I know Moome wants to make one (he asked me about it and I said it's a good idea of course Wink). Question is when.... I know it's not even started yet so it could still be 4-6 months (or more).

The idea is to discontinue the older HDMI 1.1/1.2 cards (like the Marquee VIM-HD) and only make HDMI 1.3 cards. The Marquee version will be called the VIM-FULLHD (no surprises there).

with Marquee's being the most popular model out there I hope he doesn't delay the 1.3 card too long. I think the Marquee cards have always been his best seller no?

No such luck I'm afraid, us Marquee owners seem to be a small though dedicated band of brothers;

Nope. Sony is at least 3-4 times more popular if not more. Then the EXT-HD due to the universal nature. The Marquee VIM-HD actually sells very slowly.

I find this hard to believe, i think they sold over 100 last two batches, the second batch took a bit longer but they did sell.

I have the numbers here. Since Summer of last year the Sony IFB-HD sold 46% more than the Marquee VIM-HD. The EXT-HD sold 35% more than the Marquee VIM-HD.

Consider also that Jean (JohnHWman) sold almost as many Sony DVI input cards too prior to Moome starting to sell his and the numbers are even better as many Sony owners bought Jean's card and stuck with it. So Moome was able to sell that many more Sony cards than Marquee cards even though there were a few hundred DVI/HDCP cards already out there. There have been no other Marquee solutions.

Yeah, but, I only bought one card since they were only 1.1/ 1.2 cards. Have been waiting for the 1.3 cards! Will buy 3 when they become available!

I'd also like to get in line for this........the 1.1/1.2 card is pretty good, this one can only be better.

Will it be possible for additional custom resolutions to be added to the EDID on this model?

Thanks, Mark

Moome told me yesterday: 4-6 weeks. I'm waiting for his user manual at which point I'll be putting up an order page. He's out of town for the next 10 days or so, so the order page should be up shortly after that.

For what it's worth, it'll be identical to the Sony IFB-FULLHD card, just specifically for Marquee's.

Porch settings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is there any way you could incorporate them in the new card Moome?

For the marquee and Blu Ray, if you don't run fast retrace you don't get the full picture (pun). If you run fast retrace you get jailbars on the left side. It would be nice if we could run slow retrace and adjust porch settings to avoid jailbars and a video processor or htpc.

Anyone else want this please chime in!!!

I've not played a Blu-Ray through my Marquee yet (got all the necessary bits just not set it all up yet Sad ) but if what you say is indeed correct then Porch settings are a must! If there is any way to implement it Moome then us Marquee owners would be most grateful!

Also, is there a trade-in allowance or discount for us current owners Thumbs Up

True, true.

Looking forward to two HDMI inputs I must admit.
