You can pair, connect and use the Bluetooth APP even when no signals is going through the Integral, in such conditions, the Bluetooth range is over >20m. However, the Bluetooth range will be highly affected by the resolution in use because of EMI, below you can find the average working distance for Bluetooth based on the processed signal resolution and refresh rate. 1080p60 and below: Bluetooth working range is about 10 meters. 4K60 4:2:0 and below: Bluetooth working range is about 5 meters. 4K60 4:4:4: Bluetooth working range is about 2 meters. (We recommend using IR for wireless control in 600MHz) Known issues:
- Sony Z serie devices have issue with BT range, there is not much we can do about it as it is a global issue affecting mostly all Sony Z serie devices as you can read/find on google. The Google Play market offers APK that claims to solve the Bluetooth issue on Sony but we did not see any noticeable improvement using them. Current working range for Sony Z serie devices is about 5 or 6 meters. FAQ Can we pass-through 4K60 4:4:4 and have one output at 4K60 4:2:0 ?
Yes, when activated, the 4K60 4:4:4 > 4K60 4:2:0 conversion will only affect the TOP output, BOTTOM output will stay a direct path at 4K60 4:4:4. What is the Bluetooth working range ?
You can pair, connect and use the Bluetooth APP even when no signals is going through the Integral, in such conditions, the Bluetooth range is over >20m. However, the Bluetooth range will be highly affected by the resolution in use because of EMI, below you can find the average working distance for Bluetooth based on the processed signal resolution and refresh rate. 1080p60 and below: Bluetooth working range is about 10 meters. 4K60 4:2:0 and below: Bluetooth working range is about 5 meters. 4K60 4:4:4: Bluetooth working range is about 2 meters. (We recommend using IR for wireless control in 600MHz) My display is supposed to accept 4K60 4:4:4 signal but it does not work ?
For most UHD TV set we tried, there are always extra configuration options to active in order to achieve a 4K60 4:4:4 600MHz link. For ex, on samsung: in order to enable the 444 colorspace for 4k in Samsung TV:s you must go to "settings" and "hdmi" and "UHD color" and enable it. Then also you must assign the HDMI port1 as "PC" in the tools menu. Only after these two steps will 600MHz be accepted. Similar activation trick is require on most UHD TV. Additionally, most UHD TV only have certain specific ports that are 600MHz capable. Disclaimer: 3rd party and/or custom firmware providing extra features are not covered in this manual. 18 4K Integral User Manual I have a PC mode on my TV (or a PC monitor) what resolutions are supported for graphics mode ?
All PC graphics mode within the 600Mhz bandwidth are supported, including ultra high resolution such as WQSXGA, QUXGA, QFHD, WQUXGA, 4K. What output resolution does the Integral support in HDTV mode ?
All known SD, HD, Full HD and UHD formats are supported including: 480p50, 480p60, 576p50, 576p60, 720p50, 720p60, 720p100, 720p120, 1080i25, 1080i30, 1080p24, 1080p25, 1080p30, 1080p48, 1080p50, 1080p60, 1080p72, 1080p75, 1080p96, 1440p50, 1440p60, 2160p24, 2160p25, 2160p30, 2160p50, 2160p60 (these are examples only, anything within the 600MHz bandwidth is supported.) What version of HDMI does the Integral work with? Do I need HDMI 1.3/1.4a/2.0a? Does it matter?
It does not matter. HDfury Integral works with any version of HDMI from 1.0 and up. Do I need to set anything special in my HDMI source device to set resolution correctly?
No. The HDfury Integral will be detected as 2160p60 4:4:4 capable device by your source and always accept and process the highest quality stream from your source devices. There is no need to set the HDMI source to any specific resolution. Is there any latency (delay) introduced to the signal?
Virtually none. The latency added is in the order of a few pixel clocks only. Nothing noticeable at all. What is the USB port for?
To supply power from the supplied USB power unit and for firmware upgrades when new
(additional) functions and enhancements are offered. What about long HDMI cable runs? Can I expect issues?
For 600MHz user must use "high speed" cables, or 600MHz/18Gbps certified. For 4K30, 1080p or less almost all cables are ok. HDfury Integral acts as an HDMI repeater device. So having a HDfury Integral in the path will amplify and recover the signal. You should not need any passive
(or active) HDMI amplifiers, especially if you put HDfury Integral in the middle of your cable run. If you previously had to use an amplifier, the HDfury Integral can most likely take its place. The HDfury Integral has been used with 50 foot (and longer) HDMI cables without issues. How are the new lossless audio formats via HDMI input handled ? E.g. DTS-HD/MA and DD/E-AC3 : Are they stripped down to DTS core or Dolby Digital respectively to fit the requirements of the S/PDIF standard ?
Lossless audio is transmit through HDMI output only. HDfury Integral does not compress or otherwise create loss to the incoming audio. Only stereo and 5.1 sound can be output via SPDIF output and analog output. Disclaimer: 3rd party and/or custom firmware providing extra features are not covered in this manual. 19 4K Integral User Manual How do I hook up the audio from the Integral ?
The Integral has both analog and digital (TOSLINK) audio output in one connector labeled "D/A"
along with a headphone symbol. It's a 2-in-1 connector meaning that you can plug in either a 3.5mm stereo analog jack or a digital mini-TOLINK (3.5mm mini-jack) cable and get stereo analog sound or 5.1 Dolby/DTS digital sound out of the Integral. See further below for pictures of both types of connectors/cables. Integral 3.5mm mini-TOSLINK digital audio cable:
If you'd like to use a "regular" TOSLINK cable, use a 3.5mm Mini-TOSLINK to regular TOSLINK adapter:
A 3.5mm stereo audio cable can be used for connecting the Integral to a TV if you do not have a home theater setup (you only have 2 speakers in your TV):
Do I need to use the HDfury4 power supply?
Disclaimer: 3rd party and/or custom firmware providing extra features are not covered in this manual. 20 4K Integral User Manual Yes. Due to the advanced features, the HDfury4S draws more power than previous HDfury models. The HDfury4 power supply must be used at all times. Is the Integral power supply the same as that used by the HDfury1, HDfury2, and GammaX?
No. The power supply for the HDfury1, HDfury2 and GammaX kits are 0.5A max current. The HDfury3 is 1A max current. The Integral power supply can supply up to 2.0A. Do not use an HDfury1, HDfury2, or GammaX power supplies with the Integral. What sort of power supply does the Integral use?
Integral power supply adheres to these requirements:
- Provides REGULATED (+/- 5%) 5VDC power with 2.0A min DC current
- Delivers the power through a mini usb connector. Trying to use an AC/DC adaptor that doesn't adhere to these three requirements may destroy the Integral. Do not use the power supply from the HDfury1, HDfury2, or GammaX with the Integral.

HDR and Infoframe Metadata Live Injector Integral is capable of injecting live Infoframe and HDR metadata at any resolution and in real time. Proof of concept is already available from the USB GUI PC windows software available. Further software solution for a complete live and real time handling of infoframe and HDR metadata will be offered and announced shortly through an exclusive partnership underway. Unique HDCP Doctor Providing a total of 6 HDCP 1.4 and 2.2 engines for decryption/encryption, HDfury Integral offers a total HDCP workaround solution including HDCP 1.4 > HDCP 2.2 and HDCP 1.4 >
HDCP 2.2 both ways conversion within the same unit. It is capable of connecting any HDCP1.x or HDCP2.x source devices to any HDCP1.x or HDCP 2.x sink devices. Each RX block decrypts the input first whether its 1.x or 2.x. Then each output port can individually encrypts it to 1.4(both) or 2.2(only top port) or not encrypt it at all. Dual conversion can be operated on both channels simultaneously. Display HDCP 2.2 Content with Non-Compliant Devices HDCP 2.2 is the new copy-protection scheme for 4K UHD content.Not only it is not backward compatible but many recent 4K devices dont even support it. Source devices, including media servers and head-ends like Netflix, will encode their 4K content with this new scheme. TVs must be HDCP 2.2-enabled to play it, and everything in the video chain including switches and receivers must be compliant as well, or the display will go dark and/or display a HDCP error. Bad news for consumers who have purchased expensive, high-bandwidth, processor-rich switchers and receivers to accommodate 4K. While the newer products may support the bandwidth needs of 4K, they wont play copy-protected works until Integral is an active part of the setup. 22 Splitter up to 4K60 4:4:4 600MHz 18Gbps Splitting any signal up to 4K60 4:4:4 600MHz signal is now a reality, thanx to IR/BT or push button, you can easily switch between 2 inputs that will be replicated to 2 outputs. HDCP conversion can be configured and applied on the fly in order to always output the type of signal that your display or sink device is expecting. 4K60 4:4:4 600MHz 18Gbps > 4K60 4:2:0 300 MHz 10.2Gbps conversion Disclaimer: 3rd party and/or custom firmware providing extra features are not covered in this manual. 22 4K Integral User Manual Mostly all UHD TV sold until recently can only accept 4K60 when it comes in the form of a 4K60 4:2:0 300MHz signal, However upcoming sources and current high end graphics cards are outputting 4K60 4:4:4 (600MHz 18 Gbps). Integral is solving that arising issue. HDMI Audio Extracting HDfury Integral can extract HDMI audio and has a simultaneous output of analog L/R stereo and optical S/PDIF via 3.5mm combo jack connector. External Audio Replacing Mini jack input connector (or Mic/Line IN) option is available to replace the audio in any HDMI/DVI-D stream up to 4K60 4:4:4 600MHz 18Gbps.
