The Selenio™ SEL-1XD1 and SEL-2XD1 modules provide single-channel and high-density dual-channel video conversion and frame synchronization for 3G/HD/SD/3D signals. These modules are ideal for any broadcast, post-production, cable or mobile facility where processing and synchronization of NTSC/PAL, SD (480i, 576i), HD (720p, 1080i, 1080p/sf) and 3D video and audio (embedded and/or discrete) signals are required.
The SEL-1XD1 and SEL-2XD1 can retime a program signal to a local station clock for the clean processing of all synchronized signals. Signal processing functions include up/down/cross/aspect ratio and basic frame rate conversion (and optional linear frame rate conversion), processing amplifier, color correction and clipping and logo generation/insertion for single- and dual-channel applications.
The unique Rules Engine capability puts custom video and audio signal management into the hands of the user so that specially modified code does not need to be uploaded. Any video and/or audio input scenario can be detected with the user determining processing required for the output.
The single- and dual-channel SEL-1XD1 and SEL-2XD1 modules offer comprehensive video and audio processing capabilities, including conversion between video formats, control over the picture, embedded audio processing and audio tracking. Full handling of the embedded audio metadata is provided, including the ability to de-embed and embed audio metadata from external sources.
The modules feature eight AES input/output ports and two 16-channel embedder/de-embedders with internal processing of 32-channels. Analog and digital audio expansion modules provide analog audio interface capability and additional AES inputs and outputs, and internal processing channels.
Back modules can accommodate a dual-fiber input SFP and two dual-fiber output SFPs.
The SEL-1XD1 and SEL-2 XD 1 modules can be controlled remotely using the standard web server element management system, CCS Navigator™ software, HTTP web server or third-party SNMP-based control applications.
For the SEL-1 XD 1 single-channel version, there is the capability to provide the output with or without OSD. For the SEL-2XD1 dual-channel version with one input signal, there is the capability to provide one output with OSD and one output without OSD. In a dual input and output configuration, the OSD may be added to one output channel.
