NovaStar MX20
NovaStar MX20
The MX20 is NovaStar's entry-level offering in the premium COEX Series (Creativity, Openness, Extensibility, Infinite possibilities), delivering professional-grade performance in a compact, cost-effective package. This all-in-one controller seamlessly integrates video processing and video control into a single unit, eliminating the need for separate devices. Equipped with 2x HDMI 1.3 and 1x 3G-SDI inputs, the MX20 accommodates diverse video sources while maintaining exceptional reliability. With 6x Gigabit Ethernet output ports and 2x 10G optical fiber ports, it handles displays up to 3.9 million pixels (max 3840×2560) across 3 independent processing layers. The MX20 excels in applications requiring precise synchronization through its Genlock support, delivering ultra-low latency (1 frame) and adaptive frame rates from 23.98-480 Hz. Its advanced image processing includes four intelligent scaling modes (custom, pixel-to-pixel, snap to canvas, fill screen), 14-channel color correction, and full-grayscale calibration for uniform brightness. Fully compatible with NovaStar's VMP (Vision Management Platform) software, the MX20 provides intuitive centralized control for studios, broadcasting facilities, corporate events, and professional installations where space efficiency and reliability are paramount.
