• Minimum Latency Frames Control

When Framesync is enabled, specifies the smallest amount of latency

 

 

 

 

allowed by the frame sync (latency measurement in output video frames).

 

 

 

 

The frame sync will not output a frame unless the specified number of

 

 

 

 

frames are captured in the buffer. The operational latency of the frame

 

 

 

 

sync is always between the specified minimum latency and

 

 

 

 

minimum latency plus one frame (not one field).

 

 

 

 

(Maximum range is 0 to 13.)

 

 

 

 

Note: Due to card memory limits, the maximum available Minimum

 

 

 

 

Latency Frames is related to the output video format selected.

 

 

 

 

For example, with a 1080i59.94 output, the maximum allowed

 

 

 

 

setting is 5. For a 1080i film (23.98) output, the maximum allowed

 

 

 

 

setting is 3. Conversely, greater maximum settings are allowed for

 

 

 

 

SD formats such as 525i59.94, where the practical maximum limit

 

 

 

 

is 13.

 

 

 

 

When using this control, be sure to check the Framesync Status

 

 

 

 

display as follows:

 

 

 

 

• Latency frames selection within limits.

 

 

 

 

• Latency frames selection exceeds limits.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Video Delay Display

Displays the current input-to-output video delay (in msec units) as well as

 

 

 

 

in terms of Frames/fractional frame (in number of lines).

 

 

 

 

 

 

• Framesync Status Display

Displays the current framesync status as follows:

 

 

 

 

• Framesync status OK.

 

 

 

 

• Framesync Enable set to Off.

 

 

 

 

• Improper or missing framesync reference.

 

 

 

 

• Latency frames selection exceeds limits.

 

 

 

 

Note: See Minimum Latency Frames Control (p. 3-23) for more

 

 

 

 

information about this message.

 

 

 

 

 

 

• Loss of Input Signal Selection

In the event of input video Loss of Signal (LOS), determines action to be

 

 

 

 

taken as follows:

 

 

 

 

Disable Outputs: Disable all outputs.

 

 

 

 

Freeze Last Frame: Freeze image to last good frame (last frame

 

 

 

 

having valid SAV and EAV codes).

 

 

 

 

Freeze to Color: Freeze image to a color raster (as selected using

 

 

 

 

Framesync LOS Freeze Color control).

 

 

 

 

Note: If this card is used to also pass embedded audio, note that

 

 

 

 

audio noise will occur upon loss of input with “Freeze Last

 

 

 

 

Frame” selected.
