Features Overview

Overview

The purpose of the AJ-UFC1800 is to create a spatial conversion from any input video format to any output video
format. The input may be any standard video format (high definition or standard definition), and the output may
also be any standard video format (high definition or standard definition) as long as it is has a related frame rate to
the input format. Frame rate conversion is not performed by the system, but frame rates from input to output may be
changed by the insertion or removal of 3:2 or 2:2 pull-down.
While performing a conversion, the end user will usually have to make additional adjustments regarding aspect
ratio, color space, audio & video timing adjustments, etc. The AJ-UFC1800 allows all of these types of adjustments
to be made using a simple front panel control system.
