The HFS-975 provides Up, down, cross and aspect ratio conversion with synchronization. Audio processing of the AES audio delay may require increased audio delay for proper lip sync. There are four channels of AES audio to accommodate the requirements for surround sound applications is one of the many features of the HFS-975. The ability to take legacy analog video signals into the digital domain using the highest quality conversions before up converting and compressing video signals is a natural for this professional frame sync. The HFS-975 will compensate for long cable runs up to 300ft, depending on signal output.

The HFS-975 provides conversion for almost any signal type for HDTV video. For the analog environment, it can time base correct any tape format, analog, SDI or HDTV to house master black. The HFS-975 can perform up-conversion for HD output, down-conversion for monitoring, and cross-conversion for programs that are recorded in other than the native format. The video-to-audio timing are adjustable to maintain lip sync. This makes the HFS-975 first choice the most demanding requirements. The integrity of Closed Captions are maintained.

The HFS-975 Multi-Format Converter and Frame Synchronizer is a standard and high-definition synchronizer and converter. It combines video and audio processing capabilities with the ability to up- convert, down-convert, and cross-convert from most input video formats to almost any output video format.

The HFS-975 is equally suited for analog, digital or hybrid facilities, and represents the ideal choice for the professional user, making the transition to digital television affordable. This single unit comes standard with composite analog, component video; Y/C, HD and SDI, as well as AES embed and de- embed. The HFS-975 multi converter synchronizer provides an ideal bridge between analog, digital and high definition systems with analog, digital and embedded audio.

Closed Captions are passed transparently from input to out, through all down, cross and aspect ratio conversion. The entire vertical interval is passed to the output without degradation.

A complement of SDI test signals are provided on the analog and digital outputs of the HFS-975. Audio test tones are selectable for embedding of AES on the SDI outputs.

Controlling and monitoring of the signals that are passing through the HFS-975 are displayed on a front panel VFD. Providing instant operator control from the local control panel which allows for easy manipulation of video and audio signals.

Operational modes for numerous applications are user-selected: The user has the choice of processing any input to any output, A to D, D to A, up, down or cross-conversion, and processing. Any input can be switched to all standard and high definition outputs.

Since analog video will be a requirement for awhile, the HFS-975 fulfills those requirements for all applications. Analog video CAV and Y/C are also supported. Firmware is easily updated as the requirements occurs. Ethernet is a future addition to the HFS-975.
