This Appendix details PVR 6000 configuring for the fitting of Aspect Ratio (A/R)
of the incoming Video to the A/R of the destination monitor.
C.2
The PVR 6000 provides the ability, using interpolation, to produce different
image formats, enabling the display of the incoming Video on either a 4:3 or a
16:9 monitor.
16:9 Video Streams can be fitted for display on 4:3 monitors, and vice versa, in
more than one format, as summarized in Table C-1 and Table C-2.
A/R fitting is referred to as Conversion. The PVR 6000 contains an "Aspect
Ratio Conversion Machine" responsible for all image conversions.
Figure C-1 displays a simplified illustration of this machine.
