Abstract

Media inputs, such as serial digital interface (SDI) inputs, can be concurrently monitored and ingested. An ingest process can be configured to concurrently monitor each of a set of SDI inputs. A transcoding job requiring content from one of the inputs can send a request over shared memory to the ingest process, which can copy the data to the media transcoding pipeline over shared memory while concurrently monitoring the SDI inputs. In at least some embodiments, multiple processes can concurrently ingest from a single SDI input.
