I believe I have the stock display card
Panasonic AJD-230H DVCpro deckI need to upgrade to HD. What can get me there with HD and analogue

Hello,
The Multibridges are PCIe only and will not work with your machine.
The only HD solution we have for the PCI-X G5s is the DeckLink HD Pro PCI-X card. This will work with your Digibeta as well as any HD decks that have HD-SDI output. Unfortunately, it does not have analogue inputs and will not work with your BetacamSP deck.
