6 live video inputs. What hardware?

[samsc]

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?

-s

[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

Hi Richard,

The MAC is a 2.66Ghz MAC Pro Running 10.4.8.


The peferences are set up correctly as per your screen shot.

In the catalyst control it reports 4 video channels.

In the HUd, inputs section there are 4 boxes and they show that all video inputs are off. If I tick the box it appears to try to load some settings and then returns back to off. I have tried versions 111 and 097.

Thanks

Ian
