Unlike DV video devices (which use a single FireWire cable), third-party interfaces send
and receive video, audio, and device control data on separate cables. For remote device
control connections on professional equipment, 9-pin (DB9) connectors are used.
A Recommended System Using a Third-Party Video Interface
To set up a system using a third-party video interface, you need the following equipment:
Your computer and display
A non-DV format video device (a camcorder or deck)
Audio and video cables for your system
A third-party capture interface installed in or connected to your computer
Note: Some third-party video interfaces have a breakout box connected to the card
with a special cable, which is included.
A USB-to-serial adapter or internal modem serial port adapter
An RS-422 video deck control cable
A blackburst generator, with the appropriate cables to connect it to both your third-party
video interface and your video and audio devices
