108 MBOX ® MINI USER MANUAL
EXTERNAL VIDEO SIGNAL INPUT
Overview
Mbox supports three types of external video inputs: PCIe cards, Blackmagic UltraStudio Thunderbolt, and USB/
Firewire devices. For best performance, Mbox has native support for the Blackmagic (Decklink and UltraStudio) and
the Active Silicon Phoenix products. Other PCIe cards that support QuickTime streaming may work, but not as well.
USB/FireWire devices must output a QuickTime stream.
Mbox Mini allows up to two video inputs per server. The number of inputs will depend on the video input device(s)
used. Each of the two inputs must be set up in advance to work properly with Mbox; setting the input type, input
number, and video format.
CAUTION! To configure Mbox to work with any capture device, make sure the latest version of the device drivers
have been installed.
