Driver Features

Automatic signal detection

Seamless Adaption to Input Signal Changes (Framerate & resolution)

Driver Profiles

• Pre-defined properties that are applied to a specific video capture filter. 
• When profiles are enabled for a device the video capture filter names have the profile number (P0 – P3) embedded in the name (i.e. Osprey-925 SDI-A P0 Video Device 1). Each profile can have completely different settings with the exception of those that are common to the device (i.e. Profiles enabled) and those that are common to individual sub devices (i.e. Loss of Signal). 
• Any of the predefined settings can be temporarily, or permanently, changed at runtime.

Custom Loss of Signal Insertion

• Choice of blue, black, or colorbars
• Optional custom user text with custom placement and font selection
• Background and foreground color selections
• Selectable audio tone generation (None, 1KHz, 3KHz)

VBI extraction

• DirectShow-compatible VBI pins are provided on the Video Device Capture Filter. VBI data includes Vertical Interval Timecode (VITC) in both the NTSC and PAL worlds. In NTSC, line 21 Closed Captioning (although it is part of the video interval rather than true VBI data), is commonly treated as VBI data. In PAL, World Standard Teletext (WST) is encoded in the VBI data region.
• The driver delivers VBI data as raw waveforms, which are then decoded by external DirectShow filters. DirectShow provides three filters under the classification “WDM Streaming VBI Codecs” that will decode data from VBI pins: 
• CC Decoder 
• NABTS/FEC VBI Codec 
• WST Codec

CC Extraction

• Both CEA-608 and CEA708 specifications are supported
• Can be delivered as Line-21 Byte Pair or as Line-21 GOP Packet
• CC data available through DirectShow VBI pin on Video Device Capture filter. (Both NTSC, PAL, and digital captions)
• Decoded CC available through the DirectShow CC pin on the Video Device Capture Filter. (Only NTSC and digital captions)
• CC data available through V4L2

Unified driver (common driver for all Raptor cards)

Dual Mono Support

• The left and right stereo pair inputs to a device are used as two separate mono channels serving two separate audio capture filters. Connector configuration capabilities (Input, Loopout, Output) should be added. Ability to enable/Disable individual audio channels per connector.
