Decklink Quad

Does anyone have any experience with the Decklink Quad cards in Touch. Looking for a solution for three simultaneous sdi inputs.

Yup, they can be a bit finicky with the drivers and settings, but for the price they work great.

Thanks! Just another quick one to the hive mind, I’m running three quadro m5000 with gpu affinity, I’ll be recieving three blackmagic sdi streams through one of the three processeses but need to share those streams between the other two processes. Can’t use spout due to the gpu affinity so I am using touch ins and outs to share the feeds, is this the best approach or have I missed something.

You can use the Shared Memory TOPs as well

If you just use mosaic, you won’t get the benefit of separate threads, but the Nvidia driver will take care of all the texture sharing for you.

Yeah, we used it for this show:

worked great! fairly acceptable delays when doing lots of 4x processing - it was exciting. :smiley:
