Scaler Video Format Conversions
Scaler Video Format Conversions
The Scaler HD: Convert to: and SD: Convert to: drop-down lists (as shown and described in
the following pages) allows selection of up/down/cross-conversions (or no conversion) for
various input formats. The table below lists the conversion choices available for various input
formats and frame rates provided by the Scaler Convert to: function. Also shown are the
resulting frame rates for the converted outputs.

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. 1-12) for more
information.)
5. Formats using a 30/29.97 Hz progressive frame rate can be converted to a 24/23.98 Hz progressive frame rate,
however some image motion irregularity will appear in the converted output.
