Inputs
DVEOUS supports up to 12 video and/or key inputs with a variety of input
modules. The modules handle two inputs each. Input module types available
are serial component digital, parallel component digital, 8-bit or 10-bit compo-
nent analog (including RGB and most Y/R-Y/B-Y formats), and 10-bit com-
posite analog (both NTSC and PAL); all support either video or key signals.
However, the two 10-bit analog input modules (component and composite)
support one dedicated video and one dedicated key input. All analog formats
are automatically converted to component digital for internal processing.
Crosspoint Matrix
DVEOUS' Combiner board has a 16 input by 11 output crosspoint matrix
that lets you route sources internally. You can route any source in the matrix to
any destination fed by the matrix. These are the 16 matrix inputs:
