Video input via thunder bolt capture card

Hey!

So I would like to take an output from resolume and input it into Madrix using a thunderbolt video capture card with a Mac mini running windows 8 via boot camp.

Is this going to work?

What is the maximum resolution that Madrix can handle?

Hello VR Lighting,
.
In MADRIX it is possible to use a capture card to receive a video stream and display it on the fixtures which are controlled by MADRIX. Therefor choose in MADRIX the "SCE Capture" effect and select the desired capture device.
.
When you want to use a thunderbolt video capture card please make sure that the manufacturer of the desired capture card provides drivers for "Microsoft Windows". MADRIX can only work with the device when "Windows" has recognized this device and the installation of the driver was successful.
.
The resolution depends on the capture card respectively on the driver of this device. MADRIX can handle all the provided resolutions.
.
If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us again!
Thank you.
