3 Video Output Mode
The parameter sets the final video output of the Video Processor to normal
video or the test pattern generator. Alarms occur if conflicting video formats are
selected.
Normal (default)
Test Pattern
Normal video output from the processors.
The output of the test pattern generator.
Background Fill
This parameter selects the background source used to fill any part of the
processor output raster not filled with video from the main input video. For the
Video Processor 1 menu, the second selection is Video 2. For the Video Processor
2 menu, the second selection is Video 1. Using this feature, you can key Video 2
into Video 1 or vice versa

Selects Vid1 or Vid2 as the background fill video.
Selects matte as the background fill video.
Loss of Input

The Black selection (default) cuts the video to black. The Freeze selection freezes
video on the last available good frame.
5 Loss of Input
Black (default)
Freeze
Switches to black if input video is lost.
Freezes on the last available good video frame if input is lost.
Upconvert and Downconvert
These parameter select the type of Upconversion the Video Processor performs
on the selected SD source input. They are in effect only when the input is SD
(525i or 625i) and the selected output format is HD (720p, 1080i, or 1080p), or
when the input is HD (720p, 1080i, or 1080p) and the output is 2K (2048 x 1080).
When upconverting to 2K, the selections do not precisely describe the resulting
picture. For example, 4x3 pillar is not precisely 4x3, and 14x9 is not precisely 14x9.
However, picture scaling is such that the visual effect closely resembles an SD-to-
HD upconvert.
