
If the input format is HD and the output format is SD, the X100 transcodes the TT
ancillary packets based on Free TV Australia OP47 standard from the HD input stream
to analog waveform based on the ITU-R BT.653-3 standard (system B only).
Timecode
The Selenio X100 support the following types of timecode:

LTC (SMPTE-12M-1)

D-VITC in SD formats (SMPTE-266M)

ATC in SD and HD formats (SMPTE-12M-2, formerly RP-188)

RP196 VITC in HANC

RP196 LTC in HANC
The Selenio X100 supports ancillary timecode insertion to video output, extraction from
video input, LTC timecode generation and extraction, and conversion between all of the
above supported timecode formats and frame rates.
To support timecode frame rate conversion, local timecode generators for the LTC and each
of the video processing channels ensure that the generated timecode is always in sequence
according to the selected output format. These timecode generators are set to a
pre-defined time or a time from a selected input time source using the jam sync control.
There are two different modes for setting the timecode: Copy Mode and Jam Sync Mode
(found at Data > Advanced Status and Control > Timecode > Jam Sync > Output x
Sync Mode ).
Copy Mode makes it possible to copy the timecode from a reference input time source and
apply to the output without alteration. This is particular useful for a post-production
environment where the timecode may not always increment at a per-frame basis. For
Copy
mode to work properly, ensure that the output timecode frame rate matches the frame rate
of the reference input time source.
With Jam Sync Mode , you can set the timecode of an output to a specific time when the
Immediate Jam Sync button is set to Yes. Or if preferred, you can set the timecode of a
particular output to a specific time, which occurs when the time of the selected time source
for that output matches the specific time. The timecode will then auto-increment according
to the video frame rate and other user specified settings, such as
Drop Frame Enable .
The Drop Frame Enable parameters are located at:

Data->Advanced Status and Control > Timecode > Output-> Ch 1 Timecode Drop
Frame

Data->Advanced Status and Control > Timecode > Output-> Ch 2 Timecode Drop
Frame

Data->Advanced Status and Control > Timecode > Output->LTC > LTC Drop Frame
To select Copy Mode for a particular output, set Data > Advanced Status and Control >
Timecode > Output > Output 1/Output 2/LTC Sync Mode to Copy Mode and then
select the reference timecode source from the corresponding Data > Advanced Status
and Control > Timecode > Output > Output 1/Output 2/LTC Time Source .
To select Jam Sync Mode for a particular output, set Data > Advanced Status and
Control > Timecode > Output > Output 1/Output 2/LTC Sync Mode to Jam Sync
Mode , and then follow the instructions specified in the following Jam Sync Mode section.
