V.4 3G Level B Dual-Stream Signals (Added by VIDEO_3G)
Installing the VIDEO_3G option also adds support for analysing 3G Level B Dual-stream video
delivered through SDI IN1, while adding both the VIDEO_3G option and the GEN_2 option
allows the output of 3G Level B Dual-stream video through SDI OUT 1.
Note: SDI IN2 and SDI
OUT 2 cannot be used for these operations.
Analysing 3G Level B Dual-Stream Video
The difference between analysing 3G Level B dual-stream video and analysing SD video lies in
way two separate data streams are transmitted over the same cable in the 3G case.
The OTR handles the two data streams delivered to the IN1 BNC by making them available as
two separate SDI Inputs: SDI Input 1 and SDI Input 3.
There is no other difference in the procedure.
Generating 3G Level B Dual-Stream Video
The generation of 3G Level B Dual-Stream video requires dual test signal generators and hence
requires the GEN_2 option to be installed.
With the second generator installed, Dual-stream video may be generated following the steps for
dual-generator operation given in Section Q.12. The only special feature to its generation is that
the selection of a 3G Level B Dual-stream format as the output video standard means that the
two output streams are both output to SDI OUT 1.
V.5 Digital Cinema Support
Video for Digital Cinema may be delivered either as a 3G signal or as HD Dual-link.
Support for Digital Cinema handled as a 3G signal is given by adding VIDEO_3G. Support for
Digital Cinema handled as HD Dual-Link is given by adding the VIDEO_DL option.
Further information is given in the appropriate sections above.
