7.1.3 SD ANALOG CONNECTIONS
Figure 111
As discussed back in Section 3.5.2, TriCaster’s (Program) VIDEO OUT connector rows can
variously output HD or SD, according to the session format. The third row, referred to as the Aux
(Auxiliary) video output, is somewhat unique and in consequence is discussed separately in the
next section.
Let’s consider the different configuration possibilities for Program video output (Rows 1 and 2).
Again, the Program video output format always matches the session. In turn, this means its HD
video output will be either 1080 or 720. Let’s consider how this affects the SD Analog Connection
options offered.

The sole analog video connection type commonly supporting HD is Component.
Consequently, the analog Connection Type for HD sessions is always Component (SD
Analog Connection options are ghosted).

This means that the four BNC connectors for Program (Row 1 and 2) output will be
automatically configured as HD-SDI and HD Component (three connectors – Y, Pr and
Pb) for all HD sessions.
