Multistream
Datapath’s MultiStream feature is available on all Datapath capture cards and enables multiple
independently formatted video streams to be setup in parallel.
Each stream can be formatted completely independently and individual selection of resolution, colour
space, and cropping region can be set for each stream. This maximizes bandwidth utilisation of the
capture card PCIe interface, and also simplifies development tasks for application developers who do not
need to implement video stream reformatting separately.
