They aren't secret, it's just that the vendor (Active Silicon) doesn't provide
a public download of these files, rather after you purchase the physical card
they'll provide the files (via a password protected site). I'd prefer them to
post them for download publically, as they aren't of use anyways without the
physical card.

I thought it would belong in bad because there are HD-SDI framegrabbers (a
consumer or at least prosumer standard) supported by this in addition to the
more scientific/industrial-oriented standards. If there's another place to put
this I'd be happy to do so.
