6 live video inputs. What hardware?

[Gian]

I don't know why, SAMSC maybe can answer that to you, but we normaly use like 2 Video Inputs, and they do not use any MOVIES graphic use, as well the processor,... looks like the Video Inputs goes almost directly to the output.
I am shure they use some resources of the machinne, but I can not see it the computer working so hard.

video input uses a different part of processor, and its not so easy to measure the performance, and its not in catalyst application.

video input typically gets a delay - if computer is doing too much - but the delay isnt in catalyst its in the way operating system deals with video input.

the lfg4 cards dont work in the same way as decklink cards.

The card looks really interesting, and pretty reasonably priced ($995.US)

What drivers are required?

Which exact version for a Mac Pro?

[samsc]

you need to ask active silicon what the exact card is for your machine.

i have drivers that need to be used.

Richard,

Thanks for the drivers, I have installed these and I can still not get any input. Do you have any ideas?

Thanks

Ian
