Window Dub Requirements
Existing Video Signal
SYNC HD can only insert a
timecode window into an existing SD video signal.
This means that at least one video source signal
(from a VTR, nonlinear editing system, or other
video device) must be present at one of the
SYNC HD video input connectors (Video In or
Video Ref). When generating a window dub, the
VITC Timing Rule applies (see “VITC Timing
Rule” on page 57.
SYNC HD Output
The signal from the SYNC HD
Video Out connector must be routed to a video
destination such as another VTR or nonlinear edit-
ing system.

pearance settings from the corresponding pop-
up menu: Vertical Position, Horizontal Position,

means it may not be visible on some video
monitors.
The “Extreme” horizontal positions are out-
side the standard “safe title” area, which
means they may not be visible on some video
monitors.
Default window dub settings are listed in
“Restoring Factory Settings” on page 53.
