The DSDI-20s is a high quality compact video converter that converts DVI to high definition or standard definition SDI video.

A popular application for the DSDI-20s is to convert a computer’s video output to the SDI digital video format so that it can be recorded for later viewing. The DSDI-20s’ high resolution HD-SDI output helps to preserve details such as small fonts typical of a computer display.

Advanced Image Processing
