How to add more media inputs?

I run a high school live broadcast each morning. We currently have a few options for media, but are looking to expand our media sources so that we can add more graphics to our broadcast. Our current setup is as follows:

- 2 media players (built into 2 m/e switcher)
- 1 HyperDeck SSD playback
- 2 computers with DeckLink and Premiere

I am wondering how we should (cost efficiently) add more inputs. I noticed that in some black magic marketing shots for the 2 m/e switcher, which is what we have, they show 4 media players. Additionally, is it possible to add more than one DeckLink to each computer? Then, I assume we would use the media organizer software instead of premiere. Any other suggestions to getting more graphics/video inputs would be appreciated.

Pay no attention to BMD marketing shots it's all contrived and photoshopped images and bares little to no resemblance to what the gear can actually acheive.

You can use as many cards in the pc as you have bandwidth and capabilities for. Although you'll have to find a software capable of driving them all as you can only run a single instance of the BMD software at anyone time.
Something like medialooks direct take or millumin should handle multiple cards or cards with multiple outputs.

You might take a look at ProPresenter. It will take in many different formats, you can set up a run of show, and go through multiple video playback using a single source. You could even add in a key channel module for playback of graphics with an alpha channel.

You could also try the free CasparCG.

The 2ME/4ME Broadcast mixer does have 4 media players Not sure about the 2ME production studio.. But the Broadcast 4K does have them..
