Will the units allow gaming?
The HD Video Streamer is not optimised for fast moving gaming applications. The
encoding and compression techniques used are targeted at efficient and stable video
transmission which introduces a small latency (delay) between the source and the
remote location.
•
How long do the units take to configure?
A unit will typically take 1 minute to self-configure and connect.
•
Can I use the streamer for standard definition video?
Yes the Video Streamer will transmit both HD and SD video
.
•
Can I transmit to mobile devices?
This feature is under development future software upgrades should provide this
capability
•
Can I show different channels on the loop through and the remote TV?
The Video Streamer operates as a HDMI extender (repeater), the transmitter unit has
a single HDMI input hence the units will always display the same content on the loop
through port and the remote location. The loop through TV can still display from a
different input (HDMI 2, SCART or other RF) if required.
•
How important is the quality of the HDMI cable connecting the units to
the Source or HDTV?
There is a large selection of HDMI cables on the market. It is a question for debate
whether the most expensive cables offer significant improvement over lower priced
cables in a domestic environment. What can be said is that maintaining a good
ground throughout the system is critical and that the inexpensive cables often have a
less effective ground connection which will impact the performance in some
configurations and in some extreme cases will prevent the system working correctly.
•
How do I measure the signal strength between the units?
Power cycle the receiver: The received signal strength is displayed on the remote
HDTV when the unit reconnects after a power cycle. The colour coded indicator bar
will help provide an indication of signal strength
.

What is HDCP?
High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection: Intel Corporation developed copy
protection; Implemented through a combination of authentication and encryption to
