Hello,

I've been looking for a reliable video capture card to grab live hd video feeds to interface with Madrix in a permanent museum application.

Does anybody have a suggestion?

it needs to be bullet-proof professional grade with a good warranty.

thanks for any advice.

Declink from Black Magic,

but you are sure you want to handle HD with MADRIX?
What kind of Output?
Just DVI on a projector?
DVI on LED?

The MADRIX ultimate support a dvi resolution up to 1280x1024 pixel, but this is only a theoretical limit which realy depends on the used hardware and what kind of effects you have in mind to use.

thanks for the link -- i'll check it out.

Our output resolution is not huge, but at this point I'm not sure what my source signal is going to be -- I'd like to be prepared for both the high and low ends.

The output is a colorkinetics iColor Flex LMX matrix.
