IS Blackmagic DeckLink Quad 2 compitable ?

 

Hi

IS Blackmagic DeckLink Quad 2 compatible with Aximmetry?

Because I need 6 SDI inputs and 1 SDI 50i output for the live show ..OR better buy 2 cards from https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/decklink/techspecs/W-DLK-31?

It’s compatible, but you need the Broadcast edition of Aximmetry for that many inputs and outputs. Keep in mind that the card only supports 1080p and keying looks much better in 4K even if the final output is 1080p. This of course only applies if your cameras support 4K. You could theoretically get 8 4K signals working with 2 Decklink 8K Pro cards, but you’d need a beast of a machine with lots of PCIE lanes.

Hello,

Since your cameras only do 1080P, you don't need to get cards that support 8K or 4K. Unless you plan to upgrade your cameras in the near future, getting the Quad 2 would be the right thing to do in your current situation.

Best regards,
