# Enabling Colour Space Conversion on Clip Input

Although the preceding descriptions relate to capture from SDI to the framestore, the reverse applies when outputting from the framestore to SDI.

To enable colour space conversion on clip input:

1. In the VTR Input module, click Engineering.

   The Engineering menu appears.

   Material is captured with headroom and footroom.

To enable colour space conversion on clip output:

1. Open the clip library with the clip(s) you want to output.
2. Click Output Clip and prepare output clip settings. See Outputting Clips To a VTR.
3. In the VTR Output module, click Engineering.
4. In the Engineering menu, select the output connection from the Output Connection box.
5. From the Colour Space box, select YCbCr->RGB+Headroom.
6. Output the material.
