Supported ultrafast capture devices?

Hey,
Magewell or Datapath offer ultra-fast capture engines (Magewell 64 lines latency) with their pci capture cards (like Magewell Pro Capture HDMI 4K Plus), I wonder if Madmapper supports this natively? Are there possibly differences between Mac and Windows? Magewell fits with its PCIe Gen2 devices theoretically quite well to the old Mac Pro, Datapath VisionSC probably more to windows. Is there any experience?
Thanks and greets,
Matze

The rules are simple:
macOS, we support
- any device compatible with Apple AVFoundation SDK (if it's ok in QuickTime it's ok in MM)
- native BlackMagic driver support
Windows, we support
- any device compatible with DirectShow SDK, part of DirectX. Some devices might not be supported though, but that's rare cases.
- native BlackMagic driver support
