Converting HDV to SD Component
By using the scaling feature of the VC-300HD/VC-200HD, HDV can be down-converted to SD
size as well as converted to SD component. In this case, after connecting using the procedure
on the previous page, select “SD” in Step 5.
* When converting to PAL, select "576/50i" in step 6. For NTSC, select “480i/60.”
Converting DV to HD Component
Perform the settings on the previous page, and connect the HD video device to the
COMPONENT OUTPUT connector. In this case, select “1080i” or “720p” in Step 5.
* When changing the output video frame rate, please select an appropriate value in step 6.
* Refer to the user’s manual that came with your HD video equipment to find out which video
formats it supports.
* When “SD” is used in Step 5, SD component is output. When converting to PAL, select "576/
50i" in step 6. For NTSC, select “480i/60.”
* With audio that is 32 kHz, 12 bit, and 4-channel, which is being input to this unit as DV input,
only two channels of audio can be used. To select the channels to use in conversion, set
"170: DV In Audio Ch" (p. 33) from the Menu (p. 30).
When using all sound from the four channels in conversion, input the analog sound output of
the DV device to the AUDIO INPUT connectors, and select "AUDIO IN" with "150: Audio
Source" (p. 32) in the Menu (p. 30). Because a time lag occurs between the video and
audio, adjust the timing with "240: AudioDelay Time" from the Menu (p. 30).
* The same DV recording is output from CH1/CH2 and CH3/CH4 of the AUDIO OUTPUT
connectors. The embedded audio output from the HD-SDI OUT connector is output to the
channel selected with "450: SDI OUT Audio Ch" (p. 37) from the Menu (p. 30).
