C21 Video is an Osprey Reseller for it's audio video capture cards.Now simply called Osprey, in 2014, Variosystem took over ViewCast and today, continues to develop the cards.
Osprey 100 – Video Capture Card for PCI. PCI Analog Capture for Video Only Workflows. The Osprey 100, the video capture card that helped start the streaming media revolution, is still an excellent choice for budget-conscious users with a need to capture and deliver video from composite and S-Video sources. About Osprey Video 480e The Analog PCIe Series of Capture Cards offer a wide range of input selections. Ideal for mission critical video capture, deploy two or more cards in a single workstation or server chassis for maximum input density.
Osprey Talon G1 Hardware Encoder
Osprey Talon Encoder is a small form-factor H.264 video encoder designed to be easy to use, portable, and easily stream both your standard definition and high definition content to broadband and mobile networks in H.264 to RTMP servers. It features a fanless design with a low power consumption of <6W. The wide input voltage range of 9VDC – 17VDC also make it a perfect candidate for battery operated equipment and installations. The Talon features two operating modes. MBR mode allows to stream one source to three destinations, LC mode is ideal for lecture capturing as it allows two sources to be streamed to two destinations.

High Quality Video Capture and Encoding requires a careful selection of a suitable Motherboard, CPU, Memory and more importantly, correct PCIe bus architecture. As this can be a very time consuming and expensive task for end users, Osprey Video decided to evaluate components that could be assured to work seamlessly with any of our Osprey Video Capture Cards. Now, not only can the customer receive pre-tested hardware, but also the benefit of a single point of contact for support whether it involves the hardware, PC platform or the Osprey Video Capture card.
STANDARD Base System FANLESS Base System
All platforms come pre-loaded with Windows 10 and feature Osprey Ceylon Encoding Software.
System Requirements for Success with HD
The Osprey high definition (HD) video capture cards require intense bandwidth across the system bus, CPU, and memory. The host computer system capabilities (CPU, RAM, and motherboard) must be capable of processing this amount of data. The following system requirements are required to achieve the best HD performance.
Install the Osprey video capture card in a PCI Express® (PCIe®) slot with direct lanes to the CPU or a Northbridge or IOH.
The selection of the CPU is critical. To process full HD video on both channels of the Osprey 820e, the minimum processors required are dual i7-3930K@3.2GHz.
