The VX1000 is no longer in production. This listing recommends the NovaStar VX1000 Pro as an alternative. Compare input formats and control requirements before replacing an existing unit.
The NovaStar VX1000 combines video processing and LED display control with ten Gigabit Ethernet outputs and a maximum load of 6.5 million pixels. It supports video controller, fiber converter and Bypass modes, with three layers for a main image and PIP layouts.
Processing and control
HDMI 1.4, DVI, 3G-SDI and optical input provide multiple source options. The device supports output scaling, cropping, color adjustment and up to ten presets. Use the front panel, NovaLCT or V-Can for configuration and control. Pixel-level brightness and chroma calibration works with NovaLCT and NovaStar calibration software.
Up to four units can be cascaded for image mosaic. A mosaic source can use only the main layer; PIP 1 and PIP 2 cannot open while that source is active. Low latency and Bypass must both be enabled for the documented 20-line delay from input to receiving card.

Maximum width and height are separate limits; the full screen must remain within 6.5 million pixels. The linked source-format table lists 8-bit RGB 4:4:4, YCbCr 4:4:4 and YCbCr 4:2:2 for HDMI, DVI and OPT 1; it does not support YCbCr 4:2:0 or 10-/12-bit input in that table. Check the document version and actual device when servicing an existing installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is VX1000 the same model as VX1000 Pro?
No. The VX1000 has three layers and HDMI 1.4 inputs. The VX1000 Pro uses six 2K layer resources and adds HDMI 2.0 4K60 input and USB media playback. Both list a maximum LED loading capacity of 6.5 million pixels.
Can the VX1000 accept a 4K input?
The linked specification lists HDMI/DVI input up to 3840 × 2160 at 30 Hz or 3840 × 1080 at 60 Hz. It does not specify full 3840 × 2160 at 60 Hz for these inputs.
Can I use PIP with a mosaic input source?
No. Only the main layer can use the mosaic source. PIP 1 and PIP 2 cannot be opened while the main layer uses it.
Does the VX1000 play videos from a USB drive?
Its USB Type-B port is documented for PC control and cascading input, and USB Type-A for cascading output. USB media playback is not listed for this model.
Where are the VX1000 manual and specifications?
Both original PDF links are available in the Specification and user manual downloads section. The original embedded product video is also retained above.
