I have a deck link card. And I've redirected the captured video from it to the v4l2loopback device. It can be done using bmdcapture + ffmpeg or gstreamer. Both work quite well. You can do it with melt too, but technically it uses ffmpeg to interface with v4l2. On Jul 16, 2014 12:23 AM, "Fazekas László" <[email protected]> wrote:
