4k/HDR/multichannel PCM via HDMI capture into MC Television

(1/5) > >>

latest release can be found here -> https://github.com/3ll3d00d/ezcapture/releases/latest

this is a directshow filter that enables use of a magewell pro card (https://www.magewell.com/products/pro-capture-hdmi-4k-plus) in MC (and other directshow apps)

you can use such cards in MC without this filter so the differentiation comes from

* will automatically try to handle signal changes, mainly this means from SDR to HDR and back (NB: actual support depends on the renderer, JRVR does support this so all good for MC)
* can handle multichannel audio

code is publicly available as is the build recipe, if feeling paranoid then feel free to build it yourself :)

refer to the readme in the repo for installation instructions & how to debug/diagnose problems

So does this work like videoprocessor works for Madvr?

Yes you could use it that way (though this is driven by the metadata in the stream rather than user choice)

mattkhan:
NB: the key difference being you're not pinned to a renderer with an unknown future (madvr)

mattkhan:
Now that video seems done, continuing to work on multichannel pcm, and audio format negotiation. I eventually realised that the channel mapping in cea-861 is different to usual output formats so I need to add some logic to handle whatever is in the audio hdmi infoframe.
