The Magewell Pro Capture Hexa CVBS captures six channels of CVBS video and six unbalanced stereo audio pairs over a PCI Express 2.0 x1 host interface.

Description

The Magewell Pro Capture Hexa CVBS captures six channels of CVBS video and six unbalanced stereo audio pairs over a PCI Express 2.0 x1 host interface. Magewell’s second generation of analog PCIe capture card; enables users to cost-effectively convert analog source signals into high-quality digital video and audio data for recording or processing with the latest software. Magewell’s Pro Capture Hexa CVBS capture card provides a reliable; feature-rich; high-quality bridge between analog video sources and the latest Windows, Mac and Linux software applications.

 

While high definition, digital signal formats – and more recently 4K Ultra HD – now dominate the professional production landscape, standard definition analog video transport continues to be important in some countries and in older facilities where legacy infrastructure has not yet been upgraded. Meanwhile, many users still have large libraries of analog videotapes, such as VHS, that have not yet been digitized. The Pro Capture Hexa CVBS, Magewell’s second generation of analog PCIe capture card; enables users to cost-effectively convert analog source signals into high-quality digital video and audio data for recording or processing with the latest software.

Further info …

FPGA-based video processing on the Pro Capture Hexa CVBS provides high-quality de-interlacing; image adjustments, scaling and PAL/NTSC frame rate conversion without tasking the host system’s CPU. The new model also adds powerful features not available on Magewell’s earlier-generation analog capture card; including graphic overlay, support for CEA-608/EIA-608 closed captions, and ultra-low latency as little as 64 video lines.

 

Input sources can be fed to multiple software applications concurrently; each with independent control of video resolution, frame rate and processing. Multiple Pro Capture cards can be used in the same host system for even greater multi-channel capture density; while the powerful Pro Capture SDK lets third-party developers directly integrate the advanced capabilities of the Magewell Pro Capture Hexa CVBS into their own software applications and turnkey solutions.
