> 3 dayI love this item, you must update the firmware before use with ATEM TVS.

> 3 dayI love this thing. Its the signal distribution version of gaff tape, fixes just about anything with enough creative engineering. One box that can function as an SDI to HDMI/DVI convertor, a HDMI/DVI to SDI Convertor, a Scaler, or an SDI DA and unlike a lot of competing products there are no dip switches or jumpers to screw with. Everything is easily accessible through the on board menu system or the USB control panel via an attached computer. Plus its a lot less expensive than any one of the three AJA boxes this can replace let alone the cost of all them. Ive had this thing running in the ballpark of a thousand hours on site now and Ive had zero issues with it.

> 3 dayLife Saver. I have a couple of these when im doing Live Production with an ATEM Switch. Often times a client requests to add a feed into the ATEM (like from a laptop or other VTR playback device) and I need these to conform that signal. I even had to convert one of my long HD-SDI cable runs back to HDMI to feed into a large LCD Screen.

> 3 dayI am using this Decimator MD-HX to feed an Apple TV Gen 4 into a Blackmagic Design Atem 1 m/e 4K at 1080i/59.94 and it works like a champ. I now have a wireless audio/video feed for speaker/presenters in a live environment that use Apple products. The Apple TV is connected via the HDMI input, then through the built-in scaler, where the signal is converted from 1080p/60 to 1080i/59.94, the HDMI output goes to a small TV for local monitoring, and the SDI output feeds an Atem SDI input. I am also using the unused SDI input to feed the second set of SDI outputs to feed two projectors. This is a very handy device!

> 3 dayOK I now have several of these and other Decimator products. They are always our get out of jail units. Do not brake, and very solid. If I had to put down any criticism it is that getting some of the setting right is not always logical (my team have a habit of pressing every button until it works).
