Setting the Signal Format (Format Menu)
Setting Conversion Formats
Installing the MKS-8450G Format Converter Board in the MVS-8000G
enables signal video format conversions.
This operation is valid only when BB is selected in the <Ref Input Format>
group.
Format converter (for MVS-8000G only)
Installing the MKS-8450G 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-8450G board is installed), and the maximum
number of output signals is 4 (2 for output on the MVS-8000GSF).
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 (Frame Delay function).
For details, see “To delay unconverted input signals by one frame (the
Frame Delay function)” (page 1083).
• It is not possible to apply the safe title function to output signals subjected to
format conversion.
• When the input reference signal for HD system is set to Tri Sync, the format
converter function is not available.
For details, see “Switching the Input Reference Signal for HD System”
(page 1080).
Format combinations allowing conversion
The supported combinations of switcher signal format and format converter
(inputs 1 to 8 and inputs 9 to 16) are as follows.
