This is a standard PCIe capture card — it works on its own in any Windows or Linux PC. A VSN wall controller chassis is only needed if you're building a multi-display video wall; most of our capture cards are sold and used as standalone cards in a single workstation.

About This Product
An eight-channel PCI Express video capture card supporting PAL, NTSC and SECAM in composite and S-Video formats, with de-interlaced capture and display at 25/30fps for real-time video overlays. Delivering 480MB/s transfer bus bandwidth from a standalone four-lane PCIe plug-in card, it suits multi-display presentation software (recommended by Dataton WATCHOUT), digital signage, machine vision, voyage data recorders and simulation/military command & control applications.
Fully integrated with the EMS family of video wall multi-display products, the Ex8 captures composite or S-Video output from a source and displays it as an independent real-time application on your video wall, with configuration software that auto-detects timing and format.
Where This Product Fits
XtremeRGB-Ex8 is the highest-density option in the range for pure SD analogue capture — suited to digital signage estates and command & control rooms consolidating many legacy composite/S-Video sources onto as few PCIe slots as possible. If any channel needs to carry a DVI or HD source, the mixed-input XtremeRGB-Ex4+ or dual-channel XtremeRGB-Ex2+ are the better fit; Ex8 is specifically for all-SD deployments.
Why Choose the XtremeRGB-Ex8?
- ✓High performance DMA with scatter-gather
- ✓On-board processor for real-time mode/sync detection
- ✓PAL, NTSC, SECAM, composite and S-Video
- ✓Dynamic input source selection
The XtremeRGB-Ex8 is backed by EMS's UK technical support and standard 3-year warranty (5-year extended available on most of the range) — get in touch if you're not sure it's the right fit and we'll help you spec it correctly the first time.
