Pre-Processing
The pre-processing includes:
•PreSight
The PreSight noise reduction removes noise and details that stress the encoder at
low bit rates. It is possible to adjust the filter manually during operation without
service interruption, or to set the filter to adjust automatically to the encoding
complexity of the video contents.
4038938 Rev AD9054 HDTV Encoder Intstallation and Operation Guide2-3
The D9054 HD Encoder supports subsambling. Subsampling decreases the
resolution of the source material in order to lower the amount of data to be
encoded.
1080i: supports full, 3/4, 2/3 and 1/2 resolution.
720p: supports full, 3/4 and 1/2 resolution.
Transport Stream
The encoded data, carrying the video and audio signals, is internally multiplexed
into the MPEG-4 and DVB compliant transport stream when the D9054 HD Encoder
is used in a stand-alone or ROSA controlled application. When the D9054 HD
Encoder is controlled by a PowerVu
(available in the future), a PowerVu multiplexer is expected to be used where
appropriate DVB tables are inserted for compliant transport. The three ASI outputs
always carry the transport stream (TS).

WARNING:
Introduction
The encoder is supplied with two power supplies that provide redundant power
with no single point of failure. Normal typical operation requires both supplies to
be powered up and switched on. Each power supply should be powered from a
separate mains branch circuit, in order to ensure redundancy.
The DC outputs from both power supplies are combined together in a currentsharing scheme so that the total load is shared.
Power Connection
To operate the encoder, you must connect it to an AC power source. For
information about connecting the chassis to AC power, see Appendix A - Technical
Specifications.
As Cisco units are designed for 24 hours’ operation, some products do not have a
power switch. In this case the mains cord and/or DC power supply cable serve(s) as
the mains disconnect device.
Section A - Rack Installation
Make sure that at least one end of the power cable(s) remains easily accessible
for unplugging, if you need to switch off the unit. For example: Ensure that the
socket outlet is installed near the product.
To avoid electrical shock, connect the three-prong plug on this product to an
earth-grounded three-pin socket outlet only.

represent the right channels. In Single Mono mode channels Ch1,
and Ch3 represent the left mono channels.
In Stereo, Joint Stereo and Dual Channel mode, you only use
channels Ch1 and Ch3.
Note: The number of channels displayed depends on whether your
encoder is equipped with a Dual Channel Audio (DCA) card or a
Multiple Channel Audio (MCA) card. MCA cards provide six
configurable audio channels, allowing you to configure Ch 1
through Ch 12.

For the lowest audio bit rates it's often recommendable to use the
lowest sample rate for best quality.
Description:The bit rate must be ≤ 192 kbit/s if you set the Layer II mode to
Mono.
If you use Joint stereo it is recommended that you use bit rates up to
128 or 192 kbit/s. Joint Stereo with a bit rate of 256 or 384 kbit/s
reduces sound quality compared to stereo.

Setting Up the Video Input
To Set Up the Video Input
Proceed as follows to set up the Video Input:
1. From the user interface of the D9054 HD Encoder, click the Video tab.
2. Select the Video Format.
You may select 1080i/25 Hz, 1080i/29.97 Hz, 720p/50 Hz or 720p/59.94 Hz
formats.
3. Set the Frame Synchronization.
You may select Off, Internal Clock or External Reference. The default is Off.
When Off is selected, the internal frame synchronizer is bypassed. This provides
the best lip sync as the internal clock is locked to the incoming video signal.
When Internal Clock is selected, an internal reference is used as the encoding
reference. The internal clock should be used when the encoder is connected to
an unstable video source.
If the encoder is configured for an external reference, it will use an SD analog
video signal to reference its encoding reference. If the encoder is configured to
pass Dolby AC3, AAC or Dolby E/linear pre-encoded audio, it is mandatory
that the frame synchronizer be set to Off or that the external reference is locked
to the incoming video source.
4. Click Apply.

Setting Up the H.264 Video Encoder
To Set Up the H.264 Video Encoder
Proceed as follows to set up the Video Encoder:
1. From the user interface of the D9054 HD Encoder, click the Video tab and then
the H.264 icon from the sub-pages.
2. Select Enable Encoder to enable the video encoder.
Disabling the video encoder means that the video program will not be encoded.
If you have defined an audio only program it will continue to be encoded.
3. Select the Chroma Format.
The chroma format is fixed at 4:2:0.
If you have problems with the video delay, see Setting Up the H.264 Video
Encoder Delays, page 5-21.
4. Select the Video Encoding Profile.
The default is Main. High Profile is also available if you purchased the High
Profile option license. High Profile provides a marginal reduction in the
required bit rate without degradation in the video quality.
4038938 Rev AD9054 HDTV Encoder Intstallation and Operation Guide5-13
Page 98
Setting Up the H.264 Video Encoder, Continued
5. If the High Profile license is installed, and High Profile is selected as the Video
Encoding profile as shown below, all of the High Profile Features should be
enabled (checked) for optimal compression efficiency. Individual features
should only be disabled if the decoder(s) do not support the particular feature.
Note: For this application you must be using decoders downstream which
support High Profile functionality to make use of these features such as the
D9887 HDTV Modular Receiver.
Each of the High Profile settings are described below:
Intra 8x8 Prediction - selects Intra 8x8 prediction mode and 8x8 transform for
Intra-coded macroblocks in addition to Intra 16x16 and 4x4 prediction modes in
Main Profile. This increases compression efficiency.
Inter 8x8 Transform - selects 8x8 transform for Inter-coded macroblocks in
addition to 4x4 transform in Main Profile. This increases compression efficiency.
QP scaling - selects different quantization step sizes for each frequency. This
improves subjective quality at lower bit rates or for stressed content.
6. Select Full, 3/4, 2/3 or 1/2 Sub-sampling.
Subsampling decreases the resolution of the source material in order to lower
the amount of data to be encoded. 2/3 horizontal resolution is not supported for
720p.
7. Enable Dynamic GOP. Dynamic GOP should always be enabled for best video
quality.
Dynamic GOP adds to end-to-end delay. If lower end-to-end delay is more
important than video quality, then Dynamic GOP should be turned off
(disabled).
When Dynamic GOP is on (the default is off), the encoder selects between two
hierarchical GOP structures, one with 3 B-pictures and the other with 15 Bpictures. The selection is automatically based on video content (scene’s spatiotemporal complexity).
When using Dynamic GOP, the GOP Length must be a multiple of 16 (i.e., 16,
32, 48, etc).
8. Type the GOP Length.
The GOP length must be in the range from 1 to 255.
5-14D9054 HDTV Encoder Intstallation and Operation Guide4038938 Rev A
Page 99
Setting Up the H.264 Video Encoder, Continued
9. Type the Number of B-Pictures.
The number of B pictures must be 0, 1, 2, 3, 7 or 15.
For I-Frames only (i.e., IIII..) set GOP Length = 1 and Number of B-pictures = 0.
For IPIP..., set GOP Length = 2, Number of B-Pictures = 0.
For IPPIPP..., set GOP Length = 3, Number of B-Pictures = 0.
For typical MPEG-like GOP (i.e., IBBP...) set GOP Length = 15, Number of BPictures = 2.
10. Set the 3:2 Pulldown Inversion (abbreviated 3:2 PDI) to On if you are going to
encode 1080i/29.97 Hz material.
This improves the picture quality when encoding 1080i/29.97 Hz material that
originates from film.
Turn off the 3:2 PDI in the following instances:
SituationReason
Your decoders are not fully MPEG2 compliant.
You need to encode all frames3:2 PDI removes some of the frames and
The 3:2 PDI feature is only applicable for the 1080i/29.97 Hz format.
Note: Enabling 3:2 PDI increases the delay by 1 frame.
Important: Do not enable or disable 3:2 PDI during live operation. The D9054
HD Encoder restarts if you enable or disable 3:2 PDI.
11. Click Apply.
The decoders may not accept information
on picture repetition and cannot
regenerate a correct video sequence.
this means that you cannot provide full
picture-to-picture transparency from the
video input to the Transport Stream.

Overview
When 24 fps film is converted to 29.97 or 30 Hz HD video, the film frame rate needs
to be up-converted in order to be displayed on a TV set. This process is called 3:2
pulldown.
Basically 3:2 pulldown inversion brings back movie's original frame rate from HD’s
29.97 or 30 fps to 24 fps.
3:2 Pulldown
The 3:2 pulldown technique is used to generate video at HD frame rates from a 24
fps film source. With this technique, additional video frames are generated from the
film frames according to a characteristic, repetitive pattern.
An unwanted side-effect of this process is picture redundancy and higher load of an
encoder. The 3:2 pulldown inversion technique inverts the process and removes the
redundant frames thus increasing encoding efficiency.
3:2 Pulldown Inversion
The 3:2 PDI feature of the D9054 HD Encoder excludes the pictures of a 1080i/29.97
Hz video signal that have been duplicated through 3:2 pulldown, and allows the
D9054 HD Encoder to encode the original frames at film rate. The data in the
Transport Stream from the D9054 HD Encoder includes information on picture
repetition so that a standards-compliant decoder may output a video signal at
correct 29.97, 30, 59.94 or 60 Hz HD frame rates.
