Description
madVR Envy Pro MK3 – High-end video processing for dedicated theatres
The madVR Envy Pro MK3 sits between the Core and the Extreme in the current Envy range. It takes the Envy feature set and adds a 4U premium chassis, ECC memory, full HDMI 2.1 48 Gbps input and output, 5K and 8K upscaling, VRR, the RC2 backlit remote, and a 5-year warranty. It is a strong match for a serious home cinema that wants the current-generation HDMI and upscaling path, without the Extreme’s MotionAI and geometry correction.
Current-generation processing
The Pro MK3 uses an NVIDIA 5060 GPU, a 6-core / 12-thread CPU and ECC dual-channel memory. Official graphics performance is 19,000 GFLOPS, with 77,000–154,000 Tensor-core GFLOPS for the AI tools. Typical power draw is 60W to 250W. Fan curves include Silent, Balanced, Rack and Custom. Rack ears are included (4U).
HDR dynamic tone mapping
madVR’s frame-by-frame HDR dynamic tone mapping analyses every frame in real time, including at 4K60. Highlight Recovery, Contrast Recovery and Shadow Detail Recovery are included, with preset HDR looks and adjustable highlight and global saturation, so HDR content is mapped to the display in front of you rather than to a generic peak-brightness number.
Aspect ratio, NLS+ and subtitles
The Pro MK3 detects aspect ratio and black bars, including IMAX-format changes, and fits the image to the screen. Bi-directional NLS+ works on scope and 16:9 screens, and there is image shift for CIW projection, convergence correction and AI anamorphic stretch. Subtitle management can resize the image when captions would be cut off, and Dynamic Subtitle Overlay can reposition and dim subtitles without shrinking the picture. Automatic activation of JVC and Sony lens memories, via IP control, is listed by madVR as coming soon. Geometry correction for barrel distortion, curved screens and off-axis projectors is reserved for the Extreme MK3.
4K, 5K and 8K upscaling
AI upscaling covers 4K60 and goes on to 5K24/50/60, 8K24/60, and custom resolutions up to 8K60 (some formats may need DSC). Chroma is upscaled from 4:2:0 to 4:4:4, and the Envy can undo poor chroma upscaling from a source before applying its own. Sharpening, texture enhancement, AI compression-artefact reduction, grain and noise reduction, banding reduction and ringing reduction are all included.
Calibration
The Pro MK3 supports 3D LUTs up to 2563 and 4,096-point 1D LUTs at 12-bit precision, and works with Calman and ColourSpace via Envy calibration engine V2.
HDMI 2.1, 48 Gbps and gaming
There is one full HDMI 2.1 HDCP 2.3 48 Gbps input, one 48 Gbps output and one 48 Gbps zero-latency pass-through. Maximum input is 12-bit 4K120 4:4:4 or 8K60 4:2:0; maximum output is 12-bit 4K120 4:4:4 or 8K60 4:4:4. Low-latency gaming mode, Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM), Quick Media Switching, Quick Frame Transport, and VRR (input from 1 Hz, output at 120, 240 and 360 Hz) are included. Three DisplayPort 2.1b outputs are specified for future expansion and are not yet available. Wake-on-HDMI can power the unit up when a signal appears.
Profiles, remote and installation
Profiles are unlimited, with advanced test patterns. The RC2 backlit remote (RF and IR) is included, with motion-activated backlighting, dedicated Back and Info buttons, and extra assignable keys. Place the Envy between your AVR or sources and the display. With your permission, a dealer can use madAssist to view the output and operate the unit remotely. IP control covers Crestron, Crestron Home, Control4, Savant, RTI and others.
5-year warranty
The Pro MK3 is covered by madVR’s 5-year parts and labour warranty.
