The nVidia WDM AV Crossbar is a video capture and processing driver developed by NVIDIA. It is associated with NVIDIA graphics cards or video capture devices that support video processing features such as video input, video output, and crossbar routing (the ability to switch video signals between multiple inputs and outputs). The WDM (Windows Driver Model) is a type of driver used in Windows for handling video and audio hardware in a standardized way.
This driver is particularly used for video capture cards, TV tuners, or NVIDIA's video capture technology integrated into some of their graphics cards. The crossbar part refers to the ability of the device to manage multiple video inputs and outputs, typically used in more complex multimedia setups (such as video editing, streaming, or recording).
