1. Note that taps expected to come from the same video source can also come from different video sources as long as they are synchronized (genlocked). In this case,
the grabbed data is stored in separate color bands of the same buffer; the buffer can be in planar format.
Performance
The video timing parameters supported by the board are as follows:
Number of pixels / line (including sync and blanking)
Number of lines / frame (including sync and blanking)
Pixel clock for LVDS
Pixel clock for RS-422
Bandwidth
Video sources supported
Matrox Helios eD/XD has four, 16-bit, synchronous or asynchronous, digital
acquisition paths. The following tables describe the video source combinations
from which simultaneous, independent acquisition is supported and the
acquisition paths (P#) to which they must be connected.
