General description
Video Grabber is real time recording system. It’s able to record digital signal through
DisplayPort interface (DP). Video Grabber has integrated passive video splitter, which
means no interruptions on display even when device is turned off.
Video splitter for passive
mode require up to 500mA on pin 20 which can be provided from monitor or graphic card (or
both)
. Video Grabber is configured through web based menu, no additional software is
required to configure it. The video picture received on DisplayPort pins is captured and
provided to Ethernet ports in a way that is non-intrusive in any way and does not add,
modify or remove any content of the captured video, if minimum 500mA is provided by
Graphic Adapter or monitor. Please note, that Video Grabber supports both lossless and
lossy compression algorithms – in case of using lossy compression algorithms, some
information are definitely lost by the definition of that technique. Please check standards
for specific algorithms for more details.
