• Unicast and multicast streaming support.
• Multiple Simulcast and backup enabled by 3 RTMP Streams Simultaneously.
• The total number of simultaneous streams is eight.
• * The streaming performance depends on the resolution settings, transfer rate, and network environment.
• Offers RESTful API for integration into control systems in commercial AV installations.
• Versatile audio I/O connections via balanced analog Euroblock low-voltage wire connectors and unbalanced analog 1/8" (3.5mm) mini-stereo jacks.
• Audio can be embedded from analog sources and de-embedded to drive networked audio playback for ceiling speakers.
• Provides digital audio embedded within the HDMI I/O.
• Installed output level configuration function and reference level switching function (up to +20dBu) allows reliable and flexible system structuring.
• Ability to record directly to USB connected media or SD cards via a front panel loading slot.
• Recording to internal storage (17GB) is now supported (maximum capacity of each file recorded is up to 17GB). (V2.0.1)
• MP4 is added to the recording file format in addition to TS. (V2.0.1)
• Recorded files can easily be uploaded to an FTP server automatically for creating back-up copies or repurposing to the web.
