It can perform two different conversions at the same time, gives the output picture quality that broadcasters standardise on, and will keep the output valid with two framestore synchronisers downstream of the converter. It's one of the products that benefits from the dual syncs distributed from the Vision frame – with more outputs, easier wiring and the option of a backup reference. Up, down or cross converting untimed sources that demand the highest quality conversion and need a continuous stable output to keep the MPEG encoder happy, and perfect for studios that need to operate in HD and SD simultaneously.
