HDR and WCG Conversion Methods

Conversion for HDR and WCG can be applied at a number of points in the video stream through the switcher. Where you apply conversion will depend on how you want to use the video.

• Switcher — the switcher is operating in a particular HDR and WCG mode. These are the color gamut and dynamic range that all sources are converted to and all outputs are set to. Refer to To Set a Reference Format for information.
• Input Conversion — conversion is applied to the input video to match the mode the switcher is operating in. Like video format conversion, you must select the HDR and WCG that the source is coming into the switcher in. The switcher will then convert the video to the same color gamut and dynamic range that it is operating in. Refer to To Set Up Video Sources for information.
• Output Conversion — conversion is applied to the output video. You can set an output to convert the color gamut and dynamic range of any video source being fed out it. This conversion is only applied to the selected output. Refer to To Assign an Output Source to an Output BNC for more information.
• Individual Conversion — the internal color correctors are used to convert a particular source on a particular bus. You can manually convert a source on a bus and use the color correction menu to adjust the video. Refer to To Apply Proc Amp Video Correction to a Source for more information.
