Blackmagic Design BMD-BDLKMINIREC DeckLink Mini Recorder

Blackmagic Design BMD-BDLKMINIREC DeckLink Mini Recorder

The Blackmagic Design BMD-BDLKMINIREC, most commonly known as Blackmagic Design DeckLink Mini Recorder, is a PCIe slot capture card that is professionally designed with both SDI and HDMI inputs intended for capturing uncompressed 10-bit video from a camera directly right into your computer. With this you are given the ability of ingesting footage as the camera's recording live or from a playback of the camera's recording. The inputs are already active, meaning by the moment you plug a cable into them, those'll begin to function right away. This is built capable to automatically switches between SD and HD, meaning it'll be able of handling all common video formats. The point of ingesting through a capture card is for bypassing unnecessary compression and hence data loss. The card is designed capable of performing just one compression, upon delivery to your computer, where your footage gets encoded into an edit-ready codec of your choice.

Inputs

• SDI 10-bit SD/HD switchable video with 16 ch HD / 8 ch SD embedded audio
• HDMI type A video with 8 ch audio embedded in SD and HD
