Output Video Timing - Line Sync and Offset
8.1 Line Synchronizer and Offset from Reference
Each switched video output can be independently line-synchronized and, if required, delayed
from the reference timing. The licensed options VG10-CSx are required for this feature. The
functions licensed are:
•
Line Synchronizing
- synchronizes the router output to the video reference
according to the routed input’s switching video standard.
•
Delay
- if required, delay can be added into each router output to offset the output
signal timing from the reference signal timing.
These two functions are both implemented within the unit using video storage buffering on a
per router output
basis. They both share the video buffer storage on each output.
8.1.1 Buffer Storage Capacity
The buffer storage capability varies according to video standard. Table 50 lists the storage
capability for the video buffer block for each supported video standard.
The amount of storage used for line-synchronizing depends on the relative timing relationship
between each router input signal and the video reference. The remaining buffer storage
capacity for each output can be used to offset (i.e. delay) each router output from the video
reference.
If all router video input signal timings are co-timed with reference to ±½ line, then a router
output can then typically be delayed by up to a further 14 lines regardless of standard.
