SD to SD Aspect Ratio Conversion
- Letterbox: This transforms SD anamorphic material to a letterboxed image.
- H Crop: Will produce a horizontally stretched effect on the image; transforms anamorphic SD to full frame
- SD Pillarbox: Will produce 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: Will transform SD letterbox material to an anamorphic image.
Timecode
- LTC timecode input and output (via 1 x BNC each)
Machine Control
- RS-422, Sony 9-pin protocol (via breakout cable or optional K3G-Box)
-
9-pin D-connector pinout is as follows:
1 GND 2 RX- 3 TX+ 4 GND 5 No Connection 6 GND 7 RX+ 8 TX- 9 GND Shell GND
Reference Input
- Analog Color Black (1V) or Composite Sync (2 or 4V)
