How is the video quality since the machine does not take SDI cables?

The clearest, Im shooting in HD at 1920x1080 using component cables the better the SDI point blank period.

I am running the cable straight from my desktop PC across the room to my Sony flat screen w/o a booster. I have not experienced any problems thus far. Picture is clear, bright, and w/o degradation. I'm guessing that equipment types may be a source of any reported problems; For what it's worth, I am using a PNY NVIDIA GeForce GT 630 Graphics card.

I have been tweaking my new set's picture for 3 days now. The high def is terrific but I only get 12 channels of HD. Since 50% of my viewing will be standard def cable channels, I am very disappointed that I can't get the SD picture to a level of acceptability. (I feel compelled to go to another room and watch non-HD programs on my old 36" CRT.) Any suggestions on setting changes for SD programs? A lot of the screen is blurry and pixelated (with or without the 120-Hz on).

It does not come natively with extra hdmi or dvi connectors on the graphics card, I've heard you can play games with the usb to dvi converter but none of its ports are usb 3.0 and for watching movies it MAY cut it, but not likely for games.The core is fast enough but Toshiba (in my experience) also have heating issues and you may also push the machine to a shorter lifespan if you run the cpu's at max for games or Blu-ray level content (since an external blue ray is an option)Duf

Hi Scott, Well, after installing several of the cameras, I have found the picture quality lacking in general. I installed with both the cables they supplied as well as serpentine POC coaxial cable in some areas rather than what they supplied due to distances I needed to run lines, and both are not good pictures. These are being used in a church environment, and we have a lot of interference from wireless devices and networks, so possibly affecting things here. May be a component/driver strength issue or an interference issue...not sure If using for home/smaller office, it may perform better. As for our environment, I am migrating to network based POE box cameras since DVR's have just not worked that well, and we've had numerous. I have had to replace them pretty much annually...hard drive crashes, firmware problems, power/fan problems, etc. Have only had this one a few months, so no problems thus far. Long range costs are just not worth replacing DVRs so often for our purposes any more. Sorry don't have better answer for your specific question.

Thanks Brian.I'll stick with my e260, I can use a 3rd party program to manage my current machine.

I would try a new Video in cable, if problem still exists check the hdmi cable. If not a cable problem, return it as the conversion chip may be bad.

Ditto for the Cablevision hd box - much better video using the component video inputs. Thanks for sharing.

I did not notice much degradation of the video. However, I have 600tvl cameras so they aren't great to begin with. Also, if you are not running it along a way, make sure you support the cable, mine sagged and finally snapped under the weight of it spanning a 75ft gap from my house to our chicken coop.

I have a mkv that is a 1080p rip, plays 100% fine over SMB on CAT5e wired gigabit and tips in at 15GB, not as far as you wanted to know, but it doesn't struggle for me. Hope this helps a little.

Hi, I've just tested the camera and for my needs it ok. I have logitech pro 9000 on my desktop that can stream hd video but the picture quality depends on internet connection. I use my laptop when I travel and I've never connected to network that can stream hd video. So the picture was good enough to be seen, the sound is ok. To sum up: For communication via video is good enough. If you want crisp picture you'll want to buy extra camera.

Same problem i have faced... the higher resolution video is jerky (stutters) while being played on a very fast computer. I tried copying it to my hard drive so that SD-Memory card reading lag time is been reduced, but to no benefit.

Upon receipt of my Mac Mini, I immediately hooked it to our Panasonic 32" HDTV. It's a CRT, about 3 years old, with a DVI input. The picture is fuzzy, by computer monitor standards, but usable if all you want to do is watch video. In fact, video quality (using QuickTime) is quite good. Most of the videos I watch are Divx, with a resolution of 624x352, or better. They look about as good as DVDs. And QT gives an easy way to make them fill the screen. I copied the Front Row remote commands to my universal remote, allowing me to pause/play and forward/reverse the program without touching a mouse. So far, the computer has been flawless. It hasn't yet been connected to a real computer monitor. Also, I bought a large external HD and that's where I keep all the videos.

Yes, I don't use it at all for video, so I cannot tell the quality but the port is there...

Yes, but you have to confirm that the HD-SDI camera you choose can be set either by switches or an on-screen menu to output one of the following HDMI 1.3 output resolution: 720P@50HZ, 720P@60HZ, 1080i@50HZ, 1080i@60HZ, 1080P@24HZ, 1080P@25HZ, 1080P@30HZ, 1080P@50HZ, 1080P@60HZ - and of course your "TV MONITOR" must have an HDMI in port.
