>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> 1. When the camera is operating, the EIP (Enhanced Image Processor)

>>>>>>> 4:2:2 data are output via the HDMI port while 4:2:2 analog is output via
>>>>>>> component-out. Therefore, you can record 4:2:2 live HD video from the

>>>>>>> that carries uncompressed 4:2:2, 8-bit, digital video plus dual-channel,
>>>>>>> PCM, 16-bit, 48kHz audio When the camera is running.
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> 2. If you are playing a 1080i50 or 1080i60 HDV tape. The 4:2:0
>>>>>>> MPEG-2 is decoded and chroma up-scaled to a 4:2:2. The HDMI
>>>>>>> chip downscales 1440 to 1280 while it up-scales 540 to 720. The
>>>>>>> result is 720p50 or 720p60, which is output via HDMI.
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> That is, I have tested section 1 now, but see now that I didn't test
>>>>>>> 1440x1080 resolution. The only resolution I got to work at 25 fps was
