Magewell Pro Capture AIO 4K Plus PCIe Capture Card (1-Channel)

The Pro Capture AIO 4K Plus Capture Card from Magewell is a low-profile PCIe x4 add-on card that allows for capturing a single channel of SDI + embedded audio and HDMI + embedded audio. The card supports extraction of audio formation information and channel status data, video timing information, 3D format information, and Sony/Canon DSLR timecode. It is also capable of performing various video processing features, including cropping, scaling, deinterlacing, aspect ratio conversion, color format conversion, video frame rate conversion, and video OSD composition.
