4-10. Setting the ancillary data
In this section, the function for allowing the ancillary data of the SDI input signals to pass through is set.
If SD format signals are input while the HD format has been set as the system format, it will not be possible for 
their ancillary data to be passed through.
 
 Setting the V ancillary data
It is possible to decide whether to allow the V ancillary data, which is superimposed in the vertical blanking 
period of the input images, to pass through the PGM bus.
The background bus data which is output to program (PGM) is passed through for images whose transition has 
been cut off.
During a transition, the background bus data which was output to program (PGM) immediately before is passed 
through.
