MAKING A CD

Create a project of 2 audio tracks 44100 kHz sampling and 2 output channels. Paste in the complete contents of your CD on the timeline exactly as it should play back. Insert silence between tracks. Perform normalization on selected areas of the timeline to maximize the bit depth while not creating uneven volume levels. Insert labels at track division points and remove any extranneous labels.

Position the cursor at the beginning of the program and select File->render list... Specify a filename containing a two digit 0 padded number like track01.wav. This is the filename for the first track written to disk. Select WAV format, 16 bits, undithered. Render it and Broadcast 2000 will automatically create a new file wherever there is a label.

It's easier to see video when the video windows are always on top. This can be set by configuring your window manager. For fvwm2 a line like this:

Style "Bcast: Video*" StaysOnTop

in your system.fvwmrc file does it.

Boot up The Gimp. Create an RGB image with transparent background. Draw a white filled circle or box by first selecting a region then filling it white. Save as .png.

Boot up Broadcast 2000. Load up one track with the video. Append the .png image you just created into another track.

Adjust camera automation on your .png image so that it blocks out the section of the video you want to blur.

Attach a Swap channels plugin to the .png track and arrange the channels thus:

alpha -> red
alpha -> green
alpha -> blue
100% -> alpha

Change the mode on the .png image track to multiply. Render the video as a movie with high quality. Alpha channels don't have to be enabled for this step.

Import the new movie as a new track below the original movie. Apply Chroma key followed by Blur to the new track. Set the chroma key to perfect black with a threshold of 1. Turn off the .png track and play back. Alpha channels have to be enabled. For lossless alpha channels use floating point.

Load up the movie to be censored. Mute its audio track but keep it playable. Create a new audio track and disable its playback. Attach the new track to the movie's audio track with send and recieve selected.

Create a third audio track, disable its playback, mute it and attach a Synthesizer to it with Send disabled but Recieve enabled.

Wherever you want to beep out the sound, paste a transition into the second audio track. Attach the transition to the third module with send and recieve enabled.

cd into the directory and type bcast2000 *. Wait for all the tracks to be inserted.

Disable recording on all tracks except the first two by shift clicking on the first track patch button and dragging over the second track's patch button.

Select tracks->concatenate tracks.

Make every track recordable by shift clicking the first track's patch button twice. Then switch off recording for the first two tracks. Select tracks->delete tracks.
