SDI output, what card or decoder?

Hello

I need help, I appreciate any ideas 🙂...I need to output SDI.

I am building a server. It is a video server. It is connected to our TV studio and to the HotBird matrix and sattelite broadcasting.
What the server will do is:

1) playing the MPEG-2 files from a play-list (these files are transferred to this server via FTP)
2) Playing the streaming which comes from the studio. (the streaming will be over IP, H264 or MPEG format).

in both cases the server will give out an SDI output (Serial Digital Interface) which is an uncompressed video format used for broadcasting.

what should I get to provide the SDI output? a decoder? a Nvidia FX 3000/4000/5000 series card? or anything else? I am kind of lost at this...

will a fx 4600 do this job? but it is of course very expensive with SDI output.

I appreciate any help.

regards
Ed
