Monitor Output Digital | 1x HDMI standard type A connector HD/SD Color space, YCbCr or RGB Bit depth, 8 or 10 RGB Range, SMPTE or Full Range |
Video Processing | Frame rate conversion/film cadence removal/insertion (3:2) Loss of input management: Freeze, Black, or Mute AFD input detection, down-convert control Nominal video delay HD/SD, 1 frame |
Up-Conversion | Hardware 10-bit 4×3 Pillar: results in a 4×3 image at center screen with black sidebars 14×9 Pillar: results in a 4×3 image zoomed slightly to fill a 14×9 image with black side bars Full Screen: results in a 4×3 image stretched horizontally to fill in a 16×9 screen Letterbox to Full: results in image zoomed to fill fullscreen Wide Zoom: 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 Crop: image is cropped to fit new screen size Anamorphic: HD image is converted to full-screen SD with a 16×9 aspect ratio 14×9: image is reduced slightly with aspect ratio preserved, black is added top and bottom, and the left and right sides are cropped Auto AFD: automatically selects the best down-convert mode based on the input video’s Active Format Description (AFD) code Letterbox: image is reduced with black top and bottom added to image area with the aspect ratio preserved |
Cross-Conversion | Hardware 10-bit 1080i to 720p 720p to 1080i 720p to 1080PsF |
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 14×9: anamorphic to 14×9 conversion |
Audio Input Digital | 48 kHz sample rate 1x SDI embedded input 16-channels, 24-bit (20-bit SD), SMPTE-272/299 |
Audio Output Digital | 48 kHz sample rate 1x SDI embedded output 16-channels, 24-bit (20-bit SD), SMPTE-272/299 |
Audio I/O | 16-channel embedded SDI audio input 16-channel embedded SDI audio output 2 or 8-channel HDMI audio output 2x RCA style analog outputs at -10 dBu (nominal) |
Ancillary Data | Supports pass-through of PCM embedded audio Supports pass-through of non-PCM audio when source is in time with the selected ref (SDI In or Ext Ref). Non-PCM audio is not supported during frame sync operation. All other ANC data is not passed |
Reference Input | External, 1x BNC Blackburst or tri-level sync 75-ohms terminating |
Genlock | Lock to External Reference Lock to SDI input Free run |
HDCP | The FS-Mini does not encode the HDMI output with HDCP encryption. By definition, HD-SDI inputs to the FS-Mini are unencrypted. The HDMI specification requires HDMI monitors to support unencrypted inputs. |
