide the control values, control default values, current file, file list, the GPI lists, the Frame Buffer Image List and Frame Buffer State.

NOTE The Ultimatte 12 HD Mini does not have GPI inputs, so this block is not available on that device.

The IMAGE LIST block contains the filenames of images that are currently stored on the device. These images can be assigned to Frame Buffer inputs.

IM AGE LIST:  
Image 1  
Image 2 

The FRAME BUFFER block contains the status of the Frame Buffers on the device.

This information will show:

How many image buffers are available,
- whether a frame buffer is enabled and has an image buffer assigned to it, and
- how frame buffer transitions are set up for those frame buffers that support transitions.

NOTE Frame Buffer Duration time is in milliseconds.

FRAME BUFFER: Number Of Frame Buffers: 46 BG 1 Frame Buffer Enable: off BG 1 Frame Buffer Index: 0 LY 1 Frame Buffer Enable: off LY 1 Frame Buffer Index: 0 BG 2 Frame Buffer Enable: off BG 2 Frame Buffer Index: 0 LY 2 Frame Buffer Enable: off LY 2 Frame Buffer Index: 0 GM Frame Buffer Enable: off GM Frame Buffer Index: 0 HM Frame Buffer Enable: off HM Frame Buffer Index: 0 BG Frame Buffer Mix: 0 LY Frame Buffer Mix: 0 BG Transition Duration: 0 LY Transition Duration: 0 Frame Buffer 1: Image 1 Frame Buffer 2: Image 2 ...

End Prelude

The final block of the status dump sent by Ultimatte is always end prelude:

END PRELUDE:

Status Updates

When any Control is changed on an Ultimatte device, the Ultimatte device replies with the applicable status block to all connected clients, containing only the items that have changed. For example, if Matte Density has been changed, the following block will be sent:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 0 

If multiple items are changed, multiple items may be present in the update:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 0 Red Density: 0 

These notifications are sent whether the change originated from the front panel, or from any other connected client.

Requesting Changes

To update a Control the client should send a block of the same form Ultimatte sends when its status changes. For example, to change Matte Density to 100, the client should send the following block:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 100 

The block must be terminated by a blank line. On receipt of a blank line, Ultimatte will either acknowledge the request by responding:

ACK←  
← 

or indicate that the request was not understood by responding:

NAK 

After a positive response, the client should expect to see a status update from Ultimatte showing the status change. This is likely to be the same as the command that was sent, but if the request could not be performed, or other changes were made simultaneously by other clients, there may be more updates in the block, or more blocks. Simultaneous updates could cancel each other out, leading to a response that is different to that expected.

In the absence of simultaneous updates, a simple control change will result in the following protocol exchange:

CONTROL:
Matte Density: 0 ACK
CONTROLC:
Matte Density: 0

The asynchronous nature of the responses means that a client should never rely on the desired update actually occurring and must simply watch for status updates from Ultimatte and use only these to update its local representation of Ultimatte's state.

A client may also request Ultimatte to change a control by a relative amount. For example, to change Matte Density by 10, the client should send the following block:

CONTROL:  
Offset Matte Density: 10 

Only controls with numerical ranges support this relative mode.

Requesting a Status Dump

The client may request that Ultimatte resend the complete state of any status block by sending the header of the block, followed by a blank line. In the following example, the client requests Ultimatte resend the control status:

CONTROL: ACK

CONTROL:  
Matte Density: 0  
Red Density: 0  
Green Density: 0  
... (Full list in Controls section) 

File System

The client may request that Ultimatte load, save, delete, or rename a file. To load a file the client should send the following block:

FILE:
Load:

Ultimatte will respond with an ACK followed by a Current File block or a Message block.

To save, delete, or rename a file the client should send one of the following blocks:

FILE:  
Save: <filename>  
<  
FILE:  
Delete: <filename>  
<  
FILE:  
Rename: <filename>  
To: <filena me>  
< 

In each case Ultimatte will respond with an ACK followed by a File List block or a Message block.

GPI Event List

The client may request that Ultimatte add, insert or remove an event to a GPI Event List by sending an Insert GPI Event or Remove GPI Event command, followed by a blank line.

For example, to insert an event, the client should send the following block:

GPI:  
ID: 1  
Insert: <filename>  
At: -1 {The insertion index. A '-1' represents the end of the list} 

To remove an event a client would send the following block:

GPI:  
ID: 1  
Remove: 1 ← {Event index to remove. A '0' will delete all events} 

To set the current event index a client would send the following block:

GPI: ID: 1 Index: 1

Ultimatte will respond with an ACK message followed by either a GPI List Block or a Message Block.

GPI LIST:  
ID: 1  
Index: 0  
File 1  
File 2  
...  
or  
MESSAGE:  
Warning: Event limit exceeded 

Frame Buffer

The client may request that the Ultimatte device assign a pre-loaded image from its Media Pool into a particular frame buffer and enable/disable the frame buffer. To assign and enable an image to the BG frame buffer the following commands are required:

FRAME BUFFER:←

BG 1 Frame Buffer Index: 1 BG 1 Frame Buffer Enable: on-

To disable the frame buffer only the enable command is required:

FRAME BUFFER: BG1FrameBufferEnable:on

NOTE The Telnet interface does not currently provide loading or removing images in the Media Pool. This has to be done from either a Smart Remote 4, or using the Software Control application. Refer to the 'using the media pool' section of this manual for more information.

Camera Control

Ultimatte 12 HD Mini can be used to control an attached camera via SDI or HDMI, please refer to the 'Camera Control via Ultimatte 12 HD Mini' section for more information. For SDI Camera Control, the Ultimatte device's Camera ID may be changed using the CAMERACONTROL block:

CAMERACONTROI CameraId:1 

NOTE This control block is only available on the Ultimatte 12 HD Mini.

The Blackmagic Ultimatte 12 Ethernet Protocol gives you the freedom to build your own custom control solutions for your Ultimatte 12. For example, you can create your own software application and control your Ultimatte via Ethernet from your computer.

The first step is to connect your Ultimatte to your computer via Ethernet. You can do this by connecting Ultimatte to the same network your computer is connected to, or you can connect Ultimatte directly to your computer.

NOTE If your Blackmagic Ultimatte is connected directly to your computer, set your computer to a manual static IP address. Set the first three blocks of numbers in the IP address to match your Ultimatte and set the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0. You can leave the gateway or router setting blank as it will not be used in a direct connection between your computer and Ultimatte.

If your network settings are set correctly, you can now open the Terminal application on Mac OS, or enable Telnet command line utilities on Windows and enter Ultimatte control protocol commands. These commands can be programmed into your application and triggered by related items on a custom user interface of your own design.

Below is a basic example of using Telnet to change the backing color, restore to factory defaults, and adjust the matte density control.

1 In the Terminal application, type the following:

telnet (IP address of main unit (space) port number)(enter)

For example: telnet 192.168.10.220 9998

Press 'enter'.

A list of status information will appear and you are ready to control your Ultimatte.

2 Now type the following:

control: (press enter)

backing color: blue (press enter twice)

Terminal will acknowledge the action with 'ack' and confirm it so you know your setting has been performed.

You have now changed Ultimatte's backing color to blue.

3 To restore to factory defaults, type the following:

control: (press enter)

factory defaults: yes (press enter twice)

This restores your Ultimatte to factory default settings and performs an automatic composite.

4 To adjust the matte density setting, type the following:

control: (press enter)

matte density: 273 (press enter twice)

Terminal will acknowledge and confirm the action.

You have now adjusted the matte density setting.

5 To exit Telnet

Hold down the control button and press the 'J' key. The Telnet prompt will appear.

Type the following:

quit press enter)

A status message will appear confirming the connection is closed.

Blackmagic Ultimatte 12 Ethernet Protocol

Version 2.0

If you are a software developer you can use Ultimatte Ethernet Protocol to construct devices that integrate with our products. Here at Blackmagic Design our approach is to open up our protocols and we eagerly look forward to seeing what you come up with!

Overview

The Blackmagic Ultimatte Ethernet Protocol is a text based protocol that is accessed by connecting to TCP port 9998 on an Ultimatte.

Ultimatte sends information in blocks. Each block has an identifying header in all caps, followed by a full colon. A block spans multiple lines and is terminated by a blank line. Each line in the protocol is terminated by a newline character.

Upon connection, the Ultimatte device sends a complete update of its status. After the initial status transmission, status updates are sent every time the Ultimatte device's status changes.

To be resilient to future protocol changes, clients should ignore blocks they do not recognize, up to the trailing blank line. Within existing blocks, clients should ignore lines that they do not recognize.

Protocol Preamble

The first block sent by Ultimatte is always the protocol preamble:

PROTOCOL PREAMBLE: Version: 2.0

The version field indicates the protocol version. When the protocol is changed in a backwards compatible way, the minor version number will be updated. If incompatible changes are made, the major version number will be updated.

Identity

The next block contains information about the device identity.

ID EN T IY:  
Model: Ultimatte 12 8K  
Label: Ultimatte 12 8K  
Unique ID: 12345678 

Network Information

There are two network blocks. The first describes the general network information and the second describes the network interface details.

NETWORK: Interface count: 1 Default Interface: 0 Static DNS Ser vers: 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4 Cu rrent DNS Ser vers: 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4

Static A dd resses: 10.0.0.2/255.255.255.0  
Static Gate w ay: 10.0.0.1←1 

Version Information

The version information describes the hardware and software version numbers and identifiers of the device. For example, the "Product ID" field contains the hexadecimal USB Product Identifier.

VERSION: Product ID: BE84 Hardware Version: 0100 Software Version: 09A89B7 Software Release: 2.0 

Device Information

The next block contains general information about the connected Ultimatte device.

NOTE Some Ultimatte models will only have a subset of the above-mentioned inputs.

For example, the Ultimatte 12 HD Mini only has the following inputs:

• Foreground input (FG In), and
  Background input (BG In).

Similarly, the Ultimatte 12 HD only has the following inputs:

• Foreground input (FG In),
  Background input (BG In),
  Garbage Matte input (G MATTE In),
  Holdout Matte input (H MATTE In),
  Monitor Input (MONITOR In), and
  Reference Input (REF In).

Video Formats Information

The Video Formats blocks lists the video formats supported by the device. See the Video Format Control list to find the formats supported by each device.

VIDEO FORMATS: auto detect 525.59.94 NTS C 4:3 625i50 PAL 4:3 720p60 720p60 

Initial Status Dump

The next eleven blocks provide the control values, control default values, current file, file list, the GPI lists, the Frame Buffer Image List and Frame Buffer State.

NOTE The Ultimatte 12 HD Mini does not have GPI inputs, so this block is not available on that device.

The IMAGE LIST block contains the filenames of images that are currently stored on the device. These images can be assigned to Frame Buffer inputs.

IM AGE LIST:  
Image 1  
Image 2 

The FRAME BUFFER block contains the status of the Frame Buffers on the device.

This information will show:

How many image buffers are available,
- whether a frame buffer is enabled and has an image buffer assigned to it, and
- how frame buffer transitions are set up for those frame buffers that support transitions.

NOTE Frame Buffer Duration time is in milliseconds.

FRAME BUFFER: Number Of Frame Buffers: 46 BG 1 Frame Buffer Enable: off BG 1 Frame Buffer Index: 0 LY 1 Frame Buffer Enable: off LY 1 Frame Buffer Index: 0 BG 2 Frame Buffer Enable: off BG 2 Frame Buffer Index: 0 LY 2 Frame Buffer Enable: off LY 2 Frame Buffer Index: 0 GM Frame Buffer Enable: off GM Frame Buffer Index: 0 HM Frame Buffer Enable: off HM Frame Buffer Index: 0 BG Frame Buffer Mix: 0 LY Frame Buffer Mix: 0 BG Transition Duration: 0 LY Transition Duration: 0 Frame Buffer 1: Image 1 Frame Buffer 2: Image 2 ...

End Prelude

The final block of the status dump sent by Ultimatte is always end prelude:

END PRELUDE:

Status Updates

When any Control is changed on an Ultimatte device, the Ultimatte device replies with the applicable status block to all connected clients, containing only the items that have changed. For example, if Matte Density has been changed, the following block will be sent:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 0 

If multiple items are changed, multiple items may be present in the update:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 0 Red Density: 0

These notifications are sent whether the change originated from the front panel, or from any other connected client.

Requesting Changes

To update a Control the client should send a block of the same form Ultimatte sends when its status changes. For example, to change Matte Density to 100, the client should send the following block:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 100 

The block must be terminated by a blank line. On receipt of a blank line, Ultimatte will either acknowledge the request by responding:

ACK←  
← 

or indicate that the request was not understood by responding:

NAK 

After a positive response, the client should expect to see a status update from Ultimatte showing the status change. This is likely to be the same as the command that was sent, but if the request could not be performed, or other changes were made simultaneously by other clients, there may be more updates in the block, or more blocks. Simultaneous updates could cancel each other out, leading to a response that is different to that expected.

In the absence of simultaneous updates, a simple control change will result in the following protocol exchange:

CONTROL:
Matte Density: 0 ACK
CONTROLC:
Matte Density: 0

The asynchronous nature of the responses means that a client should never rely on the desired update actually occurring and must simply watch for status updates from Ultimatte and use only these to update its local representation of Ultimatte's state.

A client may also request Ultimatte to change a control by a relative amount. For example, to change Matte Density by 10, the client should send the following block:

CONTROL:  
Offset Matte Density: 10 

Only controls with numerical ranges support this relative mode.

Requesting a Status Dump

The client may request that Ultimatte resend the complete state of any status block by sending the header of the block, followed by a blank line. In the following example, the client requests Ultimatte resend the control status:

CONTROL: ACK

CONTROL:  
Matte Density: 0  
Red Density: 0  
Green Density: 0  
... (Full list in Controls section) 

File System

The client may request that Ultimatte load, save, delete, or rename a file. To load a file the client should send the following block:

FILE:
Load:

Ultimatte will respond with an ACK followed by a Current File block or a Message block.

To save, delete, or rename a file the client should send one of the following blocks:

FILE:  
Save: <filename>  
<  
FILE:  
Delete: <filename>  
<  
FILE:  
Rename: <filename>  
To: <filena me>  
< 

In each case Ultimatte will respond with an ACK followed by a File List block or a Message block.

GPI Event List

The client may request that Ultimatte add, insert or remove an event to a GPI Event List by sending an Insert GPI Event or Remove GPI Event command, followed by a blank line.

For example, to insert an event, the client should send the following block:

GPI:  
ID: 1  
Insert: <filename>  
At: -1 {The insertion index. A '-1' represents the end of the list} 

To remove an event a client would send the following block:

GPI: ID: 1 Remove: 1 {Event index to remove. A '0' will delete all events}

To set the current event index a client would send the following block:

GPI: ID: 1 Index: 1

Ultimatte will respond with an ACK message followed by either a GPI List Block or a Message Block.

GPI LIST:  
ID: 1  
Index: 0  
File 1  
File 2  
...  
or  
MESSAGE:  
Warning: Event limit exceeded 

Frame Buffer

The client may request that the Ultimatte device assign a pre-loaded image from its Media Pool into a particular frame buffer and enable/disable the frame buffer. To assign and enable an image to the BG frame buffer the following commands are required:

FRAME BUFFER:←

BG 1 Frame Buffer Index: 1 BG 1 Frame Buffer Enable: on-

To disable the frame buffer only the enable command is required:

FRAME BUFFER: BG1FrameBufferEnable:on

NOTE The Telnet interface does not currently provide loading or removing images in the Media Pool. This has to be done from either a Smart Remote 4, or using the Software Control application. Refer to the 'using the media pool' section of this manual for more information.

Camera Control

Ultimatte 12 HD Mini can be used to control an attached camera via SDI or HDMI, please refer to the 'Camera Control via Ultimatte 12 HD Mini' section for more information. For SDI Camera Control, the Ultimatte device's Camera ID may be changed using the CAMERACONTROL block:

CAMERACONTROI CameraId:1← 

NOTE This control block is only available on the Ultimatte 12 HD Mini.

The Blackmagic Ultimatte 12 Ethernet Protocol gives you the freedom to build your own custom control solutions for your Ultimatte 12. For example, you can create your own software application and control your Ultimatte via Ethernet from your computer.

The first step is to connect your Ultimatte to your computer via Ethernet. You can do this by connecting Ultimatte to the same network your computer is connected to, or you can connect Ultimatte directly to your computer.

NOTE If your Blackmagic Ultimatte is connected directly to your computer, set your computer to a manual static IP address. Set the first three blocks of numbers in the IP address to match your Ultimatte and set the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0. You can leave the gateway or router setting blank as it will not be used in a direct connection between your computer and Ultimatte.

If your network settings are set correctly, you can now open the Terminal application on Mac OS, or enable Telnet command line utilities on Windows and enter Ultimatte control protocol commands. These commands can be programmed into your application and triggered by related items on a custom user interface of your own design.

Below is a basic example of using Telnet to change the backing color, restore to factory defaults, and adjust the matte density control.

1 In the Terminal application, type the following:

telnet (IP address of main unit (space) port number)(enter)

For example: telnet 192.168.10.220 9998

Press 'enter'.

A list of status information will appear and you are ready to control your Ultimatte.

2 Now type the following:

control: (press enter)

backing color: blue (press enter twice)

Terminal will acknowledge the action with 'ack' and confirm it so you know your setting has been performed.

You have now changed Ultimatte's backing color to blue.

3 To restore to factory defaults, type the following:

control: (press enter)

factory defaults: yes (press enter twice)

This restores your Ultimatte to factory default settings and performs an automatic composite.

4 To adjust the matte density setting, type the following:

control: (press enter)

matte density: 273 (press enter twice)

Terminal will acknowledge and confirm the action.

You have now adjusted the matte density setting.

5 To exit Telnet

Hold down the control button and press the 'J' key. The Telnet prompt will appear.

Type the following:

quit press enter)

A status message will appear confirming the connection is closed.

Blackmagic Ultimatte 12 Ethernet Protocol

Version 2.0

If you are a software developer you can use Ultimatte Ethernet Protocol to construct devices that integrate with our products. Here at Blackmagic Design our approach is to open up our protocols and we eagerly look forward to seeing what you come up with!

Overview

The Blackmagic Ultimatte Ethernet Protocol is a text based protocol that is accessed by connecting to TCP port 9998 on an Ultimatte.

Ultimatte sends information in blocks. Each block has an identifying header in all caps, followed by a full colon. A block spans multiple lines and is terminated by a blank line. Each line in the protocol is terminated by a newline character.

Upon connection, the Ultimatte device sends a complete update of its status. After the initial status transmission, status updates are sent every time the Ultimatte device's status changes.

To be resilient to future protocol changes, clients should ignore blocks they do not recognize, up to the trailing blank line. Within existing blocks, clients should ignore lines that they do not recognize.

Protocol Preamble

The first block sent by Ultimatte is always the protocol preamble:

PROTOCOL PREAMBLE: Version: 2.0

The version field indicates the protocol version. When the protocol is changed in a backwards compatible way, the minor version number will be updated. If incompatible changes are made, the major version number will be updated.

Identity

The next block contains information about the device identity.

ID EN T IY:  
Model: Ultimatte 12 8K  
Label: Ultimatte 12 8K  
Unique ID: 12345678 

Network Information

There are two network blocks. The first describes the general network information and the second describes the network interface details.

NETWORK: Interface count: 1 Default Interface: 0 Static DNS Ser vers: 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4 Cu rrent DNS Ser vers: 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4

NETWORK INTERFACE 0:

Cu rre nt G ate way: 10.0.0←1  
Static A dd resses: 10.0.0.2/255.255.255.0  
Static Gate w ay: 10.0.0.1←1 

Version Information

The version information describes the hardware and software version numbers and identifiers of the device. For example, the "Product ID" field contains the hexadecimal USB Product Identifier.

VERSION: Product ID: BE84 Hardware Version: 0100 Software Version: 09A89B7 Software Release: 2.0 

Device Information

The next block contains general information about the connected Ultimatte device.

NOTE Some Ultimatte models will only have a subset of the above-mentioned inputs.

For example, the Ultimatte 12 HD Mini only has the following inputs:

• Foreground input (FG In), and
  Background input (BG In).

Similarly, the Ultimatte 12 HD only has the following inputs:

• Foreground input (FG In),
  Background input (BG In),
  Garbage Matte input (G MATTE In),
  Holdout Matte input (H MATTE In),
  Monitor Input (MONITOR In), and
  Reference Input (REF In).

Video Formats Information

The Video Formats blocks lists the video formats supported by the device. See the Video Format Control list to find the formats supported by each device.

VIDEO FORMATS: auto detect 525.59.94 NTS C 4:3625i50 PAL 4:3720p60

Initial Status Dump

The next eleven blocks provide the control values, control default values, current file, file list, the GPI lists, the Frame Buffer Image List and Frame Buffer State.

Matte Density: 0  
Red Density: 0  
Green Density: 0  
...(Full list in Controls section)

File 1  
File 2 

NOTE The Ultimatte 12 HD Mini does not have GPI inputs, so this block is not available on that device.

The IMAGE LIST block contains the filenames of images that are currently stored on the device. These images can be assigned to Frame Buffer inputs.

IM AGE LIST:  
Image 1  
Image 2 

The FRAME BUFFER block contains the status of the Frame Buffers on the device.

This information will show:

How many image buffers are available,
- whether a frame buffer is enabled and has an image buffer assigned to it, and
- how frame buffer transitions are set up for those frame buffers that support transitions.

NOTE Frame Buffer Duration time is in milliseconds.

FRAME BUFFER: Number Of Frame Buffers: 46 BG 1 Frame Buffer Enable: off BG 1 Frame Buffer Index: 0 LY 1 Frame Buffer Enable: off LY 1 Frame Buffer Index: 0 BG 2 Frame Buffer Enable: off BG 2 Frame Buffer Index: 0 LY 2 Frame Buffer Enable: off LY 2 Frame Buffer Index: 0 GM Frame Buffer Enable: off GM Frame Buffer Index: 0 HM Frame Buffer Enable: off HM Frame Buffer Index: 0 BG Frame Buffer Mix: 0 LY Frame Buffer Mix: 0 BG Transition Duration: 0 LY Transition Duration: 0 Frame Buffer 1: Image 1 Frame Buffer 2: Image 2 ...

End Prelude

The final block of the status dump sent by Ultimatte is always end prelude:

END PRELUDE:

Status Updates

When any Control is changed on an Ultimatte device, the Ultimatte device replies with the applicable status block to all connected clients, containing only the items that have changed. For example, if Matte Density has been changed, the following block will be sent:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 0 

If multiple items are changed, multiple items may be present in the update:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 0 Red Density: 0 

These notifications are sent whether the change originated from the front panel, or from any other connected client.

Requesting Changes

To update a Control the client should send a block of the same form Ultimatte sends when its status changes. For example, to change Matte Density to 100, the client should send the following block:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 100 

The block must be terminated by a blank line. On receipt of a blank line, Ultimatte will either acknowledge the request by responding:

ACK←  
← 

or indicate that the request was not understood by responding:

NAK 

After a positive response, the client should expect to see a status update from Ultimatte showing the status change. This is likely to be the same as the command that was sent, but if the request could not be performed, or other changes were made simultaneously by other clients, there may be more updates in the block, or more blocks. Simultaneous updates could cancel each other out, leading to a response that is different to that expected.

In the absence of simultaneous updates, a simple control change will result in the following protocol exchange:

CONTROL:
Matte Density: 0 ACK
CONTROLC:
Matte Density: 0

The asynchronous nature of the responses means that a client should never rely on the desired update actually occurring and must simply watch for status updates from Ultimatte and use only these to update its local representation of Ultimatte's state.

A client may also request Ultimatte to change a control by a relative amount. For example, to change Matte Density by 10, the client should send the following block:

CONTROL:  
Offset Matte Density: 10 

Only controls with numerical ranges support this relative mode.

Requesting a Status Dump

The client may request that Ultimatte resend the complete state of any status block by sending the header of the block, followed by a blank line. In the following example, the client requests Ultimatte resend the control status:

CONTROL: ACK

CONTROL:  
Matte Density: 0  
Red Density: 0  
Green Density: 0  
... (Full list in Controls section) 

File System

The client may request that Ultimatte load, save, delete, or rename a file. To load a file the client should send the following block:

FILE:
Load:

Ultimatte will respond with an ACK followed by a Current File block or a Message block.

To save, delete, or rename a file the client should send one of the following blocks:

FILE:  
Save: <filename>  
<  
FILE:  
Delete: <filename>  
<  
FILE:  
Rename: <filename>  
To: <filena me>  
< 

In each case Ultimatte will respond with an ACK followed by a File List block or a Message block.

GPI Event List

The client may request that Ultimatte add, insert or remove an event to a GPI Event List by sending an Insert GPI Event or Remove GPI Event command, followed by a blank line.

For example, to insert an event, the client should send the following block:

GPI:  
ID: 1  
Insert: <filename>  
At: -1 {The insertion index. A '-1' represents the end of the list} 

To remove an event a client would send the following block:

GPI: ID: 1 Remove: 1 {Event index to remove. A '0' will delete all events}

To set the current event index a client would send the following block:

GPI: ID: 1 Index: 1

Ultimatte will respond with an ACK message followed by either a GPI List Block or a Message Block.

GPI LIST:  
ID: 1  
Index: 0  
File 1  
File 2  
...  
or  
MESSAGE:  
Warning: Event limit exceeded 

Frame Buffer

The client may request that the Ultimatte device assign a pre-loaded image from its Media Pool into a particular frame buffer and enable/disable the frame buffer. To assign and enable an image to the BG frame buffer the following commands are required:

FRAME BUFFER:←

BG 1 Frame Buffer Index: 1 BG 1 Frame Buffer Enable: on-

To disable the frame buffer only the enable command is required:

FRAME BUFFER: BG1FrameBufferEnable:on

NOTE The Telnet interface does not currently provide loading or removing images in the Media Pool. This has to be done from either a Smart Remote 4, or using the Software Control application. Refer to the 'using the media pool' section of this manual for more information.

Camera Control

Ultimatte 12 HD Mini can be used to control an attached camera via SDI or HDMI, please refer to the 'Camera Control via Ultimatte 12 HD Mini' section for more information. For SDI Camera Control, the Ultimatte device's Camera ID may be changed using the CAMERACONTROL block:

CAMERACONTROI CameraId:1← 

NOTE This control block is only available on the Ultimatte 12 HD Mini.

Introduccion

The Blackmagic Ultimatte 12 Ethernet Protocol gives you the freedom to build your own custom control solutions for your Ultimatte 12. For example, you can create your own software application and control your Ultimatte via Ethernet from your computer.

The first step is to connect your Ultimatte to your computer via Ethernet. You can do this by connecting Ultimatte to the same network your computer is connected to, or you can connect Ultimatte directly to your computer.

NOTE If your Blackmagic Ultimatte is connected directly to your computer, set your computer to a manual static IP address. Set the first three blocks of numbers in the IP address to match your Ultimatte and set the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0. You can leave the gateway or router setting blank as it will not be used in a direct connection between your computer and Ultimatte.

If your network settings are set correctly, you can now open the Terminal application on Mac OS, or enable Telnet command line utilities on Windows and enter Ultimatte control protocol commands. These commands can be programmed into your application and triggered by related items on a custom user interface of your own design.

Below is a basic example of using Telnet to change the backing color, restore to factory defaults, and adjust the matte density control.

1 In the Terminal application, type the following:

telnet (IP address of main unit (space) port number)(enter)

For example: telnet 192.168.10.220 9998

Press 'enter'.

A list of status information will appear and you are ready to control your Ultimatte.

2 Now type the following:

control: (press enter)

backing color: blue (press enter twice)

Terminal will acknowledge the action with 'ack' and confirm it so you know your setting has been performed.

You have now changed Ultimatte's backing color to blue.

3 To restore to factory defaults, type the following:

control: (press enter)

factory defaults: yes (press enter twice)

This restores your Ultimatte to factory default settings and performs an automatic composite.

4 To adjust the matte density setting, type the following:

control: (press enter)

matte density: 273 (press enter twice)

Terminal will acknowledge and confirm the action.

You have now adjusted the matte density setting.

5 To exit Telnet

Hold down the control button and press the 'J' key. The Telnet prompt will appear.

Type the following:

quit press enter)

A status message will appear confirming the connection is closed.

Blackmagic Ultimatte 12 Ethernet Protocol

Version 2.0

If you are a software developer you can use Ultimatte Ethernet Protocol to construct devices that integrate with our products. Here at Blackmagic Design our approach is to open up our protocols and we eagerly look forward to seeing what you come up with!

Overview

The Blackmagic Ultimatte Ethernet Protocol is a text based protocol that is accessed by connecting to TCP port 9998 on an Ultimatte.

Ultimatte sends information in blocks. Each block has an identifying header in all caps, followed by a full colon. A block spans multiple lines and is terminated by a blank line. Each line in the protocol is terminated by a newline character.

Upon connection, the Ultimatte device sends a complete update of its status. After the initial status transmission, status updates are sent every time the Ultimatte device's status changes.

To be resilient to future protocol changes, clients should ignore blocks they do not recognize, up to the trailing blank line. Within existing blocks, clients should ignore lines that they do not recognize.

Protocol Preamble

The first block sent by Ultimatte is always the protocol preamble:

PROTOCOL PREAMBLE: Version: 2.0

The version field indicates the protocol version. When the protocol is changed in a backwards compatible way, the minor version number will be updated. If incompatible changes are made, the major version number will be updated.

Identity

The next block contains information about the device identity.

ID EN T IY:  
Model: Ultimatte 12 8K  
Label: Ultimatte 12 8K  
Unique ID: 12345678 

Network Information

There are two network blocks. The first describes the general network information and the second describes the network interface details.

NETWORK: Interface count: 1 Default Interface: 0 Static DNS Ser vers: 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4 Cu rrent DNS Ser vers: 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4

NETWORK INTERFACE 0:
Name: Cadence GigE Ethernet MAC
Priority: 0
MAC Address: xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx
Dynam icIP: false
Cu rre nt A d d re s s: 10.0.0.2/255.255.255.0
Cu rre nt G ate way: 10.0.0-1
Static A dd resses: 10.0.0.2/255.255.255.0
Static Gate w ay: 10.0.0.1

Version Information

The version information describes the hardware and software version numbers and identifiers of the device. For example, the "Product ID" field contains the hexadecimal USB Product Identifier.

VERSION: Product ID: BE84 Hardware Version: 0100 Software Version: 09A89B7A Software Release: 2.Q 

Device Information

The next block contains general information about the connected Ultimatte device.

NOTE Some Ultimatte models will only have a subset of the above-mentioned inputs.

For example, the Ultimatte 12 HD Mini only has the following inputs:

• Foreground input (FG In), and
  Background input (BG In).

Similarly, the Ultimatte 12 HD only has the following inputs:

• Foreground input (FG In),
  Background input (BG In),
• Garbage Matte input (G MATTE In),
  Holdout Matte input (H MATTE In),
  Monitor Input (MONITOR In), and
  Reference Input (REF In).

Video Formats Information

The Video Formats blocks lists the video formats supported by the device. See the Video Format Control list to find the formats supported by each device.

VIDEO FORMATS: auto detect 525.59.94 NTS C 4:3 625i50 PAL 4:3 720p60 720p60 

Initial Status Dump

The next eleven blocks provide the control values, control default values, current file, file list, the GPI lists, the Frame Buffer Image List and Frame Buffer State.

CONTROL:  
Matte Density: 0  
Red Density: 0  
Green Density: 0  
...(Full list in Controls section)  
<sup>+</sup>  
CONTROL DEFAULT LT:  
Matte Density: 0

File 2  
<sup>+</sup>  
GPI LIST:

Index: 0  
File 1  
File 2 

NOTE The Ultimatte 12 HD Mini does not have GPI inputs, so this block is not available on that device.

The IMAGE LIST block contains the filenames of images that are currently stored on the device. These images can be assigned to Frame Buffer inputs.

IM AGE LIST:  
Image 1  
Image 2 

The FRAME BUFFER block contains the status of the Frame Buffers on the device.

This information will show:

How many image buffers are available,
- whether a frame buffer is enabled and has an image buffer assigned to it, and
- how frame buffer transitions are set up for those frame buffers that support transitions.

NOTE Frame Buffer Duration time is in milliseconds.

FRAME BUFFER: Number Of Frame Buffers: 46 BG 1 Frame Buffer Enable: off BG 1 Frame Buffer Index: 0 LY 1 Frame Buffer Enable: off LY 1 Frame Buffer Index: 0 BG 2 Frame Buffer Enable: off BG 2 Frame Buffer Index: 0 LY 2 Frame Buffer Enable: off LY 2 Frame Buffer Index: 0 GM Frame Buffer Enable: off GM Frame Buffer Index: 0 HM Frame Buffer Enable: off HM Frame Buffer Index: 0 BG Frame Buffer Mix: 0 LY Frame Buffer Mix: 0 BG Transition Duration: 0 LY Transition Duration: 0 Frame Buffer 1: Image 1 Frame Buffer 2: Image 2 ...

End Prelude

The final block of the status dump sent by Ultimatte is always end prelude:

END PRELUDE:

Status Updates

When any Control is changed on an Ultimatte device, the Ultimatte device replies with the applicable status block to all connected clients, containing only the items that have changed. For example, if Matte Density has been changed, the following block will be sent:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 0 

If multiple items are changed, multiple items may be present in the update:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 0 Red Density: 0

These notifications are sent whether the change originated from the front panel, or from any other connected client.

Requesting Changes

To update a Control the client should send a block of the same form Ultimatte sends when its status changes. For example, to change Matte Density to 100, the client should send the following block:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 100 

The block must be terminated by a blank line. On receipt of a blank line, Ultimatte will either acknowledge the request by responding:

ACK←  
← 

or indicate that the request was not understood by responding:

NAK 

After a positive response, the client should expect to see a status update from Ultimatte showing the status change. This is likely to be the same as the command that was sent, but if the request could not be performed, or other changes were made simultaneously by other clients, there may be more updates in the block, or more blocks. Simultaneous updates could cancel each other out, leading to a response that is different to that expected.

In the absence of simultaneous updates, a simple control change will result in the following protocol exchange:

CONTROL:
Matte Density: 0 ACK
CONTROL:
Matte Density: 0

The asynchronous nature of the responses means that a client should never rely on the desired update actually occurring and must simply watch for status updates from Ultimatte and use only these to update its local representation of Ultimatte's state.

A client may also request Ultimatte to change a control by a relative amount. For example, to change Matte Density by 10, the client should send the following block:

CONTROL:  
Offset Matte Density: 10 

Only controls with numerical ranges support this relative mode.

Requesting a Status Dump

The client may request that Ultimatte resend the complete state of any status block by sending the header of the block, followed by a blank line. In the following example, the client requests Ultimatte resend the control status:

CONTROL: ACK

CONTROL:  
Matte Density: 0  
Red Density: 0  
Green Density: 0  
... (Full list in Controls section) 

File System

The client may request that Ultimatte load, save, delete, or rename a file. To load a file the client should send the following block:

FILE:
Load:

Ultimatte will respond with an ACK followed by a Current File block or a Message block.

To save, delete, or rename a file the client should send one of the following blocks:

FILE:  
Save: <filename>  
<  
FILE:  
Delete: <filename>  
<  
FILE:  
Rename: <filename>  
To: <filena me>  
< 

In each case Ultimatte will respond with an ACK followed by a File List block or a Message block.

GPI Event List

The client may request that Ultimatte add, insert or remove an event to a GPI Event List by sending an Insert GPI Event or Remove GPI Event command, followed by a blank line.

For example, to insert an event, the client should send the following block:

GPI:  
ID: 1  
Insert: <filename>  
At: -1 {The insertion index. A '-1' represents the end of the list} 

To remove an event a client would send the following block:

GPI: ID: 1 Remove: 1 {Event index to remove. A '0' will delete all events}

To set the current event index a client would send the following block:

GPI: ID: 1 Index: 1

Ultimatte will respond with an ACK message followed by either a GPI List Block or a Message Block.

GPI LIST:  
ID: 1  
Index: 0  
File 1  
File 2  
...  
or  
MESSAGE:  
Warning: Event limit exceeded 

Frame Buffer

The client may request that the Ultimatte device assign a pre-loaded image from its Media Pool into a particular frame buffer and enable/disable the frame buffer. To assign and enable an image to the BG frame buffer the following commands are required:

FRAME BUFFER:←

BG 1 Frame Buffer Index: 1 BG 1 Frame Buffer Enable: on-

To disable the frame buffer only the enable command is required:

FRAME BUFFER: BG1FrameBufferEnable:on

NOTE The Telnet interface does not currently provide loading or removing images in the Media Pool. This has to be done from either a Smart Remote 4, or using the Software Control application. Refer to the 'using the media pool' section of this manual for more information.

Camera Control

Ultimatte 12 HD Mini can be used to control an attached camera via SDI or HDMI, please refer to the 'Camera Control via Ultimatte 12 HD Mini' section for more information. For SDI Camera Control, the Ultimatte device's Camera ID may be changed using the CAMERACONTROL block:

CAMERACONTROI CameraId:1← 

NOTE This control block is only available on the Ultimatte 12 HD Mini.

The Blackmagic Ultimatte 12 Ethernet Protocol gives you the freedom to build your own custom control solutions for your Ultimatte 12. For example, you can create your own software application and control your Ultimatte via Ethernet from your computer.

The first step is to connect your Ultimatte to your computer via Ethernet. You can do this by connecting Ultimatte to the same network your computer is connected to, or you can connect Ultimatte directly to your computer.

NOTE If your Blackmagic Ultimatte is connected directly to your computer, set your computer to a manual static IP address. Set the first three blocks of numbers in the IP address to match your Ultimatte and set the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0. You can leave the gateway or router setting blank as it will not be used in a direct connection between your computer and Ultimatte.

If your network settings are set correctly, you can now open the Terminal application on Mac OS, or enable Telnet command line utilities on Windows and enter Ultimatte control protocol commands. These commands can be programmed into your application and triggered by related items on a custom user interface of your own design.

Below is a basic example of using Telnet to change the backing color, restore to factory defaults, and adjust the matte density control.

1 In the Terminal application, type the following:

telnet (IP address of main unit (space) port number)(enter)

For example: telnet 192.168.10.220 9998

Press 'enter'.

A list of status information will appear and you are ready to control your Ultimatte.

2 Now type the following:

control: (press enter)

backing color: blue (press enter twice)

Terminal will acknowledge the action with 'ack' and confirm it so you know your setting has been performed.

You have now changed Ultimatte's backing color to blue.

3 To restore to factory defaults, type the following:

control: (press enter)

factory defaults: yes (press enter twice)

This restores your Ultimatte to factory default settings and performs an automatic composite.

4 To adjust the matte density setting, type the following:

control: (press enter)

matte density: 273 (press enter twice)

Terminal will acknowledge and confirm the action.

You have now adjusted the matte density setting.

5 To exit Telnet

Hold down the control button and press the 'J' key. The Telnet prompt will appear.

Type the following:

quit( press enter)

A status message will appear confirming the connection is closed.

Blackmagic Ultimatte 12 Ethernet Protocol

Version 2.0

If you are a software developer you can use Ultimatte Ethernet Protocol to construct devices that integrate with our products. Here at Blackmagic Design our approach is to open up our protocols and we eagerly look forward to seeing what you come up with!

Overview

The Blackmagic Ultimatte Ethernet Protocol is a text based protocol that is accessed by connecting to TCP port 9998 on an Ultimatte.

Ultimatte sends information in blocks. Each block has an identifying header in all caps, followed by a full colon. A block spans multiple lines and is terminated by a blank line. Each line in the protocol is terminated by a newline character.

Upon connection, the Ultimatte device sends a complete update of its status. After the initial status transmission, status updates are sent every time the Ultimatte device's status changes.

To be resilient to future protocol changes, clients should ignore blocks they do not recognize, up to the trailing blank line. Within existing blocks, clients should ignore lines that they do not recognize.

Protocol Preamble

The first block sent by Ultimatte is always the protocol preamble:

PROTOCOL PREAMBLE: Version: 2.0

The version field indicates the protocol version. When the protocol is changed in a backwards compatible way, the minor version number will be updated. If incompatible changes are made, the major version number will be updated.

Identity

The next block contains information about the device identity.

ID EN T IY:  
Model: Ultimatte 12 8K  
Label: Ultimatte 12 8K  
Unique ID: 12345678 

Network Information

There are two network blocks. The first describes the general network information and the second describes the network interface details.

NETWORK: Interface count: 1 Default Interface: 0 Static DNS Ser vers: 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4 Cu rrent DNS Ser vers: 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4

NETWORK INTERFACE 0:
Name: Cadence GigE Ethernet MAC
Priority: 0
MAC Address: xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx
Dynam icIP: false
Cu rre nt A d d re s s: 10.0.0.2/255.255.255.0
Cu rre nt G ate way: 10.0.0-1
Static A dd resses: 10.0.0.2/255.255.255.0
Static Gate w ay: 10.0.0.1

Version Information

The version information describes the hardware and software version numbers and identifiers of the device. For example, the "Product ID" field contains the hexadecimal USB Product Identifier.

VERSION: Product ID: BE84 Hardware Version: 0100 Software Version: 09A89B7A Software Release: 2.Q 

Device Information

The next block contains general information about the connected Ultimatte device.

NOTE Some Ultimatte models will only have a subset of the above-mentioned inputs.

For example, the Ultimatte 12 HD Mini only has the following inputs:

• Foreground input (FG In), and
  Background input (BG In).

Similarly, the Ultimatte 12 HD only has the following inputs:

• Foreground input (FG In),
  Background input (BG In),
• Garbage Matte input (G MATTE In),
  Holdout Matte input (H MATTE In),
  Monitor Input (MONITOR In), and
  Reference Input (REF In).

Video Formats Information

The Video Formats blocks lists the video formats supported by the device. See the Video Format Control list to find the formats supported by each device.

VIDEO FORMATS: auto detect 525.59.94 NTS C 4:3 625i50 PAL 4:3 720p60 720p60 

Initial Status Dump

The next eleven blocks provide the control values, control default values, current file, file list, the GPI lists, the Frame Buffer Image List and Frame Buffer State.

Matte Density: 0  
Red Density: 0  
Green Density: 0  
...(Full list in Controls section)

File 2 

NOTE The Ultimatte 12 HD Mini does not have GPI inputs, so this block is not available on that device.

The IMAGE LIST block contains the filenames of images that are currently stored on the device. These images can be assigned to Frame Buffer inputs.

IM AGE LIST:  
Image 1  
Image 2 

The FRAME BUFFER block contains the status of the Frame Buffers on the device.

This information will show:

How many image buffers are available,
- whether a frame buffer is enabled and has an image buffer assigned to it, and
- how frame buffer transitions are set up for those frame buffers that support transitions.

NOTE Frame Buffer Duration time is in milliseconds.

FRAME BUFFER: Number Of Frame Buffers: 46 BG 1 Frame Buffer Enable: off BG 1 Frame Buffer Index: 0 LY 1 Frame Buffer Enable: off LY 1 Frame Buffer Index: 0 BG 2 Frame Buffer Enable: off BG 2 Frame Buffer Index: 0 LY 2 Frame Buffer Enable: off LY 2 Frame Buffer Index: 0 GM Frame Buffer Enable: off GM Frame Buffer Index: 0 HM Frame Buffer Enable: off HM Frame Buffer Index: 0 BG Frame Buffer Mix: 0 LY Frame Buffer Mix: 0 BG Transition Duration: 0 LY Transition Duration: 0 Frame Buffer 1: Image 1 Frame Buffer 2: Image 2 ...

End Prelude

The final block of the status dump sent by Ultimatte is always end prelude:

END PRELUDE:

Status Updates

When any Control is changed on an Ultimatte device, the Ultimatte device replies with the applicable status block to all connected clients, containing only the items that have changed. For example, if Matte Density has been changed, the following block will be sent:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 0 

If multiple items are changed, multiple items may be present in the update:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 0 Red Density: 0 

These notifications are sent whether the change originated from the front panel, or from any other connected client.

Requesting Changes

To update a Control the client should send a block of the same form Ultimatte sends when its status changes. For example, to change Matte Density to 100, the client should send the following block:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 100 

The block must be terminated by a blank line. On receipt of a blank line, Ultimatte will either acknowledge the request by responding:

ACK←  
← 

or indicate that the request was not understood by responding:

NAK 

After a positive response, the client should expect to see a status update from Ultimatte showing the status change. This is likely to be the same as the command that was sent, but if the request could not be performed, or other changes were made simultaneously by other clients, there may be more updates in the block, or more blocks. Simultaneous updates could cancel each other out, leading to a response that is different to that expected.

In the absence of simultaneous updates, a simple control change will result in the following protocol exchange:

CONTROL:
Matte Density: 0 ACK
CONTROLC:
Matte Density: 0

The asynchronous nature of the responses means that a client should never rely on the desired update actually occurring and must simply watch for status updates from Ultimatte and use only these to update its local representation of Ultimatte's state.

A client may also request Ultimatte to change a control by a relative amount. For example, to change Matte Density by 10, the client should send the following block:

CONTROL:  
Offset Matte Density: 10 

Only controls with numerical ranges support this relative mode.

Requesting a Status Dump

The client may request that Ultimatte resend the complete state of any status block by sending the header of the block, followed by a blank line. In the following example, the client requests Ultimatte resend the control status:

CONTROL: ACK

CONTROL:  
Matte Density: 0  
Red Density: 0  
Green Density: 0  
... (Full list in Controls section) 

File System

The client may request that Ultimatte load, save, delete, or rename a file. To load a file the client should send the following block:

FILE:
Load:

Ultimatte will respond with an ACK followed by a Current File block or a Message block.

To save, delete, or rename a file the client should send one of the following blocks:

FILE:  
Save: <filename>  
<  
FILE:  
Delete: <filename>  
<  
FILE:  
Rename: <filename>  
To: <filena me>  
< 

In each case Ultimatte will respond with an ACK followed by a File List block or a Message block.

GPI Event List

The client may request that Ultimatte add, insert or remove an event to a GPI Event List by sending an Insert GPI Event or Remove GPI Event command, followed by a blank line.

For example, to insert an event, the client should send the following block:

GPI:  
ID: 1  
Insert: <filename>  
At: -1 {The insertion index. A '-1' represents the end of the list} 

To remove an event a client would send the following block:

GPI: ID: 1 Remove: 1 {Event index to remove. A '0' will delete all events}

To set the current event index a client would send the following block:

GPI: ID: 1 Index: 1

Ultimatte will respond with an ACK message followed by either a GPI List Block or a Message Block.

GPI LIST:  
ID: 1  
Index: 0  
File 1  
File 2  
...  
or  
MESSAGE:  
Warning: Event limit exceeded 

Frame Buffer

The client may request that the Ultimatte device assign a pre-loaded image from its Media Pool into a particular frame buffer and enable/disable the frame buffer. To assign and enable an image to the BG frame buffer the following commands are required:

FRAME BUFFER:←

BG 1 Frame Buffer Index: 1 BG 1 Frame Buffer Enable: on-

To disable the frame buffer only the enable command is required:

FRAME BUFFER: BG1FrameBufferEnable:on

NOTE The Telnet interface does not currently provide loading or removing images in the Media Pool. This has to be done from either a Smart Remote 4, or using the Software Control application. Refer to the 'using the media pool' section of this manual for more information.

Camera Control

Ultimatte 12 HD Mini can be used to control an attached camera via SDI or HDMI, please refer to the 'Camera Control via Ultimatte 12 HD Mini' section for more information. For SDI Camera Control, the Ultimatte device's Camera ID may be changed using the CAMERACONTROL block:

CAMERACONTROI CameraId:1← 

NOTE This control block is only available on the Ultimatte 12 HD Mini.

Version Information

The version information describes the hardware and software version numbers and identifiers of the device. For example, the "Product ID" field contains the hexadecimal USB Product Identifier.

VERSION: Product ID: BE84 Hardware Version: 0100 Software Version: 09A89B7A Software Release: 2.Q 

Device Information

The next block contains general information about the connected Ultimatte device.

NOTE Some Ultimatte models will only have a subset of the above-mentioned inputs.

For example, the Ultimatte 12 HD Mini only has the following inputs:

• Foreground input (FG In), and
  Background input (BG In).

Similarly, the Ultimatte 12 HD only has the following inputs:

• Foreground input (FG In),
  Background input (BG In),
  Garbage Matte input (G MATTE In),
  Holdout Matte input (H MATTE In),
  Monitor Input (MONITOR In), and
  Reference Input (REF In).

Video Formats Information

The Video Formats blocks lists the video formats supported by the device. See the Video Format Control list to find the formats supported by each device.

VIDEO FORMATS: auto detect 525.59.94 NTS C 4:3625i50 PAL 4:3720p60

Initial Status Dump

The next eleven blocks provide the control values, control default values, current file, file list, the GPI lists, the Frame Buffer Image List and Frame Buffer State.

Green Density: 0  
...(Full list in Controls section)

NOTE The Ultimatte 12 HD Mini does not have GPI inputs, so this block is not available on that device.

The IMAGE LIST block contains the filenames of images that are currently stored on the device. These images can be assigned to Frame Buffer inputs.

IM AGE LIST: Image 1 Image 2

The FRAME BUFFER block contains the status of the Frame Buffers on the device.

This information will show:

How many image buffers are available,
- whether a frame buffer is enabled and has an image buffer assigned to it, and
- how frame buffer transitions are set up for those frame buffers that support transitions.

NOTE Frame Buffer Duration time is in milliseconds.

FRAME BUFFER: Number Of Frame Buffers: 46 BG 1 Frame Buffer Enable: off BG 1 Frame Buffer Index: 0 LY 1 Frame Buffer Enable: off LY 1 Frame Buffer Index: 0 BG 2 Frame Buffer Enable: off BG 2 Frame Buffer Index: 0 LY 2 Frame Buffer Enable: off LY 2 Frame Buffer Index: 0 GM Frame Buffer Enable: off GM Frame Buffer Index: 0 HM Frame Buffer Enable: off HM Frame Buffer Index: 0 BG Frame Buffer Mix: 0 LY Frame Buffer Mix: 0 BG Transition Duration: 0 LY Transition Duration: 0 Frame Buffer 1: Image 1 Frame Buffer 2: Image 2 ...

End Prelude

The final block of the status dump sent by Ultimatte is always end prelude:

END PRELUDE:

Status Updates

When any Control is changed on an Ultimatte device, the Ultimatte device replies with the applicable status block to all connected clients, containing only the items that have changed. For example, if Matte Density has been changed, the following block will be sent:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 0 

If multiple items are changed, multiple items may be present in the update:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 0 Red Density: 0 

These notifications are sent whether the change originated from the front panel, or from any other connected client.

Requesting Changes

To update a Control the client should send a block of the same form Ultimatte sends when its status changes. For example, to change Matte Density to 100, the client should send the following block:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 100 

The block must be terminated by a blank line. On receipt of a blank line, Ultimatte will either acknowledge the request by responding:

ACK←  
← 

or indicate that the request was not understood by responding:

NAK 

After a positive response, the client should expect to see a status update from Ultimatte showing the status change. This is likely to be the same as the command that was sent, but if the request could not be performed, or other changes were made simultaneously by other clients, there may be more updates in the block, or more blocks. Simultaneous updates could cancel each other out, leading to a response that is different to that expected.

In the absence of simultaneous updates, a simple control change will result in the following protocol exchange:

CONTROL:
Matte Density: 0 ACK
CONTROLC:
Matte Density: 0

The asynchronous nature of the responses means that a client should never rely on the desired update actually occurring and must simply watch for status updates from Ultimatte and use only these to update its local representation of Ultimatte's state.

A client may also request Ultimatte to change a control by a relative amount. For example, to change Matte Density by 10, the client should send the following block:

CONTROL:  
Offset Matte Density: 10 

Only controls with numerical ranges support this relative mode.

Requesting a Status Dump

The client may request that Ultimatte resend the complete state of any status block by sending the header of the block, followed by a blank line. In the following example, the client requests Ultimatte resend the control status:

CONTROL: ACK

CONTROL:  
Matte Density: 0  
Red Density: 0  
Green Density: 0  
... (Full list in Controls section) 

File System

The client may request that Ultimatte load, save, delete, or rename a file. To load a file the client should send the following block:

FILE:
Load:

Ultimatte will respond with an ACK followed by a Current File block or a Message block.

To save, delete, or rename a file the client should send one of the following blocks:

FILE:  
Save: <filename>  
<  
FILE:  
Delete: <filename>  
<  
FILE:  
Rename: <filename>  
To: <filena me>  
< 

In each case Ultimatte will respond with an ACK followed by a File List block or a Message block.

GPI Event List

The client may request that Ultimatte add, insert or remove an event to a GPI Event List by sending an Insert GPI Event or Remove GPI Event command, followed by a blank line.

For example, to insert an event, the client should send the following block:

GPI:  
ID: 1  
Insert: <filename>  
At: -1 {The insertion index. A '-1' represents the end of the list} 

To remove an event a client would send the following block:

GPI:  
ID: 1  
Remove: 1 ← {Event index to remove. A '0' will delete all events} 

To set the current event index a client would send the following block:

GPI: ID: 1 Index: 1

Ultimatte will respond with an ACK message followed by either a GPI List Block or a Message Block.

GPI LIST:  
ID: 1  
Index: 0  
File 1  
File 2  
...  
or  
MESSAGE:  
Warning: Event limit exceeded 

Frame Buffer

The client may request that the Ultimatte device assign a pre-loaded image from its Media Pool into a particular frame buffer and enable/disable the frame buffer. To assign and enable an image to the BG frame buffer the following commands are required:

FRAME BUFFER:←

BG 1 Frame Buffer Index: 1 BG 1 Frame Buffer Enable: on-

To disable the frame buffer only the enable command is required:

FRAME BUFFER: BG1FrameBufferEnable:on

NOTE The Telnet interface does not currently provide loading or removing images in the Media Pool. This has to be done from either a Smart Remote 4, or using the Software Control application. Refer to the 'using the media pool' section of this manual for more information.

Camera Control

Ultimatte 12 HD Mini can be used to control an attached camera via SDI or HDMI, please refer to the 'Camera Control via Ultimatte 12 HD Mini' section for more information. For SDI Camera Control, the Ultimatte device's Camera ID may be changed using the CAMERACONTROL block:

CAMERACONTROI CameraId:1← 

NOTE This control block is only available on the Ultimatte 12 HD Mini.

Developer Information

Controlling Ultimatte using Telnet

The Blackmagic Ultimatte 12 Ethernet Protocol gives you the freedom to build your own custom control solutions for your Ultimatte 12. For example, you can create your own software application and control your Ultimatte via Ethernet from your computer.

The first step is to connect your Ultimatte to your computer via Ethernet. You can do this by connecting Ultimatte to the same network your computer is connected to, or you can connect Ultimatte directly to your computer.

NOTE If your Blackmagic Ultimatte is connected directly to your computer, set your computer to a manual static IP address. Set the first three blocks of numbers in the IP address to match your Ultimatte and set the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0. You can leave the gateway or router setting blank as it will not be used in a direct connection between your computer and Ultimatte.

If your network settings are set correctly, you can now open the Terminal application on Mac OS, or enable Telnet command line utilities on Windows and enter Ultimatte control protocol commands. These commands can be programmed into your application and triggered by related items on a custom user interface of your own design.

Below is a basic example of using Telnet to change the backing color, restore to factory defaults, and adjust the matte density control.

1 In the Terminal application, type the following:

telnet (IP address of main unit (space) port number)(enter)

For example: telnet 192.168.10.220 9998

Press 'enter'.

A list of status information will appear and you are ready to control your Ultimatte.

2 Now type the following:

control: (press enter)

backing color: blue (press enter twice)

Terminal will acknowledge the action with 'ack' and confirm it so you know your setting has been performed.

You have now changed Ultimatte's backing color to blue.

3 To restore to factory defaults, type the following:

control: (press enter)

factory defaults: yes (press enter twice)

This restores your Ultimatte to factory default settings and performs an automatic composite.

4 To adjust the matte density setting, type the following:

control: (press enter)

matte density: 273 (press enter twice)

Terminal will acknowledge and confirm the action.

You have now adjusted the matte density setting.

5 To exit Telnet

Hold down the control button and press the 'J' key. The Telnet prompt will appear.

Type the following:

quit press enter)

A status message will appear confirming the connection is closed.

Blackmagic Ultimatte 12 Ethernet Protocol

Version 2.0

If you are a software developer you can use Ultimatte Ethernet Protocol to construct devices that integrate with our products. Here at Blackmagic Design our approach is to open up our protocols and we eagerly look forward to seeing what you come up with!

Overview

The Blackmagic Ultimatte Ethernet Protocol is a text based protocol that is accessed by connecting to TCP port 9998 on an Ultimatte.

Ultimatte sends information in blocks. Each block has an identifying header in all caps, followed by a full colon. A block spans multiple lines and is terminated by a blank line. Each line in the protocol is terminated by a newline character.

Upon connection, the Ultimatte device sends a complete update of its status. After the initial status transmission, status updates are sent every time the Ultimatte device's status changes.

To be resilient to future protocol changes, clients should ignore blocks they do not recognize, up to the trailing blank line. Within existing blocks, clients should ignore lines that they do not recognize.

Protocol Preamble

The first block sent by Ultimatte is always the protocol preamble:

PROTOCOL PREAMBLE: Version: 2.0

The version field indicates the protocol version. When the protocol is changed in a backwards compatible way, the minor version number will be updated. If incompatible changes are made, the major version number will be updated.

Identity

The next block contains information about the device identity.

ID EN T IY:  
Model: Ultimatte 12 8K  
Label: Ultimatte 12 8K  
Unique ID: 12345678 

Network Information

There are two network blocks. The first describes the general network information and the second describes the network interface details.

NETWORK: Interface count: 1 Default Interface: 0 Static DNS Ser vers: 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4 Current DNS Ser vers: 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4

NETWORK INTERFACE 0:

Priority: 0  
MAC Address: xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx  
Dynam icIP: false  
Cu rre nt A d d re s e s: 10.0.0.2/255.255.255.0  
Cu rre nt G ate way: 10.0.0←1  
Static A dd resses: 10.0.0.2/255.255.255.0  
Static Gate w ay: 10.0.0.1←1 

Version Information

The version information describes the hardware and software version numbers and identifiers of the device. For example, the "Product ID" field contains the hexadecimal USB Product Identifier.

VERSION: Product ID: BE84 Hardware Version: 0100 Software Version: 09A89B7 Software Release: 2.0 

Device Information

The next block contains general information about the connected Ultimatte device.

NOTE Some Ultimatte models will only have a subset of the above-mentioned inputs.

For example, the Ultimatte 12 HD Mini only has the following inputs:

• Foreground input (FG In), and
  Background input (BG In).

Similarly, the Ultimatte 12 HD only has the following inputs:

• Foreground input (FG In),
  Background input (BG In),
  Garbage Matte input (G MATTE In),
  Holdout Matte input (H MATTE In),
  Monitor Input (MONITOR In), and
  Reference Input (REF In).

Video Formats Information

The Video Formats blocks lists the video formats supported by the device. See the Video Format Control list to find the formats supported by each device.

VIDEO FORMATS: auto detect 525.59.94 NTS C 4:3625i50 PAL 4:3720p60  
… 

Initial Status Dump

The next eleven blocks provide the control values, control default values, current file, file list, the GPI lists, the Frame Buffer Image List and Frame Buffer State.

CONTROL:  
Matte Density: 0  
Red Density: 0  
Green Density: 0  
...(Full list in Controls section)  
<sup>+</sup>  
CONTROL DEFAULT LT:  
Matte Density: 0  
Red Density: 0  
Green Density: 0

FILE LIST:  
File 1  
File 2  
<sup>+</sup>  
GPI LIST:  
ID: 1  
Index: 0  
File 1  
File 2 

NOTE The Ultimatte 12 HD Mini does not have GPI inputs, so this block is not available on that device.

The IMAGE LIST block contains the filenames of images that are currently stored on the device. These images can be assigned to Frame Buffer inputs.

IM AGE LIST:  
Image 1  
Image 2 

The FRAME BUFFER block contains the status of the Frame Buffers on the device.

This information will show:

How many image buffers are available,
- whether a frame buffer is enabled and has an image buffer assigned to it, and
- how frame buffer transitions are set up for those frame buffers that support transitions.

NOTE Frame Buffer Duration time is in milliseconds.

FRAME BUFFER: Number Of Frame Buffers: 46 BG 1 Frame Buffer Enable: off BG 1 Frame Buffer Index: 0 LY 1 Frame Buffer Enable: off LY 1 Frame Buffer Index: 0 BG 2 Frame Buffer Enable: off BG 2 Frame Buffer Index: 0 LY 2 Frame Buffer Enable: off LY 2 Frame Buffer Index: 0 GM Frame Buffer Enable: off GM Frame Buffer Index: 0 HM Frame Buffer Enable: off HM Frame Buffer Index: 0 BG Frame Buffer Mix: 0 LY Frame Buffer Mix: 0 BG Transition Duration: 0 LY Transition Duration: 0 Frame Buffer 1: Image 1 Frame Buffer 2: Image 2 ...

End Prelude

The final block of the status dump sent by Ultimatte is always end prelude:

END PRELUDE:

Status Updates

When any Control is changed on an Ultimatte device, the Ultimatte device replies with the applicable status block to all connected clients, containing only the items that have changed. For example, if Matte Density has been changed, the following block will be sent:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 0 

If multiple items are changed, multiple items may be present in the update:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 0 Red Density: 0

These notifications are sent whether the change originated from the front panel, or from any other connected client.

Requesting Changes

To update a Control the client should send a block of the same form Ultimatte sends when its status changes. For example, to change Matte Density to 100, the client should send the following block:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 100 

The block must be terminated by a blank line. On receipt of a blank line, Ultimatte will either acknowledge the request by responding:

ACK←  
← 

or indicate that the request was not understood by responding:

NAK 

After a positive response, the client should expect to see a status update from Ultimatte showing the status change. This is likely to be the same as the command that was sent, but if the request could not be performed, or other changes were made simultaneously by other clients, there may be more updates in the block, or more blocks. Simultaneous updates could cancel each other out, leading to a response that is different to that expected.

In the absence of simultaneous updates, a simple control change will result in the following protocol exchange:

CONTROL:
Matte Density: 0 ACK
CONTROLC:
Matte Density: 0

The asynchronous nature of the responses means that a client should never rely on the desired update actually occurring and must simply watch for status updates from Ultimatte and use only these to update its local representation of Ultimatte's state.

A client may also request Ultimatte to change a control by a relative amount. For example, to change Matte Density by 10, the client should send the following block:

CONTROL:  
Offset Matte Density: 10 

Only controls with numerical ranges support this relative mode.

Requesting a Status Dump

The client may request that Ultimatte resend the complete state of any status block by sending the header of the block, followed by a blank line. In the following example, the client requests Ultimatte resend the control status:

CONTROL: ACK

CONTROL:  
Matte Density: 0  
Red Density: 0  
Green Density: 0  
... (Full list in Controls section) 

File System

The client may request that Ultimatte load, save, delete, or rename a file. To load a file the client should send the following block:

FILE:
Load:

Ultimatte will respond with an ACK followed by a Current File block or a Message block.

To save, delete, or rename a file the client should send one of the following blocks:

FILE:  
Save: <filename>  
<  
FILE:  
Delete: <filename>  
<  
FILE:  
Rename: <filename>  
To: <filena me>  
< 

In each case Ultimatte will respond with an ACK followed by a File List block or a Message block.

GPI Event List

The client may request that Ultimatte add, insert or remove an event to a GPI Event List by sending an Insert GPI Event or Remove GPI Event command, followed by a blank line.

For example, to insert an event, the client should send the following block:

GPI:  
ID: 1  
Insert: <filename>  
At: -1 {The insertion index. A '-1' represents the end of the list} 

To remove an event a client would send the following block:

GPI:  
ID: 1  
Remove: 1 ← {Event index to remove. A '0' will delete all events} 

To set the current event index a client would send the following block:

GPI: ID: 1 Index: 1

Ultimatte will respond with an ACK message followed by either a GPI List Block or a Message Block.

GPI LIST:  
ID: 1  
Index: 0  
File 1  
File 2  
...  
or  
MESSAGE:  
Warning: Event limit exceeded 

Frame Buffer

The client may request that the Ultimatte device assign a pre-loaded image from its Media Pool into a particular frame buffer and enable/disable the frame buffer. To assign and enable an image to the BG frame buffer the following commands are required:

FRAME BUFFER:←

BG 1 Frame Buffer Index: 1 BG 1 Frame Buffer Enable: on-

To disable the frame buffer only the enable command is required:

FRAME BUFFER: BG1FrameBufferEnable:on

NOTE The Telnet interface does not currently provide loading or removing images in the Media Pool. This has to be done from either a Smart Remote 4, or using the Software Control application. Refer to the 'using the media pool' section of this manual for more information.

Camera Control

Ultimatte 12 HD Mini can be used to control an attached camera via SDI or HDMI, please refer to the 'Camera Control via Ultimatte 12 HD Mini' section for more information. For SDI Camera Control, the Ultimatte device's Camera ID may be changed using the CAMERACONTROL block:

CAMERACONTROI CameraId:1\~ 

NOTE This control block is only available on the Ultimatte 12 HD Mini.

Developer Information (English)

Controlling Ultimatte using Telnet

The Blackmagic Ultimatte 12 Ethernet Protocol gives you the freedom to build your own custom control solutions for your Ultimatte 12. For example, you can create your own software application and control your Ultimatte via Ethernet from your computer.

The first step is to connect your Ultimatte to your computer via Ethernet. You can do this by connecting Ultimatte to the same network your computer is connected to, or you can connect Ultimatte directly to your computer.

NOTE If your Blackmagic Ultimatte is connected directly to your computer, set your computer to a manual static IP address. Set the first three blocks of numbers in the IP address to match your Ultimatte and set the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0. You can leave the gateway or router setting blank as it will not be used in a direct connection between your computer and Ultimatte.

If your network settings are set correctly, you can now open the Terminal application on Mac OS, or enable Telnet command line utilities on Windows and enter Ultimatte control protocol commands. These commands can be programmed into your application and triggered by related items on a custom user interface of your own design.

Below is a basic example of using Telnet to change the backing color, restore to factory defaults, and adjust the matte density control.

1 In the Terminal application, type the following:

telnet (IP address of main unit (space) port number)(enter)

For example: telnet 192.168.10.220 9998

Press 'enter'.

A list of status information will appear and you are ready to control your Ultimatte.

2 Now type the following:

control: (press enter)

backing color: blue (press enter twice)

Terminal will acknowledge the action with 'ack' and confirm it so you know your setting has been performed.

You have now changed Ultimatte's backing color to blue.

3 To restore to factory defaults, type the following:

control: (press enter)

factory defaults: yes (press enter twice)

This restores your Ultimatte to factory default settings and performs an automatic composite.

4 To adjust the matte density setting, type the following:

control: (press enter)

matte density: 273 (press enter twice)

Terminal will acknowledge and confirm the action.

You have now adjusted the matte density setting.

5 To exit Telnet

Hold down the control button and press the 'J' key. The Telnet prompt will appear.

Type the following:

quit press enter)

A status message will appear confirming the connection is closed.

Blackmagic Ultimatte 12 Ethernet Protocol

Version 2.0

If you are a software developer you can use Ultimatte Ethernet Protocol to construct devices that integrate with our products. Here at Blackmagic Design our approach is to open up our protocols and we eagerly look forward to seeing what you come up with!

Overview

The Blackmagic Ultimatte Ethernet Protocol is a text based protocol that is accessed by connecting to TCP port 9998 on an Ultimatte.

Ultimatte sends information in blocks. Each block has an identifying header in all caps, followed by a full colon. A block spans multiple lines and is terminated by a blank line. Each line in the protocol is terminated by a newline character.

Upon connection, the Ultimatte device sends a complete update of its status. After the initial status transmission, status updates are sent every time the Ultimatte device's status changes.

To be resilient to future protocol changes, clients should ignore blocks they do not recognize, up to the trailing blank line. Within existing blocks, clients should ignore lines that they do not recognize.

Protocol Preamble

The first block sent by Ultimatte is always the protocol preamble:

PROTOCOL PREAMBLE: Version: 2.0

The version field indicates the protocol version. When the protocol is changed in a backwards compatible way, the minor version number will be updated. If incompatible changes are made, the major version number will be updated.

Identity

The next block contains information about the device identity.

Device Information

The next block contains general information about the connected Ultimatte device.

NOTE Some Ultimatte models will only have a subset of the above-mentioned inputs.

For example, the Ultimatte 12 HD Mini only has the following inputs:

• Foreground input (FG In), and
  Background input (BG In).

Similarly, the Ultimatte 12 HD only has the following inputs:

• Foreground input (FG In),
  Background input (BG In),
  Garbage Matte input (GMATTE In),
  Holdout Matte input (H MATTE In),
  Monitor Input (MONITOR In), and
  Reference Input (REF In).

Video Formats Information

The Video Formats blocks lists the video formats supported by the device. See the Video Format Control list to find the formats supported by each device.

Initial Status Dump

The next eleven blocks provide the control values, control default values, current file, file list, the GPI lists, the Frame Buffer Image List and Frame Buffer State.

NOTE The Ultimatte 12 HD Mini does not have GPI inputs, so this block is not available on that device.

The IMAGE LIST block contains the filenames of images that are currently stored on the device. These images can be assigned to Frame Buffer inputs.

IM AGE LIST: Image 1 Image 2

The FRAME BUFFER block contains the status of the Frame Buffers on the device.

This information will show:

How many image buffers are available,
- whether a frame buffer is enabled and has an image buffer assigned to it, and
- how frame buffer transitions are set up for those frame buffers that support transitions.

NOTE Frame Buffer Duration time is in milliseconds.

FRAME BUFFER: Number Of Frame Buffers: 46 BG 1 Frame Buffer Enable: off BG 1 Frame Buffer Index: 0 LY 1 Frame Buffer Enable: off LY 1 Frame Buffer Index: 0 BG 2 Frame Buffer Enable: off BG 2 Frame Buffer Index: 0 LY 2 Frame Buffer Enable: off LY 2 Frame Buffer Index: 0 GM Frame Buffer Enable: off GM Frame Buffer Index: 0 HM Frame Buffer Enable: off HM Frame Buffer Index: 0 BG Frame Buffer Mix: 0 LY Frame Buffer Mix: 0 BG Transition Duration: 0 LY Transition Duration: 0 Frame Buffer 1: Image 1 Frame Buffer 2: Image 2 ...

End Prelude

The final block of the status dump sent by Ultimatte is always end prelude:

END PRELUDE:

Status Updates

When any Control is changed on an Ultimatte device, the Ultimatte device replies with the applicable status block to all connected clients, containing only the items that have changed. For example, if Matte Density has been changed, the following block will be sent:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 0 

If multiple items are changed, multiple items may be present in the update:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 0 Red Density: 0

These notifications are sent whether the change originated from the front panel, or from any other connected client.

Requesting Changes

To update a Control the client should send a block of the same form Ultimatte sends when its status changes. For example, to change Matte Density to 100, the client should send the following block:

CONTROL: Matte Density: 100 

The block must be terminated by a blank line. On receipt of a blank line, Ultimatte will either acknowledge the request by responding:

ACK←  
← 

or indicate that the request was not understood by responding:

NAK 

After a positive response, the client should expect to see a status update from Ultimatte showing the status change. This is likely to be the same as the command that was sent, but if the request could not be performed, or other changes were made simultaneously by other clients, there may be more updates in the block, or more blocks. Simultaneous updates could cancel each other out, leading to a response that is different to that expected.

In the absence of simultaneous updates, a simple control change will result in the following protocol exchange:

CONTROL:
Matte Density: 0 ACK
CONTROLC:
Matte Density: 0

The asynchronous nature of the responses means that a client should never rely on the desired update actually occurring and must simply watch for status updates from Ultimatte and use only these to update its local representation of Ultimatte's state.

A client may also request Ultimatte to change a control by a relative amount. For example, to change Matte Density by 10, the client should send the following block:

CONTROL:  
Offset Matte Density: 10 

Only controls with numerical ranges support this relative mode.

Requesting a Status Dump

The client may request that Ultimatte resend the complete state of any status block by sending the header of the block, followed by a blank line. In the following example, the client requests Ultimatte resend the control status:

CONTROL: ACK

CONTROL:  
Matte Density: 0  
Red Density: 0  
Green Density: 0  
... (Full list in Controls section) 

File System

The client may request that Ultimatte load, save, delete, or rename a file. To load a file the client should send the following block:

FILE:
Load:

Ultimatte will respond with an ACK followed by a Current File block or a Message block.

To save, delete, or rename a file the client should send one of the following blocks:

FILE:  
Save: <filename>  
<  
FILE:  
Delete: <filename>  
<  
FILE:  
Rename: <filename>  
To: <filena me>  
< 

In each case Ultimatte will respond with an ACK followed by a File List block or a Message block.

GPI Event List

The client may request that Ultimatte add, insert or remove an event to a GPI Event List by sending an Insert GPI Event or Remove GPI Event command, followed by a blank line.

For example, to insert an event, the client should send the following block:

GPI:  
ID: 1  
Insert: <filename>  
At: -1 {The insertion index. A '-1' represents the end of the list} 

To remove an event a client would send the following block:

GPI:  
ID: 1  
Remove: 1 ← {Event index to remove. A '0' will delete all events} 

To set the current event index a client would send the following block:

GPI: ID: 1 Index: 1

Ultimatte will respond with an ACK message followed by either a GPI List Block or a Message Block.

GPI LIST:  
ID: 1  
Index: 0  
File 1  
File 2  
...  
or  
MESSAGE:  
Warning: Event limit exceeded 

Frame Buffer

The client may request that the Ultimatte device assign a pre-loaded image from its Media Pool into a particular frame buffer and enable/disable the frame buffer. To assign and enable an image to the BG frame buffer the following commands are required:

FRAME BUFFER:←

BG 1 Frame Buffer Index: 1 BG 1 Frame Buffer Enable: on-

To disable the frame buffer only the enable command is required:

FRAME BUFFER: BG1FrameBufferEnable:on

NOTE The Telnet interface does not currently provide loading or removing images in the Media Pool. This has to be done from either a Smart Remote 4, or using the Software Control application. Refer to the 'using the media pool' section of this manual for more information.

Camera Control

Ultimatte 12 HD Mini can be used to control an attached camera via SDI or HDMI, please refer to the 'Camera Control via Ultimatte 12 HD Mini' section for more information. For SDI Camera Control, the Ultimatte device's Camera ID may be changed using the CAMERACONTROL block:

CAMERACONTROI CameraId:1← 

NOTE This control block is only available on the Ultimatte 12 HD Mini.
