Description
The VisionSD4+1S RGB/DVI/HD and SD Video Capture Card from DATAPATH is a video capture card with five complete video capture channels supporting a single channel for up to 1920x1080 DVI or 2048x1536 Analog resolution, plus four SD Analog capture channels, and provides a maximum data rate of 650 MB/s. The card captures the Analog/DVI data and triple buffers it into on-board storage. This data is then copied using DMA to the host system for display, storage or streaming. When a Datapath graphics card is used, the VisionSD4+1S transfers the data directly to the graphics card thereby increasing performance. When the RGB/DVI data is displayed on a non-Datapath graphics card, the VisionSD4+1S sends the data to system memory or direct to the graphics card, dependent on the software used for display. The VisionSD4+1S video capture card is supplied with a software application for configuring the timing and format of the input sources and displaying the data. Simply connect your external DVI, Analog, or video source into the card, run the VisionSD4+1S application to automatically detect the video source format and display the captured video in a window on your desktop. The VisionSD4+1S is a suitable solution for applications that require the capture of an RGB/DVI source simultaneously with up to four SD video sources, such as viewing Analog or DVI sources from PCs, MACs, industrial/medical equipment, cameras and other video equipment, streaming video applications, and video wall controllers. For streaming applications, the VisionSD4+1s can be used with Windows Media Encoder to compress and stream captured video. To replay the video, use Windows Media Player. Any application compatible with Windows DirectShow technology can use the VisionSD4+1s due to its built-in WDM support.None Direct WDM streaming driver supports the following applications, to encode, record and stream video over networks or the internet: Dataton WatchOut Microsoft Expression Encoder Windows Media Encoder VideoLAN VLC NorPix StreamPix VitualDub Adobe Flash Encoder VidBlaster AMCap and other DirectShow compatible softwareNone Four channel SD Video and one channel RGB/DVI/HD video capture cardNone Four-lane PCI Express interface with a maximum data rate of 650MB/sNone Maximum RGB analog capture resolution of 2048 x 1536 x 24-bit, and maximum DVI capture resolution of 1920 x 1200 x 24-bitNone HD modes using the supplied DVI/Component adapter or DVI/HDMI adapterNone Four SD capture channels for PAL/NTSC, SECAM for composite or S-Video inputsNone On-card processor for real-time mode and sync detectionNone Support for multiple cards allowing up to 128 SD capture channels and 32 DVI-I capture channelsNone Direct DMA driver software and streaming driverNone High quality down scalingNone Support for YUV 4:2:2 and RGB 5:5:5, 5:6:5, and 8:8:8 video formatsNone High performance DMA to system memory or direct to graphics memory with scatter gatherNone Support for separate H/V sync, Composite sync, or Sync on GreenNone Support for Windows XP, Vista, Server 2003, Server 2008, Windows 7, Windows 8, and LinuxNone Includes WDM streaming drivers and Datapath Vision application software, and is fully integrated with the Datapath Wall Control-red video wall softwareNone Datapath SDK included for software developers
