5.3 Professional Jargon Explanations of the OSD Menu

There are some professional jargons or nouns which are shown in the OSD menu of the PTC-280NDI camera, please refer to this section for realizing those jargons.

• Speed by Zoom: When this function is turned “ON”, at the time when the zoom-in/zoom out is beginning or it is about to reach the zoom-in/zoom-out limit or users want to stop zooming in/zooming out, the zoom-in/zoom-out speed of the camera lens will be reduced linearly. When this function is turned “OFF”, the zoom-in/zoom-out speed will be consistent no matter when the camera zoom-in is started or stopped.
• Flip-H: This is the “Horizontal Flipping”. When “ON” is selected, the screen which is shot by the camera will flip horizontally. If “OFF” is selected, the screen will be shown in normal direction.
• Flip-V: This is the “Vertical Flipping”. When “ON” is selected, the screen which is shot by the camera will flip vertically. If “OFF” is selected, the screen will be shown in normal direction.
• L/R Set: If the “REV” is selected for this option, the panning direction of the PTC-280NDI camera lens will be opposite to the direction which is controlled by the remote controller. If the “STD” is selected for this option, the panning direction of the camera lens will be the same as the direction which is selected by the remote controller.

The ADTS is a common transmission format of the AAC audio file. Sometimes, you will encounter an issue that your AAC file which is written can not be played by the PC or mobile phone when you are doing the AAC original stream coding. The possible reason for this issue is that it does not have ADTS Header package for each frame of the AAC file. What you have to do is to add an ADTS Header. The original data block length is variable for an AAC file. When you add an ADTS Header for the original frame and then wrap it up in ADTS package, it will become an ADTS frame. Each frame of the AAC audio file includes an ADTS Header and AAC Audio Data.
