Notice
1.
Only HDMI enabled TV sets with underscan/overscan
*
support, the full active video can be accurately displayed.
Some HDMI equipped TV sets may not support this feature. If underscan/overscan
*
is NOT supported, the top, bottom, left and right border of the active video may be screened, and the S/PDIF audio may not sound right.
2.
Analog stereo audio can merely support 2-channel audio. This version does NOT support 8-channel analog audio applications.
3.
S/PDIF audio input can support 2 out of 8-channel audio input.
4.
S/PDIF supports only 48kHz audio sample rate. Other than this rate, the input digital audio should be adjusted to
48kHz in order to get audio signal correctly sent.
* The underscan mode displays the full video frame, which reveals content on the edge that is recorded.
In overscan , the field monitor zooms in to the area that would be visible on most televisions.
Set the field monitor to underscan if your video will be viewed on a computer monitor or shown with a projector and also to look for light stands, microphones, and other unwanted objects on the edges of your shot.
Set it to overscan to see how the video will look on a television.
