Multi-format/multi-input compatibility
•Multi-FormatCompatibility: Compatible with various image
formats (see the table). Input signals are automatically detected
and displayed.
•Multi-InputCompatibility: Comes standard with two SDI (3G/HD/
SD) inputs, one analog composite input, and one HDMI input.
Two SDI outputs can also be set to input to enable all four inputs
via SDI.
•Two-ScreenVideoDisplay: Any two desired input images can be
displayed side by side with two screens.
Embedded audio for simple down-mixing
Embedded audio in the SDI and HDMI input can be automatically
detected and output to the built-in stereo speakers, headphone
jacks, or two line-out channels. The output pair channels can be
selected and displayed in the level meter. The 5.1-channel surround
sound can be easily down-mixed according to the down-mixing
ratios by ARIB and ISO/IEC, and output as stereo sound.
External memory functions
Menu settings, preset data, user markers, and full-screen capture
grab data can be stored on a USB flash drive. By copying and using
other BT-LH1770P settings data, multiple monitors can be easily set.
The data can also be managed with a personal computer.
Two-screen/full-screen comparison displays
for multiple camera operation
Two screens of capture images (stills) and input images (videos)
can be displayed on the two screens of both sides, or split onto the
full screen for comparison. This is convenient for adjusting the
image quality of multiple cameras,
and aligning image positions. Up to
100 sets of capture screen data
can be saved onto a USB flash
drive, so the coloring and position
of previously captured images and
cameras can be easily aligned.
