9902-DC-4K PRODUCT MANUAL

9902DC4K-OM (V1.5)

Timecode Processor

Note:

The timecode function is tied to and considers timecode sources only 
received on SDI IN A.

(See Figure 1-2.) This function provides for extraction of timecode data from 
input video source, and in turn allow individual timecode strings to be 
embedded and/or burned into the output video. The function can monitor any 
of the video inputs of the card for supported timecode formats such as 
ATC_LTC or ATC_VITC for down-conversions to HD, and ATC_VITC or 
VITC waveform (with selectable odd/even field line number control) for SD 
SDI or CVBS inputs. Waveform VITC timecode can also be extracted from a 
reference input and used as the output timecode value. If the preferred format 
is detected, the preferred format is used by the card; if the preferred format is 
not detected, the card uses other formats (where available) as desired. An 
internally-generated free-run timecode can be also be embedded on output 
video if desired.

The function also provides conversion between various timecode formats and 
provides independent insertion and line number controls for each SDI 
timecode output format. 

 When licensed with option 

+LTC

, this function also can 

receive, send and translate between audio LTC timecode formats and the VBI 
formats described above.
