blueThing is a compact multi-standard SD/HD-SDI to DVI-I converter designed to meet the increasing demand for HD/SDI or SD/SDI monitoring.

It enables HD-SDI or SD-SDI signals to be viewed using practically any LCD, plasma or projector display, and also features an audio de-embedder with AES/S-PDIF digital, line analogue, and headphone audio outputs for audio monitoring.

The converters’ high-quality spatial and temporal video processing deliver excellent frame-rate conversion, scaling and de-interlacing, that results in images having an amazing quality even when used on inexpensive LCD monitors.

In addition to the excellent image quality, blueThing is very easy to configure if needed. An on-screen display that allows the unit to be configured without the need of a computer.
