$ X.linkSD or X.linkLE to capture material from an analog or SDI video
source connected to your X.linkSD or X.linkLE breakout box.
¦NoteAnalog and SDI input is not supported for 486p @ 29.97 fps,
576p @ 25 fps, 1440×1080p, and 720p @ 23.98 fps, 25 fps, and 29.97 fps
projects.
$ DV-1394 to capture material from a DV-1394 device connected to your
X.link breakout box. (This option is not supported for 1080p @ 23.98 fps
and 24 fps projects.)
5 If you selected an X.link breakout box as your input device, from the Input
Source
list, select the type of input you want to capture. If you’re capturing
from X.linkSD or X.linkLE, select
SDI, Component, Composite, or
S-Video. If you’re capturing from X.linkHD, the Input Source will be set
to
SDI.
Remarks
$ If you selected DV-1394 as your input device, the name of the DV-1394
device connected to your breakout box will appear in the
Input Source box.
$ If Matrox Axio can’t detect your source device when you start a capture,
you’ll receive an error message. Either black video will be captured or the
capture won’t be able to start until a valid input signal is present. In either
case, you must make sure that your source device is switched on and
properly connected to the breakout box to properly capture the video.
$ To capture analog or SDI input for a 486p @ 23.98 fps project, you must
specify In and Out points for your captured clips (manual captures are not
supported).
6 From the Input Format list, select the video format that matches your
source video. Depending on your project’s video format, you may not be
able to change the input format. If needed, Matrox Axio will apply an
appropriate pulldown method to convert the incoming video to your project’s
video format. For example, if your project’s video format is 1080p @
23.98 fps and you set the
Input Format to 1080i@29.97fps, a standard
reverse pulldown (2:3 cadence) will be applied to capture the video to 1080p
@ 23.98 fps.
¦NoteIf you’re working with a 1440 ×1080i project, your analog source
video must be full-size 1080i (1920×1080), but it will be captured to
1440×1080i format.
7 From the Input Aspect Ratio list, select the aspect ratio of your source
video (4:3 or 16:9). For example, to capture video that was recorded using
the standard TV screen format, select
4:3. To capture video that was
recorded using the widescreen 16:9 format, select
16:9. If you’re defining
