When an input is selected, pressing its button again mutes the input. The
input’s signal turns off and the window closes. The button flashes while the
input remains muted. To unmute the input, press its button again.
When an input is muted or unmuted, the window in which it was displayed
opens or closes with the currently selected window transition effect. The
Window Configuration menu lets you select a transition effect (e.g., dissolve,
curtain, or square wipe) with which the window will open or close (the
default effect is cut). See “ Window Configuration menu ,” later in this chapter.

Virtual video input selection buttons — Press these buttons to select inputs
5 through 19. These inputs can be configured via remote control to accept
standard definition component video, S-video, or composite video signals
only.
These inputs are referred to as “virtual” inputs because they can be
configured as a variety of combinations of component, S-video, and composite
video through SIS commands, the Windows-based control software, or the
MGP 464/462xi Web pages. They cannot be configured via the front panel.
The virtual input buttons are arranged in five columns of three buttons each,
reflecting the arrangement of the virtual input connectors on the rear panel.
Like the buttons for the four fully configurable inputs, the virtual input
buttons light when pressed. (Repeated pressing of an virtual input button
toggles between muting and unmuting the input.) When you press an input
button connected to a component video source, all three buttons in its column
light. If you press a button connected to an S-video source, the top two
buttons in the column light. When a composite video source is selected, only
one button lights.
N Only one input can be selected in each column.
4 Window Select buttons — Press these buttons to select, activate, or adjust
one of the windows. While a window is selected, all picture controls are
