FS-HDR Frame Sync/Converter/HDR-WCG Processor v3.2.1r1 9 www.aja.com

Chapter 1 – Introduction

Overview

FS-HDR, a 1RU, rack-mount, universal converter/frame synchronizer, is designed

specifically to meet the HDR (High Dynamic Range) and WCG (Wide Color Gamut)

needs of broadcast, OTT, post and live event AV environments, where real time,

low-latency processing and color fidelity is required for 4K/UltraHD/2K/HD/SD

and 2K/HD/SD workflows.

Developed in partnership with Colorfront, the FS-HDR’s HDR/WCG functionality is

powered by Colorfront Engine™ proprietary video processing algorithms. FS-HDR

also comes with a set of licensed BBC LUTs carefully designed for specific HDR

color transforms.

FS-HDR also serves as a full, 1-channel up, down, cross-converter for 4K/

UltraHD/2K/HD conversion and frame sync needs and in 4-Channel mode, offers

4 independent channels of 2K/HD conversion.

The pursuit of moving from Standard Dynamic Range (SDR) to High Dynamic

Range (HDR) is the dream of getting closer to the Human Visual System (HVS) in

all that we experience as viewers. FS-HDR has been designed to get us all there

faster with a low profile, stand alone and real time device uniquely designed to

bridge SDR to HDR, HDR to SDR and HDR to HDR, all in real time.

HDR Conversions:

• HDR to HDR

• HDR to SDR

• SDR to HDR

WCG Conversions:

• BT.709 and BT.2020

Up and Down Conversions:

• Converting HD SDR BT.709 sources to UltraHD HDR BT.2020

• Converting UltraHD HDR BT.2020 sources to HD SDR BT.709

FS-HDR’s extensive digital video connectivity is only matched by its expansive

digital audio flexibility. The growth of 5.1 and 7.1 audio has increased the number

of audio channels that must be managed in a production as well as needing to

create stereo mixdowns from 5.1 and 7.1 sources. The MADI standard provides

a convenient way to transport large numbers of audio channels along a single

cable, simplifying the cabling demands for broadcasters, mobile trucks and

production. FS-HDR supports both fiber and coax connections with 128-channel

MADI input and output. An internal 277x208 audio matrix allows full routing of

MADI, mixdowns and all audio coming from SDI, fiber and AES sources for an

incredible amount of audio processing capability in a single box.

computer running a web-browser. Networks can be closed local area networks,

a straight computer-to-FS-HDR cable, or for greatest flexibility, exposed through

a firewall to a broadband WAN. From a network-connected computer you can

communicate with one or more FS-HDR devices, and you can identify the one you

are connected to via LEDs on the FS-HDR’s front and rear panels.

GPI Inputs and Outputs

General Purpose Inputs and Outputs are available on the FS-HDR back panel to

provide contact closure control. Using the inputs, an external contact closure

activates a specified function on the FS-HDR. Using the outputs, specific FS-HDR

functions can produce a contact closure to activate any desired function on

external equipment. The functions to be activated by an input or that can activate

an output are set using the front panel and browser menus.

SNMP Interface Monitoring

SNMP offers remote network monitoring of alarm conditions.

Technical Description

The FS-HDR features an incredibly flexible architecture, offering powerful Video

Processors for video conversion and processing, a separate Audio Processor, and

input and output video and audio signal routing. The FS-HDR has two operating

modes.

Four Channel Mode

In Four Channel Mode four independent HD/SD Video Processors are available,

Frame synchronization, genlock, and up, down and cross conversion is available

for a variety of video inputs and outputs. This mode also allows each Video

Processor to use any one of the other Video Processor’s video as a background or

sidebar key.

Each Video Processor routes its output to dedicated SDI output ports, depending

on the transport configuration. For single link transport the output of Video

Processor 1 is sent to SDI Out 1 and SDI Out 5 (for use with an optional SFP

module). For dual link transport, the output of Video Processor 1 is routed to

the SDI Out 1 and SDI Out 2 pair, and also to the SDI Out 5 and SDI Out 6 pair.

In addition, any Video Processor output can be routed to the monitor BNC and

HDMI outputs.

Four Channel Mode supports frame rate conversion within the same “family” of

frame rates. These families are:

• 59.94/29.97/23.98

• 50/25

• 60/30/24

Audio processing is available for all input audio, and audio can be routed to any of

the Video Processors for embedding, and to any of the audio output connectors.

Single Channel Mode

In Single Channel Mode a single 4K/UltraHD capable Video Processor is available,

allowing up, down, and cross conversion between a variety of 4K, UltraHD, 3G,

HD, and SD video formats.

The same processed output signal is sent to all the FS-HDR output connectors,

depending on transport configuration. For example, when in Quad Link mode,

the same signal is routed to the SDI Out 1-4 connectors, and also to the SDI Out

5-8 connectors (for use with optional SFP modules). In Dual Link mode four copies

of the processed video are routed to the SDI Out 1&2 pair, SDI Out 3&4, SDI

Out 5&6 and SDI Out 7&8. The Video Processor output is also available on the

monitor BNC and HDMI ports, and will be down-converted if necessary.

In Single Channel Mode only matte and black sidebar keying is available. Scale,

Position, Crop, and ROI are also available in Single Channel Mode for all formats

except when both the input and output formats are 4K/UltraHD.

Single Channel Mode frame rate conversion within the same “family” of frame

rates are supported for HD/SD signals, and for up and down format conversion

only to or from 4K/UltraHD signals. These frame rate families are:

• 59.94/29.97/23.98

• 50/25

• 60/30/24

FS-HDR Frame Sync/Converter/HDR-WCG Processor v3.2.1r1 14 www.aja.com

However, when the FS-HDR’s input and output are both 4K or UltraHD, the frame

rates must be the same even within the same family. For example, if the FS-HDR

receives UltraHD 59.94, when it is configured for UltraHD output, that frame rate

must also be 59.94.

Audio processing and routing in Single Channel Mode is similar to Four Channel

Mode.

Enhanced Single Channel Mode

When Single Channel Mode is selected and both the video input and output are

4K/UltraHD, the FS-HDR automatically enters Enhanced Single Channel Mode. In

this mode, the SDI (BNC) Monitor output can be configured differently from the

main 4K/UltraHD output. A variety of formats and frame rates (up to 2Kp 60) can

be selected, providing a second configurable video output. In addition, when

using any color transform except Dynamic LUT, different color settings can be

applied to the SDI Monitor output, independently of the main output.

Enhanced Single Channel Mode Monitor configuration changes only affect the

SDI (BNC) Monitor output, and are not applied to the HDMI Monitor output.

When Dynamic LUT is selected, the SDI (BNC) Monitor output color settings

always match the main output.

FS-HDR Frame Sync/Converter/HDR-WCG Processor v3.2.1r1 15 www.aja.com

Video Processor(s)

Each Video Processor performs format conversion, frame synchronization, signal

processing, and keying operations. Conversion is done with very high quality

scalers. De-interlacing is performed with high quality motion-adaptive processing

including diagonal filters.

The video transform processor can be configured to implement the Colorfront

Engine algorithm or a 3-D LUT processor. The integrated Colorfront Engine

proprietary video processing algorithms in each Video Processor provide the

highest quality transforms between different video dynamic ranges and color

spaces. The 3-D LUT processor supports BBC HLG LUTs, User 3-D LUTs, and

Dynamic 3-D LUT operation. The Video Processor also supports video signal

adjustment with standard Proc Amp controls.

The FS-HDR can embed 16 channels of audio from any of the audio inputs to each

complete video output. On multiple link outputs, the audio is embedded on the

first link. When signals are duplicated on multiple outputs, the same embedded

audio is present on the first link of all the duplicated outputs.

Audio Processor

The Audio Processor accepts AES, MADI and embedded SDI audio and performs

high quality sample rate conversions as required. Full audio channel mapping

supports any mixture of inputs to outputs.

Dolby 5.1 and similar schemes of non-PCM digital encoded audio can be passed

unaltered, provided the input is genlocked to the FS-HDR output.

Internal mixers are available that permit mixing down five inputs (5.1) or seven

inputs (7.1) to a left/right stereo mix. Two Mixdown mixers are available in Four

Channel Mode, and one Mixdown mixer is available in Single Channel Mode.

Optional FS-HDR Features

SFP I/O

All FS-HDR’s SFP I/O ports support up to 3G-SDI data rates. In Single Channel

mode the FS-HDR‘s SFP ports also support 12G-SDI and 6G-SDI, when equipped

with a compatible SFP module. See "Appendix A Specifications" for listings of

the types of SFPs supported. Only AJA SFP modules are supported; use of other

manufacturer's modules is not supported and may void the warranty.

NOTE: See https://www.aja.com/software/configurator for specific information about

compatible SFP modules.

Operation Overview

About Inputs and Outputs

In general, to use the FS-HDR for video conversion, select a Video Processor

Channel, select an Output Format that is compatible with the current FS-HDR

reference signal (see "About Reference and Genlock Source" on page 16), and then

select an Input port. The FS-HDR will automatically determine the selected input

video format and convert it to the selected Output Video Format. The converted

video is routed to the FS-HDR output ports.

FS-HDR Frame Sync/Converter/HDR-WCG Processor v3.2.1r1 16 www.aja.com

About Reference and Genlock Source

A source being used by the FS-HDR for reference must be compatible with the

FS-HDR video output format. These signals are compatible when they are both in

the same frame rate family (59.94/29.97/23.98, or 50/25, or 60/30/24).

The FS-HDR can be configured to operate with one of a variety of references,

including genlock to the signal from the Reference input connector, genlock to

the current video input signal, or Free Run. Your choice of reference needs to

meet your individual facility requirements, and must be accounted for when you

configure an FS-HDR video output format.

HDR and WCG Background

High Dynamic Range (HDR) and Wide Color Gamut (WCG) are relatively new ways

to present video programming that gives brighter highlights, more detailed

shadows, and enhanced colors with smoother gradients. HDR and WCG are

display oriented features, dependent on the capabilities of the device presenting

the video material.

Standards have been developed to help manage HDR signal flows, including:

• HDR-10 (for HDMI) - Uses a Perceptual Quantizer (PQ) curve that accounts for

the human visual response to maximize coding efficiency. This standard also

uses static metadata to communicate signal characteristics to the monitor so

it can optimize its display characteristics to match the signal.

• Hybrid Log Gamma (HLG) - Uses a combination log and gamma curve to

achieve coding efficiency of HDR signals while also allowing the same signal

to be shown on both standard and HDR displays. No metadata is required.

Other standards exist, or are in development, including some that have dynamic

metadata, which can be used by displays to adjust for the best possible picture

from scene to scene.

Retained Settings

The FS-HDR stores the current value of each operational parameter in non-

volatile memory so that the system returns to the same state after a power cycle.

Most of the settings for Single Channel mode are stored separately from those for

Four Channel Mode, and vice-versa. These separate settings for each mode can

be changed only when operating in that mode.

The FS-HDR also stores independent values for many settings, so that if the unit

is configured for one operation, changed to a different operation, and then

returned to that prior operation, the settings for that prior operation are restored.

For example, changing the Video Input selection automatically selects new values

for Proc Amp parameters and RGB Proc Amp parameters. This is referred to as

Source Memory.

Each video source remembers its own Proc Amp settings.

Similarly, changing the Output Format selection automatically selects new values

for H & V timing parameters. This is referred to as Output Timing Memory. Each

Output Format mode remembers its own H & V timing settings.

As another example, Output Format Mapping stores the Output Format selected

for any of the frame rates. That Mapped Output Format is recalled if the frame

rate selection is changed.

Presets can also be used to restore the FS-HDR to a previous state. Many

parameters can be individually reset to factory values using individual menus, or

the entire FS-HDR can be reset to defaults (with the PRESET, Factory Preset menu).

Presets for Single Channel mode are separate from those for Four Channel Mode.

Preset changes made in one mode will not affect settings for the other mode.

Front Panel Layout and Operation

The FS-HDR’s front panel control system is designed to be quick and easy to use.

The alphanumeric display on the left shows status and parameter information.

SELECT and ADJUST knobs provide fast menu scrolling, parameter selection and

adjustment. Status LEDs on the right report important system information.

The buttons on the front panel operate interactively. At the center of the panel

are System Selection buttons, which provide direct access to parameter menus

that control basic FS-HDR operation (like setting the output frame rate or

selecting Single or Four Channel Mode). In addition, the STATUS button brings

up menus that report FS-HDR status information, and the PRESET button displays

Preset selection menus for rapid reconfiguration. When a System Selection

button is pressed, the parameter menu that was last selected from that group will

be displayed. Pressing any of these buttons de-selects all other SYSTEM buttons,

CHANNEL SELECT buttons, VIDEO menu group buttons, and AUDIO menu group

buttons to the right.

The four VID1-4 Channel Selection buttons to the right allow immediate access

to separate parameter menus for each Video Processor (when in Four Channel

Mode). The button for the currently selected Video Processor is illuminated. In

Single Channel Mode pressing any of the four buttons will light the VID1 button,

indicating that single Video Processor is selected for control. After a Video

FS-HDR Frame Sync/Converter/HDR-WCG Processor v3.2.1r1 19 www.aja.com

Processor has been selected, the nine VIDEO Menu Group buttons on the right

are activated. The VIDEO Menu Group button that was last selected for that Video

Processor will be illuminated, and the alphanumeric display will show the last

selected parameter menu for that Video Menu Group.

Similarly, the EMBED and AES Channel Select buttons selects either Embedded

or AES audio, and activates the three AUDIO Menu Group buttons to the far

right. The last selected AUDIO Menu Group button for that audio type will be

illuminated and its last selected parameter menu will be displayed. Pressing an

Audio Channel Select button de-selects the Video Channel Select button, and

vice-versa.

This design allows rapid menu access, reducing the number of menus to scroll

through, and time is saved when button presses automatically return to their last

selected menus.
