AV-HS410
Live Switcher
This integrated video switcher is optimal for use at live events. It comes standard with nine inputs (eight SDI and one DVI) and
six outputs (five SDI and one DVI), with the ability to add four inputs and outputs as an option. High-performance functions include
high-quality chroma keying and versatile transitions such as DVE effects. The 178mm (seven inches) color LCD enables a
multi-display with a menu, video monitor, waveform and etc. A Memory Preview function lets you check image effects in advance,
and direct-control buttons enhance operating ease. An API function simplifies system expansion by enabling external control and
camera operation, and outputting status data.
Nine Standard Inputs/Six Standard Outputs
(Max. 13 Inputs/10 Outputs)
The AV-HS410 comes standard with nine inputs (eight SDI (HD/
SD) and one DVI-D) and six outputs (five SDI (HD/SD) and one
DVI-D). Two expansion slots accommodate optional input or
output boards, providing a maximum of 13 inputs,*
outputs.*

HD/SD Multi-Format Support
The AV-HS410 supports a variety of HD/SD formats, including
1080/24PsF, as standard. System frequency is 59.94 Hz/50 Hz/24
Hz switchable. This makes it ideal for digital cinema production
and worldwide operation. A wide range of optional boards also
allows the input and output of analog component and various
other signals. (Please see the table on page 10 for details.)
Built-in Frame Synchronizer for All Input Channels
All standard input channels feature a built-in frame synchronizer
for use in switching unsynchronized video signals. A gen-lock
function also supports synchronizing systems based on external
sync signals (black burst or tri-level).
Up-Converter, Dot by Dot and Video Processing
The AV-HS410 is equipped with an SD/HD up-converter function
for four standard inputs, and a dot by dot function for eight
inputs. Dot by dot input can be used for P-in-P display of HD
images from SD footage without degradation. A video processing

function with brightness, pedestal level, saturation, and color
phase correction is also provided for eight inputs.
Four Aux Buses and Two P-in-P Buses
Four Aux buses and two P-in-P buses are provided. Borders or
soft-edge effects can be applied to the P-in-P buses. In addition
to a Cut transition, the Bus transition function (P-in-P bus and
Aux bus switching effect) also enables a Mix transition (Aux 1
only). Flexible operation is achieved by combining Aux buses and
M/E sections.
Versatile Transitions and Effects
In addition to standard wipe, mix and cut effects, DVE transition
patterns using two channels, such as reduce, slide, squeeze and
3D wipe are included.
Primatte High-Quality Chroma Key
®
Linear, luminance and chroma keying are provided. Chroma
keying employs the Primatte
plug-in for nonlinear editors. The same excellent Primatte
quality that is used worldwide for movies, TV programs, music
videos and commercials is achieved by the AV-HS410's real-time
processing. Superior blue-spill processing naturally combines
translucent objects, such as thin cloth and glass, with
background colors. Extremely fine objects, such as individual
strands of hair, are faithfully reproduced. Two DSK channels are
also provided to add borders, shadows, and other edge effects.
