Scaling a New Market
2009
DVDO EDGE High-Definition Video Processor
We have always loved the idea of using a scaler but in most cases the quickly changing technology or entrance fee has keep us from installing one in our racks. Then came along the DVDO Edge with scaling up to 1080p24. DVDO has been making great scalers for years and the Edge uses the same hardware as their other models which are several times more expensive.
The Edge looks sexy and the back-lit remote is one of the best we have ever used. Plus it’s a universal remote so there is a good chance it can control the rest of your equipment too. Although the real reason to acquire one is if you have numerous video sources that need to be scaled to the native resolution of your HD display.
With ten inputs (6 HDMI) you can scale, deinterlace, and apply advanced image processing like fine detail enhancement. You even have two HDMI outputs so you can run one directly to the display and the other to the A/V receiver. An elegant interface and wizards make set up a breeze. They also make it easy to configure each input for their optimal performance. We love the split screen feature where one side shows the current image and the other reflects the proposed changes.
Once in a while a product redefines a category. In this case the Edge does just that as it brings the power of expensive scalers to an unheard of price and even has features not found on earlier models.
