Option
Description
Show
Shows all picture break-up and instabilities.
Freeze
Freezes the latest frame – un-freezes as soon as the
source becomes stable again.
Blue (default)
Turns the window blue, to represent source loss.
Black
Turns the window black.
Remove
Removes the window, thus showing any background
(e.g. a Lock source). This is useful for MIX & PIP
scenarios on units with overlay abilities.
If you have a very unstable input, such as a video tape player with a poor (jumping)
output signal, you may wish to turn the setting to ‘Show’.
An interlaced input consists of two fields separated in time. Both fields are required
in order to make up the full resolution input image, but since they are sent one after
the other, a moving image will have “motion artifacts” if the two fields are simply
combined together. The most common artifact is a blurring at the point of maximum
movement within an image. Your unit provides some tools to minimize the effects of
de-interlacing of an image.
The following options are available for this menu item:
Mode
Function
Normal
The two interlaced fields are simply combined together.
This will often show artifacts on moving images, but can be
used when the input is known to be still.
Auto
Automatically selects Film 3:2 or Medium Range Motion
Compensation (M. Comp Med.) depending on whether Film
Mode is detected or not. For 1080i sources, a special de-
interlacing mode is selected to eliminate combing effects.
Film 3:2
Enables 3:2 pull down conversion of the incoming NTSC
video. (This option should not be used if the source is not
NTSC video).
M. Comp Low
M. Comp Med.
M. Comp High
Enables Pixel Adaptive Motion Compensation. Three levels
are available with ‘Low’ providing the least compensation
for Motion and ‘High’ providing the most compensation.
This menu item allows the user to specify whether the source has diagonal
interpolation applied to it when de-interlacing occurs. This reduces ‘jagged’ artifacts
on moving images, however is not suitable for noisy sources where the noise could
be mis-interpreted as a diagonal or sloping element of the picture.
