SDI out options on Scarlet-W?

[Jim Skinner]

Hi, I run the live events on Twitter.com and I'm trying to put together a workflow where our Scarlet-W sends SDI out to a LiveStream switcher. Can the Scarlet-W's SDI output be "dumbed down" to standard, old school SD-SDI (1080 over SD-SDI) so the LiveStream Studio HD51 (HD version) can receive it, or would I potentially need to get the more expensive 4K version of the switcher to handle HD-SDI. Has anyone had any luck putting the Scarlet-W on a switcher? There are so many flavors of SDI now that older switchers have a problem with the newer SDI variants. Help me put this awesome camera on a switcher! And yes, I'll live with the fan noise during our live production, Red is worth it!!!

The SDI out is debayered 1080p. Red doesn't have 12g sdi so there's no 4k sdi out without the broadcast module.
