NovaStar VX1000 Pro LED Video Processor for Rental, Stage and Broadcast LED Screens

The NovaStar VX1000 Pro LED Video Processor is an all-in-one controller that scales, switches and sends video to LED screens of up to 6.5 million pixels. It takes HDMI 2.0, HDMI 1.3, 3G-SDI, 10G fibre and USB inputs and outputs through ten Gigabit Ethernet ports and two 10G fibre ports, in a compact rack-style unit.

It works in three modes: Video Controller for scaling and layers, Fiber Converter and ByPass for the lowest latency. SuperView III processing gives stepless output scaling, and six layers can be created in 4K×2K, 4K×1K or 2K×1K sizes. Up to 256 presets can be recalled with one button. Pixel-level brightness and chromaticity calibration, with NovaLCT and the NovaStar calibration software, improves consistency across the screen. A Genlock input keeps cascaded units in sync, and a dedicated connector supports third-party 3D emitters. Backup between devices, inputs and Ethernet ports, and settings saved after a power interruption, keep the show running.
