Introduction 9062 Functional Description

Video Processor Description

The 9062 features a scaler that provide s up, down, and cross- conversion usi ng de-interlacing and motion adaptation for high quality up-conversions. The scaler also provides user-adjustable aspect ratio control and zoom control. Separate controls are provided for SD and HD inputs that allow the card to flexibly and independently handle mixed input formats. The 9062 video subsystem also provides the functions described below.

Video Processor

The 9062 provides full color processing control (luma gain and lift, chroma saturation, and color phase) of the output video.

Frame Sync Function

This function p rovide s for fra me s ync co ntrol usin g e ither one of t wo ext ern al

EXT REF IN (1,2) reference sign als di stri buted wit h the ca rd fra me, or the inpu t

video as a frame sync reference. This function also allows horizontal and/or vertical offset to be added between the output video and the frame sync reference.

A video/audio delay offset function allows adding or reducing audio delay from the matching video delay. This function is useful for correcting lip sync problems when video and audio paths in the chain experience differing overall delays. A Reset Framesync function resets the frame sync following any horizontal or vertical offset changes, clearing any buffered audio and video and re-establ ishing t he frame s ync. The 906 2 re-est ablishes vi deo/audi o sync following framesy nc changes by appl ying an of fset in small, progre ssive amounts to provide a seamless, glitch-free retiming. A user-selectable hard resync function allows setting a threshold at which hard resync is applied if audio-video offset exceeds a selectable threshold. Hard resync provides fastest snyc-up suitable for off-air manipulation. Conversely, a threshold setting that avoids hard resync allows glitch-free on-air manipulation. In the event of input video loss of signal, this function provides for disabling the video, going to a desired color raster, or freezing to the last intact frame (frame having valid SAV and EAV codes).

Scaler Function

The scaler function provides up, down, and cross-conversions between multiple standard SD and HD video formats, multiple frame rates, film frame rates, and cross-conv ersion bet ween interl aced and progre ssive form ats. Table 1-1 lists the 9062 conversion choices available for various input formats and frame rates .

When output video is set to 720p for either SD or HD video, the 720p output can be converted to 7 20p half-r ate for mats as lis ted in Table 1-1. When output video is set to 1080 film (1080p23.98) for either SD or HD inputs, the 9062 can convert the output to 1080P sF23. 98 (seg mente d frame progre ssive) . Both of these functions c an be i ndepend ently appli ed to e ither SD and/o r HD vide o inputs.

Notes: 1. The drop-down list choice of “Same as Input” is used when no conversion is desired. For clarity, it is not redundantly listed here.

2. “X” denotes conversions not available or invalid conversions.

3. Interlaced formats rates listed are field rates. Progressive format rates listed are frame rates.

4. If the original material does not have a proper 3-2 cadence suitable for conversion to film rates, the conversion reverts t o standard de-interlacing. While this video can be converted to film rates, the resulting image motion will lack smoothness. Therefore, make certain interlaced video is appropriately constructed for 3-2 reverse pulldown when converting video to film rates. See 3-2 Pulldown Conversion and Considerations (p. 1-11).

5. Formats using a 30/29.97 Hz progressive frame rate can be converted to a 24/23.98 Hz progressive frame rate, however some image motion irregularity will appear in the converted output.

6. “NTSC” and “PAL” in this manual informally refer to 486i5994 and 575i50 SD-SDI video formats, respectively.

The scaler function also provides aspect ratio conversion that provides a choice from several standard aspect ratios. Additionally, user defined and “Follow AFD Settings” conversion can be applied. User defined settings allow custom user-de fin ed H and V aspect ratio control. “Follow AFD Settings” se ts the output aspect ratio to track with AFD (Active Format Description) settings embedded in the received video signal.

Timecode Processor

(See Figure 1-2.) This fun ct ion provi de s for ext rac ti on of time code data fro m the input video, and in turn re-insertion of timecode data into the output SDI. In this manner, timecode data can be preserved, even aft er fo rmat conv ersi on. The function can monitor the SDI video input of the card for supported timecode formats, and then select and prioritize among SDI VITC, SDI ATC_VITC, and SDI A TC_LTC, and embedded audio LTC timecode sources. If the preferred format is detected, the preferred format is used by the card; if the preferred format is not detected, the card uses other formats (where available) as desired. The function also provides conversion between various timecode formats and provides independent insertion and line number controls for each SDI tim ecode output format.

Option +LTC allows bidirectional transfer and conversion between VBI formats over SDI and audio LTC, as well as RS-485 LTC. Audio LTC can be received or sent over a selected embedded channel.

3-2 Pulldown Conversion and Considerations

Figure 1-3 depicts the 3-2 pulldown process used for conversions between progressive film video formats and interlaced video formats. (Although the term “3-2” is used here per convention, it is more accurately described as 2-3 per the diagram here and SMPTE definitions which stipulate that first film frame

A be represented exclusively by 2 fields from the same frame). As

shown in Figure 1-3, the term 2-3 is derived from the pattern, or cadence, in which four consecut iv e f il m vid eo f ra me s a re conv erted into five conse cut ive interlaced video frames (i.e., 10 interlaced video fields). Odd and even interlaced fields are denoted in Figure 1-3 by “

”). Note the considerations described in Figure 1-3 for converting to film

rates.

Using reverse pulldown, each film video frame is constructed from 2 interlaced fields with odd and even fields selected as shown. The conversion pattern shown reverses the pulldown, thereby restoring the original signal.

Note:If the original interlaced material does not have the cadence described here, the conversion reverts to standard de-interlacing. While this video can be converted to film rates, the resulting image motion will lack smoothness. Therefore, make certain interlaced video is appropriately constructed for reverse pulldown when converting video to film rates. Similarly, formats using a 30/29.97 Hz progressive frame rate can be converted to a 24/23.98 Hz progressive frame rate, however some image motion irregularity will appear in the converted output.

Audio Processor Description

The audio processor operates as an internal audio router. The router function chooses from the following inputs:

• 16 channels of embedded audio from the SDI video input

• Four independent internal tone generators (described below)

• Internal Down Mix and Mono Mixer outputs (described below)

• Digital silence (mute) setting

The router function p rovi de s up to 16 channels of embe dde d audio on the

OUT

outputs. The router acts as a full audio cross point. Each of the 16

SDI

embedded output channels can receive signal from any one of the 16 embedded input channels, four internal tone generators, or several mixer outputs. Unused output channels can be mapped to a “Silence” source. Each output also provides gain adjustment and selectable polarity inversion.

Output audio rates are always 48 kHz locked to output video. (embedded audio must be nominally 48 kHz input; 32, 44.1, 96, and 192 kHz inputs are not compatible with the 9062.) Embedded output audio is always precisely synchronized with the output video.

As set with the defau lt setting s, the routin g between embedded audio channels is basic 1-for-1 for the 16 embedded audio channels (with embedded Ch 1 being embedded to embedded Ch 1 at the SDI output, and so on). Other sources and/or destinations for each channel are selected using the card edge controls or a remote control system.

Audio Down Mix and Mono Mix Function

(See Figure 1-4.) The Audio Down Mixer function provides for the selection of any five embedded audio sources ser ving as Left ( Left Surround ( multiplexed into stereo pair Down Mix Left ( (

The 2.0-to-5.1 upmixer can be set to up mix in any of three modes: Always upmix, Bypass upmix, or Auto enable/bypass upmixing. The Auto upmixing mode looks at the sig nal l evels on the sele cted chann els and c ompares th em to a selectable level threshold. It then determines whether or not to generate 5.1 upmixing from the stereo pair as follows:

• If the upmixer detects signal level below a selected threshold on all

four of the selected channels designated as

C, LFE, Ls, and Rs, this

indicates to the upmixer that these channels are not carrying 5.1. In this case, the upmixer o verwrites all six selected channels with the new 5.1 content.

• If the upmixer detects signal level above a selected threshold on any

of the four selected channels designated as

C, LFE, Ls, and Rs, this

indicates to the upmixer that the channel(s) are already carrying viable 5.1 content. In t his cas e, the upmix er is bypa ssed, al lo wing the original channels to pass unaffected.

Chapter 2 Installation and Setup

Overview

This chapter contains the following information:

• Installing the 9062 Into a Frame Slot (p. 2-1)

• Installing a Rear I/O Module (p. 2-3)

• Setting Up 9062 Network Remote Control (p. 2-6)

Installing the 9062 Into a Frame Slot

CAUTION

Heat and power distribution requirements within a frame may dictate specific slot placement of cards. Cards with many heat-producing compon ents should be arranged to avoid areas of excess heat build-up, particularly in frames using only convection cooling. The 9062 has a moderate power dissipation (24 W max.). As such, avoiding placing the card adjacent to other cards with similar dissipation values if possible.

Chapter 2

CAUTION

This device contains semiconductor devices which are susceptible to serious damage from Electrostatic Discharge (ESD). ESD damage may not be immediately apparent and can affect the long-term reliability of the device.

Avoid handling circuit boards in high static environments such as carpeted areas, and when wearing synthetic fiber clothing. Always use proper ESD handling precautions and equipment when working on circuit boards and related equipment.

Note: • If installing the 9062 in a slot already equipped with a suitable I/O

module, proceed to card installation steps below.

• If installing the 9062 in a slot with no rear I/O module, a Rear I/O Module is required before cabling can be connected. Refer to Installing a Rear I/O

Module (p. 2-3) for rear I/O module installation procedure.

9062-O M (V4.6) 9062 PRODUCT MANUAL 2-1

2 Installing the 9062 Into a Frame Slot

CAUTION

Note: Check the packaging in which the 9062 was shipped for any extra items such

as a Rear I/O Module connection label. In some cases, this label is shipped with the card and to be installed on the Rear I/O connector bank corresponding to the slot location of the card.

Install the 9062 into a frame slot as follows:

1. Determine the slot in which the 9062 is to be installed.

2. Open the frame front access panel.

3. While holding the card by the card edges, align the card such that the

plastic ejector tab is on the bottom.

4. Align the card with the top and bottom guides of the slot in which the

card is being installed.

5. Gradually slide the card into the slot. When resistance is noticed, g ently

continue pushing the card until its rear printed circuit edge terminals engage fully into the rear I/O module mating connector.

CAUTION

If card resists fully engaging in rear I/O module mating connector, check for alignment and proper insertion in slot tracks. Damage to card and/or rear I/O module may occur if improper card insertion is attempted.

Verify that the card is fully engaged in rear I/O module mating

connector.

7. Close the frame front access panel.

8. Connect the input a nd output cables as s hown in 9062 Rear I/O Modules

(p. 2-5).

9. Repeat steps 1 through 8 for other 9062 cards.

Note: External frame sync reference signals are received by the card over a refer-

ence bus on the card frame, and not on any card rear I/O module connectors. The frame has BNC connectors labeled REF 1 and REF 2 which receive the reference signal from an external source such as a house distribution.
