Cheap High Definition Video Processor DVDO EDGE
Cheap High Definition Video Processor DVDO EDGE
Technical Details
- World Class Video Processing with award winning Video Reference Series technology by Anchor Bay delivers the most detailed Full HD 1080p images to an HDTV from all video sources of any quality
- 10 Inputs including 6 HDMI 1.3 inputs and user-defined automatic switching
- Setup Wizards and included remote control make installation a breeze
- Eliminate ¿Black Bars¿ with intuitive zoom controls
- Low Latency Processing for Gamers
Product Description
Manufacturer’s Description
The DVDO EDGE is a video processor and A/V hub that gives you the best HD quality from standard video sources like standard DVD and standard cable, satellite or broadcast television signals. The secret is in the outboard video processor’s computer processing capabilities, which provide deinterlacing and scaling far superior to that included in most HDTVs or upconverting DVD players. Perhaps the most amazing thing about the EDGE is that it provides the kind of technology that previously cost 5-15 times the retail price of the EDGE.
The EDGE converts standard definition, high definition and PC signals from up to ten sources (including six HDMI 1.3 compatible devices) at any source resolution up to 1080p. EDGE has a very intuitive user interface which makes installation a breeze. EDGE has two HDMI 1.3 outputs, one with audio and video and one with audio only to facilitate connections to an HDMI/DVI equipped display and HDMI AV Receiver. An optical audio output is available for older AV Receivers. A back lit universal remote control with a luxurious “soft-touch” finish is also included.
Fine Detail & Edge Enhancement
| Sharpness controls are not new in the world of video - nearly every TV sold in the last 20 years features a sharpness control. However, sharpening controls merely accentuate medium detail at the expense of fine detail and often add horrible “halos” around the edges and lines. While this trick was a reasonable approach for standard definition TV, when screen sizes were well under 30 inches, today’s large screen TVs and HDTVs have made traditional sharpness controls highly undesirable since the damage they cause is now magnified with such larger screens. In addition, traditional sharpening controls tend to exaggerate any noise in the image by making it more pronounced so noise becomes even more pronounced when viewed on a large screen HDTV.
Anchor Bay has designed Fine Detail & Edge Enhancement with large screen HDTVs in mind. Using patent pending technology, Fine Detail & Edge Enhancement is able to isolate areas of the image where hard edges are prevalent and increase fine details without adding halos or ringing. The net effect is quite extraordinary - images have more “pop” and fine detail such as blades of grass or even the pores on an actor’s face are drawn out making your large screen HDTV even more enjoyable. Moreover, Mosquito Noise Reduction can be used to remove objectionable ringing and noise in the image before using Fine Detail & Edge Enhancement to draw out the fine details in the image. |

Precision Deinterlacing
Anchor Bay’s 10-bit Precision Deinterlacing of standard and high definition delivers the image quality demanded by today’s large-screen, high-resolution displays. It eliminates many of the artifacts found in common deinterlacers to produce a smooth image, free of artifacts such as jagged edges and combing. All processing is performed at full 10-bit resolution to preserve all the detail and subtle nuances in the video source. Edge-adaptive processing uses an adaptive, continuous-angle detection algorithm to accurately identify and smooth image edges. Unique, “any-cadence” processing automatically locks to the wide variety of film and animation cadences found in current video sources, including non-standard cadences, and will track right through many types of “bad edits” and cadence changes.
- Five-field motion adaptive deinterlacing for video sources
- Advanced cadence detection for film and animation sources
- Game Mode with very low latency (sub-1 frame delay) for maximum “playability”
- Edge adaptive processing to produce smooth diagonal edges
- Three frame video processing delay (Max)
- Arbitrary cadence detection (any:any) to detect non-standard cadences in input signals.
- Reliable 2:2 pull-down detection for 50Hz countries
- Detection of 2:2 ↔ 3:2 crossfades and out of phase 3:2 crossfades
- Detection of multiple source types within a frame
- Bad edit detection and compensation to minimize artifacts caused by sequence breaks in film content
Precision Video Scaling
Anchor Bay’s 10-bit Precision Video Scaling technology is based on Anchor Bay’s proprietary video scaling engine that can independently scale an image horizontally and vertically to achieve an outstanding picture quality for today’s high resolution video displays. The scaling engine is completely flexible, accepting standard definition (480p, 576p) and high definition (720p, 1080i and 1080p) inputs and outputting the most popular resolutions from VGA (640×480) to 1080p (1920×1080). Since the scaling engine is completely flexible, other image manipulation features are also supported including zoom and pan.
PReP, Progressive ReProcessing
Anchor Bay’s Progressive ReProcessing (PReP) is the video processing industry’s first processing method that significantly improves progressive video signals and removes artifacts caused by inferior interlaced-to-progressive conversion.
Video signals that originate in an interlaced format are often degraded by artifacts incurred when the signal is converted from interlaced to progressive formats by general purpose chips in DVD players, AV receivers, and set-top boxes. Until now, there has been no way to improve these signals to optimize images on high-resolution displays. Poor interlaced-to-progressive conversion is especially problematic with large-screen HDTVs, as upscaling to higher resolutions often amplifies artifacts created in the conversion process, making them more noticeable.
As a solution to this problem, Anchor Bay introduces PReP, an advanced video processing technology that reverts the progressive video signal output from source equipment to its original interlaced format. PReP then converts the interlaced signal to progressive format, this time applying the source, edge, and motion adaptive algorithms in its Precision Deinterlacing technology to eliminate jaggies, combing, and other degrading effects. PReP technology allows 480p, 576p, 1080p/50, 1080p/60, and other formats to be processed by this method.
Progressive Cadence Detection
Film-based content, which originated at 24 frames per second, is broadcast at 50 or 60Hz. Anchor Bay’s Progressive Cadence Detection can lock on to the original 3:2 cadence in the broadcast, reacquiring the original 24 frames per second. This signal can then be output at a source-locked 24Hz eliminating the judder that existed in the original broadcast signal. Progressive Cadence Detection can be used with 480p, 576p, 720p and 1080p input signals.
RightRate
Anchor Bay’s RightRate technology converts the input frame rate to the optimal display frame rate without causing ‘tearing’ in the output frame. Anchor Bay’s high performance frame rate conversion also supports converting film sources from 24 frames per second to 60 frames per second for NTSC format and from 25 frames per second to 50 frames per second for PAL/SECAM format.
AutoCUE-C
Anchor Bay’s AutoCUE-C technology automatically detects and removes chroma artifacts that are caused by incorrect upsampling of the chroma (color) signals by MPEG decoders in DVD players and satellite receivers. These artifacts are especially noticeable as horizontal streaks in images with highly saturated colors. When the artifacts are removed, the resulting picture quality is significantly improved, providing a much clearer and true-to-life image.
Precision AV Lip-Sync
Anchor Bay’s Precision AV Lip-Sync technology is designed to automatically delay the audio signal to match the video processing delay in other Anchor Bay products. As a result, the AV Lip-Sync problem that is caused by video processing delay is eliminated. If required, the audio delay can also be further adjusted (up to 200 milliseconds) to correct any AV Lip-Sync problem that may be already be present in the AV source.
Game Mode
Game Mode can reduce the amount of video delay to less than a single frame. In many competitive processors the effects of applying complex algorithms to the video image results in upwards of a seven frame delay. This can inhibit the real-time performance for gamers who want instantaneous response to react to stimuli and to realize peak performance from their application. The VRS Precision Deinterlacing Game Mode will reduce frame delay down to slightly less than one frame of video.

Best thing about vacations is that they give you the perfect reason to go out and buy new toys!!! I’m heading to Costa Rica for 8 days of adventure and after looking fondly at my Canon SD850IS, the first thing I thought was, “I’m going to need more space”. The one mistake I made when I purchased my 2GB SD card was underestimating how much video I’d take with this little camera (which this camera is surprisingly good at).
With the activities we have planned for CR, I needed to be certain that I’d have enough memory to capture all those crazy adventures (Volcano hikes, zip lines, canopy tours, white water rafting, scuba diving etc…)
* So how much does it store?
At max resolution here are the capacities:
Pictures: 8MP at Superfine resolution: 4,496 pictures
Video: 640×480, 30FPS, 127 minutes and 38 seconds!!!
30 seconds of continuous shooting with no flash at max res: 34 pictures (Canon claims 1.4 shots per second). Please note, I got identical results with the my Sandisk Extreme III 2GB SDHC
* Transfer Performance
Test Bed: 340MB Video File, USB hub, on my desktop (AMD X2)…Each test was repeated 5 times and the average taken (what can I say, I’m OCD :D)
Using the supplied SD card reader: 17 seconds (20 mb/sec)
Connecting directly to the camera: 50 seconds (6.8 mb/sec - i.e. in line with the Class 6 rating)
Using the SD card reader and going through my laptop (IBM T41P): 29 seconds (11.7 mb/sec)
In other words, depending on your hardware it meets and/or exceeds the speed rating.
I also own a Sandisk Extreme III 2GB SDHC card, which boasts a faster transfer rate. The only test above that it performed better in were transfers to my laptop (22 seconds vs 29). It would appear based on the transfer rates that the camera was the limiting factor, but with the supplied SD card reader, that limitation is a non issue.
I’m lucky - I found this card on a lark, and the day after I bought it, the price rose $30. Considering this product was announced Nov ‘07 and just released, not to mention the competitor’s are priced about $50-$100 more, the price I paid for it was just too good to pass up.
So with all that said:
Pros:
- Price (~150mb/$)
- Performance is in line (and meets or exceeds) with its class rating
- 2 HOURS of VIDEO WOOO!!!!
Cons:
- It’s new and unproven. The only question that remains is whether or not it will hold up over time…if anything changes in the next month…I’ll let you know 
Enjoy!!!
Transcend 4GB SDHC CARD (SD 2.0 SPD Class 6)
Transcend 4GB SDHC CARD (SD 2.0 SPD Class 6)
Technical Details
- Storage Capacity - 4GB
- Technology - Secure Digital High-Capacity(SDHC)
- Manufacturer Warranty - 2 Years
- - Compatible with all SDHC-labeled host devices (not compatible with standard SD)
- - Easy to use, plug-and-play operation
Product Description
SDHC (SD High-Capacity) is the new generation of SD cards (Version 2.0). Formatted in FAT32, SDHC cards reach a maximum capacity of 32GB and can fulfill the high-capacity demand of the new SDHC devices such as Casio Exilim Z1000/Z600/S600 cameras, Panasonic DMC-L1 camera, and HP printer A/B. Now you can enjoy a high-quality digital life and store all of your MP3 music files, high-resolution pictures, and video clips in your SDHC card.
Product Description
Transcend Secure Digital High-Capacity (SDHC) Class 6 Card is fully compatible with SDA 2.0 specification. It is suitable for SDHC compliant devices, SLC flash chip with High Speed transfer rate. Perfect for high-end digital devices.
The Transcend 4GB SDHC CARD (Class 6) is a great card for the price. I was at first a little skeptical about the brand, but I buy way too many memory cards to ignore a good price when I see one. And I’m happy to report that I’ve experienced decent performance and reliability issues with this card. That’s as compared to other cards I own including SanDisk, PNY and Kingston.
As long as your devices are compatible with the SDHC format, this card is a good buy. 4 GB is a nice size though I do prefer 8 GB capacity for high capacity storage.
The class 6 speed is the fastest speed available in mass market SDHC cards. Class 6 guarantees minimum transfer speeds of 6 MBs, but I’ve gotten speeds up to 20Mbs! That makes this card perfect for storing pictures in RAW image formats.
The Class 6 speed is on par with the Sandisk Extreme III cards that on average are about $15 to $20 more per card. If you don’t have an SDHC reader, you may opt to get the package with a reader included to download your pics. If not you can just transfer your pics directly from your camera with your card still inserted. An SDHC card reader can be bought separately if your PC doesn’t have a compatible slot.
General SDHC and SD Card Tips
There are a few tips that I’ve learned the hard way through buying TOO MANY different memory cards.
1. Make sure your device is compatible with the card! Even in regular SD cards, some older electronics aren’t compatible with that large of a size (2 GB). In terms of SDHC cards, make sure your camera or other device is SDHC compatible. SDHC is different from regular SD and only newer devices tend to have built-in compatibility
2. Once you install this in your camera or device, you will generally want to format the card with your compatible device’s interface. That is because the standard formats for certain devices, particularly Canon, are different from the factory installed format
3. Just like your devices, most computer SD card readers are not compatible with the SDHC format. So use a card reader or download the pictures via USB connection to the camera with the card still installed.
4. For some reason, placing the card in the locked position allows some older laptops to still read it. This is just to be used in a pinch however, and it won’t apply to all systems
5. If you did not properly format your card, you may be able to save things to it and then have them “disappear.” If this happens to you, make sure you use the software recovery tools BEFORE you try to save anything else to your card. That way, you can retrieve your images without over-writing them.
6. Make sure you know what you are going to use this card for. Once you have set up everything and ensured it’s all compatible, you still have to decide on speed. If you are using this for storing RAW images instead of JPEGs or HD video, step up to the faster class 6 speed format if you can afford it.
7. If you are going to pay more for a faster speed, make sure your device can benefit from it. I’ve read, for example, that Kodak cameras are set to a fixed voltage and cannot go faster than standard speed. So the extra cash spent on Class 4, 5, or 6 is basically wasted.
Conclusion
It’s great to have several extra cards on hand just in case. This 4 GB card is a nice performer. If you have a high capacity camera (10 Megapixels or more) and are storing videos or RAW images, the extra cash for the 8GB card is worth it. Or you may want to step up to the larger 16 GB size that is now available.
Enjoy!
