Video Decoder tab
The Video Decoder tab is a Microsoft DirectShow standard control for setting the NTSC/PAL/SECAM
video standards (Figure 18). We discussed NTSC while discussing the Input tab. PAL and SECAM are
standards used in Europe and other parts of the world. Your Osprey cards can function in computers in
various countries with different standards.

Changes apply to all video previews and stream captures on the currently selected device. If you
have multiple Osprey cards, you can set the input individually for each of them. Changes made with
this control take effect immediately. If video is running and a standard is selected that does not
match the incoming signal, the video is likely to freeze or glitch until the signal matches the correct
standard.
