Configuring the Viz Engine

Viz Engine configuration differs depending on your intended output types. Graphics can be output from Viz Engines in two main ways:

  • Using the video board in SDI format (SD or HD)

  • Using the graphics board in DVI format

In addition, there is also the option to have video-in, which requires another configuration.

Depending on your needs and hardware, you will have a different version of the Viz Engine installed on each machine. If the machine has a video card, you will install the video version, enabling video-out and video-in. Otherwise, you will install the standard PC version. The Viz Engine installation package automatically detects which version to install on each respective machine. Furthermore, configurations are different according to the selected output format.

To run Viz Config
  • Run Viz Engine in Config mode by clicking Start -> Programs -> vizrt -> Viz Config.

    The Viz Configuration window is displayed.
