Author Topic: AES3 to HDMI Convertor Khushwant Singh Film Handler Posts: 27 From: New Delhi , India Registered: May 2018 posted 06-14-2019 12:10 AM                     Please suggest for AES/EBU to HDMI convertor for IMS 3000  |  IP: Logged Marcel Birgelen Film God Posts: 3357 From: Maastricht, Limburg, Netherlands Registered: Feb 2012 posted 06-14-2019 01:32 AM                     You just want to have just the sound in HDMI? Or will there also be an image component elsewhere? And what channels do you want to put into the HDMI signal? Just a single AES3 channel, the 5.1 channel mix, the 7.1 channel mix or all the channels? Also, how do you want them to be muxed into HDMI? As LPCM channels I suppose?  |  IP: Logged Carsten Kurz Film God Posts: 4340 From: Cologne, NRW, Germany Registered: Aug 2009 posted 06-14-2019 04:40 AM                     I think there is still only this one (for multichannel): http://www.arvus.io/aes-2h.html But it is expensive, you may just as well buy a standard cinema audio processor (at least second hand), or a suitable 6/8ch DAC. I assume you want to use an HDMI/home cinema surround amp with a DCI server? - Carsten  |  IP: Logged Khushwant Singh Film Handler Posts: 27 From: New Delhi , India Registered: May 2018 posted 06-14-2019 11:22 AM                     Thanks Carsten Kurz this is a great help regards  |  IP: Logged Leo Enticknap Film God Posts: 7474 From: Loma Linda, CA Registered: Jul 2000 posted 06-14-2019 03:08 PM                        quote: Carsten Kurz I assume you want to use an HDMI/home cinema surround amp with a DCI server? If that is the object of the exercise and the consumer surround amp has 5.1 or 7.1 analog inputs, a used Dolby DMA8+ is an option. They can be bought pretty cheaply now, and have touch-of-a-button ProLogic decoding, too (not that this should be an issue with DCP audio). The only gotcha is that you'd need to make, or have made for you, a DB25 to 6x or 8x RCA breakout cable.  |  IP: Logged
