Perfect Card for the Price

This is great card for the cost to get a true yuv signal out to reference monitor while editing. It is the least expensive card offered by Grass Valley. The nice thing about the card is it does exactly what it is advertised to do.

Nice Option for Edius Editors

Quick to install. Nice/easy way to output full screen image to a large LCD or Plasma TV via HDMI to see exactly how your video will look on consumer TV's. Only drawback is the card only supports a few project resolution/frame rate settings. Would be a 5 star if it supported more settings.
