Realtime downconversion clarification

[Mactrix]

Oh come on … hardware scopes say nothing about
quality of anti-aliasing. Watch the image quality
and decide by your self. I do have a HD-D5 to
compare.

Hi Luke,
Sorry for the slow response… hope you’re still checking this thread.

It’s HDV 1080i 59.94

For a little more info, the image is very pixelated (as is lowering resolution) and doesn’t play back in real-time.

Thanks for any help,
Zak

I have and I can honestly say the Multibridge extreme hardware is most certainly up to any task regarding downconversion. Same for the Kona.

now the software down conversion is a whole other animal and definitely lacks the quality of the hardware downconverter.
