1 FRS-1801 HD/SD Universal Video Processor/Converter
1.1 Introduction
The FRS-1801 is a highly integrated module designed to synchronize, process and delay HD and SD signals
into HD/SD hybrid plants. The FRS-1801 is a single channel card.
The FRS can accept either HD or SD inputs and will provide an HD or SD output according to the input
standard. The output path provides frame sync, video proc, color correction. The additional processing delay
should be up to 15 frames. This is necessary for Dolby E & AC3 encoders, decoders delay.
The FRS can process up to 16 channels (4 groups of embedded audio) or 8 channels (2 groups of discreet
AES) inputs/outputs. The FRS will also allow for an internal connection to other audio processing cards like
Miranda’s UAP and DAP. These boards can be used when analog audio or Dolby E decode are a
requirement.
