Latest hardware revision:
Standalone VGA Grid can now capture more HD content than ever before. The newest Standalone VGA Grid
comes with eight or twelve HD inputs (depending on the model). Half the inputs are for capturing from
DVI/HDMI/VGA sources while the other half are for SDI sources. As before there are also 4 or 6 S-Video ports.
With this combination of available input ports and applicable DVI, SDI or S-Video adapters/converters you can
bring in signals from nearly any source. This hardware upgrade also provides audio capture support for HDMI
and SDI in addition to pre-existing support for 3.5 mm analog audio input ports.
Previous hardware revisions
Previous versions of Standalone VGA Grid came with four or six HD inputs (depending on the model). Many,
although not all, previous hardware revisions can support the latest software release.Use the
feature to see if your device is upgradeable. Note previous hardware revisions do not support
HDMI audio capture.
