OnTheAir Video PCI versions are very similar; the only thing that differentiates one from another is the number of outputs (channels) you can do on a single Mac.
- the SINGLE PLAYOUT version is to be used for one channel playout,
- the DUAL PLAYOUT version is for users who wants to playout 2 streams on the same Mac,
- the QUAD PLAYOUT version is for users who wants to playout 4 streams on the same Mac.
Note that the SINGLE PLAYOUT version requires just one license, the DUAL PLAYOUT version requires two licenses and the QUAD PLAYOUT version requires four licenses of OnTheAir Video with any options.
Note as well that when outputting multiple channels on a single Mac that there are hardware limitations. You should test your configuration to make sure your computer CPU, hard drive and memory will handle the amount of data to process multiple outputs before purchasing multiple licenses. You can test you configuration with the DEMO download which is fully functional, it just outputs a watermark on the output.
You will need a video card that supports either multiple outputs on a single card or multiple cards in one Mac.
The QUAD version of OnTheAir Video takes advantage of the Decklink DUO from Blackmagic-Design. By installing two Decklink DUOs in one Mac, you can have a total of four outputs. (Note: Decklink drivers 7.7.2 or later required.)
