  1. How to build a 10 projectors in 2 display computers and 1 production computer

    in WATCHOUT FORUM

    Posted

    Last time I used their HDMI capture card - AVerMedia C985 

    it shows HDCP text

     

     

    here is my setup:

     

    MBPR HDMI output > HDMI capture card input > Watchout5 display computer 

     

     

    And this time I bring my own Intensity Pro capture card HDMI input to test again with the same setup

    it works without any problem, and the latency is very low.

     

    So it was the capture card caused the HDCP issue.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    If your source is HDCP-protected, NO capture card will capture the signal.

    This is what's been stated earlier in the thread.

     

    The issue at hand is why HDCP gets involved in the first place, but that is a bit outside of our domain.

    You can only input 1280x720p50/59.94/60 OR 1920x1080p25/29.97/30

    into a BMD 1,5G HDSDI or HDMI card (ie Intensity Pro)...

    Analog or digital does not matter.

    1920x1080p50/59.94/60 requires a 3G HDSDI card like Decklink Extreme or Datapath VisionSDI.

     

    Or use a Datapath Vision E1s/E2s, as earlier mentioned.

     

    This has been discussed here several times before...

    So even I use Datatpath Vision E1s/E2s to capture DVI signal from MBP, I still need to deal with HDCP issue ?

    Thanks for these nice information!!!!!

     

    and because I'm in Taiwan, I can't find any place sells Datapath Vision E1s/E2s card... and how much is the card?

    Is there has other choice? 

     

    Yes. Run it with Full Video Preview Off = "Video as Thumbnails"

     

     

     

     

    - i7 6-core, 3930K or more,

     

     

    - 16 GB RAM is enough.

     

     

    No.

    Use an ASUS HD7970 6 output card instead.

     

     

     

    For capture of HDSDI, yes.

    For capture of DVI 1920x1080p60 from MacBookPro, use a Datapath Vision E1s/E2s instead.

     

     

     

    SSD x 2, one for OS, 1 for Media

     

     

     

    You'll need something like this, see spec below:

    Please also look here for tweaking etc.

    Don't use HDMI, use a MiniDisplayPort -> DVI adapter and feed into a Datapath Vision E1s/E2s instead.

    Why would resolume send an hdcp encrypted signal anyway? Really doesn't make sense to me! Never had hdcp encryption on an apple digital output, unless perhaps you're playing back a DVD. Which you would probably capture before playback. Or am I mistaking here?

     

    I use resolume in Macbook Pro Retina and HDMI output to the capture card, then the screen displays white HDCP text in black background...

    Hi,

     

    I need to build a 10 projectors blending system for tour, it needs as few computer as it can traveling around by airplane.

    And theres is a Live VJ will use Resolume in another Mac Book Pro Retina, so it need a 1080p live input with as low latency as possible.

     

    QUESTIONS:

     

    1. Can I use a PC laptop as Production Computer ? I need all my setup as compact as it can.

     

    2. Can someone suggests me a setup ?

     

    Here is what I thought about the display computer setup:

     

    2 display computers with :

    i7 CPU ;

    32 GB DDR3 RAM ;

    AMD FirePro W600 graphic card x 1;

    Blackmagic Design Deck Link Series card x 1;

    SSD x 1;

     

    but I dont know if they work or not...

    correct me if it is not.

     

     

    3. it seems HDMI Output from MAC wont pass through into HDMI capture card due to HDCP,

    so what Can I do to send computer video output into WATCHOUT system ?

     

     

    Thank you...
