AJA Control Panel, Formats Tab
Format Tab Screen Settings
Video Format—this pull-down menu shows the currently selected format. This
pull-down appears in both the Primary Format area of the Formats screen as
well as the Secondary Format area (if present). If you select an alternate value in
the Primary Format using the pull-down, it will change the format used by Io
HD's framebuffer. When a change is made via the Video Format pull-down or
by clicking an icon (widget) and selecting a new format via a contextual menu,
the block diagram will change to reflect the new format. In the case of a
Secondary Format, the formats available can vary based on what the Primary
Format is and the input signal (frame rates of input sources limits the to/from
conversion choices). The “Secondary Video Format” pull-down menu lists all
compatible formats in black (incompatible formats are shown in gray and
cannot be selected). This allows you to see what you've chosen, and also see
those formats that are compatible with the selected Primary format.
