Format Screen
The Format Screen shows the video format currently in use by the KONA IP
framebuffer (called the Primary Format) and allows you to change it. All
throughout the Control Panel, choices are always presented based on what
KONA IP can do with the signals available and the inputs/outputs selected.
IMPORTANT: Do not confuse this Format function screen conversion, which uses AJA
hardware and operates on either Mac or PC, with the separate Conversion
function screen, which uses QuickTime for conversion and is only available on
Mac.
Primary (Frame Buffer) Format
Format
This pull-down menu shows the currently selected format. When a change is
made via the Video Format pull-down or by clicking an icon and selecting a new
format via a contextual menu, the block diagram will change to reflect the new
format.
NOTE: The AJA Control Panel software uses the abbreviation “sf” instead of “PsF” when
referring to “progressive segmented frame” formats.
Pixel Format
Use this pulldown menu to choose: YUV-10, YUV-8, RGB-10, or ARGB-8 or RGB-12.
RGB Range
The RGB Range pulldown menu allows you to select either Full-range (0-1023) or
SMPTE range (typically 64-940) for RGB color output.
