YUV range
RGB range
If you have selected YUV as the SDI mode, this
setting has to be applied. It specifies whether the
color space range of the data at the in- or output
is in a restricted (Head) or in a full value range
(Full).
The color space range of YUV is normally in a restricted value range (with 8 bit data for Y from 16
to 235, and for U as well as V from 16 to 240). A
full range, for example, from 0 to 255 (8 bit data),
is less common with YUV signals.
If you have selected RGB as the SDI mode, this
setting will be evaluated. It specifies whether the
color space range of the data at the in- or output
is in a restricted (Head) or in a full value range
(Full).
In RGB 8 bit with a color space of the restricted
value range you will have values ranging from 16
(total black) to 235 (full white), whereas with a full
range color space you will have values ranging
from 0 (total black) to 255 (full white). Together
with RGB the latter color range is mainly used
when working on the computer side with editing
applications.
More details about the SDI Mode, the Matrix, the YUV
range and the RGB range settings in general can be found
in section âColor Space Conversions and Scalingsâ on
page 6-5.
Sync in
Use this combo box to set the synchronization
source for CLIPSTER. Usually, CLIPSTER runs in a
non-genlock mode, i.e. an internal synchronization is performed (Internal). To set CLIPSTER
into an analog genlock mode connect a signal to
the sync inputs of CLIPSTER and select an appropriate sync source here (e.g. Bilevel or Trilevel). If a synchronization should be
performed via the signal received on the SDI inputs, select the setting Digital.
