Lumagen VisionHDQ
The Lumagen VisionHDQ is a new model to sit just below the ProHDP in the range, offering a
more digitally oriented experience. The Vision HDQ sacrifices the ProHDPs significant
amount of analogue inputs for a bank of four DVI-I sockets. Four YUV/RGB inputs become
just two, with only one capable of RGB Scart input. And 2 assignable s-video inputs
becomes one fixed s-video input. There is also just a single SDI. However the gain is
four HDCP DVI-I inputs (still 576i/480i compatible), and a DVI and 5 BNC analogue output.
This new model being geared toward those who will be early adopters of HDCP protected
sources such as Sky HD, Blu Ray Disc, PS3.
As with the HDP and ProHDP the specification of the HDQ is far more advanced than
originally planned. Unlike every other processor in even similar price ranges, all
models in the Lumagen range now support per-pixel 1080i deinterlacing. This is a
feature usually reserved for HQV or VXP powered video processors, however Lumagen
have simply written their own code which can sit aside the Silicon Image processor.
The VisionHDP, HDQ and ProHDP also sport film-mode detection for 1080i sources, a
necessity to correctly deinterlace 1080i movies to full frame 1080p before up or
downscaling to the display's native resolution. Again something only seen on processors
costing far more...
Additional features of the VisionHDQ:
Inputs: 2 SDI, 1 Composite, 1 S-Video, 1 SD/HD Component, 1 SD/HD Component + Composite or RGBScart, and 4 DVI (with HDCP)
Each Composite and Component Input can be combined for RGB + Sync Input from STB
