Up Conversion
Up Conversion is the process of converting your video to a higher resolution. For example, you may need
to insert an NTSC SD source into an HD production. The NTSC clip can be converted to many 720 and
1080 HD output formats and frame rates, depending on your project’s requirement. Teranex processors
employ high quality de-interlacing and up conversion algorithms, assuring outstanding results. In this
example, 486i59.94 component analog video is converted to 1080p29.97 using zoom aspect ratio and
RCA analog audio inputs on the Teranex 2D or 3D.
Power your Teranex Processor and connect your inputs and outputs.
Setting your Input
Step 1. Press the IN button on the control panel and select ANLG video. The Analog Input menu will
be displayed on the LCD.
Step 2. Using the rotary knob, select Component as your analog input type. Press the IN button to
display your input video on the LCD. Teranex automatically detects the input format and
illuminates the corresponding buttons on the control panel.
Step 3. Press the ANLG audio button. Using the rotary knob, select RCA as your analog audio input type.
Setting your Output
Step 1. Press the OUT button on the control panel. On the Teranex 2D, all output buttons will be
illuminated blue. On the Teranex 3D, the EMBED audio button will be blue. Select the AES or
ANLG button. AES/EBU and analog audio outputs share the XLR connectors. On the Teranex
Express, the EMBED audio button will be blue.
Step 2. Press the 1080 button. Select the P button for progressive output, and the 29.97/30 button to
select your frame rate. The format, frame and rate buttons are now illuminated green, ready for
you to accept your conversion set up or make changes.
Step 3. Using the soft menu buttons, select Change. The output video is now displayed on the LCD
and sent to all output connectors. The buttons will also illuminate blue to confirm your settings.
Setting your Aspect Ratio
Press the CCUT/ZOOM button to set your aspect ratio to Zoom. For more information on aspect ratio
conversion see pages 17 and 65-66.
Your Teranex Processor is now ready to up convert your video.
