Hello,
Still trying to get to the bottom of this. DaVinci Resolve will let you view 2 streams of SDI, one in HDR and one in SDR. You convert your timeline and clips into 3D. One SDI stream is the left eye and one stream is the right eye.
In the Resolve Manual, there is a section on HDR. At the end of the HDR section, the manual lists several cards that are capable of producing these 2 SDI streams. And several replies to past posts point to that list of cards.
However...
The most up to date generation 2 card listed is the Decklink 4K Extreme 12G. The only documentation I can find says that the 2016 update (and later) for Desktop Video, allows the 12G to support HDR rec 2020 over HDMI.
There is no mention of SDI.
So my questions are:
1. Can the Decklink 4K Extreme 12G really output both HDR (with or without rec 2020) and SDR at the same time? How? Does it also support HDR (with or without rec 2020) over SDI? Does a later version of Desktop Video allow this? Or does the 12G spit out HDR over HDMI and SDR over SDI simultaneously?
2. The documentation clearly states that the 8K pro can do both SDI streams, but it is generation 3. Is the 8K pro backwards compatible to generation 2 pci?
I feel like the answers should be in these documents, but I can't find them:
