Does Extron make a scaler that will do HD and 480i out?

...at the same time?

I'm re-jiggering my G/F's system. I need to take an HD signal, probably 720 P and convert it down to 480i and have 720P sent to the projector.

Does Extron make a box that does this? They make every other one so...

To answer my own question... Extron VSC 700, passes HD and provides downscaled 480i output via composite, S-video and conponent.

I have a Roku 3, OTA ATSC tuner, PS3 and a HDMI switch with L+R audio and the Extron VSC 700
Hooking up to a 32" 480i CRT TV, a SONY D50 CRT projector and a stereo or headphones for sound.

I'll let you know how it goes. Wink

SO

I know have a roku3, PS3, Blueray player and an ATSC tuner hooked up to a 4x2 matrix switcher with Analo audio out then onto an HDfury1, through the Extron VSC 700 and out to the Sony D50 via RGBHV, and Component to the 32" Toshiba CRT.

Works great! I no longer need to switch the PS3 settings from HDMI/HDfury to composite to go back to regular TV. What ever comes out of the HDMI is shown on both the TV and the projector with sound to the TV and to the stereo/headphones.

Now, any good free shite for Roku3?

Forgot to add...there's also a Kimcoder RTC2200 right after the HDFury so:

Sources----HDMI---Switcher-----HDFury-RTC2200---ExtronVSC700---CRT,TV/Projector.

The gamma boost really helps, even on the TV. I am really liking this set up. Very Happy

So Im out at BigLots earlier and they had this RF modulator for $6 bucks, 25 foot èlcheapo RG-59 cable....so I took the composite video off the Extron, and Audio split off out to the the RF modulator along the 25 foot cable to the OTA antenna AUX input and the Zenith ATSC box with Analog pass through....yep, now have Roku 3, PS3 and bluray pipped into the 1985 14 inch Randix TV with the rotary tuner in the bedroom! Awesome!

When I bought the ATSC box I made sure to get one with Analog pass through, though I didnt know why I needed it 5 years ago, now I do! Mr. Green
