Adjust the incoming video size to your requirements.
A captured frame can be scaled up or down within a 4K x 4K range using a high quality polyphase filter. The scaling process reduces overall DMA bandwidth by ensuring any downscaling is performed on the capture card before data is transferred to the destination. Any of the 16 MultiStream input clients can be up or down scaled independently.
Independently control multiple instances of a capture from a single input source.
MultiStream technology provides DMA support for 16 independent capture clients. Each client can have independent capture size (scale factor), frame rate, pixel depth, DMA destination and cropping rectangle.
MultiStream allows ‘Preview’, ‘Capture’ and ‘Stream’ clients with different bandwidth requirements to be supported from a single input source, without using the CPU.
The Datapath hardware timestamp uses a common clock for both video and audio buffers. Hardware time stamping provides precise knowledge of when a frame is captured, allowing applications to synchronise multiple sources from multiple cards.
An on-board colour space and format converter eliminates the need for user post processing. Vision supports a long list of formats including those most commonly used by hardware and software based video encoders such as NV12 & YV12.
With dedicated support personnel stationed in the United Kingdom, United States of America and Japan, Datapath are able to provide world class support when you need it most.
Datapath hardware is manufactured to ISO 9001 standards, each board is subjected to an automated solder paste inspection, automated optical inspection, x-ray inspection and an intensive production test. Components are chosen for maximum MTBF for long term reliability.
Fast start up time using the interfaces provided by Datapath, Microsoft and Linux.
Rich sample application available as standard fully demonstrates the capabilities of Vision capture cards.
Configure the capture card to force a particular input signal on the source. Importing and exporting system EDIDs allows for flexible system integration when moving to 4K UHD. The EDID can be displayed and configured in either ‘Video Definition’ or ‘EDID’ format.
Simply connect the input cable to start capturing. Signal detection is provided by internal driver algorithms assisted by physical hardware measurements. This provides high speed and accurate signal detection for all signal sources, including less common non-standard sources.
When used in conjunction with Image graphics cards, there is no limit to view-able encrypted video content.
Take advantage of the Vision features easily and quickly.
Datapath provide a SDK bundle including our own RGBEasy which has been optimised over 15 years. For off shelf compatibility with various applications, Microsoft’s DirectShow and Media Foundation is also supported.
Develop your software with confidence. Datapath’s SDK is always built on previous versions ensuring backwards compatibility, meaning updates do not effect existing installations.
