searching for an upscaler with 3 HMDI in / 1 HDMI out

Hello everyone !
I'm searching for a simple upscaler, that can upscale, at least 480p to 1080p.
I also need at least 3 HDMI in (selectable by a remote control, or button), and 1 HDMI out.
I don't need a very good or fancy one. Just need it to do it's job well as a HDMI selector and 480p to 1080p upscaler.
I don't need any deinterlace, double line, or filter options.
At first I would have like to get an other DVDO edge, but it is hard to find one for a good price (under 100$) and in good condition... and I don't need all the fonctions it does.

This is difficult. Most scalars will have either have 2 or 8 inputs.

If my memory is still good, DVDO had a micro model which was a very tiny, 1 hdmi in 1 hdmi out scalar. It could upscale to 4K30 but had no other function. It was meant to extend usefulness of DVDO duo which could only scale up to 2K but 4K was a the next big thing.

It was cheap on release many years ago like under $250, I assume much cheaper now. I also assume it is somewhat rare because it really didn’t have a big target market. I would value it no more than $50 now. You can combine this with a HDMI switch which you should be able to find for really cheap. There are other no name solutions similar to DVDO Micro. There were even upscaling built in hdmi cables at one time.
