Osprey 240e

The Osprey 240e is a single channel card. It has multiple video inputs, but you can select only one of them at a time. The inputs that are selectable depend on the type of dongle used. Two types of dongles are available for this board – Composite/SVideo, and YPrPb.

The connections for the Composite/SVideo dongle are shown in Figure 14.

The YPrPB dongle is primarily for YPrPb (Component) inputs, as shown in

Figure 15. YPrPb dongle connections

The blue Pb input can also be used as a Composite input. The driver should be set to Composite when thePb input is used this way.

Osprey 450e

The Osprey 450e has four separate independent video channels that can run simultaneously. You can use the board with or without an optional auxiliary expansion connector.

When the expansion connector is not installed, the only video inputs available are the Composite BNC inputs on the board’s mounting bracket. The four connectors correspond from top to bottom to channels A, B, C, and D. In this case, the Video Input control shows just the one input for each channel, which is selected automatically.
