Sencore, Lumagen Create Strategic Partnership
Jun 16, 2008
Sencore and Lumagen have formed a strategic partnership to provide the highest quality video in the home theater and commercial AV markets. The idea behind pairing Lumagen's Radiance series video processors and Sencore's calibration tools is to enable integrators to completely implement video systems and correct many built-in problems in video displays.
The RadianceXD is a video processor and switcher that supports 18 video inputs: six 1080p60-capable HDMI with HDCP, four SD/HD component, four S-video, and four composite. The RadianceXD features two HDMI outputs at resolutions up to 1920 x 1080, at 60-Hertz (1080p60). The Radiance family of products offers 10-bit processing, per-pixel standard definition (SD) and high definition (HD) video de-interlacing with adaptive diagonal filtering, edge-enhancing scaling technology that does not add ringing. Additional important image quality features include temporal noise reduction for both SD and HD sources, and extensive calibration options.
Teaming the Sencore VideoPro generator and ColorPro color analyzer with the Radiance allows 11-step parametric grayscale and gamma calibration and full color space correction, independently at all primary and secondary points.
“These are perfectly matched technologies that play off of each other’s strengths,
creating an integrated solution that AV integrators previously have not been able to
address without highly specialized personnel and materials," stated Al Bowden, Sencore’s CEO. "We are looking forward to working together with such a high-quality partner company, especially with the caliber of people like Jim Peterson, who has set the bar for quality in the video processor industry.”
Lumagen’s founder, Jim Peterson, added that by integrating the Radiance family of video processors with Sencore Calibration Tools, "display optimization can be done precisely and quickly using Sencore’s user friendly GUI. The Sencore-Lumagen partnership allows Lumagen to focus on product improvements, while Sencore provides the five-star support that they are known for,” he stated.

I would like to see a statement from Jim with much more detail on how this will work. Details on how and where current Radiance users will get support, updates and upgrades. Also, how will this effect the update/upgrade commitments that have been made?
My initial reaction to this announcement is very negative in how it could impact current users. Lumagen's support for the Lumagen has been truly stellar, but I now fear the future. I hope Jim can clear some of this up.

EDIT Nevermind. I see Jim has already posted what I wanted to see on the AVS Forum.
