Eliminate extra interface clutter and menu bars and extract only the portion of the computer screen you want.

OG-ROI-HDMI is fully compatible with the free Ross DashBoard application, offering interactive selection of a Region of Interest from the incoming computer signal. You have full control over how that region is scaled to the output resolution using AJA’s high quality scaling algorithms for the cleanest picture quality possible. 

Take full control of aspect ratio, image rotation and frame rate conversion with on-screen controls in the DashBoard software that shows you what your source and output will look like, including the formats that are coming in and the choices you have made for the signal going out.

It is also possible to expand output options and create a large, synchronized video wall display. The workflow diagram shows 9 x OG-ROI-HDMI utilized in a rackframe to produce a video wall of 9 SDI monitors. Control over each OG-ROI-HDMI is provided via ethernet to the DashBoard. Each computer source is connected to an OG-ROI-HDMI input with the region of interest output via SDI. Simple controls and connectivity for the OG-ROI-HDMI can be used to create sophisticated and complex video wall presentations. 

You're able to easily create highly effective and engaging displays by using additional OG-ROI-HDMI openGear converters. By utilizing three OG-ROI-HDMI openGear converters in the appropriate rackframe you can feed three display monitors side by side, each rotated to portrait mode. By using the HDMI pass through of the OG-ROI-HDMI, the HDMI routed image is in sync, with each OG-ROI-HDMI providing the necessary region of interest output via SDI. Settings for each of the OG-ROI-HDMI openGear converters is provided via ethernet control through an ethernet switch. The result is a visually exciting and creative way to feed display content.

OG-ROI-HDMI accepts 2-channel analog audio from the 2x 3-pin terminal blocks connectors or embedded 8-channel audio from an HDMI input. The audio source and routing can be selected in the DashBoard software and is embedded into the SDI output. This allows computer audio to be embedded within the SDI signal for easy, synchronized routing.

DashBoard software offers quick and convenient configuration and control of openGear cards on macOS, Windows, and Linux.

This diagram shows six openGear OG-FiDO-R-12G-ST cards being used in a OG-X-FR rack frame situated close to the Production Gallery, highlighting the high density capability of the openGear platform. These six openGear OG-FiDO-R-12G-ST cards are connected via fiber lines to two studio sets, both of which could be up to 10km away from the Production Gallery. The studio sets each contain three 12G-SDI cameras connected to three FiDO-T-12G-ST Mini-Converters, which provide the 12G-SDI to fiber ST conversion. The Production Gallery receives 6 discrete camera feeds as 12G-SDI, via the OG-FiDO-R-12G-ST, driving the gallery video monitors with ultra low latency.
