Value Added!value added !

The HDP is a miniature HD-SDI/SDI to DVI-D converter for LCD or Plasma monitors. Using a very high quality scaling engine, the HDP will automatically size 4:3 or 16:9 inputs to many DVI-D monitors (see Technical Note below). For appropriate monitor configurations, scaling is automatically 1 to 1 — for example, displaying 1920x1080 video on a WUXGA (1920x1200) monitor. The HDP will also automatically adapt the input frame rate for monitor compatibility. In addition, the HDP provides 2 channel RCA style audio monitoring and 2 looping outputs of the SDI inputs. HDP is the ideal solution for displaying SDI or HD-SDI on any LCD or Plasma DVI-D monitor.

Technical Note

The HDP is designed to work with most DVI-D monitors. The HDP uses the industry standard EDID communication protocol (within the DVI link) to communicate with the monitor, and then adjusts the HDP's internal scaling engine to scale the input video to the native resolution of the monitor. However, due to the hundreds of variations of DVI formats currently in use, proper operation with all monitors cannot be guaranteed. The HDP has 2 modes of operation that occur automatically, depending on what monitor it is attached to. These modes are Recommended Monitor Mode or VESA Mode.

Recommended Monitor Mode
For recommended monitors, there is custom firmware that will provide an accurate frame-locked image for all supported SDI and HD-SDI input formats. The HDP automatically determines the monitor it is connected to.

Key Features:-

  • Converts HD-SDI/SDI to DVI-D for LCD/Plasma monitors
  • Automatically adapts to any LCD monitor up to 1920x1200
  • High quality scaling engine for proper display of 4:3 or 16:9 conte
  • Scaling is 1 to 1 for appropriate monitor configurations
  • 2 channel audio output
  • 2 HD-SDI/SDI looping outputs
  • Flexible 5-18V power supply

The Only Card for OS X & Final Cut Pro 5 with HD, SD Analog & Digital I/O
Not an entry-level card, KONA LHe offers a full ride to HD with no-compromise, 10-bit uncompressed video, 2-channel AES and 8-channel embedded audio, analog composite/component video I/O, 2-channel analog audio I/O, broadcast-quality hardware downconversion and TBC on analog inputs. KONA LHe bridges the analog and digital worlds by offering I/O for both. A lot of card for a low price, KONA LHe also features dual-monitor desktop viewing for editing ease. The KONA LHe comes standard with a breakout cable and also works with the optional KL-Box for rackmounted I/O convenience.

Supporting native 10-bit resolution, KONA LHe provides optimum quality for SD and HD - the maximum allowed in SMPTE SDI standards. Using QuickTime format, KONA LHe captures directly to 10-bit files on disk, and also supports many legacy 8-bit formats for backward compatibility. KONA LHe also supports DVCPROHD and HDV, DV25, DV50, JPEG and more.

In addition to perfection in video, KONA LHe offers all the audio support you'd ever want: native OS X multi-channel audio and 24-bit AES/EBU digital audio at 48kHz for digital production. For ease of use, KONA LHe also includes hardware sample-rate conversion on AES inputs - eliminating source synchronising requirements.

As the only card available supporting HD/SD analog I/O, KONA LHe is perfect for not only uncompressed, but also HDV and other diverse workflows.

KONA LHe Hardware Acceleration
Final Cut Pro users will love DVCPROHD, HDV, and Apple RT Extreme hardware acceleration, developed in close cooperation with Apple and available exclusively on KONA LHe. KONA LHe hardware takes a portion of the codec processing load off the CPU, allowing more RealTime (RT) effects in Final Cut Pro 5 when outputting. KONA LHe also has hardware support when capturing. This brings amazing RealTime HD production power to the desktop. With KONA LHe, any source can be captured using the DVCPROHD codec - giving you online HD quality at remarkably low data rates, allowing the internal PowerMac SATA storage to be used for HD capture, playback and RT effects. Of course, you'll obtain still better performance and more RT when using a fast SCSI or Fibre array, but this feature allows HD to be used where only SD would have been considered because of budget or time constraints. KONA LHe even supports the DVCPROHD and HDV codecs with downconversion - allowing projects to be downconverted to SD, or even upconverted for DVCPROHD capture.

How Does KONA LHe Accelerate DVCPROHD, HDV & Apple's Dynamic RT?
Because KONA's precision hardware does part of the work, the G5 has more time available to process RT effects. This means more RT-effects power and more RT streams. Most broadcast codecs, including DVCPROHD and HDV, use a two-step process. The video is first scaled to a lower horizontal pixel count, and then the video is compressed. This is done because the slightly scaled video results in a favourable tradeoff between resolution and codec efficiency. KONA LHe's hardware not only dramatically speeds up the scaling part of the job, but it's also done with full 10-bit broadcast quality. When using the Final Cut Pro 5 HDV codec, KONA LHe's hardware acceleration allows instantaneous RT playback for both monitoring and recording. Even KONA's downconverter works in realtime with HDV, allowing SD monitoring, dubs or mastering. This KONA LHe functionality makes HDV a fully professional solution. The Panasonic DVCPROHD format takes advantage of KONA hardware as well. KONA's precision hardware allows capture and playback of HD-SDI video to and from the DVCPROHD codec at a quality level virtually indistinguishable from native FireWire, while freeing up valuable RT processing power. For Final Cut Pro 5's Dynamic RT feature, KONA's hardware is used to offload the video scaling as the "Playback Video Quality" dynamically adjusts. This allows more playback power - and because KONA handles it seamlessly, the Dynamic RT you see on the Mac monitor is the same as that shown on your professional broadcast monitor.

KONA LHe Supports Final Cut Multi-Cam Feature
Final Cut Pro 5 now provides multi-cam playout - and KONA LHe supports it! With KONA hardware and a sufficient storage solution, you can handle up to 16 sources in realtime. Each stream of video is captured individually and then ganged together in Final Cut Pro 5 for a multi-cam editing workflow. The KONA LHe hardware seamlessly plays the multi-cam clips out to professional broadcast monitors or decks, via SDI, HD-SDI or component video. Up to 16 sources can be viewed in realtime via the KONA (4-up, 6-up, 9-up, 16-up, etc.), or each individual source can be viewed as it is selected via Final Cut Pro 5.
