Tabbed Screens
The Tabs delineate control screens with groups of controls for each type of task to
be performed.
The controls for the actual configuration parameters are specific to each Mini-
Converter type. When you Click on any of the tab buttons, the pane below
the tabs will change to match your tab selection. Any changes you make are
immediately applied and will be saved, overwriting previous settings.
Video Tab Screen
Click on the Video tab to view and make changes to the converter’s video
processing settings.
SD Aspect Convert
Determines the mode when converting from SD input video to an SD output
video format. There is no DIP switch equivalent for this control. The setting
is saved in nonvolatile memory in the module and used for all subsequent
operation:
• Off (default) - The input image is copied to the output with no scaling.
• Letterbox - The input frame is scaled vertically to a 16x9 letterboxed size
(anamorphic to letterbox conversion).
• H Crop - The input frame is scaled horizontally to 16x9, then center-cropped
(anamorphic to center crop conversion).
• Pillarbox - The input frame is scaled horizontally to make a pillarbox output
(4x3 to anamorphic conversion).
• V Crop - The input frame is scaled vertically to make a vertically cropped
output (letterbox to anamorphic conversion).
• 14x 9 - The input frame is scaled horizontally and vertically as a compromise
between H Crop and Letterbox (anamorphic to 14x9 conversion).
