MS9500GL HD FrEND Plus Chapter 8: Transport & Status Display
• A play range command has been received through a remote control interface.
During the cueing process, the MS9500GL searches the MPEG clip for the first displayable picture and initializes
the video output to the requested resolution. The Cue process ensures that when a play command is received the
MPEG decoder is primed and ready to play. This is essential in multi-channel systems where a predictable startup
is a requirement.
Playing
The playing indicator will be displayed while the MS9500GL is decoding the MPEG stream.
Frame Counter
The frame counter shows the current clip position in hours, minutes, seconds and frames.
Note: This number is relative to a start frame of 0, i.e. the first frame decoded in the MPEG stream will be shown
as 00:00:00:01
Current Timecode
The timecode counter shows the current timecode output when operating as a generator or external input when set
to receive. Shows hours, minutes, seconds and frames.
Mode Indicators
The Mode indicators are used to illustrate various on/off style settings on the HD Player. These modes are:
Loop
This indicator will be on when the Auto-repeat mode is selected. The auto-repeat mode can be selected from the
transport controls. When this option is set and the decoder reaches the end of an MPEG clip, playback will
continue from the first frame of the MPEG clip. This ensures continuous playback.
Note: The visual quality of the loop is dependent on how the MPEG stream ends. For full details of how to ensure
clean looping, please refer to the encoding considerations later in this manual.
Vid
This indicator will be on if the video output is active. It will be off when the video outputs are muted (black).
Video syncs are maintained while in muted mode.
Aud
This indicator will be on if the audio output is active. It will be off when the audio is muted. Audio mute will mute
both the SPDIF and Stereo Analogue audio.
