Codec Screen This screen offers a variety of controls that determine how the card behaves under
Final Cut Pro.

Pause On—these two choices determine what happens when Final Cut Pro is
paused in stop mode:
Full Frame: both fields are displayed resulting in some jitter while paused.
Single Field: a single field is displayed, showing no flicker (useful when color
correcting or whenever the flickering would be a distraction).
24-30 FPS Conversion—the value selected in this pulldown is used whenever, due
to format selection, you’ve chosen to do 24 frames-per-second to 30 conversion
where extra fields will be added to pad the existing ones. Depending on video
content, selection of different field patterns may be useful in reducing jitter due
to the content of adjacent fields. The numbers in the pattern choices specify the
frequency with which inserted fields will be repeated. For example, “2:3:2:3”
means duplicate a field twice, then the next field three times, then the next
twice, and then back to three times.
