Decklink Duo - General Description
DeckLink Duo is perfect for developers who need two completely independent
capture and playback streams in and out of a computer, as both capture and
playback channels are completely independent. There are two SDI inputs, and
two SDI outputs plus a common tri-sync/black burst reference. DeckLink Duo
appears as two independent SDI cards to the computer, but only uses a single
PCI Express slot. DeckLink Duo is perfect for servers where there are
multiple streams or simultaneous capture and playback per system. DeckLink
Duo is compatible with Windows™, Mac OS X™ and Linux™.
