Hi Folks.
We recently shipped a product called NDI ScanConverter (http://sienna.tv/ndi) which is used to send OSX computer desktop through the NDI IP Video protocol. Some of the features include the ability to select a single window to output, or even to select a crop area on the screen to zoom into on the output - so its quite different to simply taking an HDMI out of a display adaptor. It also manages output of Audio. A good example would be to select an area of webpage and present that on the SDI out - without using a fullscreen mode.
Later we realised that this functionality might also be useful for BlackMagic Users, but instead of NDI, to send the desktop directly out of the SDI output, including embedded audio. Since 90% of the work was already done for the NDI ScanConverter, this new application 'SDI ScanConverter' is already finished
The software should work with all BMD interfaces, so far tested with DeckLink DUO2 on MacPro and UltraStudio Mini Monitor on MacMini.
I wanted to ask the forum about their interest in SDI ScanConverter, and get any feedback on additional features or applications for this product.
I have embedded a screenshot which shows how the software interface is setup, and the various options. If anyone has any comments, suggestions or otherwise, please let me know.
Thanks for your feedback.
