The Novastar A5S Plus Receiving Card offers significant improvements in display quality and control capabilities for LED screens. Key features include:

• Farvestyring: Supports standard color gamuts (Rec.709 / DCI-P3 / Rec.2020) and custom color profiles for precise color reproduction.
• 18bit+ Grayscale Enhancement: Improves LED display grayscale by up to 4 times, preventing grayscale loss at low brightness levels and ensuring smoother image transitions.
• Pixel-Level Brightness and Chroma Calibration: Integrates with NovaStar's calibration system to adjust brightness and chroma for each pixel, achieving high consistency across the display.
• Quick Adjustment of Dark or Bright Lines: Corrects brightness discrepancies at module or cabinet seams for a uniform visual experience.
• Multi-batch Adjustment: Allows brightness adjustment of cabinets or modules to minimize display variations caused by different production batches.
• Lav forsinkelse: Reduces video source latency to 1 frame for PWM driver ICs. Custom firmware may be required for DCLK continuous PWM driver ICs.
• 3D funktionalitet: Compatible with controllers that support 3D output.
• Individual Gamma Adjustment for RGB: Works with NovaLCT to allow separate adjustment of red, green, and blue gamma, improving image uniformity at low grayscale and correcting white balance offset.
• 90° billedrotation: Supports image rotation in multiples of 90° (0°/90°/180°/270°).
