logo

The logo command is used to manage logo overlays. You can configure the Makito X to display a graphic file as a logo overlay in the encoded video. One logo may be configured for each physical video input interface, i.e.:

Two logos on dual channel encoders (Makito X SDI #S/B-292E-HDSDI2);
One logo on single input encoders (Makito X DVI #S/B-292E-DVI or Makito X SDI #S/B-292E-HDSDI1).

ID is used to select the video input on dual channel encoders (either 0 for BNC-1 or 1 for BNC-2 on #S/B-292E-HDSDI2).

ID is optional on single input encoders such as the #S/B-292E-HDSDI1 and the #S/B292E-DVI. If entered, only 0 will be accepted.

The logo position can either be relative (top left, top right, centered, etc.) or absolute (positioned at the exact X and Y coordinates specified). You can also specify the scaling and transparency display settings.

The graphic file can be uploaded in either BMP, JPEG, PNG, or GIF format.

Note

You can upload the graphic file either using the mklogo command, or from the Web interface (Logos page, see Configuring Logo Overlays).

Actions

Action	Description
enable	Displays the logo when configured properly.
disable	Hides the logo.
set	Configures logo settings. A series of one or more `parameter=value` pairs can be specified at once. See Parameters below.
get	Displays information on the logo.
list	Lists the available logo files. Logos are stored on the Makito X file system in the folder `/usr/share/haivision/logos`.
delete name	Deletes a logo file from the list.
delete all	Deletes all logo files from the list.

Parameters

Parameter	Default	Description/Values
`filename`	n/a	The name of the `.oly` file to display as a logo overlay. Note The file must be in Haivision’s overlay image (`.oly`) format. See mklogo.
`display`	Off	Enables the display of the specified file as a logo overlay. `On,Off`
`opacity`	100	Specifies the opacity percentage of the logo. 0 — an invisible logo ... 100 — a solid logo
`transparency`	0	Specifies the visibility of the logo by its transparency percentage. 0 — no transparency (solid/opaque logo) ... 100 — fully transparent (invisible logo)
`scaling`	100	Specifies the scale factor (percentage) for the logo: 25 — logo is 1/4 its original size 100 — no scaling 400 — logo is 4 times its original size
`relative`	Off	If enabled, keeps the logo in proportion to the display area regardless of the input resolution. `On,Off` Note The original scaling is vis-à-vis a 1920x1080 grid.
`positioning`	BottomRight	Specifies the position for the logo: BottomRight TopRight BottomLeft TopLeft Centered Absolute: Uses the exact X and Y coordinates. Relative: Uses the X, Y coordinates in relation to a 1920x1080 display area.
`x`	0	Horizontal coordinate used to position the top left point of origin in Absolute or Relative positioning modes. When using Absolute positioning, this is the exact horizontal position of the logo's top left point of origin.
`y`	0	Vertical coordinate used to position the top left point of origin in Absolute or Relative positioning modes. When using Absolute positioning, this is the exact vertical position of the logo's top left point of origin.

Example

# logo set filename=HaivisionLogoTransparent.oly opacity=65 positioning=bottomright display=on

Configures the file HaivisionLogoTransparent.oly to display as a logo on the system.
