This product works great. I don't have to worry about what source size and refresh rate. Am I sending in because the decimator will scale it to what I need to send out an amplify the signal.

Good value for ins and outs works with my Tricaster mini SDI

Solid build and I like the power connector is secure. The manual is non existent so it took a few trips through the menu to configure my desired ins and outs. I am using this to connect an HDMI camera to the Tricaster mini SDI. It works well for my needs.

Solid Unit

It seems built like a tank, solid, heavy, with a notable heat sink. Easy to use as well, with plenty of options.

Great Bidirectional Converter

Finding this to be a great device to us to use while capturing from different lap tops to an atomos to ensure the input to the atomos remains a fixed input type, size and frame rate!

A swiss Army Knife video device

I think the title says it all, a swiss army knife for video device! Use it for many different configurations . it can trans-code and scale in two directions at the same time. A show saver and real work horse!
