Doremi Labs introduces the XDVI
Multi-Format Converter for DVI, SDI, VGA and HD-SDI

Las Vegas, NV - NAB2004 - April 19, 2004 - Doremi Labs will be displaying its new compact XDVI multi-format converter at NAB 2004. The XDVI converts video between different computer scan rates, HD-SDI and standard definition video.

The XDVI features DVI, SDI, and HD-SDI inputs and outputs. Any input can be converted to any output format or scan rate. XDVI applications include computer to video scan conversion, HD video up-conversion, down-conversion and much more. The analog VGA format is also supported via the DVI-I input.

The XDVI's conversion capabilities can be used in numerous applications. Some of which are outlined below:

  • The XDVI can convert a computer's video output (DVI or VGA) to the SDI video format so that it can be recorded for later viewing or displayed by a video monitor. The XDVI's HD-SDI output helps to retain the high resolution details and small fonts of a computer's display.

  • The XDVI provides high quality HD up-conversion and HD cross-conversion by converting between any SD or HD format to its HD-SDI output.

  • The XDVI can be used to convert from one DVI scan rate to another to better match the native resolution of a video display. For example, a 1280 by 800 scan rate can be converted to 1920 by 1200 and vice versa.

  • The XDVI can turn a low cost computer LCD monitor into an SDI or High Definition video monitor. DVI (Digital RGB) is now a standard interface on many LCD computer monitors, video projectors and HDTV televisions. The XDVI effectively turns these displays into affordable serial digital video monitors.

All the functions listed above can be performed by one compact XDVI box that can fit in the palm of your hand. The XDVI setup menu is displayed as a burn-in window through its SDI or DVI outputs. An infrared remote control is provided to navigate through the menus.
