Does anyone know of an HD-SDI de-embedder/extractor/demuxer/reader that can pull the embedded SMPTE timecode from an HD-SDI signal and spit out LTC timecode? It would be a simple little black box... SDI input (maybe with an SDI loop out) and an LTC output by means of a 1/4" plug or BNC spigot or similarly common TC output connector.
I'm surprised AJA doesn't have a little "gray" box that does this... seems pretty straight forward and they'd be the company to make such a quality device.
Searching the net for days has yielded very little results. The closest I found was this...

What about the Horita box....this takes the RS422 output of the Kona card or deck and spits out an LTC audio channel. This is how I make timecode matching dubs from HDV to DVCProHD via the Convergent designs M1 box.
I think it is the TG-50. Horita is the timecode conversion/extraction company. Oh, and blackburst generators.
