BMD HDPRO non-broadcast? Mediocre jitter test result !

[Steve Connor]

[eduardo sousa] “What are the real world implications if you want to record the signal ?

Is the Board only broadcast for monitoring and not for high-end playout ?”

Is that a serious question – really? Well if Matrox say it’s true I guess it must be, better throw out our HD Pro!

from your answer I can only guess that you haven`t read the article.

And I am assuming the “mediocre” jitter test has no real world implications.

It is interesting no note that a previous post on this subject “HD Stability” made by someone else, so far , got no anwsers.

Yes read the article….

“We deliberately used unnecessarily long cables, took
no care to keep video feeds away from mains supplies, looped
the signal through a monitor or two and a couple of patchbays.”

So if you are going to be sloppy with your cabling it might be worth spending the extra what is it $6000-$8000 or so?

Hey I like Matrox products. Digisuites performed well for years for us. But this seems like a “test” aimed directly at Black Magic. I’d like to see the numbers for two properly cabled systems.

If I buy an Axio it will be because of the real time abilities, not the jitter “test”.
