Thomas Leong Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 Never tried the one you mention. I have the (since discontinued) low-profile legacy card which captures SDI or DVI, and sold 2 of the bigger brothers for Watchout use. Works fine with Watchout. Latency perhaps about 2-4 frames slower than the Datapath models. And someone else here has used the USB-HDMI model with Watchout as well. On their software compatibility page, Watchout is listed as compatible. That may be re-assuring? http://www.magewell.com/compatible-software Thomas Leong 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Miro Posted January 9, 2017 Moderator Report Share Posted January 9, 2017 Hi, the card is working and we have both the 4x HDMI and 4x SDI on our test bench. For WATCHOUT 6.1.5 (released by the end of this week) we use Magewell's low latency mode but the latency is still 1-2 slower than Datapath's cards. WATCHOUT 6.1.5 also adds better support for their USB devices as well (or any USB video capture that uses standard microsoft drivers). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky d Posted January 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2017 So is it better choice over datapath vision rgb e2s because i can capture 4 hdmi input for any laptop or pc source 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator jfk Posted January 9, 2017 Moderator Report Share Posted January 9, 2017 So is it better choice over datapath vision rgb e2s because i can capture 4 hdmi input for any laptop or pc source I would not consider 2-4 framers MORE delay to be better, ymmv 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Miro Posted January 10, 2017 Moderator Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 The old datapath vision RGB has probably the same performance as Magewell resulting in 4-5 frames capture latency. The new datapath SC range performs much better (2-3 frames latency). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a magewell quad SDI capture card i'm testing with WO ver 6.7.2. All I can get it to see is the #1 input. Do I need an older driver? Thoughts? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
