■The TDR6 decoder processes VBI data in its standard configuration.
To configure the encoder and decoder for DVB 4:2:2 Expanded Windows operation, follow these steps:
Encoder
1.Ensure that all other VBI schemes are disabled.
2.Ensure that VBI data is included in the selected service video input signal.
