The video format is changed on this screen.
For details on how to change the format, refer to
“Changing the format” (page 47).
In the case of the 1080/59.94p(i) or 1080/50p(i) format,
the P signal is output to the HDMI connector, and the
I signal is output to the SDI output and analog component
output connectors.

Down CONV. Mode

[Squeeze, SideCut, LetterBox]

The down-conversion mode is selected here.
Squeeze
This setting is used when the aspect ratio
of the monitor is to be set to 16:9.
If the monitor is set to the 4:3 aspect
ratio, the images will be squeezed in the
width direction and extended in the height
direction.
SideCut
This setting is used when the aspect ratio
of the monitor is to be set to 4:3.
With the vertical height serving as the
reference, the parts which extend beyond
this at the two sides are cropped changing
the view of the angle.
LetterBox
This setting is used when the aspect ratio
of the monitor is to be set to 4:3.
With the horizontal width serving as the
reference, black bands are added at the
top and bottom changing the view of the
angle.
When output is selected for the color bar, the mode is fixed
to Squeeze.

HDMI Color

[RGB-NOR, RGB-ENH, YCbCr422, YCbCr444]

Set here is the HDMI color output.
When an HDMI monitor is used, use “YCbCr422” under
normal circumstances.
In cases where, for instance, HDMI (RGB) signals are
converted and output to a DVI monitor, the settings
required will differ depending on the color gradation
supported by the monitor.
RGB-NOR The RGB output signals are output in the
16 to 235 range.
RGB-ENH The RGB output signals are output in the
0 to 255 range.
If the black parts of the images appear overexposed
when “RGB-NOR” has been selected, use the
“RGB-ENH” setting instead.
Conversely, if the images are displayed with a loss of
dark detail when “RGB-ENH” has been selected, use
the “RGB-NOR” setting instead.
If an HDMI Color setting which is not supported by
the monitor has been specified, the HDMI Color
setting may be changed automatically.
(The menu display will remain unchanged.)
Note

Component [YPbPr, RGB]

Either Y/Pb/Pr or RGB can be selected for the analog
component signals.
