Datapath VisionSC-UHD2 User Manual

Graphics Support and HDCP Content
The VisionSC-UHD2 captures data and stores it in an on-board video buer which is then transferred using DMA to the host
system for display, storage or streaming.
When choosing to display the captured video, there are a number of supported options including Datapath, Intel, NVidia and
AMD. Alternatively, captured frames can be sent to a system memory buer for a user application to process and render
separately.
When a VisionSC-UHD2 is used with a Datapath graphics card, highly ecient video drivers transfer large volumes of video
trac directly to the graphics card’s video memory for best possible performance. Capture and rendering of HDCP protected
content is possible in this case, whilst allowing full colour quality, video resolution and frame-rate to be retained.
Supported API’s
Datapath oers two powerful and intuitive options for third party application development:
Datapath RGBEasy SDK and Microsoft® DirectShow / Media Foundation.
• Cropping support on all inputs.
• Start and Stop capture on all inputs.
• Input Ganging for synchronising multiple inputs.
• Control the video transfer formats.
• Enable LiveStream for lower latency.
• Synchronisation of multiple inputs across multiple cards.
• Synchronise systems using network clock synchronisation.
• For edge blending and other applications.
Usage of these interfaces is described in detail within the user documentation provided in the downloadable driver package.

Video Streaming
The provided Microsoft® DirectShow / Media Foundation source lters provide support for a plethora of applications used for
encoding, recording and network streaming of captured video. Typical and commonly used applications include:
• Dataton Watchout
• PanOpto
• vMix
• Telestream Wirecast
• Opencast Video Solution
• VidBlasterX
• Open Broadcaster Software (OBS)
• Adobe Flash Media Live Encoder
• VLC.
A Video for Linux (V4L) driver package is also available for download.
Any application compatible with the Microsoft® DirectShow / Media Foundation framework will enumerate the video capture
device and provide the user with the main features of the card.
