There is a DVD video player (SAMSUNG DVD/CD/MP3 Player, DVD-s221, CD-r/rw compatible) at each scanner. The DVD player is connected to a video converter box that turns the normal TV video signal (NTSC) into a computer video signal (VGA). This DVD video signal is then connected to the [[biac:experimentalcontrol:kvm|video switch]] so that it can be displayed on a computer monitor or our video projector or video goggle devices. | There is a Blu-Ray video player at each scanner set to a 720p resolution. The Blu-Ray player is connected to the video switcher via a HDMI connection. From the video switcher everything runs into a HDMI->VGA converter and then directly into the projector. This DVD video signal is controlled by the [[biac:experimentalcontrol:hdmi|video switch]] so that it can be displayed on a computer monitor or our video projector or 3D TV. HDMI carries both audio/video over one connection, however, the projector and headphones are two separate signal destinations. To send audio/video to the subject in the scanner, the output of the Blu-Ray player needs to be directed to BOTH the headphones and projector through the video switch software. |
