7711UC-HD & 7711UC-AES4-HD

HD Format Up Converter

VistaLINK® enabled Dolby Partner

The 7711UC-HD series of High Definition Format Up Converters deliver high quality up-conversion of SDTV to HDTV signals. The 7711UC-HD incorporates a 10 bit signal path and integrates Evertz® proprietary detail enhancement and 3D pixel adaptive noise reduction technologies. RGB gain/YCbCr gain and offset controls and RGB color limiting/legalization functions are also available.

The 7711UC-HD and the 7711UC-AES4-HD support multi-format HD/SD serial digital inputs and generate two HD serial digital outputs (1 with OSD overlays for card configuration). Inputs are auto-sensing and will "glitchlessly" switch between up-converting SD signals and passing through HD signals. An additional bi-directional BNC can be configured to supply an extra program input or an extra copy of the program output. With +F option, this extra BNC is used as a dedicated input BNC for HD FILL signals. When up-converting SD to HD, signals supplied to the HD FILL input can be keyed into the un-used portions of the output image raster (ie. side panels typically generated when converting 4:3 to 16:9) using the internal HD keyer. The internal keyer is not enabled when operating with SD IN and SD OUT.

FILL input signal must be the same format as the target output video format and must be advanced relative to output video timing (< than 1 line). These modules can accept 2 groups of SMPTE 272M embedded audio on the input and re-embed them into the serial video output (audio delay tracks video delay). The 7711UC-HD and the 7711UC-AES4-HD transport closed caption and time code information from input to output with all necessary SD to HD translation and time code recalculations taking place.

The 7711UC-HD and 7711UC-AES4-HD support the reading of AFD values from the incoming video signals and stamping of AFD values on the outgoing video. Fully adaptive AFD processing using VLPRO. The 7711UC-AES4-HD has the additional ability to stamp Dolby™ metadata on the outgoing video.
