Scaling |
Dedicated hardware scaler |
- Multi-tap 10-bit realtime processing
- HD to SD downscaling – Proper conversion of the HD color space to the SD color space and proper aspect ratio conversion to anamorphic, letterbox, and center cut are provided. You can monitor or record an SD master of an HD project in real time.
- SD to HD upscaling – Proper conversion of the SD color space to the HD color space is performed. Footage with a 4:3 aspect ratio will be “pillarboxed”. SD 16:9 footage will be scaled to full screen.
- Cross conversions from 720 to 1080 and 1080 to 720
- All scaling operations can be accompanied by frame rate conversion with 2:3:2:3 and 2:3:3:2 cadences to facilitate monitoring 23.98 fps footage on a monitor that does not support the specific frame rate.
