9061 Function Submenu List and Descriptions
(continued)
When HD video input is received by the 9061, provides output format
conversions listed below.
• HD (Same as input): Output follows currently received video input
format, with Current Input Format and Current Output Format
displays showing same selection.
• SD (NTSC or PAL): Output is converted to 525i at 59.94 Hz frame
rate or 625i at 50 Hz rate, as applicable.
• 720p: Output is converted to 720p
• 720 film: Output is converted to corresponding 720p film frame rate
• 1080i: Output is converted to 1080i
• 1080p: Output is converted to 1080p
• 1080 film: Output is converted to corresponding 1080i film
frame rate
• Output Follows Reference In: Output tracks with format set in
Reference Video Input
Note: Output Follows Reference In selection automatically sets
the output format to that of the received reference signal input
(this signal is distributed to the 9061 and other cards via a
frame bus). In addition to extracting a frame sync and rate,
this function determines the type of black burst (i.e., black
burst or tri-level) and sets the output format to match.
HD: Convert To
When drop-down list is set to 720p, converts output to 720p
half-rate.
Yes/No control functions as follows:
• No: Do not apply half-rate; leave output at standard frame rate
• Yes: Output set at half-rate
Note: Half-rate outputs are available for the 720p frame rates listed under
"720p" in the "Scaler Video Format Conversions" table on page
3-15.
When enabled (and with the output video is set to 1080 film) converts
output to 1080PsF (segmented frame progressive).
Selects between the standard preset Aspect Ratio Conversions (ARC)
shown here, as well as User Defined and Follow AFD Settings.
• User Defined settings allow custom user-defined H and V aspect
ratio control.
• Follow AFD Settings sets the output aspect ratio to track with AFD
settings performed in AFD (p. 3-19).
Note: This function is intended for aspect ratio adjustment of a particular
signal without AFD considerations.
• If ARC is being used on a case-by-case basis for a particular
signal, it is easier to use the Scaler ARC tools described here.
• If AFD is to be used to set and apply a standard AFD code label
for ARC, use Follow AFD Settings. Do not perform ARC here;
instead, perform ARC as described in the AFD function
description on page 3-19.
