System requirements

System requirements

System requirements are the barebones technical essentials your computer needs to work with your Epiphan 
video grabber. System requirements to use SDI2USB 3.0 are:

capture from HDCP encrypted sources)

Video capture workstation

Any computer (laptop/desktop/other format) with: 

 

l

a compatible USB 3.0 host controller for SuperSpeed 
operation (recommended  Intel ® USB 3.0 eXtensible 
Host Controller); or, 

 

l

a USB 2.0 controller

Video capture workstation 
operating system

Windows 7, Windows 8.1, Windows 10 
Mac OS X 10.10 and up

Note that the latest versions of the Epiphan drivers for SDI2USB 3.0 (starting with release 3.30.2) 
use SHA-2 signing which is not supported on Windows XP or Windows Vista. If you want to use 
either of those platforms, we recommend using an older driver. Windows 7 and Windows Server
