Hello.
I need to capture video signal from the source (cam block) using only DVI output to HDD-recorder which has no digital inputs, it has s-video and composite in's. The source signal is 1920x1080@50p and cannot be changed. I try to use DVI-S-video converter, so I plug HDMI-DVI cable into the cam block, plug the other end to converter and connect it with display (for test) by S-video cable. And I get nothing (photo can be seen here http://img706.imageshack.us/img706/2803/20121122201742.jpg ). Converter works - I've successfully tested it with my PC on 1920x1080p@60p. The specifications say that converter supports 1080@50/60p, but another line says that it supports 1920x1080@60p.
So the questions I want to ask are:
1. Is 1920x1080p _exactly_ the same as 1080p?
2. Can my problem be solved with the converter I have?
3. If no, is there any non-expensive solution?
Thank you.
