3 Overview
The Kramer VP-730 is a 9-input Proscale™ Presentation Switcher / Scaler. Each audio
input can accept balanced stereo audio or digital S/PDIF audio. The VP-730 has a
balanced stereo audio output and a digital S/PDIF audio output. The VP-730 scales any
composite, s-Video (Y/C), component video (YPbPr), HDMI or computer graphics video
signal, as well as jpeg files (via USB) up or down to a selectable graphics or HDTV
output resolution and provides glitch-free switching between sources through FTB™
(fade-thru-black) switching technology. The output signal is available simultaneously on
two 15-pin HD computer graphics video (PC) connectors and on an HDMI connector.
The VP-730 features include:

processing represents the state-of-the-art in video processing technology,
with the highest quality de-interlacing, noise reduction, and scaling
performance for both standard-definition and high-definition signals
• Fade-Thru-Black (FTB™) Switching - the video fades to black and then the
new input fades from black for glitch-free and smooth switching. The output
signal provides constant sync so the display never glitches
• K-IIT XL™ Picture-in-Picture Image Insertion Technology - ultra stable picture-
in-picture, picture-and-picture, and split screen capability. Any video source
