  DVI HDMI SDI-how do these handle color space and when converting between each?

  Posted by Phil Coulloudon on May 12, 2014 at 5:13 pm

  Can someone explain signal processing when connecting computer monitors and LCD TVs via different connections and conversions?

  – DVI to HDMI
  – SDI (BM) to DVI
  – SDI (BM) to DVI to HDMI
  – SDI to DVI to HDMI

  Are there differences in how each conversion processes color space? I am looking to keep it consistent when monitoring out of PPro and AE…latest CC versions…both PC and Mac workstations.

  We never create media for typical broadcast or other conventional distribution. All media is custom animation for Special Events…large venue projection. But we do run multiple computer monitors and standard LCD TVs for content creation and programming…many times running video thru a DVI Matrix or SDI Matrix for signal distribution. So I want to understand how each configuration effects video.

  HD and much larger canvases…BTW.

  Does PPro always work in RGB? 0-255…AE as well? Or are there settings that must be set for this?

  Thanks if anyone can help educate me!
