Up-Conversion
10-bit hardware conversion
4x3 Pillar: results in a 4x3 image at the center screen with black sidebars
14x9 Pillar: results in a 4x3 image zoomed slightly to fill a 14x9 image with black side bars
Full Screen: results in a 4x3 image stretched horizontally to fill in a 16x9 screen
Letterbox to Full: results in the image zoomed to fill the full screen
Wide Zoom: results in a combination of zoom and horizontal stretch to fill a 16x9 screen, this setting will introduce a small aspect ratio change
Down-Conversion
10-bit hardware conversion
Crop: image is cropped to fit a new screen size
Anamorphic: HD image is converted to full-screen SD with a 16x9 aspect ratio
14x9: image is reduced slightly with the aspect ratio preserved, black is added to the top and bottom, and the left and right sides are cropped
Auto AFD: automatically selects the best down-convert mode based on the input video's Active Format Description (AFD) code
Letterbox: image is reduced with a black top and bottom added to the image area with the aspect ratio preserved
Cross-Conversion
10-bit hardware conversion
1080i to 720p
720p to 1080i
720p to 1080PsF
Aspect Ratio Conversion for SD to SD
Letterbox: transforms SD anamorphic material to a letterboxed image
H Crop: produces a horizontally stretched effect on the image, transforms anamorphic SD to full frame
SD Pillarbox: produces an image in the center of the screen with black borders on the left and right sides and an anamorphized image in the center
V Crop: transforms SD letterbox material to an anamorphic image
14x9: anamorphic to 14x9 conversion
Ancillary Data
Supports pass-through of PCM embedded audio
Supports pass-through of non-PCM audio when the source is in time with the selected SDI In or Ext Ref (non-PCM audio is not supported during frame sync operation)
All other ANC data is not passed
HDCP
The FS-Mini does not encode the HDMI output with HDCP encryption
By definition, HD-SDI inputs to the FS-Mini are unencrypted
The HDMI specification requires HDMI monitors to support unencrypted inputs
