DigiBox SCV-1 TV Standards Converter With composite & S-Video In and Out

DigiBox SCV TV Standards Converters provide cost-effective conversion between TV Standards which may have different Line and Field rates such as PAL and NTSC. They all provide Composite Input and Output whilst the more expensive units also provide S-Video (YC). All our DigiBox SCV Standards Converters have sufficient memory to provide proper interpolation between frames providing results that look as good as units costing many times the amount. This should be borne in mind when comparing with other low-cost devices which may convert between different frame and line rates by duplicating or missing out frames and / or lines resulting in movement such as camera pans, which are often jumpy, pictures in the wrong aspect ratio and poor colour rendition.

The DigiBox SCV-1 provides Composite plus S-Video Input and Output plus a non-interlaced PC output for display at 60Hz. It converts from NTSC 3.58, NTSC 4.43, PAL-B/G/I, PAL-M, PAL-N and SECAM with auto-selection, to NTSC 3.58, NTSC 4.43, PAL-B/G/I, PAL-M and PAL-N which is pushbutton-selectable. It has 4Mb field memory to give good motion interpolation whilst a digital comb filter decodes input video for optimum resolution.
