Digital Forecast Bridge X_TS V3 unit works very good. I had a slight issue of getting color bars (test signal) onto the HDMI output port. I contacted kameratools.com spoke to Technical Support and the issue was resolve successfully over on the phone in 2 minutes. it was just a menu setting issue. Now the unit can feed color bars to HDMI out connector.
