• HD: Convert To
When HD video input is received by the 9061, provides output format
conversions listed below.
• HD (Same as input): Output follows currently received video input
format, with Current Input Format and Current Output Format
displays showing same selection.
• SD (NTSC or PAL): Output is converted to 525i at 59.94 Hz frame
rate or 625i at 50 Hz rate, as applicable.
• 720p: Output is converted to 720p
• 720 film: Output is converted to corresponding 720p film frame rate
• 1080i: Output is converted to 1080i
• 1080p: Output is converted to 1080p
• 1080 film: Output is converted to corresponding 1080i film
frame rate
• Output Follows Reference In: Output tracks with format set in
Reference Video Input
Note: Output Follows Reference In selection automatically sets
the output format to that of the received reference signal input
(this signal is distributed to the 9061 and other cards via a
frame bus). In addition to extracting a frame sync and rate,
this function determines the type of black burst (i.e., black
burst or tri-level) and sets the output format to match.
HD: Convert To
• HD: Output Half-rate 720p
When
drop-down list is set to 720p, converts output to 720p
half-rate.
Yes/No control functions as follows:
• No: Do not apply half-rate; leave output at standard frame rate
• Yes: Output set at half-rate
Note: Half-rate outputs are available for the 720p frame rates listed under
“720p” in the “Scaler Video Format Conversions” table on page
3-15.
• HD: Output PsF
When enabled (and with the output video is set to 1080 film) converts
output to 1080PsF (segmented frame progressive).
• HD: Aspect Ratio Conversion
Selects between the standard preset Aspect Ratio Conversions (ARC)
shown here, as well as User Defined and Follow AFD Settings.
• User Defined settings allow custom user-defined H and V aspect
ratio control.
• Follow AFD Settings sets the output aspect ratio to track with AFD
settings performed in AFD (p. 3-19).
Note: This function is intended for aspect ratio adjustment of a particular
signal without AFD considerations.
• If ARC is being used on a case-by-case basis for a particular
signal, it is easier to use the Scaler ARC tools described here.
• If AFD is to be used to set and apply a standard AFD code label
for ARC, use Follow AFD Settings. Do not perform ARC here;
instead, perform ARC as described in the AFD function
description on page 3-19.
