Note:

1 Introduction

1.1 Description

The IQUDC modules provide multi-rate up, down, and cross conversion for 3 Gbit/s SDI, and HD-SDI digital video signals. Using high-quality motion adaptive de-interlacing and flexible scaling technology, the modules are ideal for space-constrained installations, or for applications requiring simultaneous HD and SD output feeds.

The frame synchronizer is capable of referencing to a SD bi-level or HD tri-level reference and a variable aspect ratio converter with frame accur ate reading and writing of WSS, VI, and 2016 AFD signaling. Audio handling includes audio channel routing, delay adjustment and level controls, as well as AES audio I/O on the IQUDC32 and IQUDC33. Video metadata such as timecode, closed captions, and teletext captions can also be passed through the modules or processed according to the required output standard.

To allow the modules to be further tailored to system requirements, software options are available to provide noise reduction, sidebar keying, linear frame rate conversion and logo insertion. Versions are also available with SFP cages which enable fiber conversion, or additional electrical outputs on HD-BNCs.

5.3.5 Legalization

Legalizer ensures that the output video stays within the legal RGB gamut limit, making it suitable for the broadcast signal chain. To achieve this, the Legalizer reduces the gain equally on all channels.

The level the legalizer scales down to is selected using the radio buttons in RollCall. Anything in the RGB space above the selected level is scaled down to that level. Anything in the RGB space below 0 mV is clipped to 0 mV. This is a good compromise between minimizing hue change and raising apparent brightness.

Legalizer choices are:

• Off (Default)

•700mV

•721mV

•735mV

•746mV

5.3.6 SFP Output Routing

In a dual-channel product that has SFP TX connectors, the source of the SFP output can be either channel 1 or channel 2. The SFP outputs are only available in products variants that have an SFP connector rear panel. If the rear panel has no SFP connector, the output option is hidden.

The SFP input selections will appear grayed out if either no SFP module or an unsupported SFP module is inserted in the rear panel connector.

• SFP Source 1 and 2: Selects the source, either channel 1 or channel 2, for SFP 1 and SFP 2 if they are transmit ports.

Note: SFP Source 1 and 2 can be set from either the Output-Ch1 or Output-Ch2 screen – any change in one screen is reflected in the other. See page 40.

5.3.7 Test Patterns

The Test Patterns list enables you to choose the type of pattern displayed on the output picture. You can choose from Off, Black, Ramp, and Bars.

• YC Offset: Adjusts the horizontal chroma shift, for use when correcting upstream luma-chroma displacement. The adjustment range is -20 to 20 in steps of 2 luma clocks.

At the input picture edge, zero chroma is shifted into the active picture area. If the ARC is set to show less than the full width of the input picture, valid input picture chroma is shifted into the output picture area.

5.4.2 Nonlinear Enhancer

The Nonlinear Enhancer defines the amount of enhancement applied to a video to help regain lost detail. This could be as a result of degraded material, post production processes, or because the initial capture conditions were not ideal.

The controls enable you to apply enhancement to the low, medium, and high frequency bands, and to create a custom setting if required.

• Enable: Enables the enhancer.

• Mode: Preset controls.

• Low: Sets Level to 2 and Noise Rejection to 15% for the selected frequency

band.

• Medium: Sets Level to 4 and Noise Rejection to 15% for the selected frequency

band.

IQUDC30/IQUDC31/IQUDC32/IQUDC33 Operation Using the RollCall Control Panel

5.4.4.1 Recursive

To achieve noise reduction, the recursive filter applies a temporal recursive filter to both luminance and chrominance picture content. To avoid blurring moving objects, the filter includes motion detection and adaption which disables the filter when significant motion is present.

The Luma and Chroma controls set the maximum noise reduction (0 = off). You can set the sensitivity of motion detection either automatically with Auto mode, or manually with the Threshold slider.

• Luma: Adjusts the amount of noise reduction applied to the luminance signal. The adjustment range is 0 to 7 in steps of 1. The preset value is 0.

• Chroma: Adjusts the amount of noise reduction applied to the chrominance signal. The adjustment range is 0 to 7 in steps of 1. The preset value is 0.

• Threshold: Adjusts the noise reduction threshold. The adjustment range is 0 to 7 in steps of 1. The preset value is 0.

• Mode: Choose between automatic or manual filtering. In Auto mode, the background noise level is mea sured and the thresh old set to give a

good compromise between noise reduction and motion blur. In Manual mode, increasing the Threshold value allows for pictures with higher background noise.

5.4.4.2 Spatial

The spatial noise reduction filter operates on luminance only and uses nearby samples to average out noise. Picture objects and edges are detected and the filtering disabled.

Y o u can set the sensitivity of edge detectio n either automatically with Auto mode, or ma nually with the Threshold slider.

• Level: Adjusts the level of noise reduction applied to the signal. The adjustment range

5.5 Convert-Ch1 and Ch2

The Convert-Ch1 and Ch2 screens enable control of motion processing and improve the conversion performance of stationary content.

The Convert-Ch2 screen is only applicable to the IQUDC31 and IQUDC33.

5.5.1 Up Conversion

• Clean Edge Upconversion: Enables the Texture Adaptive Upconversion (TAU) process which helps to adapt away any horizontal ringing (vertica l edges).

5.5.2 Motion Processing

• Still Process: Uses powerful motion detection techniques to extract the maximum resolution from interlaced sources while format or standards co nverting (where fitted). The benefits of this processing are prominent on sta tic logos and computer-generated overlays.

• Enhanced Still: Adds field motion detection to still processing. This reduces artifacts on moving repetitive patterns.

• Enhanced Film Model: Applies an aperture with full progressive frequency re spon se where the input is film transported by an interlaced video rate input, with cadence enabled (see section 5.5.3).

• Enhanced De-interlace: Replaces missing lines with a gradient between the previous and following lines. This control improves the appearance of de-interlaced images and is useful when dealing with complex shapes.

• Clean Cut: Prevents temporal filtering across a cut in scenes, which can result in several frames either side of the cut being a mix of the two different scenes.

Note:

5.5.3 Enhanced Film Mode

The Enhanced Film Mode provides a set of solutions to enable optimized conversion of film originated content. Film originated content may be transported by standards supporting the original film frame rate, such as 1080 23.98p. Film originated content may also be packed into interlaced standards using a rule based method to map source frames to interlaced fields. In this case, the interlaced standard's content is described as having a film cadence.

In order to perform high quality conversion of film originated content, the cadence must be identified and used to adapt the interpolation process. The Enhanced Film Mode also pe rmit s the synthesis of film cadence in the output.

The Enhanced Film Mode features include:

• Applying a 2:3 cadence when converting 23.94 psf to 59.94Hz.

• 2:3 detection and removal when converting 59.94 2:3 to 23.98 psf.

• Maintain 2:3 cadence when up-converting 59.94 2:3 content.

• Maintain 2:3 cadence when down-converting 59.94 2:3 content.

• Maintain psf cadence when appropriate.

• Control 2:3 cadence with respect to timecode.

The “Enhanced Film Mode” sets a sharp conversion aperture suited to filmic content. Select “on” under the Enhanced Film Mode menu option (default is off). For content that is not exclusively filmic, or where there are inconsistencies with the input cadence, this mode may create higher visibility of artifacts.

This mode is only relevant for film originated content where the cadence is carried in an interlaced format. In circumstances where the film originated content is carried in a progressive format, the “Enhanced Film Mode” setting should not be used.

5.5.4 Input Cadence

Input Cadence controls allow you to define any cadence associated with the input video.

• Film Cadence - Enable if the input content is film originated, or simulates film originated content. Default = Off.

• 59 Cadence - If the input is film originated and its frame rate is 59.94Hz, then the cadence should be defined as either

• 2:3 (Default)

• 2:2 (psf)

• 2:3 Source

• When set to Automatic (Default) the input cadence will be determined by the

cadence detection circuit. This feature is useful when the source material contains mixed cadences.

• When set to Input Timecode, the user defines the relationship between

timecode and the 2:3 sequence. This feature is useful when the source material contains known continuous 2:3. This setting removes any uncert ainty that may be associated by use of the sequence detector (automatic mode).

• 2:3 Start Hour - This control allows the user to define the position of timecode when the 2:3 sequence begins. The assumption is mad e th at th e start of the 2: 3 seq u en ce is aligned with the start of program and under norm al working practices, that the start of program is coincident with a integer hour value.

This control is only active when “2:3 Source” is set to Input Timecode. Control is available from 1 hour to 23 hours in steps of 1 hour. Default is 1 hour.

IQUDC30/IQUDC31/IQUDC32/IQUDC33 Operation Using the RollCall Control Panel

Note:

5.5.5 Output Cadence

The Output Cadence controls enable yo u to defi ne the required cadence of the output video.

• Film Cadence - Enable if the output content is required to have a film cadence associated with it. Default = Off

• 59 Cadence - If the output is to have a film cadence associated with it an d its frame rate is 59.94Hz, then the cadence should be defined as either

• 2:3 (Default)

• 2:2 (psf)

• 2:3 Source - In circumstances where the output is defined as 59.94 2:3, this control allows the user to decide if they wish to control the starting point of the 2:3 sequence with respect to timecode.

• When set to Free Run (Default) the output 2:3 cadence starting point is not

defined. The output will have continuous 2:3, but may vary from conversion to conversion.

• When set to Output Timecode, the user defines the point where the 2:3

sequence starts relative to timecode.

• 2:3 Start Hour - This control allows the user to define the starting position of the 2:3 sequence with respect to timecode. It is only active when 2:3 Source is set to Output Timecode.

Control is available from 1 hour to 23 hours in steps of 1 hour. Default is 1 hour.

Cadence support is only available to modules released at V5.2.7 and above. Earlier modules which were upgraded to V5.2.7 after installation will not support cadence control.

5.6.3 Signaling Detected

Signaling Detected shows the status of any aspect ratio signaling detected at the input. If Status shows “None”, no valid signaling is detected.

5.6.4 Sidebar Keying & Output Crop (Option)

The Sidebar Keying & Output Crop functionality provides post ARC cropping of the output picture and allows a second video picture to be keyed into the cropped area. When output cropping is enabled, the actual size of the output picture does not change, just how much of the active picture remains visible. The portion that is “cropped” is either default black (in Output Crop mode) or is replaced by a secondary video picture (in Sidebar Key mode) – the “cropped” portion still forms part of the output picture.

Output Crop is always available but Sidebar Key is a licensed option.

5.6.4.1 Mode

• Off: Disables both Output Crop and Sidebar Keying.

• Output Crop: Crops the output picture. In this mode the cropped area is black by default. The cropped area is defined using the Output Cro p Position controls. See see section 5.6.4.2 below.

• Sidebar Key: Keys a second video picture into the cropped area, as defined using the Output Crop Position controls (see see section 5.6.4 .2 below). When selected, the source of the second video picture is becomes available in the Sidebar Key Source menu. See page 55.

5.6.4.2 Output Crop Position

The Output Crop position controls enable you to adjust which portion of the video picture is visible by applying a border around the outside of the picture. The controls do not alter the output active picture size – each control separately defines a percentage of the picture to be replaced by a border . In Output Cro p mode, the border is d efault black. In Sidebar Key mo de, the border is the “key” area replaced by the secondary Sidebar Key video source.

Controls are paired: top with bottom and left with right. A pair of controls has limitations to prevent an overlap. The rule is that only 99% o f the picture can be cropped, either horizon tally or vertically. For example, if Top is set to 50%, Bottom cannot exceed 49%.

• Top: Crops the output picture, from the top-edge down. The adjustment range is 0% to 99% in 1% steps (0%). The default is 0%.

• Bottom: Crops the output picture, from the bottom-e dge up . The ad justment r an ge is 0% to 99% in 1% steps. The default is 0%.

• Left: Crops the ou tput picture, from the lef t-edge right. The adjustment ra nge is 0% to 99% in 1% steps. The default is 0%.

• Right: Crops the output picture, from the right-edge left. The adjustmen t range is 0% to 99% in 1% steps. The default is 0%.

Note:

5.6.4.3 Sidebar Key Source

If the sidebar key option is available, the Sidebar Key Source control will also be present. This control becomes active when Sidebar Key mode is selected. Firstly a border is set up around the active picture using the separate Output Crop Position controls. This control then selects the secondary video source to be keyed over the border area.

In order for this to work correctly, the following rules must be met:

• Sidebar Key Source must be of the same format and frame rate to the output video standard for this channel.

• If the key source selected is of a d if f erent standard to the main video outp ut st andar d, only Output Crop Mode is available.

• Ensure the key source has the correct vertical genlock alignment. If not, the sidebar key will not have the correct vertical position.

The available sidebar key sources vary depending on the product variant:

• Single-channel product: all video inputs are available .

• Dual-channel product: all video inputs plus output from other channel are available.

All video inputs is Serial SDI, CVBS, and SFP.

Sidebar Key Source options that are not available to the product are hidd en from the selection list (for example, the output of the second channel in a single-channel product, or SFP input if no SFP rear is fitted).

Sidebar Key Source options that are not suitable are grayed out from the selection list (for example, the source is the not the same output standard as the video it is being “keyed” into, or SFP 2 is actually a TX so is not available as an input.

5.6.5 Post Scaling Control

Post Scaling Control enables you to manually adjust the size and position of the output picture, post ARC scaling. This is an additional level of control which does not affect the ARC.

• Post Scaling Enable: Enables the Post Scaling controls.

• Size: Adjusts the size of the whole output image while maintaining aspe ct ratio. The adjustment range is 80% to 120% in 1% steps. The preset value is 100%.

• Aspect: Adjusts the aspect ratio of the output image. The adjustment ran ge is 70% to 150% in 1% steps. The preset value is 100%.

• Pan: Adjusts the horizontal position of the output image. Range is from -50 to 50 pixels in steps of 1 pixel. Preset = 0

• Tilt: Adjusts the vertical position of the output ima ge. Range is -5 0 to 50 lines in ste ps of 1 line. Preset = 0

5.6.6 Standard Presets When No Aspect Signaling

If no input aspect signaling is available and the conversion required is always from a known input aspect ratio to another known input aspect ratio, one of the standard presets may be selected. The presets are sub-divided into SD to SD cross conversion, SD to HD/3G up conversion, and HD/3G to SD down conversion.

These presets are only active when the Aspect Signaling Control Enable check box is deselected.

5.6.6.1 SD Input is 702

SD Input is 702 is an additional ARC preset mode, which is available for incoming content that uses a 702 sample line rather than a 720 sample line. If the incoming content uses a 702 sample line, select the check box. This introduces an additional H scaling factor of 720/702, resulting in a slight horizontal stretch.

This control only has an effect on SD inputs.

SD Input 702 introduces an additional h scaling factor of 720/702.

5.6.6.2 SD Output is 702

SD Output is 702 is an additional ARC preset mode, which is available for outgoing content that requires a 702 sample line rather than a 720 sample line. If the outgoing content requires a 702 sample line, select the check box. This introduces an additional H scaling factor of 702/720, resulting in a slight horizontal squeeze.

5.6.7 Aspect Signaling Control – Scaling Control

The Scaling Control functions enable you to configure the ARC output format. The controls are only active when using input aspect signaling to control the ARC input format. Using input aspect signaling allows dynamic control of the ARC. A fixed aspect is selected for the output image, and the aspect signaling then defines the incoming image aspect ratio. As this signal changes on frame boundaries, the ARC is reconfigured to perform the correct conversion.

5.6.7.1 SD Input Format if Signaling Unknown

When using input aspect signaling with an SD input source, it is possible to set a default input ARC setting. If, for any reason, the input SD aspect signaling cannot be detected, the ARC assumes this default setting.

• Use Manual if Unknown: Enables manual ARC control.

• SD Input Format: The SD input format.

• Normal: Default 4:3 aspect ratio.

• Anamorphic: Horizontally squeezes a widescreen image to fit a standard 4:3

aspect ratio.

• Letterbox: Preserves the original aspect ratio of film shot in a widescreen aspect

ratio, with bars visible at the top and bottom of the screen.

5.6.7.2 SD Output Format

When Aspect Signaling Control is enabled and the output video is SD, this control enables you to set fixed output aspects for the ARC.

• Normal: Default aspect ratio.

• Anamorphic: Horizontally squeezes a widescreen image to fit a standard 4:3 aspect ratio.

5.6.7.3 Conversion Scaling

Conversion Scaling enables you to set fixed ARC output aspects.

• Fit to Height: Scales the image to fit the height of the screen while maintaining the aspect ratio.

• Fit to Width: Scales the image to fit the width of the screen while maintaining the aspect ratio.

• 14:9: Can scale either a 4:3 image for viewing on a 16:9 screen, or a 16:9 image for viewing on a 4:3 screen. This is a compromise in order to maintain the aspect ratio of the image, but will crop some of the image in the process (top and bottom when viewing 16:9 and left and right when viewing 4:3).

See see section 5.6.8 for a list of possible ARC conversions using input signaling and a combination of SD Output Format and Scaling Conversion controls.

5.6.8 Input Signaling ARC Conversions

It is possible to manually fix the output aspect of the ARC when using input signaling. The input to the ARC is then defined by the dynamic input signaling.

The following sections show the ARC conversions possible using input signaling and a combination of SD Output Format and Scaling Conversion controls. For each of the conversions there are four columns of images. The first column shows the source image in various formats, with each format described in the accomp anyin g input signal. The next three columns show the output image format when the Fit to Width, 14:9, or Fit to Height Conversion Scaling controls are selected.

The SMPTE 2016 controls define how the SMPTE 2016 signaling is configured when the Aspect Signaling Control Enable check box is selected. The controls also enable you to choose the output line number on which output signaling is embedded.

• Mode: Four modes of operation are available.

• Auto: Automatically generates an output SMPTE 2016 signal with AFD data that

• Pass: Passes input signal information through the unit unchanged when SMPTE

• Force: Generates an output SMPTE 2016 signal with AFD data that matches

• Delete: Disables embedding of SMPTE 2016 output signaling in the output video.

• Output Line 625: Selects the line number on which SMPTE 2016 signaling is embedded when the video output format is 625. The range is from line 7 to line 22 in one-line steps. The default is line 12.

• Output Line 525: Selects the line number on which SMPTE 2016 signaling is embedded when the video output format is 525. The range is from line 11 to line 19 in one-line steps. The default is line 11.

5.6.9.3 Alternate Center Cut

Alternate center cut is off by default. When off, behavior on receipt of certain specific AFD codes ignores protected regions. When Alternate center cut is on, the ARC beha vior for these six specific codes will be to remove any Black bars and also remove the grey bars that will leave the “Alternative Centre”. The Alternative centre will therefore be stretched to fit the screen so that the whole “white area” fills the screen. This will override Fit to width, 14:9 and Fit to height setting, so that all three give the same output result. It also overrides the “SD Output Format” control (“Anamorphic” or “Normal”). See SMPTE ST 2016-1 :2009, pages 7, 8 and 9.

The behavior with Alternate center cut on and off is shown in the table below:

5.6.9.4 VI (SMPTE RP 186-95/08)

The Video Index (VI) Config controls enable you to specify VI signaling output actions. VI is valid for both 625 and 525 output video formats. The lines used are:

• 625: Field 1 line 11, field 2 line 324.

• 525: Field 1 line 14, field 2 line 276.

VI signaling supports two output formats, which are the two versions of the SMPTE RP 186 specification.

• Mode: Output options.

• Auto: When Output Format is set to SMPTE, Auto generates an output VI signal

conforming to SMPTE RP 186-95 with scanning system information that matches the output aspect of the ARC. If Output Format is set to AFD, Auto generates an output VI signal conforming to SMPTE RP 186-08, with scanning system information and AFD that matches the output aspect of the ARC.

• Pass: When either VI SMPTE or VI AFD is selected as the input signaling

source, any valid SMPTE RP 186-95/08 input signal is passed through to the output unchanged irrespective of what output format is set. For both output formats, the output signal may not repr esent the actual aspect of the output image. If no VI signal is present at the input, then no VI signal will be output.

• Force: When Output Format is set to SMPTE, Force generates an output

SMPTE RP 186-95 signal with scanning system information that matches what is selected in the Force Output Signaling Setup – SMPTE RP 186 list. 4:3 and 16:9 are available, but the actual code used is determined by the output video standard: 625 or 525.

When Output Format is set to AFD, Force generat es an ou tpu t SM PTE RP 186-08 signal with scanning system information and AFD codes that match what is selected in the Force Output Signaling Setup – AFD list. The list contains eight AFD codes for scanning 4:3 system information, and eight AFD codes for scanning 16:9 system information. The actual scanning system information used is determined by the output video standard: 625 or 525.

• Delete: Disables embedding of any SMPTE RP 186-95/08 output sign aling in the

output video.

• Output Format: Output format options.

• SMPTE: Generates output VI signaling conforming to SMPTE RP 186-95,

carrying just the scanning system information relating to the output aspect of the ARC.

• AFD: Generates output VI signaling conforming to SMPTE RP 186-08. This

carries the scanning system information as well as AFD codes relating to the output aspect of the ARC. (This specification was originally generated as ARDSPEC1 by several Major UK broadcasters and later incorporated into SMPTE RP 186 2008 version.)

• VI Pass Data: Allows passing of VI user bits data to the output video. Note that the input signaling source selected has to match the selected output format.

5.6.9.5 L23 (ETSI EN 300 294 v1.4.1)

The L23 Config controls define how the output ETSI EN 300 294 signaling is config ured when the Aspect Signaling Control Enable check box is selected. This signaling format is generally referred to as WSS or Line 23 (L23), as this is the default line used to carr y this signal in 625. WSS is only valid for 625 output video formats and is only supported for 625 output video format.

WSS signaling supports two output format s: ETSI EN 300 294, an d a non- st and ard varia nt of ETSI EN 300 294.

• Mode: Output options.

• Auto: If Output Format is set to ETSI, Auto generates an output WSS signal

conforming to ETSI EN 300 294, with AFD codes that match the outpu t aspect of the ARC. If Output Format is set to AFD, Auto generates an output WSS signal conforming to L23, with scanning system information and AFD codes that match the output aspect of the ARC.

• Pass: When either L23 ETSI or L23 AFD is selected as the input signaling

source, any valid ETSI EN 300 294 input signal is passed through to the output unchanged irrespective of what output format is set. For both output formats, the output signal may not represent the actual aspect of the output image. If no WSS signal is present at the input, then no WSS signal will be output.

• Force: When Output Format is set to ETSI, Force generates an output ETSI EN

300 294 signal with AFD codes that match what is selected in the Force Output Signaling Setup – ETSI list. The list contains eight AFD codes.

When Output Format is set to AFD, Force generates an output ETSI EN 300 294 signal that is modified to carry VI scanning system information and AFD codes that match what is selected in the Force Output Signaling Setup – AFD list. The list contains eight AFD codes for scanning 4:3 system information, and eight AFD codes for scanning 16:9 system information. The actual scanning system information used will always be 625, as WSS is only supported in 625 video output.

• Delete: Disables embedding of ETSI EN 300 294 output sign alin g in the ou tp ut

video.

• Output Format: Inserts L23 information in either AFD or ETSI format.

• ETSI: Generates output WSS signaling conforming to ETSI EN 300 294, carrying

just the AFD codes relating to the output aspect of the ARC.

• AFD: Generates output WSS signaling conforming to ETSI EN 300 294;

however, payload of the signal has an alternative meaning: it has been modified to carry Video Index Scanning system information and AFD codes relating to the output aspect of the ARC. (This specification was originally generated as L23 spec by several major UK broadcasters and manufacturers. It has never been released as an official standard.)

• Input Line: WSS information is generally carried in the fist half of line 23; however, if the information is required on a different line, use the slider to specify the line on which it is carried in the input. The range is from line 10 to line 23 in one-line steps.

Note: ETSI EN 300 294 signaling will only be extracted from this line number if the video input format is 625.

IQUDC30/IQUDC31/IQUDC32/IQUDC33 Operation Using the RollCall Control Panel

Note:

• Output Line: WSS information is generally carried in the first half of line 23; however, if the information is required on a different line, use the slider to specify the line on which it is carried in the output. The range is from line 10 to line 23 in one-line steps.

Note: ETSI EN 300 294 signaling will only be extracted from this line number if the video input format is 625.

• Output Line Status: Shows the output line number on which WSS information is carried. If no line number is selected, “OFF” is displayed

• AFD User Bits:

• Force User Bits Value: Forces the value set on the User Bits Value slider into

the L23 output.

• User Bits Value: Sets the line on which the four additional user bits are carried.

WSS output signaling is only available in SD 625 output video format.

5.6.10 Aspect Signaling Control – Force Output Signaling Setup

Force Output Signaling Setup enables you to define the scanning system information and AFD codes inserted in the output signaling when Force is selected for any of the following three signaling types: SMPTE 2016, VI SMPTE RP 186, and WSS ETSI EN 300 294.

• SMPTE 2016: When SMPTE 2016 output signaling mode is set to Force, this control offers a list of 16 AFD codes for coded frame AR of 4:3 an d the same AFD codes for a coded frame AR of 16:9. Selecting one will generate a SMPTE 2016 output signal.

• SMPTE RP 186: When VI output signaling mode is set to Force and output format is set to SMPTE, this control offers a list of two scanning system information codes: 4:3 and 16:9. The actual code used is determined by the output video standard: 625 or

525. Selecting one will generate a SMPTE RP 186-95 output signal.

• AFD: When VI or L23 output signaling modes are set to Force, and their output formats are set to AFD, this control offers a list of eight AFD codes for scanning system information of 4:3, and eight AFD codes for scanning 16:9 system information. The actual scanning system information used is determined by the output video standard: 625 or 525. Selecting one will generate the following output signaling:

• SMPTE RP 186-08: VI mode = Force, Output Format = AFD.

• ETSI EN 300 294 (with SMPTE RP 186-08 payload): L23 mode = Force, Output

Format = AFD.

• ETSI: When WSS output signaling mode is set to Force and output format is set to ETSI, this control offers a list of eight AFD codes. Selecting one will generate a ETSI EN 300 294 output signal.

5.7 Audio Routing-Ch1 and Ch2

The Audio Routing-Ch1 and Ch2 screens are the first stage of the channel-based audio routing, with eight process pairs available for selection. The matrix of radio buttons enable you to route any available audio input pair to any process pair.

The Audio Routing-Ch2 screen is only applicable to the IQUDC31 and IQUDC33.

5.7.1 Input Pairs

All audio input pairs available for routing on the process channel are listed here along with their current input status. The input pairs displayed are dependent on the product configuration and licensing options. Each input pair corresponds to a row of radio buttons in the routing matrix.

5.7.1.1 Source

Source lists the input sources available for routing.

• Embedded 1 –8: If the selected video input to the processing channel is capable of carrying embedded audio, the de-embedded audio pairs will be available here. Up to eight audio pairs are available for each processing channel.

• AES 1–8: If the AES pairs are configured as inputs on the Audio I/O AES page screen, the input AES audio pairs will be available here. Up to eight AES audio pairs are available for each processing channel.

IQUDC30/IQUDC31/IQUDC32/IQUDC33 Operation Using the RollCall Control Panel

Note:

5.7.1.2 Status

The Status box shows the input status of the corresponding audio pair in the Source list.

• PCM: Audio is PCM.

• Loss: Audio is unavailable or invalid.

• Data: Audio is non-PCM and not Dolby E.

• DolbyE: Audio is Dolby E.

5.7.2 Process Pairs

Eight output pairs are available from the routing matrix. These pairs are called the process pairs, each of which corresponds to a column of radio buttons in the routing matrix.

• To route an input source pair to a process pair, simply select the radio button that intersects the desired input pair row, with the desired process pair column.

5.7.2.1 Status

The Status box shows the status of the corresponding process pa ir.

• P: Audio pair routed from input sources is PCM.

• L: Audio pair routed from input sources is not detected (Loss).

• N: Audio pair routed from input sources in non-PCM.

The “N” status refers to any valid input that is non-PCM, such as Data, Dolby D, or Dolby E.

Note:

5.8 Audio Shuffle-Ch1 and Ch2

The Audio Shuffle-Ch1 and Ch2 screens enables channel-based routing for PCM audio. Non-PCM audio is restricted to pair-based routing as channels cannot be split. The matrix of radio buttons enable you to route any available audio input p air to any process p air, providing this routing adheres to certain rules. See “Channel-based Routing Rules” on page 71 for more information.

The Audio Routing-Ch2 screen is only applicable to the IQUDC31 and IQUDC33.

5.8.1 Process Pairs

The Process Pairs column shows the eight process pairs selected on the Audio Routing-Ch1/Ch2 screen. Each of the eight pairs is split into left and right channels to allow channel-based routing. Each process pair channel corresponds to a row of radio buttons in the shuffle matrix.

5.8.2 Output Pairs

16 output channels available from the shuffl e matrix. These channels are gr ouped as pa irs for output processing, such as embedding. These channels are called the ou tput pairs, each of which corresponds to a column of radio buttons in the shuffle matrix.

• To route a process channel to an output channel, simply select the radio button that intersects the desired process channel row, with the desired output channel column.

IQUDC30/IQUDC31/IQUDC32/IQUDC33 Operation Using the RollCall Control Panel

Note:

5.8.2.1 Status

The Status box shows the status of the corresponding output pair.

• P: Audio pair routed out has two channels of PCM audio.

• N: Audio pair routed out has two channels of non-PCM audio.

• T: Audio pair routed out has two channels of test-tone audio.

• S: Audio pair routed out has two channels of silent audio.

• F: Audio pair routed out has two channels of forced mute (silent) audio.

“T” (test tone) and “S” (silence) are both considered PCM audio. Therefore, according to the channel-based routing rules, tone and silence can be routed with PCM audio. If only one channel of the output pair is test tone or silence, its status as a pair is shown as “P” (PCM).

5.8.3 Channel-based Routing Rules

Although channel-based routing of PCM data is possible with this mo dule, an issue may occur when channels contain non-PCM dat a, such as Dolby E. Because of the natu re of this type of data, a left/right pairing must remain together and be processed and routed as a pair. If not, the encoded data can become corrupt or, most likely, meaningless. This is also true if two channels of non-PCM data are routed together, but are not originally from the same encoding source. Outputting an audio pair that comprises one channel of non-PCM and one of PCM could potentially damage downstream audio equipment – it may become confused as to whether the channels are PCM or non-PCM.

For these reasons, each time a selection is made in the shuffle matrix, the software will compute a basic set of routing rules to guarantee that the output routing setup is valid. If the output routing setup is invalid, the module automatically forces both channels of the output pair to be muted. The status reporting will show “F” for force mute to indicate that this has occurred.

Certain rules determine which combinations are valid. An invalid combination will force the output to silence. The following table shows the rules that govern output p air comb inations.

The left-channel data type is shown in the left column, the right-channel data type is shown across the top. The resultant status reported for the output pair is shown in the body of the table.

Non-PCM PCM Tone Silence Loss

Non-PCM N or FFFFF PCM FPPPF Tone FPTPF Silence FPPSF Loss FFFFF

P = PCM, N = non-PCM, S = silence, T = test tone, F= forced mute (silence). To be recognized as valid non-PCM, both channels must:

• come from the same output pair

• have the left and right channels the correct way around

• not have the phase inverted

Failing to meet these conditions will cause the pair to be muted and the Status to show “F”.

5.8.4 Invert Phase

The Invert Phase check boxes enable you to invert the audio phase of an output channel. Each check box is vertically aligned with the output channel that it controls. Each channel can be inverted independently of the other channel in its pairing. This is a useful control for dealing with input audio discrepancies.

5.8.5 Control

Each radio button in the Control area is vertically aligned with the output channel that it controls, and for each channel is mutually exclusive. This means that each output channel has three modes of operation selectable.

• Tone: Output channel will output an internally generated test tone, dependant on routing rules.

• Silence: Output channel will output internally generated silence, dependant on routing rules.

• Use Routing: The shuffle matrix defines which process pair channel is routed to which output channel, dependant on routing rules.

5.9 Audio Control-Ch1 and Ch2

The Audio Control-Ch1 and Ch2 screens enable you to adjust the gain of the eight output pairs as configured on the Audio Shuffle-Ch1 and Ch2 screens.

The Audio Control-Ch2 screen is only applicable to the IQUDC31 and IQUDC33.

5.9.1 Gain

The Pair 1–8 sliders adjust the gain of the left and right channels of the output pairs. The adjustment range is -18 dB to 18 dB in 0.1 dB steps. The preset value is 0 dB.

5.9.2 Tone Frequency

The Tone Frequency slider enables you to select the tone frequency. The selecte d freq uency is also shown on the Audio Shuffle-Ch1 and Ch2 screen s, next to the Tone radio buttons. The adjustment range is 0.1 KHz to 10 KHz in 0.1 KHz steps. The preset value is 1 KHz.

All 16 output channels can independently turn tone on, but as there is only one test tone generator, it will be the same tone inserted on all channels.

Note:

5.9.3 Delay

The Delay controls enable you to set delay pa ir offsets and the audio delay relative to the video delay.

5.9.3.1 Tracking Audio Delay (where fitted*)

The module measures video delay input to output, and automatically compensates the audio via precision sample rate conversion. In this way, AV delay error is reduced to less than 2 ms. This is ideal for content where AV timing is critical e.g. lip sync (talking heads and musical events), and removes the need for manual adjust ment. However, user adjustable audio delay (global and pairwise) is still additionally available, to compensate for up/down stream audio timing errors.

*Tracking Audio Delay is not available in modules which were upgr aded to V5.2.7 or above after installation. Only new builds of modules at version 5.2.7 and above will have tracking audio delay.

5.9.3.2 Global Delay

The Global Delay control shows the total video and audio delay for the current video conversion. The preset value for audio delay is the same as total vid eo delay, in order that the two should be co-timed.

• Audio: Adjusts the audio delay relative to the video delay. The slider controls all eight audio output pairs as a bulk gr oup. The adjustment ra nge is -40 ms to 2 00 ms in 1 ms steps. The preset value is 0 ms.

This is actually an offset to the total video delay. The preset value of 0 ms means that audio delay matches video. Moving the slider to -10 ms, means all eight output channels will be 10 ms earlier than the video at the output.

The total global audio delay is displayed in the Total box: total global audio delay = (total video delay + global audio delay).

• Video: The Total box shows the current total video delay.

Global delay is applied to all channels. Individual channel delays are added/subtracted from this delay.

5.9.3.3 Global Delay Pair Offsets

In addition to the Global Delay controls, eight separate controls enable you to adjust each audio output pair individually. Each slider applies an additional delay to the pair, which is offset from the audio global delay.

• Pair 1–8: Adjusts the audio delay offset for each of the eight audio output pairs. The adjustment range is -40 ms to 200 ms in 1 ms steps. The preset value is 0 ms.

The total global audio delay pair offset is displayed in the Total box: total global audio delay pair offset = (total video delay + global audio delay + pair offset).

5.10 Audio I/O AES

The Audio I/O AES screen enables you to configure up to eight external AES connections.

5.10.1 AES 1–8

Each AES connector can be set to be either an input or an output. If set as an input, the connectors are hard-wired to the eight AES input pairs (shown in the Input Pairs – Source list on the Audio-Routing Ch1 screen). If set as an output, these controls select which source is routed to the AES connector.

For each AES pair, the following list of sources is available:

• Use as Input: Sets AES connector to be an input.

• Ch 1 Pair 1: Output Pair 1 as routed on Audio Shuffle-Ch1 Routing screen.

• Ch 1 Pair 2: Output Pair 2 as routed on Audio Shuffle-Ch1 Routing screen.

• Ch 1 Pair 3: Output Pair 3 as routed on Audio Shuffle-Ch1 Routing screen.

• Ch 1 Pair 4: Output Pair 4 as routed on Audio Shuffle-Ch1 Routing screen.

• Ch 1 Pair 6: Output Pair 6 as routed on Audio Shuffle-Ch1 Routing screen.

• Ch 1 Pair 7: Output Pair 7 as routed on Audio Shuffle-Ch1 Routing screen.

• Ch 1 Pair 8: Output Pair 8 as routed on Audio Shuffle-Ch1 Routing screen.

• Ch 2 Pair 1: Output Pair 1 as routed on Audio Shuffle-Ch2 Routing screen.

• Ch 2 Pair 2: Output Pair 2 as routed on Audio Shuffle-Ch2 Routing screen.

5.11 Genlock

The Genlock screen provides controls for locking the output video clock to the genlock source (input or reference) regardless of the video standard. If the genlock source and the video output are the same frame rate, for example, 50 Hz or 59.94 Hz, Genlock locks the output to the vertical phase of the genlock source, giving consistent and repeatable delay.

Lock to input wherever possible. Only lock to an external reference if necessary.

When attempting to pass non-PCM audio, ensure that Genlock is enabled. If using an external reference, it must be clock-locked to the input video.

If Genlock is set to Free Run, non-PCM audio will always be corrupt.

The Source Ch2 and Timing Ch2 controls are only applicable to the IQUDC31 and IQUDC33.

5.11.1 Source Ch 1 and Ch 2

One genlock circuit applies to channel 1 and channel 2 output video signals. The Source menu enables you to select options for a genlock source.

• Module Reference: Locks the output video to the incoming rear-panel reference.

• Chassis Reference A: Locks the output video to incoming chassis reference A.

• Chassis Reference B: Locks the output video to incoming chassis reference B.

• Ch1 input: Locks the output video to the channel 1 input.

• Ch2 input: Locks the output video to the channel 2 input.

• Free Run: Locks the output video to an internal reference clock.

For HD video standards, the supported input timecode format is ATC. This means that timecode data formatted as LTC, VITC, or both will be detected at the input; however, only one format can be selected.

• LTC: Select ATC LTC only if detected when video input is HD.

• VTIC: Select ATC VITC only if detected when video input is HD.

If the selected format is not detected at the input, no timecode processing will be available.

IQUDC30/IQUDC31/IQUDC32/IQUDC33 Operation Using the RollCall Control Panel

Note:

5.12.1.2 Source (SD)

For SD video standards, the supported input timecode formats are VITC and ATC. As with HD, A TC can mean that timecode data formatted as LTC, VITC, or both will be detected at the input; however, only one format can be selected.

• VITC: Select VITC only if detected when video input is SD.

• ATC LTC: Select ATC LTC only if detected when video input is SD.

• ATC VTIC: Select ATC VITC only if detected when video input is SD.

If the selected format is not detected at the input, no timecode processing will be available.

5.12.1.3 Status

The St atus box reports which type of embedded timecode is detected within the video inp ut to this processing channel. If no valid timecode is detected, “None” is displayed.

5.12.2 Processing

The processing controls enable you to select a mode of operation for timecode processing.

5.12.2.1 Mode

Two modes are available for timecode processing.

• Follow Input: The input timecode is read every frame and the actual time elapsed since timecode 00:00:00:00 is calculated. This elapsed time is then converted into an output timecode that matches the output video frame, and inserted into the output.

There is an additional and complicated process to compensate for clock offset between in and out, which will generate repeated or skipped timecodes as necessary, just as happens when synchronizing at the same standard. If the output is clock-locked to the input, this process has no effect.

• Generate: The unit generates the output timecode internally to match the output video standard. You can specify a start time in the Timecode Entry box. See see section 5.12.2.3 below.

5.12.2.2 On Timecode Loss

On Timecode Loss defines how the embedded output timecode should behave if input timecode cannot be detected.

• Freeze: On timecode loss, the output timecode will freeze at the last valid detected input value, until the valid input returns.

• Free Run: On timecode loss, the output timecode will switch to free-run and generate its own timecode starting from the last valid detected input value, until the valid input returns.

In Follow Input mode, only the selected source type of ANC packet is inserted into the output video. Therefore, the action on timecode loss is only applicable to the selected ATC type.

Note:

5.12.2.3 Generator

When timecode Generate mode is selected, the controls enable you to enter a specified starting timecode of the free-running internal timecode generator.

When Generate mode is selected, both ATC LTC and ATC VITC are embedded in the output.

• Timecode Entry: In this field you can enter a value to specify when the internally generated timecode starts. Once set, the internally generated timecode will start when you select the Timecode Load button. To enter a value:

In the Timecode Entry field, enter the required value and click S to set. To return to the preset value, click P.

• Timecode Load: Manually triggers the internally generated timecode, starting at the time specified in the Timecode Entry field.

• 30FPS: Output timecode always follows the correct count sequence for the output standard, except when following an input timecode that does not repr esent actual time (except if the input is flagged as 59 non-drop).

Drop Frame operates as follows:

• When converting timecode from 29/59 Hz to 29/59 Hz standards, the output

• When using the internal timecode generator with a 29 /59 Hz output st and ard, the

• When converting 23 Hz inputs to anything, follow input will give a broken

5.12.3 Embedding

The Embedding controls enable you to enable/disable embed ding of VITC in SD output video, and to choose the line on which it is embedded for both 525 and 625 outputs.

• VITC Enable: Enables the embedding of VITC in the SD output.

Note: This control only enables the embedding of VITC. In order for VITC to be present in the output SD video, a valid timecode must be detected at the input whe n in Follow Input mode, or when Generate mode is selected.

• Output Line (525): Selects the output line on which VITC is p laced when the cha nnel output is 525. The range is from line 11 to line 17 in one-line steps. The default is line

14.

• Output Line (625): Selects the output line on which VITC is p laced when the cha nnel output is 625. The range is from line 7 to line 20 in one-line steps. The default is line

timecode sequence.

Note: The line number stated is the first of the two lines used to embed VITC. The second line will always be the line selected + 2. For example, the default line for 525 is 14. Therefore VITC will be embedded on lines 14 and 16.

Note:

5.13 Metadata-Ch1 and Ch2

The Metadata-Ch1 and Ch2 scre ens enable you to control a set of closed captions and teletext subtitle information.

The Metadata-Ch2 screen is only applicable to the IQUDC31 and IQUDC33.

5.13.1 Closed Captions

Closed Captions covers CEA-608 and CEA-708 specified captioning. Although these specifications support captioning in multiple video standards, CEA-608 is only supported in 525 input or output as a line 21 signal. CEA-708 is only supported in 59 Hz HD video standards as a VANC packet with a Caption Distribution Packet (CDP) payload.

Closed Caption pass-through is possible if a valid input closed caption is pres en t an d inp u t and output video standards are the same.

Closed Caption transcoding is supported from CEA-608 to CEA-708 by taking the decoded bytes from the line 21 signal and inserting them into the compatibility byte within the CDP. Transcoding from CEA-708 to CEA-608 is possible if the CDP contains compatibility bytes, which are extracted and encoded as an output line 21 signal.

Closed captions are automatically detected in the input video, and the detected format shown in the Status window. For closed captions to be embedded in the output video, they must be enabled. User control for on which line to embed CEA-708 is provided, but CEA-608 is always fixed at line 21.

IQUDC30/IQUDC31/IQUDC32/IQUDC33 Operation Using the RollCall Control Panel

5.13.1.1 CEA608/708

• CEA-608/708 Output Enable: Enables embedding of CEA-608 captioning as a line 21 signal in 525 output video, and CEA-708 captioning as a n embedded VANC packet in 59 Hz HD output video.

Note: The Output Enable controls only enable embedding of output closed captioning. For closed captioning to be present in the output video, valid input closed captioning must be detected, and you must select the correct output standard to support pass-through or transcoding.

• Output Line: Selects the output line on which to insert CEA-708 VANC packets. The range is from line 8 to line 20 in one-line steps. The default is line 10.

• CEA-708 Output Line Status: Shows the output line number on which CEA-708 VANC packets are inserted. If no line number is selected, “OFF” is displayed.

5.13.1.2 Status

The Status box shows if either CEA-608 or CEA-708 captions are detected on the input.

5.13.2 Multi-line WST

The unit can pass World System Teletext (WST) for SD and RDD-08 or SMPTE 2031 teletext for HD. You can enable or disable teletext output and specify the input and output lines used.

Teletext covers World System Teletext (WST) subtitles, SMPTE RDD-08 and SMPTE 2031. For WST and RDD-08, only subtitle information is supported or processed. SMPTE 2031 VANC packets may be teletext subtitles, non-subtitles, or inverted teletext.

WST is only supported in 625 input or output encoded signals. RDD-08 is only supported in 50 Hz HD video standards as a VANC packet with a Subtitling Distribution Packet (SDP) payload. Teletext subtitle transcoding is supported from WST to RDD-08 by taking the

IQUDC30/IQUDC31/IQUDC32/IQUDC33 Operation Using the RollCall Control Panel

decoded bytes from the WST signal and inserting them into the payload within the SDP (see below). Transcoding from RDD-08 to WST is only possible if the SDP contains valid subtitles, which are extracted and encoded as an output WST signal.

Teletext pass-through

Teletext pass-through is possible if a valid input teletext subtitle is present and input and output video standards are the same. For SD video that uses a large number of WST VBI (where the VBI may have multiple lines of WST and 2 Timecode lines) the unit can encode/decode/transcode up to 15 lines of WST. In up and down conversion applications, this would use up to 3 RDD-08 (OP47) packets. RDD08 OP47 allows for 15 lines of WST to be encoded. SMPTE2031 allows only 5 lines of WST to be encoded,

625 Input - 625 Output

Y o u can select which input lines of WST a re encoded on the output. For the line s selected the status of WST being detected on that line is reported back.

The unit allows for up to 15 lines of WST to be selected on the input. If valid WST is detected on the selected lines, they will be placed on the same lines on the output. The status for each line will be reported back.

It is also possible to remap one WST origin line. In this case, select Allow WST remap. If valid WST is detected on the line selected by “WST origin line” it will be put on the line selected by the user control “WST output line”.

IQUDC30/IQUDC31/IQUDC32/IQUDC33 Operation Using the RollCall Control Panel

Note:

625 Input - HD Output

In applications where the video is upconverted, you can select which lines of WST are encoded.

1. If RDD08 (OP47) conversion is selected, then up to 15 lines can be encoded in the RDD-08 packet. A maximum of 3 packets are allowe d on the output, each with individual line number controls. The number of output RDD-08 packets on the output is decided by the number of valid WST lines decoded on the input. The first five WST lines are encoded in the first RDD-08 packet, th e next 5 in the seco nd RDD-08 p acket and so on.

2. If SMPTE2031 conversion is selected, then the first 5 lines selected on the input are encoded in the 2031 packet. Each single WST line corresponds to one SMPTE2031 packet on the output. All packets will be placed on the same line selected by the user control (Output Line All PKTs). The Data Unit ID can be set to Teletext Subtitle, Teletext Non-Subtitle or Inverted Teletext.

HD Input - HD Output

You can select which input HD WST packet is to be decoded - RDD-08 or SMPTE2031. Cross-conversion between the packet types is allowed. The option to select individual WST lines contained in the input packets is still available using the WST origin and status menu items. This is because both the SMPTE2031 and RDD-08 packet contain within them the original source SD line number information. The input line selection refers to this line number and not the ANC packet position line number.

HD Input - 625 Output

You can select which input HD WST packet is to be decoded - RDD-08 or SMPTE2031 . You can specify which lines of WST to encode on the output using the WST origin and menu item. The WST lines will be encoded on the line number information encoded within the input HD packet, unless “Allow WST rema p” is selected in which case you can change the line number for one WST line on the output (similar to the SD to SD case described previously).

Only one WST origin line may be remapped.

5.13.3 SMPTE 2020 Output

SMPTE 2020 Output: Selects the output line on which to insert a SMPTE 2020 VANC packet if the output is enabled. The range is from line 8 to line 20 in one-line steps. Preset is line 10.

It is possible to set a forced association in the SMPTE 2020 metadata which sets the Secondary Data ID (SDID) values used to identify the VANC packets to 45/02 (pair 1).

To use this control, enable “SDID Pair 1 Forced Assoc” from the Dolby menu under the sub-menu SMPTE 2020 Output. When enabled, the outgoing 2020 data will be labelled 45/02 (pair 1).

5.14 GPIO

The GPIO screen enables you to configure General Purpose Interface Input/Output functi ons. If a rear panel with GPIO screw terminal connections is fitted, the controls on this screen will

be active. The screw terminal connector provides two GPIOs that can be configured as either an input or an output.

5.14.1 GPIO 1 and 2

• Unused: GPI is inactive.

• Input: Configures GPI as an input.

• Output: Configures GPI as an output.

5.14.2 GPI 1 and 2 (Input)

When the GPI is configured as an input, a low to high transition will trigger the GPI input function. Each of the following options is initial-edge triggered. Once this has ta ken place, the option remains selected until some other process is initiated.

• Freeze Ch1: The output picture will be frozen and the Freeze check box on the Output screen selected.

• Black Ch1: The output picture will be black and the Test Patterns – Black radio button on the Output screen selected.

• Pattern Ch1: The output picture will be a ramp and the Test Patterns – Ramp radio button on the Output screen selected.

• User Memory 1 to 16: Any saved user memories will appear in the GPI Input list. The default memory name is “User Memory N”, where N is the memory number from 1 to

16. The name that appears here is the same as that on the Memories screen. Triggering

this input will perform a memory recall exactly as it would on the Memories screen.

5.15 Ancillary Bridge-Ch1,Ch2

The Ancillary Bridge allows detection of packet based ancillary data and re-insertion on the output (unaltered). This should not be used for packet types alr eady processed (708, RDD08, SMPTE2016, SMPTE2031, ATC) by the ancillary data block. The exception is in processing SD-ATC, where you should use the bridge.

You can select the ANC packet type to be transferred and the line number at the output on which the transferred packet is to appear, then the bridge operates automatically when enabled.

5.15.1 Operation

1. Select the ANC packet type to be transferred using the DID and SDID Input Controls.

2. Select the output line using the Output Control (default is 11).

3. Check the Enable box in Output Control (default is enabled).

5.15.2 Warnings

• The ANC bridge can only transfer up to seven different ANC packet types.

• For each of the seven ANC types, only one packet can be handled at a time. When a packet has been read from the input, until its nominated output line occurs and the packet is read from the store, any other packets of th e same type are ignor ed. No line number is reported for a packet which has been ignored.

• No changes can be made to the ANC packets; they are forwarded exactly as received.

• There is no control to reset the stores. When not in use they should left reading DIDs which never occur such as 0 or 255 so that old packets aren't transmitted when the output line numbers are programmed.

• There is no check of remaining ancillary space at the start of a packet transmit. ANC packet length is from 4 to 259 words but the packet lengths are not reported to the CPU. Errant packets are corrupted by the syncs they try to overwrite.

IQUDC30/IQUDC31/IQUDC32/IQUDC33 Operation Using the RollCall Control Panel

5.15.3 Special features

• If more than one of the stores is set to transmit in the same space (HANC or V ANC) of the same line, the packets will be transmitted in ascending order of store number.

• More than one store can be set to pass the same type of packet. The lowest numbered empty store is used. Different input fields and output line numbers can be used.

• The line number on which an input packet occurs and whether it was in HANC or VANC is reported each store. These registers are cleared after they are read so subsequent reads will say 0 - valid line numbers are from 1. This is how to tell whether the nominated ANC packets are occurring or not (a valid output line number must be set since new packets aren't reported whilst a store is full).

• If the DID for a store is set to 128 or greater, the SDID register is ignored and all packets with that DID can be passed through that store. (These packets are type 1 and the place of the SDID is taken by a data block number.)

• A range of up to 32 SDIDs can be matched for a gi ven DID by setting the SDID range bits for a store. To pass a single SDID, set the range to 0. For Dolby metadata (SMPTE 2020-1) the SDIDs can be from 1 to 9 so the SDID would be 1 and the range 8.

To use the logo inserter, first upload logos onto the module using the logo uploader application (see section 2.2). Then, access the logo insertion controls via the Output Co ntrol (see section 5.3.10).

Logos of size up to 400 pixels by ¼ picture height (maximum 480 lines) can be displayed. The logo sequence capacity is 10,000,000 pixels (approx 44s for 150x50 @ 60Hz), and the module can store up to 64 logos.

When using the logo insertion feature with input and output signals of the same frame rate and format, ensure that Sync Mode (see section 5.6.1) is enabled to preserve output quality.

2.2 Logo Uploader

To upload logos onto the module, run the logo upload application on your PC. A dialog box will appear as shown below:

Enter the IP address of your IQ frame and choose the module you wish to load the logo into Then browse to the folder containing your required logos, and click “Install Logo”. This will upload the logo to your unit.

This stage can take up to a minute depending on the length of the logo. Short or static logos will upload in a few seconds.

2.3 Filename convention

Logos must be packaged in a directory with the same n ame as the lo go . Logo files must take the form <logo_name><specifier>.<extension> where <logo_name> equals the directory's name.

A <specifier> of the form _<standard> indicates that this logo is intended for this specific standard. If no _<standard> specifier is included, then this logo is the default for any standards which do not have a standard-specific logo.

Possible values for <standard> are: 525i, 625i, 720p, 1080p and 1080i. A <specifier> of the form _<index> indicates that this file is part of a multi-file sequence for an

animated logo. Any non-negative decimal value may be used for <index>. The files in a sequence are sorted in increasing order of their respective <index>es by numerical value. Leading zeros do not affect the sort order, and it is not required that the <index> values are contiguous, however all images in a multi-file sequence must have the same width and height.

If both _<standard> and _<index> specifiers are used, then they should be written as _<standard>_<index>, not _<index>_<standard>.

The <extension> is not used as the logo option will auto-detect the image format. Examples of valid logo filenames are:

Logo name Type of logo

C:\logos\brandlogos\brandlogo.jpg Single logo jpeg file C:\logos\brandlogos\brandlogo_625i.png

C:\logos\brandlogos\brandlogo_1080i.png C:\logos\brandlogos\brandlogo_001.tiff

C:\logos\brandlogos\brandlogo_002.tiff

....

C:\logos\brandlogos\brandlogo_064.tiff

Two versions of the logo targeting different output sta ndards

Animated logo of sequence length 64

2.4 Displaying logos

You can access the logo insertion controls via th e Outp ut Co ntrol (see section 5.3.10) . Se lect the logo from the list and adjust its position and transparency as required.

The logo files should contain a key (there is no “self key” option), but if no key is found then the entire logo image will be displayed, i.e. a rectangle cut-out of the logo image size.

RGB graphics formats are automatically converted to SD and HD colo r spaces and lev els . YUV graphics will be presented as is for both HD and SD. The YUV range is assumed to be 16 (black) to 235 (white). Other values are clipped. Key channel levels for all g raphics formats are 0 (off) to 255 (100% key).

In linear mode “Transp arency” controls both key gain and logo gain; in pre-shaped mode only key gain is controlled.
