OpenGL application control: The SDI application programming interface allows

To use this mode, run an application that uses either SDI APIs to make use of the SDI
device.

Basic SDI Setup Under Clone Mode

To ensure proper operation, NVIDIA recommends the following -

Set the desktop resolution to be the same or larger than the SDI output for better
image quality

Stop background applications—such as virus scan, backup and archiving
applications—prior to starting SDI output and going on air.

Close the control panel before going on air.
