Q: 1. Why does the horizontal flip work but not the vertical flip when feeding the MDHX a segmented/Psf scan rate?

A: I am sorry that you are having issues with your MD-HX. There are any number of variables that can be effecting its operation. It would probably be better if you emailed us at provideo@a href= http://bhphoto.com target= _blank bhphoto.com/a so we could ask you some additional questions. We'll be better able to serve you that way.

Q: 2. Can I power the GoPro from the USB port?

A: Simple answer is no. This is a control and configuration port.

Q: 3. I have a panasonic AG-AC130 video camera. I tried the black magic box but the audio wouldn't work. Will it work with the Decimator going from HDMI to SDI?

A: Unfortunately I don't have this specific camera, but I have used many different HDMI sources and exported the audio with no problems out of the HD-SDI output. Sources include Canon C300, Canon C300MKii, PS4, GoPro Hero 3+, PC with NVIDIA 1070 GPU, and even a SCART to HDMI converter I use with vintage computers. Perhaps you should slo check that you have your camera set to output sound via the HDMI output.

Q: 4. Does this include a mounting plate to attach it to a rack?

A: It includes a mounting plate to attach it to a surface, but you would need to get a rack compatible surface to which you would attach the mounting plate.

Q: 5. We have all 4 SDI inputs occupied in our ATEM Production Studio 4K. Does this unit have problem converting HDMI coming from an matrix to HDMI input in the ATEM? Right now I can't get signal straight from the matrix even when setting the input in the matrix to the ATEM's configuration 576i@50 or 1080i@50 or 59.94I noticed all comments use this for converting to HD-SDI before the switcher; would there be problems going HDMI to HDMI scalled to an BM ATEM Prodution Studio 4K? Thank you!

A: I have not had a problem scaling anything from hdmi or hd-Sdi to either with these boxes. I have 20 of them. I have however had input issues with BM hardware and often have to try multiple versions of firmware for various option to work. Are you saying your matrix to decimator isnt showing up as an input in the MD-HX? Does it work going direct out to a monitor? Does the monitor give you the connection details?

Q: 6. Will this save settings? I want to use this to feed a teleprompter. If I enable the horizontal image flip, can I save the setting so that it flips the image after a power cycle?

A: Yes it saves settings. I set ours to convert from i50 to i60 and it remembered after a powercycle even though you never save the setting.

Q: 7. How does this unit come on/off? Does it have an on/off switch or will it turn on/off when plugged in/out?

A: There is no power on/off switch. It is meant to always be on.

Q: 8. I'm currently using a BM HDMI to SDI to get a Mac from a lectern to video world. The BM ATEM will not accept 60Hz over SDI. Can I use this instead of the BM converter to get HDMI @ 60 out of the Mac and convert it to SDI @ 59.94 for SDI input?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Mac can spit out 1080p at 60 (3G), and the Decimator can scale to 1080i at 59 (or anything else). Plus with firmware v1.3 and v1.4, you can even genlock the SDI output (1line delayed). This is a great, well made box that does a great number of things.

Q: 9. How clean will it deinterlace? I need to convert a 1080 60i hdmi out from a camera to 1080 30p, will the recorded signal look a clean 30p? meaning no interlace artifacts?

A: The quality of conversion of interlaced footage to progressive partly depends on the footage. However the MD-HX does have a very high quality deinterlacing algorithm comparable with products several times its price point and is relied upon for this daily by broadcasters and video professionals worldwide.

Q: 10. Will this convert a 1080p signal from a BMPC4K to 1080i?

A: You're using this for an Output Converter. Yes. We use these for Input Converters from HDMI 1080 Cameras & PCs to Blackmagic Design ATEM 2 M/E Production Studio 4K. Solid performance. We found the software makes them easier to configure quicker than using the on screen display. The on screen display is great for verification of signal In & Out.
