Hi Everybody,  
Currently I use a Blackmagic Decklink to broadcast on my 2nd monitor.  
I’d like to broadcast simultaneously on my Client TV as the 3rd monitor, SDI\>HDMI.  
Is teranex mini supported on Linux ? What are my options ? Thank you.

No need for the pricey Teranex unless you need 8k. For hd only a Blackmagic micro converter sdi to hdmi is sufficient. For 4K they make a version as well.

If your client TV is 1920x1080, then a micro converter will work… [Micro Converters | Blackmagic Design](https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/microconverters)

If your client TV is up to 4K, then a Mini Converter will work…
