tvONE C2-6104A – CORIO2 4-Window DVI-U Multiviewer HDCP

Product Overview

The tvONE C2-6104A is a four-window multiviewer and picture-in-picture processor built on tvONE's CORIO2 technology, designed for control rooms, broadcast monitoring walls, and multi-source display installations. It accepts five HDCP-compliant DVI-U/HDMI inputs and places up to four independently scaled and positioned windows on a single DVI-I output. Each window runs its own dedicated CORIO2 scaler, enabling full PIP flexibility with independent sizing, positioning, and layer control. The unit fits in a standard 1RU rack enclosure and supports analog signals including composite and S-Video via the DVI-U connectors.

Product Description

Each of the five DVI-U inputs accepts DVI-I digital signals, DVI-A analog signals (RGBHV/YUV/YPbPr/YC/CV via optional HD-15 or breakout adaptor), and HDMI signals — all with full HDCP compliance. DVI-D resolutions up to 1920x1200@60 Hz and 1080p are supported, while analog DVI-A resolutions extend to 2048x2048 at virtually any refresh rate. The fifth input serves as either a background source or a cascade input from another C2-6104A, allowing a single additional unit to double the window count to eight. Four built-in still image stores each hold up to ten user-loadable graphic images that can replace any live input. High-performance motion-adaptive de-interlacing with noise reduction processes interlaced sources (525i, 625i, 720p, 1080i, 1080p) correctly in each window. HDMI audio can be embedded, switched independently, or set to follow Window A only. Advanced features include Genlock, Chromakey, Lumakey, and Mixing modes, with variable zoom to 10x and shrink to 10%. Color borders and source labeling identify each window on the display. All settings are stored in non-volatile memory with ten user-defined presets for rapid recall. Control is available via front-panel buttons, RS-232/422/485, or Ethernet, and the unit is fully compatible with the CORIO Tool Suite and third-party control systems.

Key Features

• Four Independent CORIO2 Scaling Engines — Each window has its own dedicated scaler, so all four windows can display different input resolutions simultaneously without any quality compromise.
• Five DVI-U/HDMI Inputs with Full HDCP — DVI-U connectors accept DVI-I digital, DVI-A analog, composite, and S-Video signals; all inputs and the output are fully HDCP compliant.
• Cascade Input for Expanded Window Count — The fifth input doubles as a background or cascade port; connecting a second C2-6104A adds four more windows without additional display outputs.
• DVI-D Output to 1920x1200 / 1080p@60 — Single DVI-I output drives HD monitors, video walls, and projectors at standard resolutions up to 1920x1200.
• Analog DVI-A to 2048x2048 — Analog component support extends to 2048x2048 at virtually any refresh rate, covering high-resolution legacy sources.
• Motion-Adaptive De-interlacing with Noise Reduction — Handles interlaced YUV, YPbPr, YC, and CV sources across all four windows.
• Four Still Image Stores — Each store holds one of ten user-loadable images, usable as window content or background graphics.
• Chromakey, Lumakey, and Mix Modes — Advanced compositing allows any window to be keyed over another with variable priority, plus fade transitions between sources.
• HDMI Audio Embedding and Switching — Audio can follow any window or be fixed to Window A; audio follows the selected source on input switches.
• 10 User-Defined Presets — Recall complete layout configurations directly from the front panel or external control system.

Typical Applications

• Broadcast master control and monitoring walls requiring multi-source display
• Security and surveillance operations centers with multiple camera feeds
• Corporate boardrooms displaying multiple collaboration or data sources
• House of worship IMAG systems combining program, confidence, and lyrics feeds
• University lecture capture systems showing multiple presentation sources
• Live event production with simultaneous program, replay, and graphics monitoring
