Introduction
Overview
The Selenio X100 is an intelligent dual-channel frame synchronizer and converter. The X100
can operate in a dual- channel mode, or with a single input to two processed outputs, or in
a single-channel linear frame rate converter mode (when the X100OPT-SK-SC software
license key is installed).
The Selenio X100 provides two channels of video synchronization and delay, video up-,
down-, and cross-, aspect ratio conversion, basic frame rate conversion, optional linear
frame rate conversion (single channel), dual video processing amplifiers with color correction
and clipping, and dual logo generator inserters.
Audio processing features include dual channel capacity (total of eight groups with 32 mono
channels of internal processing), audio embedding and de-embedding to and from
Horizontal Ancillary Data (HANC) in the Serial Digital Interface (SD-SDI), 16 AES input /
output ports and eight channels of analog audio input and output with audio
synchronization and delay, gain, invert, and summing. Optional audio processing includes
audio decode and encode, audio up and down mix, and perceptual loudness control.
Input/output signal interfaces on the X100 include those for optional dual analog video,
composite and analog video component, analog audio, SD-SDI video and ancillary data, SFP
for optical and other interfaces, AES unbalanced digital audio, time code, General Purpose
Interface (GPI), and control and monitoring over Ethernet 100BaseT IP. An HDMI output is
provided for monitoring purposes
The X100’s data wrangler feature has the capability to process many metadata types in the
Vertical Ancillary and Vertical Blanking Interval (VANC/VBI). This includes timecode insert/
extract/pass through, closed captioning and teletext subtitling transcoding, processing for
AFD Active Format Description, Video Index (VI), and Wide Screen Signaling (WSS) for aspect
ratio conversion. In addition, the data wrangler processes GPI trigger insertion and
extraction (using SCTE-104 or BT-1685) and pass through for ABC BrandNet, Australian Cue
Data) for automation of remote devices, ARIB audio ID (Japan), SMPTE 352 Payload
Identifier, Dolby Audio Metadata and up to ten user DID/SDID.
