Figure 3.109 Video Fail Mode Field
Video Fail Modes allow the broadcaster to define a failure screen upon loss of video

should be examined for the cause of the video failure.
The unit provides the following fail screens:
•
Note: If the PMT Update Mode has been set to Flush or Refresh, this can result in
•
•
•
Note: If the video is 1080P50/60, selecting this option will result in 100% Bars
