Q: 2. Does HDMI output act as a monitor loop when converting from HDMI to SDI?

A: It can act as a monitor loop, remember, it's a distributor and converter. It will do what ever you have it do. It doesn't automatically loop sources, but if you have a looping video, it will loop it for you.

Q: 3. can i convert 1080 50p to 1080 50i?

A: I think you can...you can change to any frame rate... i don’t see why not...

Q: 4. What's operating temperature range? Can it be installed in the attic where it gets to 130F during summer months?

A: I don't know many electrical devices that can function well at that temp. I use it mostly indoors at a range of 65 - 80 degrees Fahrenheit. It is a great piece of gear and has allowed me to use a Hero 7 with my BlackMagic switcher.

Q: 5. i have an old Sony HDR-FX1 that works best on s-video output. will this work when connecting to a BMD Studio HD?

A: It will not as this device does not have an S-Video connection.

Q: 6. I am trying to convert HD-SDI to SD-SDI and I could really use some help. Here are my settings:INPUT STATUS: S: HD 1080 29.97 / H: No Signal / D: SD 480i 59.94CONTROL: SDI Out SOURCE ScalerDUC SOURCE: SDI InDUC REF: SourceSDI OUT: SOURCE ScalerSCALING: Output Format: SD 480i 59.94I have a known good input signal; When I hook the output to a Panasonic deck that accepts SDI, I get no picture at all. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

A: Hi Elaine,It looks like you have it set up correctly. It should take any SDI source in and output 480i from the SDI out #2. There is another setting Control/Output 1 is Loop . If that is set to yes then the SDI output 1 is a loop of the SDI input (your HD source). I fit is set to no then both SDI 1 & 2 should have the scaled output. Try connecting a monitor to SDI output 2 and see if there is a picture.I hope this helps,Bob

Q: 7. Audio Channel Mapping - SDI Audio 1&2 - Can SDI Audio 3&4 be mapped to 1&2 and still maintain original source of 1&2. In other words, can the Decimator MD-HX be used to combine 1&2 + 3&4 into 1&2 without destroying original 1&2? Why? Audio Mixdown for Streaming. If this would work, would be a less expensive alternative to Teranex 2D.

A: I do technical support for Symbiosis, Decimator's master distributor in the US. The MD-HX can remap audio channels to move incoming embedded audio from a pair to one or more outgoing pairs, including between groups. It cannot currently combine audio pairs to perform a mix-down.

Q: 8. will this unit upconvert 1024x768 to 720 and 1080 video formats?

A: Yes. It takes whatever input it sees and allows you to decide the output resolution with frame rate i.e on a Mac, taking 60hz and outputting 59.94.

Q: 9. will this convert 1080i 59.94 to 1080i 50?

A: Yes it is possible and it worksBut I just try it on SDI input to SDI output and HDMI outputI does not try it on HDMI inputGreetings

Q: 10. My Canon 5DIII has clean HDMI output, but if I connect to a DVI input it jumps out of clean HDMI out and mirrors my back screen. Will this device trick the camera to believe it's a normal HDMI that is connected to, while the output used is HDMI with DVI adapter ?What does the DECIMATOR do with EDID ?My plan:5DIII HDMI cable DECIMATOR HDMI cable HDMI to DVI adapter DVI input ProjectorThanks !

A: Not used it on Canon 5D, but i can tell you from the Nikon experience that yes, the scaler will legalize your signal to match your projector device. The reason of your behavior is because of the DVI adapter-is not in sync with the type of signal your camera outputs. The Decimator will correct that.
