URSA with ATEM switchers

PostSat Jun 27, 2015 10:04 am

Hi,
is there a way to use an URSA with an ATEM which we are currently using in 720p50? As far as I know the blackmagic updowncross converts only 1080i to 720p and URSA only outputs 1080p.

Thanks!

I know, but we are using other 720p sources, so we have to stick with that resolution.
I just found on the manual that the BM updowncross converter accepts 1080 50p so I hope it will work.

Hi Fabio,

The only device that will down convert 2160p50 to 720p50 will be the Teranex Express.

The Mini Converter UpDownCross will only be able to convert from 1080p50 to 720p50.

Thanks Darrell! I think will be less expensive converting from the 1080p output of the ursa
Kay sadly it's hard to find here in Italy, but looks like a good alternative.
