Dolby Metadata
(9083 only) Extracts and preserves Dolby
®
metadata
from the input SDI, and in turn allows the metadata to
be re-inserted in the output SDI.
• Metadata Embedding Metadata Embedding (On/Off) controls SMPTE 2020-1 metadata
embedding in the SDI video output.
• When set to On, metadata is extracted from the SDI input video,
buffered, and re-directed to the output SDI video.
• When set to Off, metadata is not embedded in the output SDI video.
• Metadata Output Line Allows selection of SMPTE 2020-1 metadata line location within the VANC
space for re-inserted Dolby ® metadata.
(Range is 9 thru 41; default is line #13.)
Note: • Although the output line drop-down will allow any choice within the
9 thru 41 range, the actual range is automatically clamped (limited
to) certain ranges to prevent inadvertent conflict with active
picture area depending on video format. See Ancillary Data Line
Number Locations and Ranges (p. 3-8) for more information.
• The card does not check for conflicts on a given line number.
Make certain the selected line is available and carrying no other
data unless existing metadata is to be intentionally overwritten.
Note: (9083 only) The Metadata Output Source button in DashBoard™ is locked to Input Video for this card. With this
function enabled, the extracted metadata is always available in the SDI video output and on cards equipped with an
appropriate Rear I/O Module having a Dolby
® metadata RS-485 connector.
