4K Diva – User Manual
What version of HDMI does the Diva work with? Do I need HDMI 1.3/1.4a/2.0a/2.0b? Does it matter?
It does not matter. HDfury Diva works with any version of HDMI from 1.0 and up.
Do I need to set anything special in my HDMI source device to set the resolution correctly?
No. The HDfury Diva will be detected as 2160p60 4:4:4 capable device by your source and it will always
accept and process the highest quality stream from your source devices. There is no need to set the
HDMI source to any specific resolution.
Is there any latency (delay) introduced to the signal?
Virtually none. The latency added is in the order of a few pixel clocks only. Nothing noticeable at all.
What about long HDMI cable runs? Can I expect issues?
For 600MHz users must use "high speed" cables, or 600MHz/18Gbps certified, ideally the length should
be between 6ft and 12ft for proper 600MHz/18Gbps pass-thru. For 4K30, 1080p or less almost all cables
are ok. HDfury Diva acts as a HDMI repeater device. So having HDfury Diva in the path will amplify and
recover the signal. You should not need any passive (or active) HDMI amplifiers, especially if you put the
HDfury Diva in the middle of your cable run. If you previously had to use an amplifier, the HDfury Diva
can most likely take its place. The HDfury Diva has been used with 50 foot (and longer) HDMI cables
without issues including copper, active or fiber solutions.
How are the new lossless audio formats via HDMI input handled? E.g. DTS-HD/MA and DD/E-AC3: Are
they stripped down to DTS core or Dolby Digital respectively to fit the requirements of the S/PDIF
standard?
Lossless audio is transmitted through HDMI output only. HDfury Diva does not compress or otherwise
downconvert the incoming audio. Only stereo and 5.1 sound can be output via SPDIF output. The analog
output supports stereo only.
How do I hook up the audio from the Diva ?
The Diva has both analog and digital (TOSLINK) audio output in one connector labeled "SPDIF + L/R". It's
a 2-in-1 connector meaning that you can plug in either a 3.5mm stereo analog jack or a digital mini-
TOLINK (3.5mm mini-jack) cable and get stereo analog sound or 5.1 Dolby/DTS digital sound out of the
Diva . See further below for pictures of both types of connectors/cables.
