The XtremeDV-DP2 is a PCIe Gen 3 capture card with two DisplayPort 1.2 inputs, each capturing up to 4096×2160 at 60Hz. It is designed for capturing workstation, simulator and visualisation outputs, and uses locking connectors for permanent installations.
Each channel captures up to 4096×2160 at 60Hz (616 Mpixel/s per channel). The input timing is read directly from the DisplayPort signal, and a Frame Sequential 3D mode is included for stereoscopic sources.
Inputs
- DisplayPort 1.2
- Two independent inputs with locking connectors, each up to 4096×2160 at 60Hz.
- HDCP
- Supported when the source is an EMS (XtremeImage) graphics card.
- 3D
- Frame Sequential 3D mode for stereoscopic sources.
Outputs
- To the computer
- 6 GB/s net across an eight-lane PCIe Gen 3 interface, with a 768MB frame buffer.
- Formats
- RGB 4:4:4 (16, 24 and 32-bit with alpha), YUV 4:2:2 (16-bit) and 8-bit mono.
Applications
- Operator workstations
- Capture a control room PC's DisplayPort output for recording or a video wall.
- Simulation and training
- Flight and vehicle simulators and visualisation rigs that output DisplayPort.
- Permanent installations
- Locking connectors where a loose cable is not acceptable.
- Standalone capture
- One workstation recording or streaming its own sources. No wall controller is needed.
Installation and software
- The card
- PCIe x8, 110 × 177mm. Up to about 16W.
- Drivers
- The EMS unified driver covers Windows 10, Windows 11, Windows Server 2019 and 2022, and Linux.
- Software
- DirectShow (WDM streaming), for Microsoft Media Encoder, VLC, VirtualDub and other DirectShow encoders.
Range and alternatives
- If the sources are HDMI, XtremeDV-UHD2 (two 4K60 HDMI 2.0) is the direct equivalent; XtremeDV-HD4+ gives four HDMI channels.
- For DVI or analogue RGB outputs from older workstations, see the Mixed-Signal Capture Cards.
