Question / Help Going up a notch - OBS with SDI

Hello everyone

I've been using OBS more and more in the last couple of months and I have loved its stability and flexibility.

I'm wanting to go up a notch quality wise and the cameras I will be using have SDI as well as HDMI outputs.

If I install something like this:

Will OBS see the SDI signal without a problem or are there some pitfalls I need to be aware of like processor power?

Also, if I have both an SDI and HDMI source plugged into this card, will OBS see both? That would be very cool if it did. If not, is there a similar card I should be looking at? I notice Blackmagic do an 8x SDI PCI card. Should I be going for that and converting everything to SDI?

Your advice would be much appreciated.

Best Wishes

Steve
