Will both the SDI and HDMI outputs work ...

Will both the SDI and HDMI outputs work simultaneously? So, input HDMI and output both, or input SDI and output both?
Asked by: Ron
Unfortunately no. You would only be able to output one at a time with Datavideo DAC-45 4K.

question

Can the Datavideo 4K Up/Down Cross Converter do ROI Scaling?
Asked by: Gill
No, DAC-45 will not do ROI scaling. Please look at our KMU-100 4K Multi-camera processor if you are looking for ROI scaling. KMU-100 allows you to take 4 ROI SDI outputs from one 4K camera.
