Delight in Video / AudioOne box that makes every HDMI problem disappear
The HDfury Diva is a 4x2 HDMI matrix, scaler and audio extractor running at full 4K60 4:4:4 600MHz 18Gbps. It gets Dolby Vision onto displays that never had it, pulls Atmos out of your TV apps for any AVR, and ends HDCP and EDID errors for good.
These are the jobs owners put a Diva to work on every day, taken from what they describe in the owner forums and in support threads. Find your problem below.
An Apple TV 4K, Nvidia Shield, Zidoo, Oppo or Panasonic player sends Low Latency Dolby Vision the moment it believes the display can take it. The Diva presents that EDID, and then injects the HDR infoframe that an LLDV stream does not carry on its own — the step that actually makes a JVC, Sony, Epson or Optoma projector switch into HDR mode. This is the single most common reason a Diva is bought.
Most common reasonGetting LLDV to appear is only half the job. In the Diva you set the maximum luminance the player should map to, match MaxCLL and MaxFALL to it, and choose DCI-P3 or BT.2020 primaries to suit your display. Those three settings are the difference between a flat, dark image and the version owners describe as cleaner in the highlights than HDR10.
Owners who calibrate their own gamma curves, JVC users especially, do not want the projector to see an HDR10 infoframe at all: it forces the projector into its own HDR mode and takes over the iris and the gamma. The Diva strips the flag on the main output while it still converts HDR to SDR on the second one.
Dolby does not license DV to outboard processors, so a Lumagen or a madVR Envy will never receive it directly. Put a Diva in front, let the source send LLDV, raise the DV maximum luminance so the player stops compressing the image itself, and the processor gets a full signal to tone map on its own terms.
Netflix, Disney+ and Prime now live inside the television. Connect that TV to the Diva TX0 output and the sound comes back out of the dedicated HDMI audio output, up to Atmos HBR over TrueHD, on a signal that any AVR input accepts — including receivers built years before eARC existed. Over ARC it reaches Atmos over Dolby Digital Plus.
World firstOne 3.5mm combo jack carries optical S/PDIF up to 5.1 and analog L/R at the same time, and the dedicated HDMI audio output passes every format in existence, DTS:X and Atmos included, on a self generated 720p or 1080p stream. Your amplifier no longer has to sit in the video path at all.
A television can only deal with one audio system over ARC, which is why the sound disappears every time something in the chain wakes up. The Diva can take that role itself and hold it, so the handshake stops wandering between the TV, the receiver and the soundbar.
Fifteen HDCP engines decrypt every input and re-encrypt each output independently, converting 2.2 to 1.4 and 1.4 to 2.2 on all channels at once. Protected 4K stops blanking the screen, and a processor or receiver built before HDCP 2.2 can stay in the system instead of being replaced.
The Diva terminates the HDMI link on both sides and holds a stable EDID, so your sources stop renegotiating with a receiver or projector that struggles with them. Owners describe the result as a cable box that appears immediately instead of after a minute, and a console that stops dropping the picture halfway through.
Those devices keep sending +5V while they sit in standby, which is exactly why ordinary auto switching picks the wrong one. The Diva switches on the TMDS pixel clock instead, so the source you actually started is the source that appears.
100 EDID banks, your own uploads, a copy taken from a connected display, or Automix built out of two of them — set per input, with flags you can force for 4K60 4:4:4, BT.2020, HDR, Atmos or plain stereo. It is also how owners discover their television has been running its port in reduced bandwidth mode all along.
The TX1 output tone maps down to 1080p SDR with a choice of profiles while TX0 keeps the full 4K60 HDR picture. That one feature is why people choose a Diva over the rest of the range: a 1080p projector, an older receiver, a whole house distribution system, a Kaleidescape feeding a legacy processor or an ambient light box all get a correct picture instead of a washed out one.
Diva exclusiveA capture card gets a clean, unprotected 1080p SDR feed with the colour already mapped, at the same moment your display gets 4K60 HDR. No grey blacks in the recording, no HDCP block, no second console, and nothing changed about what you see on screen.
Run two 18Gbps signals from two sources to two displays at once, or send one source to both. Each output carries its own scaling, chroma and HDCP rules, so a 4K television and a 1080p monitor or projector can share the same sources without either one dragging the other down.
The optional LED strip reads the actual video inside the Diva — not a camera, not an app — with black bar detection, per colour intensity and a delay you can set to match your display's own lag. Six lengths cover screens from 21 to 85 inch. It is the reason a good number of owners choose the Diva, and it replaced a lot of DreamScreen and sync boxes.
Diva exclusiveA light sensor cable and an on screen readout measure the true latency of any display up to 4K60 HDR, so you can compare picture modes and game modes with numbers instead of opinions. The Diva's own added latency is under a millisecond.
Send RS232 or IP commands to your projector the moment the signal turns into 3D, HDR10, SDR BT.709 or SDR BT.2020 — the feature built with and for the JVC community. Add CEC, IR codes for Harmony and iRule, a Control4 driver and a Home Assistant integration, and the whole room follows the film.
Resolution, chroma, colour depth, colour space, HDCP version, EOTF, colorimetry, MaxCLL, MaxFALL and frame rate to three decimals, on the OLED, on screen or in the browser. It is how owners find out that a cable is not carrying 18Gbps, or that a television quietly runs its input at reduced bandwidth.
A full 18Gbps chain from source to sink, with an audio path and a control path that run alongside it.
The Diva is always working as a matrix and a scaler at the same time, so each output gets the best signal it is actually able to accept.
Run two 18Gbps signals from two sources to two displays at once, or split one source to both outputs. Scaling, HDCP and chroma rules are applied on the fly, per output.
4K to 1080p and 1080p to 4K, with or without colour depth kept and with or without chroma conversion. Passthru and bypass modes, 8, 10, 12 and 16 bit, including DCI 4096x2160.
HDCP 2.2 to 1.4 and 1.4 to 2.2 conversion inside one unit, on every channel simultaneously. Each output encrypts, or does not, independently.
Capture, edit, block or replace HDR metadata, AVI and VSIF. Read SPD, Audio, HDMI Vendor and HDMI Forum infoframes. Translate HLG to HDR and build your own metadata.
The Diva never touches your audio format. What comes in goes out untouched, it is only routed to wherever you need it.
No driver, no app store detour, no Windows only software. The embedded web server runs on anything with a browser, and every setting is also available over IR, IP, RS232, CEC or the four buttons on the unit.
A video responsive LED strip driven by the real signal, available in six lengths for 21 to 85 inch displays. It runs from HDR, LLDV and 4K content directly, so there is no delay, no camera and nothing to calibrate afterwards.
A light sensor cable and an on screen readout measure the true latency of any display up to 4K60 HDR. Test picture modes, game modes and processing settings and see the milliseconds for yourself.
Four inputs, three outputs, and the end of the HDMI compromises you have been living with.
