HD Scalar Characteristics
Scalars do not:
• Pass ancillary data
• Frame rate convert, for example 50 to 59.9 Hz
Note Frame rate conversion may appear to work but attempting to use it may cause
unpredictable results.
• Perform SD 4x3 to SD 16x9 or SD 16x9 to SD 4x3 conversion
• Perform a 16x9 to 4x3 center cut. Only letter box is supported for 16x9
to 4x3
• Perform color space conversion (SD and HD have slightly different
color space).
Scalars can:
• Function as a frame sync whenever the input is not locked to reference
• Add a frame of delay to the scaled/frame synced inputs
• Be bypassed and the input used as any other input
