The Time being displayed is the timecode being output on the video channel you are looking at.
Thus if you are looking at two screens to inspect SDI1 output and SDI2 output the time displays
may be offset from each other.
There may be an extra character to the right of the frames-units number. This is a field/frame
marker.
• In interlaced video formats, the top-left block appears in the first field, the bottom-right
block appears in the second field.
• In progressive video formats at frame rates above 30Hz, the same timecode is output for
each frame due to a limitation defined in SMPTE-12M . In these higher frame rates, the
top-left block appears in the first frame of the pair, the bottom-right block appears in the
second frame of the pair.
• In progressive video formats at frames rates at or below 30Hz, the field/frame marker is
not displayed, as a unique timecode exists for each frame.
