It downconverts to NTSC or PAL Composite signals<br />
and to HDMI, and de-embeds audio (no other flavors of SD, be it digital or<br />
analog) [September 2010 version will have audio meters]. Input can be either<br />
PAL or NTSC HD-SDI and output can be NTSC or PAL switchable composite<br />
and HDMI.<br />
Has problems with 23.98 frame on HDMI… Perry Drogo says: “The Decimator2<br />
will pass all formats of SDI to HDMI with the next Firmware update, which will be<br />
available at the end of October 2010. For now it works as the Decimator 1 does<br />
fine for composite out at 23.98.”<br />

operator lives in Los Feliz and can give all round good advice.<br />
Powerplug and special cables: there is a very unusual power plug on the<br />
Decimator. Look at it closely it is polarized with a little lip. You must align the<br />
lip on the plug with the hole on the receptacle for it to insert and hold!!!<br />
We make cables adapting to all cameras or fancy “Y” cables to Decimator and<br />
any transmitter. Most are $ 150.00 some more. Call we have most in stock. <strong>Wolf</strong><br />

Note: The RedOne Camera sometimes (often) has a jitter in its HDSDI output.<br />
This is not cured by downconverting, only by a good “reclocker”. Folks prefer the<br />
AJA HD10DA because it works while the 3G version of the AJA DA has caused<br />
some operators problems. Others like the Black Magic.<br />
