The P164 is a video effects unit and framestore.

The P164 can genlock a free running signal onto an external sync.

Place the free signal in one of the P164's 4 inputs. If it is valid video, then the corresponding Red L.E.D will light.
Connect a lock signal to the P164's Genlock/Sync Inputs.
Navigate menus tree, set genlock to ON.
Navigate menus tree, select the video source.
Job done.

This P164 Has the Built in mixer Card installed. but the control panel doesn't know that, so until the P152 is going, you cant do this.

Aspect ratio change:

Choose source
EFX1 in menu tree
Hsize > change so picture is:
- 0.75x original for 4:3 into a 16:9 vision path (squish so black down sides)
- 1.33x original for 16:9 into a 4:3 vision path (stretch, no black), or 0.75x on the Vsize instead. (stretch, bars top & bottom).
