Pulldown Method If this setting is available, select the pulldown
method you want to be applied to your video output ( Standard 2:3 or
Advanced 2:3:3:2 ). Depending on your editing video format’s frame
rate and the current video output format, a pulldown method may
automatically be selected.

Setup (NTSC) Use this to select the setup level you want for your
NTSC analog video. This affects both the NTSC analog video input and
output.
• 0 IRE Applies a setup level of 0 IRE. You should select this option
only when working with a commercial DV device that uses the
Japanese analog NTSC setup of 0 IRE. For example, if the video
appears too bright when you play back DV clips on your NTSC
monitor, you can change the setup to 0 IRE to output your DV clips at
the correct brightness.
• 7.5 IRE Applies the standard NTSC setup level of 7.5 IRE.

Aspect Ratio Conversion Use this to specify how you want your
video to be output when upscaling or downscaling:
• 16x9 Letterbox Outputs the widescreen 16:9 picture in letterbox
mode by adding black bars at the top and bottom of the picture for
display on a standard 4:3 television screen.
• 4x3 Pillarbox Outputs the standard 4:3 picture in pillarbox mode by
adding black bars to the left and right sides of the picture for display on
a widescreen 16:9 television screen.
• Anamorphic Outputs the widescreen 16:9 picture as horizontally
compressed 4:3 video, which retains the picture’s full vertical
resolution for display on a widescreen television. To display the video
with the correct proportions on an NTSC or PAL monitor, select the
16:9 display setting on the monitor.
• Center Cut Outputs the widescreen 16:9 picture by evenly cropping
the left and right sides of the picture for display on a standard 4:3
television screen.
• Center Zoom Outputs the standard 4:3 picture by evenly cropping
the top and bottom edges of the picture for display on a widescreen
16:9 television screen.
