Display Information
To Select Streams to View
28
You can select to view one or both streams simultaneously of a 2xHD Level B 3
Gb/s SDI signal from an input button pop-up menu. When you press and hold an
input button, the pop-up menu that appears allows you to select to view stream 1,
stream 2, or both streams of that signal.
The following Input 1A button pop-up menu options appear when a trace display
is set to Multi-Input display mode in full-screen. Pressing the 1B, 2A, or 2B input
buttons will give you the same menu options as follows, but with different labels.
NOTE.
You can customize the input labels. (See page 29, To Customize Input
Labels.)
Input 1A: shows the entire stream when a signal stream signal is used or both
streams overlayed when a 2xHD Level B 3 Gb/s signal is used.
Input 1A.1: shows only the first stream of the two streams of a 2xHD Level
B 3 Gb/s signal in the input in the trace display.
Input 1A.2: shows only the second stream of the two streams of a 2xHD
Level B 3 Gb/s signal in the input in the trace display.
Input 1A.1+2: shows both of the two streams of a 2xHD Level B 3 Gb/s
signal individually. Each trace is labeled in the display as either Input 1A.1
or Input 1A.2 (or a label you have customized) and shows both streams
individually in the trace display.
NOTE.
When Multi-Input mode is disabled, only the first three options in the
previous list appear in the input button pop-up menu.
You may select up to eight channels of video from 2xHD video sources, but only
the first four are displayed in Multi-Input mode. 2xHD video formats may be used
for 3D video content in which the left eye view is typically carried in channel 1
and the right eye in channel 2. The 2xHD formats are defined by SMPTE 425
as an option for 3 Gb/s Level B SDI video. 2xHD formats are available in 720p,
1080i, and 1080p (23.98 - 30 fps).
