Converting to HD-SDI

If you are only going DVI in and DVI out I would say that the Barco DVI 8x8 Matrix pro is the way to go. Its only drawback is its only a DVI switcher with programmable EDIDs per input.... but its far better solution than DVI detectives, and also means you can have a switching setup for backups.

the downside is there is no scaling or positional stuff, but in truth I really don't like doing that outside of catalyst with LED screens, as it usally means there is latency being added to the system and another point where disaster can bite your gig(lets just say extrons are BANNED on my gigs). And there is no genlock. But for DVI routing they are the business and the latency is a lot less than using a Folsom with DVI in and linking through.

Eh Phil... The thread was "Converting DVI to HDSDI. I prefer staying DVI. In fact, I use fibre and a fibre router in my backup path. The clients I have though are all HDSDI and I pass through their switchers which means I have to Genlock.
