^Äçìí=íÜÉ=ibaJmol
The LED-PRO is a powerful all-in-one signal processor that accepts a wide range of video
input signals, and processes them to drive Barco LED displays. The LED-PRO allows you
to scale visual sources and mix them in multiple ways while still maintaining superb picture
quality.
LED-PRO is the ideal solution for converting RGB, HDTV, component, S-video, composite
(NTSC, PAL and SECAM), SDI, DVI, and HDSDI for use with Barco LED walls.
LED-PRO has an advanced feature set that includes universal inputs, aspect ratio
conversion, memory presets, test patterns, source lock, picture adjustments, motion
adaptive de-interlacing, and 3:2 and 2:2 pulldown detection. Refer to the “Features
