Is it possible to make the input stream of the SRT be transmitted from the server to the capture card decklink 8k pro or simular ?
Hello,
Yes, it is possible to transmit an SRT stream from a Wowza server to a DeckLink 8K Pro or a similar capture card, but it requires an additional step. The DeckLink 8K Pro is designed to handle SDI video signals and does not support network protocols like SRT directly. To make this work, you need software that can receive the SRT stream and then output the video through the DeckLink card. One commonly used option is FFmpeg, which allows you to set up an SRT input and route the decoded video to a DeckLink device.
ffmpeg -i “srt://wowza_ip:port” -f decklink -pix_fmt uyvy422 “DeckLink 8K Pro”
Software like vMix, OBS with the right plugins, or Wirecast can also be used, as they support SRT input and SDI output through DeckLink.
