Nope, sorry, didn't understand that bit.
(thanks to many chips working together to improve chroma bandwidth).
Is this similar to the Faroudja bandwidth expansion? If so, cool!
It was originally a full scaler yes but the output cards has been removed and motherboard changed to one that is just a doubler with many fewer chips and regulators.
Does this mean that it's still a progressive output?
Now it only does 5xBnc composite input and 1xS-video output.
I think Laserman mentioned something about the S-video and RCA connectors not giving accurate 75 ohms. Would it be a good idea to use 2 separate BNC plugs + shielded cables instead of the standard S-Video connectors?
Will also try a very powerful Proc amp, Elite video Bvp plus for the pre SE sets to see if i can color-correct (JSC especially) and fix it up before input on the DC-30
I've seen posts from people doing that on another video forum which looked interesting. Isn't there a danger of overdoing the adjustment which cannot be undone in post?

mmmmm, Meridian, mmmmmmmmm
in total level and on dampened spikes also got the picture a bit better.
Holy crap Batman!
