What do you have in mind? I have both a Toshiba HD-XA2 HD DVD player, and a Sony BDP-S301. I take the HDMI feed out of each, and put it into the Moome HD-MUX. The HMDI out (from the HD-MUX) goes into the Convergent Designs NanoConnect HDMI to HD-SDI converter. The HD-SDI output from the NanoConnect goes directly into one of the HD-SDI inputs on the Analog Way DVX-8022 BlendZilla scalar/switcher/blender. 1080i and 720p work flawlessly. 1080p/24 is a big PITA. It does not work out of either player, over the HDMI to HD-SDI video chain described above. I do not know if the problem is the Moome HD-MUX, the Convergent Designs NanoConnect, or the DVX-8022. If I had either a Blu-ray or HD DVD player capable of 1080p/24 HD-SDI output that I could feed directly into the DVX-8022 HD-SDI input, I could at least narrow the problem down somewhat. Do you have such a player available you could let me use for testing purposes?

Sounds complicated. I can't wait to see it!  |
No kidding, I would love to see a blend in action, but this $5/gal gas sh*t SUCKS!!! Hell might be $6 by August.

It's $3.95 here right now. I'm sitting on empty and drove by a half dozen gas stations on the way to work. Gonna have to grin and bare it this afternoon. I'm getting much better mileage driving my wife's Civic now though.

I put premium in both cars and paid $4.39/gal, one requires premium the other runs more efficient/better so the extra $.20/gal works out to about the same.

likewise, the DVDO VP50pro scaler can be modified for HD-SDI output to feed the zilla and has dual HD-SDI inputs, that is the way I would go dude, talk about one pure & high-end signal chain 
of course the VP50pro has a nice 1080p/24 output that would be output via HD-SDI and if you have any problems with 1080p/24 from the HD players just send 1080i in and the VP50pro will do a 100% perfect 1080p/24 conversion
you are talking some $$$ there, but.... 
1080p/24 is tricky out of HDMI from alot of the BD/HD players, most of them have to recognize the input device can receive it or not, a big PITA
-Gary |
I would think then that if you could run 1080 p HD-SDI out of the Bluray and into the 'zilla it would be an improvement....
Gary do you mod the b/r players? like a bdp s1 for instance????

I might be there, I won't know for about 3 weeks. If my summer plans for the already booked vacation fall through, then I might do a big old road trip, but I checked, it's 2000 miles each way. I could do it in 3 days..
If the vacation gels in the next 3 weeks though, then I'm out.
Do women ever make up their &^$$#$% mind????

What the helll Mapquest are you using? Langley, BC to Chicago, Il is 2135 miles, 32 hours of driving. It's not like I can drive more than about 15 hours a day... I'd give myself 3 days each way.

I bet it's cheaper to fly... it's at least 300 in gas alone, not counting meals, lodging, etc...

Wow how fast does Google assume you will be driving? IF you could maintain 100Km/h all the way it would be about 35 hours. That doesn't account for construction, driving through lower speed limit towns, sleep or pee breaks. I think google need's to rethink there hour counter.
