Setting Conversion Formats
Installing the MKS-8450X Format Converter Board in the MVS-8000X
enables signal video format conversions.
This operation is valid only when BB is selected in the <Ref Input Format>
group.
Format converter
Installing the Format Converter Board in the switcher enables the following
signal video format conversions.
• Up-conversion: from SD (4:3) to HD (16:9)
• Down-conversion: from HD (16:9) to SD (4:3)
• Cross-conversion: from HD (720P) to HD (1080i), or from HD (1080i) to
HD (720P)
The maximum number of input signals for which format conversion is possible
is 16 (or 8 when only one MKS-8450X board is installed), and the maximum
number of output signals is 4 (two outputs when the MKS-8160X is not
installed).
Notes
• After format conversion, input and output signals have one-frame delays
with respect to the reference signals. To synchronize converted input signals
and unconverted input signals, it is possible to delay the unconverted input
signal by one frame.
For details, see “To delay unconverted input signals by one frame” (page
1052).
• When the input reference signal for HD system is set to Tri Sync, the format
converter function is not available.
