In case you were worried that some AV hookup problem was going to go unresolved, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/gefen/">Gefen</a> has added yet another offering to its lineup with the Audio Video Scaler Pro with Amplifier (not to be confused with the company's <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/11/gefen-tv-scaler-pro-realta-hqv-1080p-upconversion-for-699/">TV Scaler Pro</a>). This rack-mountable, black and blue little wonderbox will fill in switching, upscaling, transcoding and you guessed it, audio amplification. All you need to do is supply the video source in HDMI (two inputs), DVI, VGA, component, composite or s-video formats and corresponding audio (S/PDIF and optical for the HDMI, analog stereo for the others) and you'll be able to send a single HDMI signal with embedded audio down the line; or you can break out the two channels of 20-Watts audio right at the box's rear panel and hook up some speakers. If you've been looking for a way to get videogaming into the conference room, check the press release after the break.<p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/11/gefens-av-scaler-pro-with-amplifier-is-pretty-much-what-the-nam/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Gefen's AV Scaler Pro with Amplifier is pretty much what the name says</em></a></p><p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/other-hardware/" rel="tag">Other hardware</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/switches/" rel="tag">Switches</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/11/gefens-av-scaler-pro-with-amplifier-is-pretty-much-what-the-nam/">Gefen's AV Scaler Pro with Amplifier is pretty much what the name says</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Tue, 11 Nov 2008 20:31:00 EST.
