XtremeRGB

RGB Streaming

For streaming applications, the XtremeRGB can be used with Windows Media Encoder to compress and stream captured video. To replay the video, use Windows® Media Player. Any application compatible with Windows DirectShow technology can use the XtremeRGB due to its built-in WDM support.

XtremeRGB Software:

The XtremeRGB is supplied with a powerful software application for configuring the timing and format of the input sources and displaying the data. Simply connect your external DVI or Analog source into the card, run the XtremeRGB application to automatically detect the video source format and display the captured video in a window on your desktop. You can also use the software application to record and capture the Analog data at high frame rates and play it back using the EMS XtremeRecorder and XtremePlayer applications.

PhynxVCR
For DirectX WDM drivers we also offer our PhynxVCR digital recorder, similar to the Windows Media Encoder for AVI recording but with a more user friendly interface. The PhynxVCR can record the incoming analog/DVI video and the on-board audio together into an ‘AVI’ file. The recorded file can be uncompressed or compressed using whatever codec’s that is installed within the Windows Media System.

Hardware Overview:

The XtremeRGB has two complete capture channels, each supporting up to 1920 x 1080 DVI or 2048 x 1536 Analog resolution.

The XtremeRGB captures the Analog/DVI data and stores it in an on-board video buffer. This data is then copied using DMA to the host system for display, storage or streaming.

Whenever the VGA/RGB/DVI data is displayed on a non EMS graphics card, the XtremeRGB sends the data to system memory, after which, the operating system copies the data to the display. When a EMS graphics card is used, the XtremeRGB transfers the data directly to the graphics card thereby increasing performance.

This is especially effective when displaying captured data up-scaled to fill a data or video wall. The XtremeRGB sends portions of the captured data to each video channel and instructs each channel to use its graphics engine to update the data. This utilises the hardware and dramatically increases performance.

 

Typical up date rates when used with the EMS Vigilant-X graphics card are:

1 channel at 1280 x 1024

75Hz.

1 channel at 1024 x 768

75Hz.
