Does the MATRIX PRO support Standard Definition SD video?

AV Bridge MATRIX PRO Frequently Asked Questions Since there is currently no front panel "lock out" feature, do the video and audio mute/un-mute buttons give any indication of whether they are on or off? A) Yes, the front panel buttons for muting and un-muting are blue during normal, un-muted use. They will light up in a red color instead of blue if they are in the Mute mode. The UI and the front panel buttons both act in real time and can be actuated or unactuated by either interface, again in real time. There are multiple control abilities for this unit, RS-232, Telnet, front panel, UI served via webpages as well as hardware triggers and software triggers. Which take priority? A) All control functions can operate simultaneously, and are active. They act as our camera controllers and CCUs act in real time. The most recent command will be executed regardless of the command or trigger source. Does the MATRIX PRO support Standard Definition (SD) video? A) It does not. With the abundance of cheap and easy SD to HD converters available, we chose to process only HD video in the MATRIX PRO. We suggest using 1080P video through the switcher and using the output processing to scale down video to resolutions below 1080P if required by Streaming or Program buses. There are readily available inexpensive scalers available in the market to process input or output signals if required. When performing a firmware update, will the configuration and settings be lost or will it require a factory reset? A) Currently, firmware updates will "wipe" any configuration settings which have been programmed. The MATRIX PRO will eventually have the ability to export and import any Macros which have been programmed as trigger events, so the time required for duplicating room configurations for multiple implementations should be significantly reduced. At that point, we expect to prevent any firmware updates from erasing unit configurations.
