TV One Introduces HD and PC to HDMI Video Scaler, HDMI Distribution Amplifiers and Switching Transit

TV One made several announcements recently, including HD and PC to HDMI video scaler, HDMI distribution amplifiers and new switching transition effects for the company’s C2-1000 series and C2-2000.

The 1T-AVPC-HDMI HD and PC to HDMI Video Scaler outputs resolutions up to 1080p. Analog PC inputs to WUXGA@60Hz are accepted along with analog YPbPr/YCbCr HDTV inputs to 1080p. The digital inputs accept HDMI & DVI-D signals up to 165 MHz plus digital PC RGB signals up to UXGA@60Hz.

It has integrated DVI/HDCP/HDMI compliant receiver and 3-D motion adaptive de-interlacers. It also has 3:2 pull-down, 2:2 pull-down detection/recovery and 3-D noise reduction.

The suggested retail price for the 1T-AVPC-HDMI is $595.

The new HDMI Distribution Amplifiers are the 1T-HDMI-612, 1T-HDMI-614 and 1T-HDMI-618. Users can have two HDMI outputs with the 1T-HDMI-612, four outputs with the 1T-HDMI-614 and eight with the 1T-HDMI-618. All three are ATC Tested and Certified HDMI Compliant as well as HDCP Compliant.

The distribution amps require no control or set up, says TV One, just connect to a source and multiple displays or other destinations. HDTV resolutions of 480p, 720p, 1080i and 1080p are supported as well as 480i non-HDTV resolution.  All products are RoHS compliant.

The suggested retail prices for the units are $299 for the 1T-HDMI-612, $349 for the 1T-HDMI-614 and $599 for the 1T-HDMI-618.

TV One also added special effect transitions to the C2-1000 series and C2-2000 series products. In addition to cuts, a wide variety of fades and transitions are now available.

The new transitions will fade the first video source to reveal black then fade back to the newly selected video source. The default background is black, but you can choose any color. If the unit is set to Mix mode (like when keying or using PIP), the video is revealed during the fade out and fade in.

The wipe transition has a choice of left to right, right to left, top to bottom, bottom to top, diagonal and diamond. The wipe size may be changed to create repeated versions of the transitions.  This will give a “window blind” or diamond checkerboard effect. The first video source wipes off to reveal the background and then the newly selected source wipes on. The default background is black, but the color may be changed to any color. If the unit is set to Mix mode (like when keying or using PIP), the video is revealed during the fade out and fade in.

Prices vary according to which unit you want to incorporate the effects.
