Format Conversion
Convert any supported input format to any supported
output format, within the same frame rate family. These
three families are:
• 59.94, 29.97, 23.98
• 50, 25
• 60, 30, 24
Scaling
Supported in 2K/HD/SD formats
• Zoom in and out
• Reposition
• Region of Interest (ROI)
Up-Conversion
Hardware 10-bit
Zoom 14:9: results in a 4:3 image zoomed slightly to fill
a 14:9 image with black side bars
Zoom Letterbox: results in image zoomed to fill
fullscreen
Zoom Wide: results in a combination of zoom and
horizontal stretch to fill a 16:9 screen; this setting will
introduce a small aspect ratio change
Down-Conversion
Hardware 10-bit
Anamorphic: fullscreen
Letterbox: image is reduced with black top and bottom
added to image area with the aspect ratio preserved
Crop: image is cropped to fit video output format
Aspect Ratio Conversion
for SD to SD
Letterbox: Transforms SD anamorphic material to a
letterboxed image
H Crop: Produces a horizontally stretched effect on the
image; transforms anamorphic SD to full frame
SD Pillarbox: Produces an image in the center of the
screen with black borders on the left and right sides
and an anamorphized image in the center
V Crop: Transforms SD letterbox material to an
anamorphic image
