Matrox Mura IPX 4K Capture & IP Decoder

The Matrox® MURA IPX 4K capture and IP decode cards provide four HDMI inputs for high-resolution capture of multiple physical and IP sources, plus high-density decoding of up to four 4K or 16 HD streams?offering an unmatched audiovisual experience.

These PCI Express® cards can easily satisfy system builder requirements through the mixing and matching of a wide selection of Matrox video wall components, delivering a scalable solution to accommodate any video environment. Ideal for control rooms, digital signage, AV presentations and other applications requiring high-density capture, streaming, recording, decoding and control.


High-Density H.264 Decoding

Matrox MURA IPX 4K Capture & IP Decode cards have been engineered to offer world-class, high-density H.264 codec processes.

Resolution HDMI capture and IP decoding of a single 8K* stream or multiple 4K, Full HD, or SD streams.

Quality decoding through the support of desktop-grade, high-frequency content. Not requiring color space compression.

Number of streams for applications requiring decode and display of a high number of streaming IP sources.


Decoding Support for H.264 Universal Standard

Mura IPX supports high-density H.264 level 5.2 decoding, and thrives on the massive interactivity this produces with 3rd-party hardware and software products. Collectively accepted on the vast majority of network infrastructures, the H.264 codec allows for efficient decoding at low bitrates and high quality (from SD to 8K*) based on user needs.


Dynamic System Scalability

Through the integration of the low-footprint Mura IPX cards, video wall controllers, multiviewers, and personal video walls can be built to the scale required for specific projects. Optimized for performance, Mura IPX provides options to allow greater flexibility in integration while also offering enhanced thermal reliability.


Multi-Source HDMI Inputs for Video Capture

With four Mini HDMI inputs, Mura IPX can capture a wide variety of inputs, dependent on the number of sources and the display resolution required.


Direct Memory Access

Mura IPX series capture cards provide the ability to directly access system or graphics memory for a given application to obtain the raw data and perform a variety of processing operations ?including analysis, warping, and rendering, among others.


Enhance Deployed Matrox Products by Adding Mura IPX

Matrox Mura IPX Series paired with Matrox Mura MPX

• Single-slot input/output cards allow high density, flexibility, and scalability

Matrox Mura IPX Series paired with Matrox C-Series

• Up to 18 synchronized output
• High-resolution monitor support, including Full HD and 4K/UHD

Advanced Video Processing

Optimized to provide robust video processing functions, such as crop, rotation, flip, mirror, alpha blend, and color key, Mura IPX provides a canvas and comprehensive video toolset for smoother post-production effects. Through this functionality, inputs can be adjusted to suit the exact output needs of both in-person users and the remote audience.


IP Connectivity

By enabling the Mura IPX to talk with other devices over the LAN through a network jack, Matrox has extended the ability of video walls from a group of stationary displays to a networked hub of interconnected, interactive monitors. Not only can Mura IPX receive and decode IP streams, but it can also stream encoded video, receivable on other Matrox devices and third party hardware and software.


Adjustable Color Depth & Pixel Transfer Formats

Offering the user the flexibility to control the level of color detail required, Mura IPX allows RGB 8:8:8 & RGB 10:10:10, as well as 8-bit and 10-bit per component YUV color. This means Mura IPX delivers deep 32-bit color, as well as 24-bit true color based on your needs.

Depending on the scenario, it may be advisable to subsample color to save bandwidth. Offering full YUV 4:4:4 color to preserve full-color depth, Mura IPX also permits YUV 4:2:2 and YUV 4:2:0 subsampling to reduce bandwidth load where users will not be affected by the reduction in color detail.
