Decimator MD-HX HDMI and SDI Cross Converter with Scaling & Frame Rate Conversion

...Anybody who owns one knows how great this product is! Love my Decimators.

Does what I need.

This is just a fantastic and versatile product. I recommend using the USB interface rather than trying to use the little LCD display on the unit, especially of you are a first timer to the product. That means you will need to go to the Decimator web site to get the control software but the software is free and well worth the effort. Once it is configured it just does what it is supposed to do.

PC hdmi to video mixer sdi. This is exactly what I need.

The Decimator MD-HX Cross Converter does an excellent job with very low latency and great resolution. We have a Blackmagic Design Mini Converter which I like too but it has more lag two frames more and runs hotter, also doesnt do HDMI. The Price is the same so its a no brainer for me, we will be buying more Decimators. Note: the screen is small hard to read not really an improvement over the dip switches on the Blackmagic but the build quality is better and the price is the same. Its a lot more versatile with horizontal & vertical flip which gives you a lot of options for camera mounting so pretty much a no brainer.

Had to convert one of our HDMI cameras to SDI and this converter did the job! Very pleased!

These have saved me so many times, I keep a fresh stock of them at work to fill in any area they may need to fit in a HDMI/SDI environment. If you run black magic gear, then you need a scaler, these should be them. Also the fact you can go between any of its ports make it a swiss army knife of AV.

This thing is a great piece of hardware to keep around for people working in live video. Its a scaler, format converter, distribution amp/duplicator and HDMI/SDI converter all in one. Plus, it can perform multiple jobs at once. You can convert an SDI to HDMI, while changing the frame rate and resolution and having a loop out of SDI, while at the same time converting a separate HDMI signal to multiple SDI outputs.

Does the SDI and HDMI conversions I need, I have this one to back up my MD-Cross V2, Honestly it does everything I need the MD cross to do for $100 less. I use it to hold the signal to a switcher active so presenters can plug and unplug their laptops without affecting the switcher.

Super versatile, reasonably easy to use. I have several and they all have worked flawlessly. I find the LCD less than easy to view. I REALLY wish there was an iOS app for settings. Yes, Id have to carry around a lightning to USB cable, but thats way more convenient than lugging a laptop.
