The XD1 modules have many ANC functions, in addition to the AFD capabilities of the FS1. In XD1
modules, if the incoming signal contains AFD, the module can replace the existing AFD code with
updated ARC information. XD1 modules also make it possible for you to create custom AFD rules for
non-standard aspect ratio changes.
ARC Control (XD1 Versions Only)
You can set the output in a particular conversion mode by selecting either a standard ARC setting, or
one of your own customized preset ARC settings, with an automatic ARC that follows the ARC code
embedded in the video.
Depending on the current input/output video standard setting, the XD1 operates in one of four modes:
upconversion, crossconversion, downconversion, or SD-ARC.
Mode
The current ARC mode is shown in the
ARC Mode Fb
parameter in the
Status
menu.
When input video standards or output video standards change, the module may switch to a different
conversion mode, and the required ARC setting may be different. For this reason, the XD1 options are
set according to the conversion mode, and you can pre-configure the settings for each mode. When
mode switching happens, settings will always take effect immediately.

Note
: In some regions, SD-SDI normal analog blanking is not part of the 4:3 active video area, causing
the 4:3 image to have an active video length of 702 (PAL/625) or 704 (NTSC/525) instead of 720. In these
situations, the ARC will need adjustments. Use the
SD Width
parameter (
Conversion and Advanced
Video Processing x > ARC Control
) to set the module to either
720
(default) or
702(PAL)/704(NTSC)
.
