Blackmagic Converters Setup Settings
The Blackmagic Converters Setup utility can be used to change settings and update your
Micro Converter's software. You can access these settings by moving between the 'video', and
'about' tabs.
The 'About' tab is described in the 'Changing Settings' section in this manual.
The 'Video' tab for Micro Converter BiDirectional SDI/HDMI contains the following settings.
The 'Clip video output to legal levels' setting is checked by
default. This setting makes sure your HDMI output is a true
representation of the SDI input.
Processing menu
The 'Clip video output to legal levels' checkbox controls clipping of your SDI input to ensure
that it stays within HDMI legal levels and should be kept on by default.
The '3G Output' setting lets you select between Level A or Level B 3G-SDI. This changes the
3G-SDI output standard to maintain compatibility with equipment that can receive only level A
or level B 3G-SDI video. The default setting is Level B.
