The Processing Tab
Select output processing
This setting allows real time down conversion during playback. Select the desired option from the menu.
Some hardware models support simultaneous down conversion on output such as HD & SD or 2K & SD.
Simultaneous down conversion introduces a 2 frame delay on the SD-SDI output. Adjust your editing
software's timecode offset to ensure frame accuracy when inserting or assembling to tape.
Analog video outputs are also down converted. Component analog video can be switched between HD
or SD output. To view component analog SD video, select "Enable Conversion on Analog Output", when
"Simultaneous HD and SD Output" is also selected.
Select input processing
This setting allows real time down conversion and up conversion during capture. Select the desired option
from the menu.
Output HD 23.98PsF at HD 59.94i (Windows only)
This setting will apply a 3:2 pulldown sequence so that HD 23.98 PsF video is output as HD 59.94i. The film
frame rate of 23.98 fps is quite common but support in SDI and analog monitors is rare, while almost all HD
monitors support HD 59.94i.
Set A-frame VITC reference
This setting allows you to enter the A-frame number when removing 3:2 pulldown from NTSC video while
capturing at 23.98fps. The wrong A-frame will produce an incorrect presentation of fields and frames.
Capture VANC input line
These settings allow 3 line timecode, VITC subtitle info or any other VANC data to be preserved during
capture. To preserve VANC data, tick the check box for video line you wish to capture. Line 1 needs to be
enabled for lines 2 and 3 to function.
Select the output processing from the menu.
Tick the checkbox to output HD 23.98PsF at HD 59.94i
Set the A-Frame VITC Reference when performing 3:2 pulldown.
Tick the checkboxes to capture lines of VANC data.
