  • 1.  CustomPanel - Crosspoints with frame delay.

    Posted 03-15-2024 15:23

    Hello, 

    I currently have a Carbonite Ultra switcher running at 4k video mode. I have 3 video sources (CAM1,CAM2,CAM3) that enter the switcher in 1080i format. As the switcher converts them, I'm able to display them in 4K on the Multiviewer.

    However, a client asked me to create the following setup:

    • Have a PGM output in 4K, and another output (also PGM), but in 1080i. This first "mission" was easy to complete, just using the output FC Assignment.
    • Now, the second requirement is that when I have CAM1, for example, in PGM, the 1080i output is streamed with 7 frames of delay in relation to the PGM output in 4k (which will also be with CAM1).  I am having difficulty executing this requirement.

    Could you help me with this? I don't know if it is possible to perform this operation through a specific configuration on Carbonite Ultra, or through customizing a panel on the Dashboard.

    Thanks,

    Hi Joāo,

    As you know, Input Delay is available in Carbonite Ultra but not Output Delay.

    One way around this could be to re-enter a 12G output and bring it back into the switcher as in Input, then delay that signal to the appropriate amount of delay and then down-convert on an Output.

    I hope that this works out for you.
