Posts: 12814 From: Annapolis, MD Registered: Dec 1999 posted 02-18-2015 05:56 AM                     The answer they gave you...even then...was wrong, providing that the information they received was the same.  |  IP: Logged Marco Giustini Film God Posts: 2713 From: Reading, UK Registered: Nov 2007 posted 02-18-2015 03:50 PM                     this is not against Christie - the guys there are just superb - but more in general: the toughest words to hear are "I don't know, I'll find that out and let you know". I always appreciate when someone says that.  |  IP: Logged Scott Waters Film Handler Posts: 2 From: Milford, CT United States Registered: Nov 2015 posted 11-30-2015 04:06 PM                     Great forum with lots of good info. We have a 4220 trying to get alternate 4K content. Only way still with and IMS?  |  IP: Logged Scott Waters Film Handler Posts: 2 From: Milford, CT United States Registered: Nov 2015 posted 02-18-2016 12:50 PM                     Anyone have any additional insight? Would it be possible to hook the AJA Kona card up to the CP4220 to make it work? https://www.aja.com/en/products/kona-3g  |  IP: Logged Cloud Zhou Film Handler Posts: 4 From: Brisbane, Queensland, Australia Registered: Jan 2016 posted 03-31-2016 01:01 AM                     quote: Steve Guttag Pete...not to contradict you here BUT...the Solaria 4K can definitely run 4K via the 4SDI inputs on the proper cards. However, the restrictions are on the frame rates BT.1769 is supported. Frame rates of 23.98, 24, 25, 29.97 and 30 Hz are it though. You'll find similar restrictions on Barco's quad-link option as well (and I think NEC but I have not investigated that one). Steve is correct. Quad 3G SDI is available for Christie series two 4K projectors. But the maximum resolution for alternative content is 3840x2160 and no more than 30hz. This is written in Christie manual. My question here now is could I use dual CP4230 with quad 3G SDI inputs to show passive stereo contents? Has anyone had similar configuration and it worked?  |  IP: Logged
