Input Menu

In Appendix A, refer to the “Input and Output Resolutions“ section on page 129 for additional details regarding resolutions.

Note

Selecting a format manually will automatically default the Input Type. In some cases, the Input Type cannot be changed due to the selected resolution.

•Input Type — sets the type of input connected to the PresentationPRO-II, such as RGB, SD, HD or Composite. Available choices change depending on the selected format. Selections include RGB, YPbPr, Composite/S-Video, SDI and HD SDI.

•Color Space — sets the input’s color space. Choices include SMPTE and RGB. Note that the system will automatically set the Color Space based on the selected

Format and Input Type.

•Sampling Mode — sets the sampling mode for the selected input, either 1:1 or oversample.

~When 1:1 Sampling is selected, the system provides pixel-for-pixel sampling, and generally better image quality.

~When Oversample is selected, the system performs multiple samples for every pixel, with a resulting “softer” image.

•Contrast — sets the input’s contrast. The adjustment range is from 75% to 125%.

•Brightness — sets the input’s brightness. The adjustment range is from 75% to 125%.

•Gamma — sets the input gamma, enabling you to match the gamma of the source. The adjustment range is from 1.0 to 3.0, in 0.1 increments.

•Input Sync Type — sets the type of sync used by the selected source. Choices include H/V, CSync (composite sync), SOG (sync on green) and Auto.

•Pulldown Compensation — (On/Off) This function is applicable only for standard video (component, s-video, composite) inputs. The default mode is off. The feature should be turned on to process video derived from film material.

•Sync Slice <mv> — This function selects the sync comparator threshold for RGsB (RGB with Sync on Green) or YPbPr analog component video sources. The value ranges from 20mV to 280mV and is adjustable in steps of 10mV. The default value is 160mV.

When PresentationPRO-II detects Macrovision® copy protection on incoming YPbPr NTSC/PAL video, the Sync Slice value is repositioned to 60mV to account for the reduced amplitude sync pulse.

Note

The default Sync Slice level has been optimized for virtually all sources that will be encountered and should rarely, if ever, require adjustment. However, the ability to adjust the Sync Slice level is provided to improve sync detection and synchronization in cases of extremely noisy RGsB or YPbPr video signals.

•Sharpness — sets the input’s sharpness. The adjustment range is from -10 (soft) to 10 (sharp).
