Down-conversion Playback Capabilities
The HVR-M35U can convert material from HD down to SD, and output the SD video signal through its i.LINK, SD-SDI, analog component, S-video, and composite connectors. This allows users to edit recorded material with a compatible nonlinear editing system using current DV editing software, as well as record SD signals to an external VTR.
When down-converting these signals, the aspect ratio displayed can be converted from 16:9 to 4:3. Display modes can be selected from Squeeze, Letterbox*16, and Edge Crop*.
*Letterbox output is not available from the i.LINK connector. For the HDV recording with four channels audio data, the audio data in the down-converted DV signal is selectable from either 1/2ch or 3/4ch.
Edge Crop Adjust
When down-converting signals in Edge Crop mode, you can use the Edge Crop Adjust function to adjust the edge crop position. By displaying the edge crop marker on the LCD monitor, operators can conveniently check the edge crop position before outputting down-converted signals.
DUPLICATE PLUS
The DUPLICATE PLUS function makes it easy to copy video and audio from a VTR or camcorder onto the HVR-M35U – along with the original time code. Operators simply connect the two i.LINK devices together via their i.LINK interfaces and press the DUPLICATE PLUS and PLAY buttons on the front panel of the HVR-M35U. Copying will then begin.
