Constructing a custom user source format overview
There are four basic steps to create a custom user source format:
1.
Configure a source to display the unrecognized source format and connect it to the
VN‑Matrix encoder.
2.
Create a custom input mode to match the resolution and timing of the source.
3.
Verify that the encoder can automatically detect (auto‑detect) the source format created
in step 2.
4.
Fine‑tune the custom input mode.
NOTE: After the custom input mode is created for the VNE 250, you may need to
create a custom output mode to match.
TIPS: It is recommended that:
•
When creating a custom input mode, monitors are connected to both the
video loop‑out of the VNE 250 and the video output of the VND 250.
•
The same monitors be used in the final system configuration.
