Hello Tom,
i’m nerly in a same situation, we got an Hd-Sdi Signal and want to Stream it via Flash Media Live Encoder in a lower resolution, and if it’s possible we want to encode two signals with two cards in one Mashine.

Have you testet the DeckLink SDI Card with the Flash Live Encoder yet? I think this card can downscale the Hd signal on the card, so FMLE don’t have to do the job.
There are serveral postings on the net regarding this problem i.e. https://adobeforums.adobe.com/message/769828#769828 but in the end they are not very helpfull.

My fallback soulutions are to downscale the Hd-Sdi Signal with something like the Teranex Mini, don’t know the price, and then capture with an Sdi Card i.e.

Darim – VT210, supports FMLE, embedded audio, € 850,-
Pixel Magic Systems – SDI Capture Card, supports WDM driver, no embedded audio $ 240,-

would be nice to hear if you got something working,
Hank
