I have been out searching for a Duel HDMI/DVI Capture card for some time and came across this product. Does anyone have any experience with the Osprey 820e

For the price, I'd be tempted to try two BM Intensity Pro cards first.
How did you come across it? ;)Quote:

Channel density refers to how many channels of input you can get on one card. Andrew is looking to get more channels of input, which is limited to how many PCI-E slots he has.Quote:

You might want a dual quad or dual 6 Xeon with that.
I have heard of people running two Quads on 12 Core MacPro with Wirecast. I suspect the same would be possible on HP Z800 on Windows.
Problem there is that thats SDI, a lot of my clients want HDMI inputs.
I would love to see black magic make a Duo or Quad Intensity pro
Blackmagic HDMI to SDI convertors at $295 eachQuote:

While the overall solution might seem pricey with Quad at $995 and each convertor at $295 (nearly $2200) that works out to about $550 for each input and with SDI, unlike HDMI, it's very easy to do long cable runs.
I can't help but feel there's either market or technical reasons why that hasn't happened. I can only guess.Quote:
