  • 1.  Output FC in UHDp25 // Carbonite Ultra

    Posted 09-12-2023 04:37

    Hello everyone, 

    Ran into an issue that i cant quite wrap my head around.

    In UHD Mode you are given 4 Output Frame Converters. Our client asked to run in UHD 25Hz for the look and feel of the cameras. 

    After i switched to 25p and also restarted the system, my output converters are not there ... you can still assign them in the reference tab but cant set any parameter in the output tab. I checked the manual but couldnt find any limitation regarding this issue... am i missing something ?

    Hi Sebastian,

    At UHDTV1 25Hz, the switcher supports input format conversion, but not output format conversion. I have attached a screenshot from the manual where it lists the supported FSFC Input and Output Formats at UHDTV1.

    The switcher will need to be at 50Hz to convert the output to 720p/1080i/1080p.

    Thanks for clearing that up Aaron, 

    I understand now. I had read that wrong...it makes sense on the chart. 

    Is there any reason that it is not supported or is it just not a feature at the moment ? i can understand that a conversion outside of the switchers native format would be a strech, but converting to 1080p25 would be nice in case you have to include some devices under 6G or 12G SDI capabillity.

    Hi Sebastian,

    I will need to confer with the dev team on this. If it is not a feature at the moment, I will see if it can be added to the list.
