ESOLUTION
This menu controls the resolution and format of the outgoing video stream. Changes to
the SDI resolution setting require a software restart.
Supported HD resolutions follow:
1080i
1080i (4:3 anamorphic) – transmits a 4:3 image aspect picture as 1080i, without
having to resort to lower resolutions or cropping again downstream. This may
be useful when assembling a ‘picture in picture’ layout (two 4:3 images are
easier to arrange in a 16:9 frame than two 16:9 images are).
1080p
720p – Recommended for Skype TX to Skype TX calls. 720p provides a better
vertical resolution than a de-interlaced 1080i picture, since Skype does not
inherently support interlacing).
720p (4:3 anamorphic) – See above.
Standard definition SDI Out alternatives are listed below:
PAL 16:9
PAL 4:3
NTSC 16:9
NTSC 4:3
SDI
FRAME RATE
In similar fashion, this setting governs the framerate for the Skype Call video stream
sent to TalkShow’s outputs. The options shown vary to match the SDI resolution
selection. As discussed earlier (Section 3.8.2), this key setting also affects whether or
not the Input Connection menu in TalkShow’s Return Settings pane lists PAL or NTSC
formats.
