VERTEX GLOSSARY / VIDEO TIMINGS

Resolution Support – HDfury Vertex glossary

SD, HD, Full HD and UHD formats within bandwidth, including 480i/p, 576p, 720p up to 120 Hz, 1080i/p, 1440p and 2160p60 (4K120 only as 4:2:0 8-bit).

SIMPLY PUT

Resolution is how many dots (pixels) make up the picture, like 1920×1080 for Full HD.

The Vertex works with almost every size, from old standard-definition up to 4K.

The only rule is that the signal, together with its frame rate and colour format, must fit within 600 MHz.

WITH THE HDFURY VERTEX

Which resolutions does the HDfury Vertex support?

YESAll common SD, HD, Full HD and UHD formats from 480i to 2160p60, plus 1440p and PC modes, as long as the signal fits in 600 MHz. 4K120 only as 4:2:0 8-bit; no HDMI 2.1 formats.

How to use it with the Vertex:

No player setting is needed: the Vertex presents itself as a 2160p60 4:4:4 device (p.104).
Check the incoming resolution on the OLED Info page or the GUI top section (p.19, p.27).
To send a lower resolution to one display, use Auto Scaling; the TOP output can down-convert, e.g. to 1080p60 (p.14).
Keep every format within 600 MHz, including frame rate, chroma and bit depth (p.104).

01 / SIMPLE EXPLANATION

What is it?

The video timing families Vertex can process.

Vertex works across older SD/HD formats through Full HD, 1440p and UHD timings, as long as the complete format remains within bandwidth.

02 / REAL-WORLD USE

Why would you use it?

Useful in mixed systems containing older displays, projectors and newer 4K equipment.

In a Vertex system, this works together with the source, the connected sink(s), EDID/HDCP behaviour and the selected routing or processing configuration.

03 / HOW VERTEX USES IT

Inside the HDMI chain

SD, HD, Full HD and UHD formats within bandwidth, including 480i/p, 576p, 720p up to 120 Hz, 1080i/p, 1440p and 2160p60 (4K120 only as 4:2:0 8-bit).

04 / IMPORTANT TO KNOW

Do not confuse this with…

Resolution and refresh rate must be considered together.

This page explains the term in the context of the documented Vertex specification rather than as a general claim about every HDMI device.

QUESTIONS PEOPLE ASK

Common questions

Which resolutions does the Vertex support?

All common SD, HD, Full HD and UHD formats, from 480i up to 2160p60, plus 1440p and PC (VESA) resolutions; the manual says anything within 600 MHz is supported (p.104, p.111).

Do I need to set my player to a specific resolution?

No. The Vertex presents itself as a 2160p60 4:4:4 device and accepts the best stream the source sends (p.104).

Does the Vertex support 1440p at 120 Hz?

The manual's examples stop at 1440p60, so it does not confirm 1440p120; anything that fits in 600 MHz should pass.
