TVOne Video Switchers
« on: May 15, 2008, 08:18:48 AM »

Does anyone use a TVOne video switcher? Do they seem to be a pretty solid product? We are looking at the C2-2250 for 2 computers, an HD video input and a few S-video/comp inputs. Has anyone used this one specifically?

Thanks,
Brian

I have had good luck with TVOne products and for many dedicated use applications they offer some very cost effective solutions.

However, I would double check your sources and the inputs on that particular model.  I'm not sure what you mean by a "few" composite and S-Video inputs, the CC-2250 has two of each.  And what format are your HD source and the computers?  To switch two computers and an HD source with the CC-2250 you'd apparently have to have one computer as analog RGBHV (VGA), the other computer as DVI-D and the HD source as component video, does that work with your sources?

Front panel control may also be a little awkward with that unit as it has seven inputs and only four input selection buttons, apparently three of the buttons toggle between two inputs.  So push "RGB/YUV" once to get the HD15 RGB input and then push it again to get the component video input.  The same with the two sets of S-Video and composite video inputs, push "YC/CV1" once to get S-Video 1 and again to get composite video 1.  If you are using a control system or computer to control the unit this may not be a problem as I believe those allow for direct input selection of all seven inputs, but if you plan to use front panel control then switching could be a bit confusing.

The device itself probably works well but you might want to verify that it works well for your application.

We have had a C2-7260 for almost a year and love it. We also purchased the CC-300 control panel to switch. That makes it a lot easier.

E-mail me if you have more questions.

We're using a pair of C2-1350s for switching and edge blending - been a few updates which have improved the blending but generally very reliable.
