[clighthall]

I was just wondering what hardware was involved with getting 6 live video inputs with the new build of V4?

If you buy these cards - mention me - you need to get drivers from me.

I admit I only did a quick look around but couldn't find them for sale, who is selling them in North America?

hello SAMSC,

Did you test the Catalyst System with 6 video inputs??? Which hardware did you use and were the video streams played in realtime?

Hey Richard,

I am currently running a Catalyst v3.3 system on a Dual 2GHz G5 with 1Gig of RAM and Mac OS X.

Do you know if this system is suitable and capable of running a PCI-E LFG4 and displaying all four inputs simultaeneously??

it doesnt work in v3.3. v3.3 only supports 2 inputs.

i havent seen anything less than a dual 2.7 ghz used with these cards.
Active silicon have cards that works in PCI i think.
