About NVIDIA Graphics to SDI

CHAPTER

ABOUT NVIDIA GRAPHICS TO SDI

Serial Digital Interface (SDI) is a digital, uncompressed high quality video format used for

film and video post production and broadcast applications. The Quadro FX 4000 SDI

graphics card converts composited video and graphics to uncompressed 8-bit or 10-bit

SDI output.

About This Document

This manual explains the graphics-to-SDI functionality of the NVIDIA Quadro FX 4000

SDI graphics card and software, described in the following sections:

•“NVIDIA Graphics-to-SDI” on page 3 lists the supported SDI features and explains the

basic operation in a broadcast environment.

•“Using the Graphics to SDI Control Panel” on page 11 describes how to use the Display

Properties control panel to set up and start the SDI output.

•“API Control” on page 23 gives an overview of API control of the SDI functions.

For instructions on installing the graphics card and drivers, refer to the documentation

that accompanies your Quadro FX 4000 SDI graphics card.
