Powerpoint import

[luluyves]

hello Peter
i work with catalyst and TV-ONE C2-2355A (HDSDI) and PHOENIX 2XHDSDI INPUT and it's wonderfull. no latency with video input and for Power point import it work perfect. you can connect MAC or PC in any resolution screen and the TV-one scale it and the signal is perfect.
but this is expensive like TVone:1600€ and Poenix:1900€

exactly - exactement-

peter need to test what he can get away with for his particular client at his price point-

the decklink intensity solution is much much cheaper but less flexible- and is usually ok- but he needs to test it-

---

the dvi2usb solution is an interesting curve ball- -

but usb doesnt have anywhere near high enough bandwidth to do it properly...
so they have to fudge some things -
for some people its acceptable

I think the solution to the catch of power point.
VGA -> TVOne HDSDI -> Phoenix.
But is there any alternative to the scaler: TVOne C2-2355A Scaler the price I am getting is around ? 2379.

A cheaper solution, but with good results (for conversion to HD / SDI).

Thanks

Decklink dvi extender

But you can just try using an intensity card with hdmi input

You don't want to convert to sdi if you are just doing computer stuff

Thank you very much, Richard, as always.

My intention was the setup.
VGA ---> TVOne ---> DeckLink Intensity Pro HDMI.
That looks like a fantastic solution in quality - price.

But I need a solution that does not give me any problems if there are videos or animations, embedded in PowerPoint.
Or if the client happens to shoot a video from your computer. And tell me 5 minutes before the show.

So I think the solution,
VGA -> Scaler to HD / SDI ---->Phonenix HD / SDI, seems the perfect solution.

Am I wrong?

A greeting and thank you very much.

the simplest solution is usually the best
But not always

It's best to have several techniques available in case of technical restrictions

I use the decklink DVI extender with the Phoenix card all the time. It works very well. It also has the advantage if you want to leave the PPT PC far from the catalyst, there is no problem. Just use a good BNC cable and done! And you are good up to 100M.
USB frame grabbers drop frames when you play videos.
