DVI and VGA: none available - all input formats assumed to be square pixel, hence aspect ratio can be
calculated from the resolution (except 576i, 480i, 576p, 480p if accepted, which are all 4:3)
SD/HD/3G-SDI: User choice of AFD packets (as SMPTE 2016) or legacy support for Video Index
(SMPTE RP186)
CVBS/S-Video/YCbCr: WSS or CGMS-A packets, according to format. PAL/576i uses WSS (BT.1119-
2); NTSC/480i,720p,1080i use CGMS-A (CEA-805/IEC 61880/EIAJ CPR-1204/etc)
Trim Width % and Trim Height %
The video image can be scaled independently in the horizontal and vertical direction. Black bars are
added on top and bottom of the image when a shrink is performed.
Pan Left/Right % and Tilt Up/Down %
The zoomed image can be paned in horizontal and vertical direction with these controls.
Reset Trim Position
Resets all trim and pan settings to zero percent.

Filters
A submenu containing selection options for many image clean-up filters including:
CCS
Cross Chrominance Suppression filter (reduction of chroma-crawl) – SD only
CUE
Chroma Up sampling Error correction filter
ICP
Interlace Chroma Problem filter, reduces interlace errors on diagonals & curves
3D Y/C
Filter to reduce luminance to chrominance cross talk of composite video signals which
appears as a coarse rainbow pattern or random colors in regions of fine details.
Luma/Chroma delay
Adjustable delay between chroma and luma of +/- 3 pixels.
Luma peaking gain
Luma transient steepening.
CTI gain
Chroma transient steepening.
CTI coring level
Threshold to CTI to avoid noise being amplified
TNR
Temporal Noise Reduction (removes "electronic" noise found on broadcasts, film
material)
TNR & MNR
Selects which noise reduction filters are applied – TNR only, TNR+MNR, or Auto for
automatic image content and noise based selection of filters.
MPEG NR Level
Adjusts the level of MNR (MPEG Noise Reduction) for SD signals. Not applicable to
HD formats – use TNR for removal of all types of noise from HD formats.
Movie Mode
Movie Mode is set to Auto by default. SP-14 detects film content converted to video
and applies the inverse telecine process. In the unlikely event that this automatic
detection fails the unit can be forced to treat the incoming signal as either video or
film. When set to video motion adaptive de-interlacing is applied. This setting will
eliminate all feathering that may appear in Auto setting, but image detail is reduced for
film originated content. The Film setting will apply an inverse telecine process no
matter of the content. This will give great detail for film originated content video. If the
content is video this setting shows unacceptable feathering. When such artefacts are
observed the Video or Auto setting is more appropriate.
