The new model DeckLink HD Extreme 3D has new features such as HDMI 1.4 capture and playback, plus a new re-clocker in the SDI inputs for capture from very poor quality SDI inputs.

The most exciting upgrade on this new model is the new HDMI 1.4, which lets you work with the latest televisions and cameras for full resolution 3D. The previous model of DeckLink HD Extreme handles 3D via SDI as two streams for full resolution video, however the HDMI needed to use line by line, side by side or top and bottom modes, which are half resolution 3D formats. This limited the 3D quality on the HDMI connections.

Now with the new HDMI 1.4 built in, you can get full resolution 3D via the frame packing method. Of course the other 3D formats are still supported for pre HDMI 1.4 televisions and cameras. This is an exciting new feature and keeps DeckLink HD Extreme at the cutting edge of video technology.

The new DeckLink HD Extreme 3D features single and dual channel SDI capture and playback for both regular 2D and new 3D stereoscopic workflows! Includes dual link 3 Gb/s SDI, HDMI and analog component/composite/s-video connections. Work in SD, HD, 3 Gb/s HD-SDI and 2K in 4:2:2 or 4:4:4. Also includes AES and analog balanced audio, 16 channel SDI audio, genlock and deck control. SDI, HDMI and analog component works in all video formats up to 1080p60. Includes broadcast quality up, down and cross conversion, plus built in SD/HD internal keyer.
