Scaler Video Format Conversions
The Scaler (as shown and described in the following pages) allows selection of up-conversion (or
no conversion) for SD input formats. The table below lists the conversion choices available for
SD input formats and frame rates provided by the Scaler Convert to: function. Also shown are
the resulting frame rates for the converted outputs.
(film rates)
• SD: Convert To When SD video input is received by the UPC-166, provides output
format conversions, or re-aspecting to SD when SD is the detected input
format as described below.
• SD (Same as input): Output follows currently received video input
format, with Current Input Format and Current Output Format
displays showing same selection.
• 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

Notes: 1. The drop-down list choice of ―Same as Input‖ is used when no conversion is desired. For clarity, it is not redundantly
listed here.
2. ―X‖ denotes conversions not available or invalid conversions.
3. Interlaced formats rates listed are field rates. Progressive format rates listed are frame rates.
4. If the original material does not have a proper 3-2 cadence suitable for conversion to film rates, the conversion
reverts to standard de-interlacing. While this video can be converted to film rates, the resulting image motion will
lack smoothness. Therefore, make certain interlaced video is appropriately constructed for 3-2 reverse pulldown
when converting video to film rates. (See 3-2 Pulldown Conversion and Considerations (p. 1-11) for more
information.)
5. UPC-166 accepts only the input video formats listed in Input Format. If other formats are received by the
card, INVALID is displayed and the output is disabled.
