Switch Over Priority
Selects which input (SDI or Optical) is the preferred input. This selection is
valid only when an AJA optical SFP is installed. If and when the selected
input signal is no longer detected, the auto switchover circuit will fail over
to the non-priority input if present.
Choose from Last Valid Input, SDI Input, or Optical Input.
3G-B Mode
Selects the 3G level B Video Mode. Choose from the following: · Auto –
automatically selects the format based on the input video parameters. · Level
B-DL · B-DS Link 1 – use Link 1 · B-DS Link 2 – use Link 2
Video Format
This control can be used to force the Hi5-12G’s input video receiver to
interpret that incoming video signal as either Progressive, interlaced, or PsF
(Progressive Sequential Frame).
The default setting is Auto, in which the Hi5-12G examines the incoming video
signal to determine which format is appropriate.
Choose from Auto, Progressive, Interlaced, or PsF. · Auto – Automatically
selects the format based on the input video parameters
and the payload ID. · Progressive – Forces the Hi5-12G to interpret the
incoming video as
Progressive. · Interlaced – Forces the Hi5-12G to interpret the incoming video
as Interlaced. · PsF – Forces the Hi5-12G to interpret the incoming video as
PsF.
Under normal circumstances you should always run in Auto mode. However,
because interlaced and PsF formats are essentially the same signal, the
Hi5-12G might confuse them. For example, if you know for sure that you
receiving a PsF signal, but the Hi5-12G is interpreting it as an Interlaced
signal while running in Auto mode, setting this control to PsF will force the
receiver to interpret that signal as PsF. However, if the Hi5-12G is receiving
a Progressive signal and you force it to interpret it as Interlaced, an
invalid output video signal will be created.

HDMI/DVI
Choose Auto, HDMI, or DVI. When DVI is selected, any audio signals present are
not passed. Choosing “Auto” automatically selects the output mode based on the
attached device’s capabilities. When the incoming signal is 4K or UltraHD and
the HDMI/DVI control is set to “DVI,” the output will be downsampled to
deliver a 2048×1080 or 1920×1080 image. The downsampling is accomplished by
passing only one of the 2SI quadrants from the SDI input signal. The output
will appear to be a full picture, but is actually only one quarter of the
total pixels. This feature is very helpful when connecting to a non-4K/UHD
preview monitor.
HDR Metadata Tab Screen
Click on the HDR Metadata tab to view and, if necessary, make changes to the
Hi5-12G High Dynamic Range metadata The Hi5-12G can identify HDR Metadata from
the incoming SDI signal and either pass it through to the HDMI output, or
override them and set new values for the HDMI output.
For SDI, this metadata defines the VPID (Video Payload Identifier) for
Transfer Characteristic and Colorimetry. For HDMI, it defines the EOTF and
Colorimetry and sets parameters for the Dynamic Range and Mastering
infoframes. The HDR metadata is a mechanism to inform an HDMI sink device
(such as a TV or monitor) that the video content is HDR encoded.
NOTE: HDR Metadata values do not modify video image data. They define the HDR
metadata included in the video output.
For most workflows the Auto settings for the HDMI Out Overrides parameters are
appropriate, which will automatically pass incoming HDR metadata, if present,
through to the output. However, this metadata may need to be edited for a
specific workflow, or to correct inaccurate incoming metadata.
NOTE: You can hover the cursor over each parameter field to view its
corresponding description in a pop-up window.

The twelve Custom Metadata parameters on the left side of the HDR Metadata tab can be used to define HDR color, white point, and luminance values.
NOTE:
These settings are only applied when the HDMI Metadata parameter on the lower right is set to Custom. These values can be changed at any time (even with Auto selected), in which case those values will only be applied after selecting Custom.
Red, Green, Blue, White Point
These eight values define the color gamut and white point, and are adjustable
in units of 0.00002 cd/m2, with a range of 0.00000 to 1.00000 cd/m2.
Presets
For user convenience, the eight top values (RGB vertices and white point) can
be preset to default BT.709, default BT.2020, or to default DCI-P3 values.
DM Lum
These two parameters define the Display Mastering Luminance. · Minimum:
Defines the floor of the SMPTE ST 2086 color volume (in the case of
HDR) and is determined by the mastering environment. · Range: 0.00000 cd/m2 to
1.00000 cd/m2. · Step size: 0.00002 cd/m2. · Maximum: Defines the ceiling of
the SMPTE ST 2086 color volume (in the case of HDR) and is determined by the
mastering environment. · Range: 1 cd/m2 to 65535 cd/m2. · Step size: 1 cd/m2.
Maximum: CLL
Represents the highest-value pixel component in an entire scene. It is
determined by analyzing each frame of video, and can be determined in the post
environment. · Range: 1 cd/m2 to 65535 cd/m2. · Step size: 1 cd/m2.
Maximum: FALL
Represents the maximum of frame-based average light levels taken over an
entire scene, and can be determined in the post environment. · Range: 1 cd/m2
to 65535 cd/m2. · Step size: 1 cd/m2.
HDMI Out Overrides
The override controls on the right can be used to replace incoming or missing
HDR metadata with alternative values for the Hi5-12G’s HDMI output.
SDR/HDR
This setting controls what SDR/HDR metadata value is applied to the video
output. · Auto – Passes the SDR/HDR value from the video input to the output.
· SDR – An SDR value is applied to the output.

· PQ – A PQ value is applied to the output. · HLG – An HLG value is applied to
the output.
Colorimetry
This setting controls what Colorimetry metadata value is applied to the video
output. · Auto – Passes the Colorimetry value from the video input to the
output.
· BT.601, BT.709 and BT.2020 values are passed through. · If a non-supported
colorimetry value is received, then BT.601 is signaled for SD formats and
BT.709 is signaled for HD/UltraHD formats.
· BT.709 – A BT.709 value is applied to the output. · BT.2020 – A BT.2020
value is applied to the output.
HDMI Metadata
This setting can be used to insert custom metadata values on the HDMI outputs.
· Auto – The 8 RGB vertices/white point parameters that get inserted into the
HDMI HDR Infoframe are automatically generated: · If the incoming Colorimetry
value is BT.709, Color VANC Packet, or Unknown,
then BT.709 values are passed to the outputs. · If the incoming Colorimetry
value is BT.2020, BT.2020 values are passed to
the outputs. · Custom – The 8 RGB vertices/white point parameters defined on
the left side
of the screen are applied to the HDMI output.
NOTE: The four mastering parameters (Max CLL, etc) set in Mini-Config are
always inserted into the HDMI HDR Infoframe, although HDMI HDR Infoframes are
only generated if the SDR/HDR value is PQ or HLG.
