Eco Capture M.2 cards offer systems integrators and OEM developers high-performance video capture solutions with low power consumption in a very compact form factor. The cards measure only 22x80mm (0.87x3.15in), making them perfect for use in small or portable systems where full-sized PCIe slots are not available.
Superb OS and API Compatibility
M.2 Eco Capture models are available with drivers for Windows and Linux operating systems, and support x86, x64 & ARM architectures. The devices support OS-native capture APIs, while our SDK provides custom Magewell APIs that enable developers to achieve lower-latency capture and synchronize channels across multi-channel or even multiple capture cards.
Flexible Input Interfaces
Eco Capture cards can capture up to four HD signals or one 4Kp60 signal, supporting HDMI, 3G-SDI, quad-link 3G-SDI and single-link 12G-SDI input. All models support up to eight channels of embedded audio per input.
Lower CPU Usage
FPGA-based video processing provides high-quality up/down/cross-scaling, picture controls and color space conversion without tasking the host system CPU.
Software Compatibility
Support operating system native video capture APIs, including DirectShow, DirectKS, V4L2 and ALSA. Support DirectSound based audio acquisition interface, extended interface based on IKsPropertySet. Compatible with almost all software based on DirectShow architecture.
