21.3 BlueFish444 Iridium|SD

BlueFish444 Iridium|SD is the native successor of the Digital Voodoo DeepBlue LT and

the predecessor of BlueFish444 SD Lite Pro Express , providing Fill, Key, GenLock and

Composite Fill connectors. The Iridium|SD is fully compatible with older DeepBlue-LT

installations.

The card was mostly used with Viz Trio NV which basically was a system with the ability

to run a Viz Trio client with local preview and video output on a single machine; hence,

there was no video input or video playback support as with the Matrox X.mio Series .

The local preview was able to render a different scene than the one being output on

video. The card was typically seen on HP xw4600.

IMPORTANT! Viz Engine 3.5 or later no longer officially supports the Iridium|SD

card. For supported versions, see the most recent BlueFish444 cards.
