[multiple Live Video Camera Capture Cards]

3840x2160  capture works with WATCHOUT 5 and there is no reason to believe any different with WATCHOUT 6.

We used DataPath capture cards when testing this with WATCHOUT 5,

DataPath VisionSC-DP2 at up to 3840x2160 60p via DisplayPort 1.2 and

the DataPath VisionDVI-DL up to 3840x2160 30p via DL-DVI-D.

There are a few WATCHOUT 5 systems in regular use

for the purpose of accepting a 4K signal and delivering it as four 1080p outputs.

 

Do not know about the BMD product.

thanks JFK for the insight

Yes, you're correct, it can do that, for one input, not two as the VisionSDI2 does. Per input, the cost is approx the same.

Will be hard to fit 4 of those in a chassie, though...which was the question at hand here.

 

 

It's preliminary tested, but 4K input from this card does not work yet with WATCHOUT, as of now.

We are looking into this, it should be possible. 

Stay tuned.

Hi Jonas Dannert does the 4K capture works now with Watchout 6? Does the Blackmagic Design DeckLink 4K Pro 12G-SDI Video Capture & Playback Card compatible witch watchout 6?

[Need help For our video wall engine setup plan]

Good day we are currently planning on building a new video wall using the software Watchout 6  for our Local TV Station, 

we need help if our setup works properly and if we miss something with our hardware setup.

 

PC HP WORKSTATION Z840 SPECS:                           

PROCESSOR:       1X         INTEL XEON E5-2667 v3 3.4GHZ (6CORE)

RAM:                     4X         4GB DDR4-2133ECC Registered RAM

GPU:                     1X         AMD FirePro W8100 4 DISPLAYPORT 1.2 

GPU SYNC:           1X         ATI FirePro S400 Synchronization Module

Capture card:        ??         ??

PSU:                      1x         1125W90% Efficient

STORAGE:            2X         Samsung 850 PRO 1TB

 

Questions:

1. Will our current hardware setup work properly with watchout 6?

2. What is the best capture card for us?

3. What is the maximum video output of a single video card?

4. Will MST (multi stream transport) hub work with Wtachout 6? 

example videocard output 4 + 4pcs.mst hub 3output = 12 video output.

5. Do we need EDID Managers like TMB DVI Parrot and if YES, do we need to have all videooutput to have each one of it?

6. Is Windows 10 compatible with watchout6?

7. Is it required for us to have the gpu sync even we have one card in one machine?

 

My apologies there is so many question we really need a wall that is both reliable and cost effective
