HDFury X3

The HDfury1 was RGBHV output only with a DVI-D input.

The HDfury2 introduced component (Y/Pb/Pr) output support with HDMI 1.1/1.2 input, colour depth upscaling to render 16-235 as 0-255, stereo sound output in both optical and analog, and supported third party accessories support on its output. The HDfury2 had an RGB output similar to the HDfury1 but with extended colour depth range for better colours.

For the HDfury X3, the component features from HDfury2 were kept while the RGB and audio output were completely re-worked and improved. We are now extremely proud to announce that the LEFT SHIFT issue in RGB mode is NO MORE! The HDfury3 allows users to shift the picture LEFT/RIGHT at will through push buttons. The colour depth upscaling feature is now also user selectable (ON/OFF via DIP switch). The HDfury X3 also features 4 customizable EDID banks, two of which may be used to limit the output resolution to 1080i out of the box (again via DIP switches). A very useful feature for anyone with a display that supports 1080i but not 1080p and has sources that do not offer manual setting of the output resolution. Also included are two HDMI 1.3 inputs with Deep Colour support and MANUAL or AUTO switching. Owners of fussy RGB displays will also be happy to learn that the H/V syncs may also now be force to either positive or negative via DIP switch. The RGB pixelclock bandwidth is greatly improved with 225Mhz support (1080p/72 is now perfectly resolved)!
For information on how to set these options see our HDFury X3 User Manual.

HDFury X3 – DAC (Digital-Analog-Converter) with 2x HDMI-A input converted to VGA (YCbCr / RGBHV).

2x HDMI input – 1x VGA / Component Output 1080p + digital and analog sound

Expand your monitor or projector with an analog VGA connection (YCbCr / RGBHV) to two HDMI FullHD 1080p interfaces.

The HDFury X3 draws the full potential from your screen and / or projector, up to resolutions of FullHD /1080p!

By expanding to two HDMI interfaces, you can connect two HDMI-capable players, such as a PlayStation or Xbox but also Blu-Ray player or satellite receiver, to your display device simultaneously.

The HDFury X3 is compatible with any HD capable player and can be easily switched between the two HDMI sources.

Features of hdfury x3 :

– Supports uncompressed Dolby Digital TrueHD / DTS Master Audio HD audio sources

– Perfect image centering in component and VGA mode

– From the included VGA and VGA to RGB extensions, the output signal can be extended or converted

– The combo jack output functions simultaneously as digital S/PDIF (optical) and analog 3.5mm jack output

– The HDFury X3 solves several “black screen” problems based on HDCP incompatibilities
