SKAARHOJ Eth-SDI Link
Introduction
The SKAARHOJ ETH-SDI Link mainly functions as a device that receives Blackmagic Camera Control data
over UDP and embeds it on SDI (“ETH2SDI” Firmware). However, an alternate firmware is available.
“ATEM2SDI”
firmware: Embeds color data on SDI in a situation where a network connection to an ATEM
switcher is feasible while an SDI connection is not, for instance if there are thousands of kilometers
between the ATEM and the camera and a VPN can be used to channel the network through. In such a
scenario, the ETH-SDI Link would establish a network connection to the ATEM and use it to extract the
data otherwise embedded on SDI out of the switcher and embed it “locally”. Requires low latency
network.
When using the Eth-SDI Link eith the Eth2SDI firmware in a Blue Pill environment, it will automatically
switch to receiving commands via TCP, this is not possible with the Atem2SDI firmware or in a UniSketch
only environment.
