## Description

Blackmagic Design Mini Converter UpDownCross HD

Review: Saved my behind. Config the dipswitches upside down and backwards while reading chart - I had a day to prepare for a presentation live stream with a camera I knew wouldn't work with my BMD switcher in 1080P30. This came overnight and I configured it on the job. It worked immediately after the first attempt at setting the dip switches. It's a little confusing when you look at it at first, but once you figure it out, it's plain as day simple. Set the dipswitches upside down, from right to left while looking at the chart. Now I had also ordered a decimator md-hx but it did not arrive in time. I am happy it turned out this way. This little BMD is half the cost and does the trick. Sure, it doesn't have an LCD display, it doesn't have an app to configure it, and some advanced scaling options that the decimater has, but it works for most applications and the setup is indeed fast. It auto detects your input from any format down to 640x480 and up to 1080p60 and outputs to any format from 720 and up to 1080p60. Very useful when incompatible video devices get connected to a switcher.
Review: works perfetly to convert 1080p to 1080i - i work at various bars with video matrix systems and most have some OLD TVs that don't like my HDMI laptop signal (it only outputs 1080p 60 Hz). These old TVs will not detect the signal or go crazy when i connect. Eventually I figured out that they work perfectly with HDMI 1080i (interlaced) signal. So I bought this to convert my laptop HDMI 1080p output to 1080i and they all work perfectly. No dropped signal, no latency...perfect solution.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can i use this to convert a 720p hdmi to 1080i sdi?**
A: Yes you can. Mini Converter UpDownCross HD has the ability to convert any SD or HD video format with up, down, or cross conversion via SDI and HDMI. See page 83 on Blackmagic Converters Manual. 
https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/manuals/Converters/Blackmagic_Converters_Manual.pdf

**Q: The output matches the monitor; which monitor? i will input a laptop hdmi out to 2 different switchers; 1 via hdmi 1 via sdi.**
A: "Output supports EDID of the monitor". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_Display_Identification_Data

This simply means that the converter does not output a fixed format via HDMI, rather it will communicate with the connected display to handshake on what resolution the monitor prefers. If your outputs are going direct to switchers and not to a display/TV, then this should not affect you and converter will simply output what you set it up to do.

**Q: Will this converter let me use my iphone camera or apple tablet camera into atem mini switcher?**
A: Im not sure because the mini switcher allows you to switch video outputs during streaming.  The UpDownCross use one signal and let you distribute that signal through the sdi out and hdmi out..

**Q: Does this device come with a power supply?**
A: the one i ordered through here did

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for broadcasting signal to an older projector
*by J***N on December 14, 2020*

I have 1080p60 coming out of my Blackmagic ATEM Television Studio HD going into my streaming deck but I also wanted to send this signal to another room in the building with an older projector that only does 1080p30i. This is EXACTLY what I needed for that. I could loop out the signal unaffected to my streaming deck and then send it down the hall to the other room in the format that projector needed. The other room is 200 feet away and I have had no issues at all. I did have to go online to get the manual to figure out the dip switches, and it is true that some are not used/needed, but once we figured that out, boom... it worked flawlessly the first time and I hope it will continue for years to come. If it does not, I will update my review as I always do. So if you're reading this and there is no further update, it's still going!
