The latest and greatest HDMI specification is 1.4a (and version 2 is expected to be released this year). The fastest/highest bandwidth category of HDMI cable is "HDMI with Ethernet." The rating of a cable's shielding (Class 2, Class 3) has more to do with fire resistance and US wiring code and is not really relevant to the matter of signal loss. ...

For amateur events, SDI may be overkill compared to using simple Component. The key for long runs is to separate the various components so that they don't degrade. There is a similar question here about long distance runs. As for HDMI to SDI, there should be no quality loss compared to HDMI as both are digital formats supporting full uncompressed HD ...

You would need a device that supports HDCP if your output source is utilizing it. That's the entire point of the system. The video signal is encrypted and will only exchange the data with a device which can cryptographically authenticate itself as an authorized HDCP receiver. Getting that certificate requires proving that they are going to follow the rules ...

It isn't really clear what you are asking here. The 23.9 frame rate is most likely 23.976 which is the more accurate standard frame rate for 24fps. This shouldn't result in a stutter. It is possible that your computer is simply not powerful enough to play the video smoothly. Are you trying to capture from both the Intensity and the MX02 at the same ...

The Mitsubishi HC4000 does not produce audio, the RCA jacks (red and blue) that you are using are for video signals only, not audio signals. These video projectors only take video in and project the images, they do not accept audio signals as far as I can tell. The intention is that you would take your audio source to a separate audio amplifier with ...

Are you sure that the Lenovo and 2011 MacBook support HDMI out via their displayPort? Native DisplayPort signals are not compatible with HDMI. What a DisplayPort to HDMI adapter actually does is simply put a DisplayPort that supports HDMI signaling in to the appropriate mode to send an HDMI signal, but it is not a required part of the DisplayPort standard. ...

Depending on how the switch is designed, it might not be sending the DDC signal back to the computers when the switch isn't set to point to them, and this could be confusing the cable-detection logic on the output ports. When you switch the switcher to the Mac, try using the Mac's "detect displays" button (on the Displays control panel) to see if it comes ...

There are no real differences between HDMI 1.3 and 1.3b so I would blame either the switch (most likely), the cables (do you have the correct ones for each device), or even the configuration settings on each machine. If you plug each one into the projector individually do they work? If so, it is your switch that is at fault. If not, try replacing the ...

1 - No, you will need more than one card. 2 - It's entirely dependant on your motherboard, but where i work we have 2 Black Magic Intensity Pro cards, and they do an excellent job of capturing HD footage over HDMI. They are also relatively cheap, so would suit your needs. They also allow you to run multiple cards in a single system.

The cheapest boards i know: the elgato game capture HD. the BMD Intensity series. In that price-category you will need one board per camera. You don't need additional HDMI- or FiWi-cards. These boards can capture via HDMI, so there are ports for that signal. Edit: Yes, this boards can capture the audiosignal too.
