Doremi Nugget - Manual (Page 41)

7 Nugget Video Settings
The Nugget has two video settings, Video Out and Aux Out.
• The Video Out settings control signals on the DVI-A, DVI-D and HD-SDI connectors
• The Aux Out settings control signals on the Composite and SD-SDI connectors.
7.1 Best Setup for 1080i, 720p and SD Formats
If you work in 1080i, 720p or SD formats at 29.97 (59.94) or 25 (50) frames per second, both
Video Out and Aux Out can be active at the same time. Using DoremiAM Device Settings set:
• Video Out: Format=Auto and Aspect Ratio=None
• Aux Out: Anamorphic
7.2 Best Setup for 1080p Formats
For 1080p formats including 23PSF and 24PSF, the Aux output must be disabled for proper
playback. Using DoremiAM Device Settings set:
• Video Out: Format=Auto and Aspect Ratio=None
• Aux Out: OFF
7.3 Video Out Auto Mode
When the Video Out is set to Auto, the output format will be the same as the file format. This
eliminates any scaling from the output and yields the best quality picture.
7.4 Recommended Settings
Output Settings depend on how you are using the Nugget player and the display device
connected to it.
• If you want to run playlists and have seamless transitions, all files should have the same
format and must be encoded in or as I-Only. Set the Video Out to Auto or force it to the
same format the files were encoded with. If the format is 108i or 720p, you can set the
Aux Out ON.
• If you want to run playlists but don’t care about seamless transitions, your files can have
different formats, and the output can be set to Auto or be forced. If you want to avoid
monitor flickers caused by format changes, force the output and don’t set it to Auto. If
you want to avoid bad frames displayed during transitions, have some black at the start
and end of every clip.
• If you are connected to a monitor that does not support the file format you are using, you
must force the output. For example if the file is encoded in 24p and your HD-SDI monitor
does not support 24p, but support 24pSF, you should set the video output mode to
Interlaced Only.
For best HD performance we recommend:
• Video Out: Format=Auto, Aspect=None
• Aux Out: OFF.
