SDI Master

SDI is a SMPTE protocol for sending uncompressed 4:2:2 CCIR 601 digital video over a single coaxial cable from a source to a destination.

The SDI Master serial digital I/O board gives video professionals reliable, real-time access to uncompressed standard definition video (SMPTE 259M), enabling applications for video effects and video editing. SDI Master is designed to provide users with real-time, frame-accurate capture and playback, batch capture and machine control for Disk Based video recorders.

Our SDI Master PCI interface board is capable of recording and playing back continuous serial streams at eight or ten bits of precision and streaming full-rate video into and out of main memory. We embrace open system solutions through seamless integration into the Windows® Server 2003, 2008, XP, Vista® , and Linux® environments and support the DirectShow® framework. All video input and output is performed from standard files within the standard file system.

This product was designed to allow inexpensive computers to replace dedicated tape decks and other devices that use digital video. We expect to alter the way in which SDI is used in the broadcast industry.
