2x mode for 720p using HDLink?
Is there/will there be support for running 720p in 2x mode on a 30″ cinema display (like the 2x mode for SD NTSC/PAL)?
Also, would a HDLink be of any use hooked up to a consumer CRT via HDMI for the sake of matching the color profile to mimic that of a C phosphor SMPTE multires monitor?

2x Scaling is currently only available for Standard Definition.
Matching the black of broadcast monitor to a CRT monitor varies from unit to unit.
Suggest Apple Cinema Display or Dell 405FPW LCD and be amazed.Andrew McLeod

Hi,
Please refer to the support note Does HDLink support the 30-inch Apple display? for information about the HDLink and the Apple Cinema HD 30″ display. The short answer is “no” because HDLink has a single-link DVI-D output whereas the 30″ display uses dual-link DVI-D.
The DVI-D monitoring output of the forthcoming Multibridge Extreme and Multibridge Studio will support the use of single-link DVI-D and dual-link DVI-D displays. In other words, a new version of HDLink will effectively be built in to the new Multibridge models and supports the Apple Cinema HD 30″ display.
