How does FS8 maximize UHD processing density?

Category: FAQ

Released: 2026-09-01

FS8 gives users the flexibility to choose between maximum UHD channel density and full-resolution UHD processing.

In HD Vid Proc mode, each of FS8’s eight Video Processors can accept UHD input and provide either an HD or UHD output, enabling up to eight UHD signal paths. In this mode, the signal is processed internally at HD resolution using utility scaling.

In UHD Vid Proc mode, two Video Processors are paired to provide full-resolution UHD processing and true spatial HD-to-UHD up-conversion or UHD-to-HD down-conversion, supporting up to four UHD channels.

This flexibility allows users to apply full-resolution UHD processing where image detail and spatial conversion are critical, while using higher-density HD Vid Proc mode for UHD workflows where HD-resolution processing is acceptable. This can reduce the number of systems required, conserve rack space, and lower overall system cost.
