De-Interlacing Pixel-Based

The XVC-1001-DC can detect the presence of film-based content in 
video, and merge fields to recreate the original image sequence prior 
to downscaling. When pixel-based images (logo, credits, etc.) exist over 
film-based content in the interlaced video, the XVC-1001-DC uses specific 
de-interlacing algorithms to yield the best results.

The 

De-Interlacing Pixel Based

 function sets the XVC-1001-DC to 

detect the presence of pixel-based content over film-based content. 
Select from:

• On
• Off
  

Background Fill Mode

The area of the output image not covered by the downscaled image can 
be filled in two ways. Select from

• Black
• Gray
