Previsualization
A previsualized version of the pixel mapping output can be viewed within the Mbox application. The previsualization
can be recalled from the computer’s keyboard (using the F5 key) or via external control signal (using DMX values on
the Master control channel parameter).
There are ten (10) discrete views. The first view is the combined overall previsualization, all contexts overlaid, with the
highest numbered context on top. (Note that some contexts may be obscured.) Views 2 through 10 each show a
single context with the corresponding number (Contexts 1-9).
In order to see the previsualization, the "Pixel Map Enable" checkbox on the Mbox Setup tab
must be checked.
To recall the previsualization HUDs via the Master control channel, use DMX values 80-89
where 80 is the combined view and 81-89 are Contexts 1-9.
To recall the previsualization in the Mbox window, press [F5] on the computer keyboard while
Mbox is in Fullscreen or Window mode. As [F5] is repeatedly pressed, the view will change.
Press once to see all contexts, a second time to see Context 1, a third time to see Context 2, and so on up to Context
9.
CAUTION! Pressing [F5] affects the video output of the Mbox application (both the preview output and the stage
outputs!), so if you are using one Mbox server for both pixel mapping and video output, you should not leave the view
set to a pixel mapping previsualization when outputting video for your show.
