Good scaler.

Does what it says without any issues. I use it to change a 1090i feed to 1080p and back. Works well with no issues.

Why settle for less when you can have the best with the AJA FS2 Dual Channel Universal 3G/HD/SD Audio/Video Frame Synchronizers and Format Converter This advanced and sophisticated device is capable of simultaneously processing two independent streams of 3G/HD/SD 10-bit broadcast-quality video and two separate groups of 16-channel AES audio.

Each video channel of the FS2 supports virtually any input or output, including analog component or composite, 3G/HD/SD-SDI, Dual-Link, and HDMI I/O. This high-tech device can function as two separate Frame Synchronizers/Format Converters, or you can combine the channels in a variety of powerful configurations.

The FS2 is not just a format converter; it's a versatile tool that can up-convert or down-convert between SD and HD, and cross-convert between various HD formats, including the 3G 1080p50/60 formats. This innovative device also boasts full input and output signal routing, allowing any I/O port to be assigned to either processing channel.

When it comes to audio, the FS2 doesn't disappoint. It features two audio processors, each supporting 16-channel AES/EBU digital audio, 16-channel embedded audio, and 8-channel balanced analog audio. This provides a variety of controls for maximum flexibility.

The FS2 also supports closed captioning and the conversion of closed captioning between SD and HD formats, including full conversion between CEA-608 and CEA-708 caption standards.

Network-ready, the FS2 supports SNMP monitoring and web-based remote control, with a 3rd-party Remote Control Panel available. With its ability to support all broadcast video formats, the FS2 simplifies the process of matching up disparate video and audio systems.
