HIGH END SYSTEMS  We're pleased to be working with High End Systems - the worlds best theatre lights. These arent for everyone - as the name suggests they are not cheap but are the best - no more replacing Chinese moving heads or LEDS every couple of years or climbing the rig weekly to reset or repair. Thes are simply the best. More here, or look at what they can do - Moving video, mounts for 4k projectors - the sky is the limit and they are build to last. More here..

Video scalers are typically found inside consumer electronics devices such as televisions, video game consoles, and DVD or Blu-ray disc players, but can also be found in other AV equipment (such as video editing and television broadcasting equipment). Video scalers can also be a completely separate devices, often providing simple video switching capabilities. These units are commonly found as part of home theatre or projected presentation systems. They are often combined with other video processing devices or algorithms to create a video processor that improves the apparent definition of video signals. In E cinema or smaller projectors, scalers are inbuilt and there is the inherant ability to at least switch from one format from another. On the other hand, D Cinema projectors have no such scaling - it is possible to plug in a HDMI or non cinema source however few adjustments are available and an external scaler is often required. Listed below are a few scalers which we have used and like -
Key Features
As the ideal peripheral for all digital cinema installations, the ACS-2048 is an 8x1 switcher that accepts "universal" input formats, and outputs 12-bit twin DVI at 2048 x 1080 - one of the digital cinema standards. With a high-quality scaler at its core, upconverting any input format is as simple as "auto-acquiring" and selecting the desired input. However, disguised as a switcher, ACS-2048 is really a pathway to new revenue streams for your facility. By enabling "alternate" content to be displayed in the digital cinema resolution, your theater's role as a presentation facility for events, businesses, conventions, town-hall meetings and so much more - becomes a reality.
PVProHD-DC is a state of the art alternate content processor which uses real-time SIMD DSP-based software image processing techniques to effectively re-master the alternate content image in real-time. As well as excellent scaling using 1024-tap scaling filter and superb de-interlacing and aspect ratio conversion, PVProHD-DC performs per-pixel motion adaptive noise reduction to significantly reduce image noise and grain in HD and SD images without causing loss of detail or motion blur. PVProHD-DC can also enhance image clarity through its detail enhancement algorithms and provides a real-time unsharp mask which is able to make near-HD quality from SD sources. PVProHD-DC uses true post-production grade image processing algorithms as used in the production of movies, ensuring best in class picture performance always. HQView-400DC is a cost effective Alternate Content Processor for budget conscious installations. It provides great scaling and de-interlacing and SD noise reduction, as well as detail enhancement and aspect ratio conversion of common sources. PVProHD-DC outputs the Digital Cinema Alternate Content standard format of 2048x1080p so is fully compatible with the alternate content input of leading Digital Cinema 4K and 2K projectors from many manufacturers. HQView400DC outputs 1920x1080p which is also compatible with most leading digital cinema projectors. Christie SKA3d-Audio and video processor Christie® SKA-3D makes alternative content, such as preshow advertising and content from Blu-ray Disc players, gaming consoles, satellite receivers, computers and multiple 2D and 3D sources look and sound as spectacular as feature presentations. This powerful audio and video processor can extract the latest, high-quality, lossless audio from HDMI signals, such as Dolby TrueHD® and DTS-HD Master Audio®, for integrating into cinema audio systems.
