[Hdmi Video Capture Card For Mac
Oludare Padilla
From what little I saw of it today (it's new to me too), an audio mixer comes with the software. Shouldn't need it if you don't want to use it. It's probably for mixing from multi sources, may be whether it be multi instruments or audio sources from home/business or mixing audio from others streaming with you.
You know when I was making my purchasing decisions, I asked a zillion questions. NO one mentioned this. It is disappointing to discover at the 11th hour that I am going to have to spendeven MORE money.
HDMI on PC is output only, so yes, you'd need an HDMI capture card, either internal or USB. I would think USB version be handier. I've never bought one, but I would think that it would come with any necessary software. Or at the very least, where to download the software from.
No I still have to buy the cable and a new camera but now people are talking about OBS streaming software and mixers. It's beginning to get complicated. I want to make sure that I am not going to find that there is even more to get. I am already 33% over budget with just the computers and I can't keep just spending and spending.
As mentioned, the capture card should come with any needed software. Otherwise, how will the pc recognize it? Hopefully the "mixer" part doesn't get to you. If you don't need it, you shouldn't have to use it.
I'm connecting an XA10 to a computer (Windows) via HDMI with a video capture card, to use the XA10 as a remote camera for a livestream event, but when I connect everything the HDMI output drops to only 480 rather than the 1080 I have it set to push out.
As you can see in the video below, I have the HDMI output set to 1080, but when I attach the capture card to the computer, that setting greys out and the HDMI status says it's only pushing out 480. And I can visually confirm on the computer that the feed is SD and not FHD.
I don't know the manufacturer of the camera card. It's NOT Elgato's product. It's a lower-cost knock-off that I bought from the The Camera Store in Calgary, Canada. I'm working through troubleshooting with them; they say they've never had a customer report this problem before. FWIW, looks like the same card is sold on Amazon by MavisLink, but I suspect they're just using the same manufacturer as the The Camera Store.
Found my solution: Get a better capture card. The HDMI output works just fine with the Elgato Cam Link 4K. You get what you pay for, I guess. I exchanged the knock-off card for the Elgato and all is now well.
It has to be a way. I have always wanted to use a mini PC (barebone) from conferences and classroom (connected via VGA/HDMI to a projector) while using mi Laptop or Windows Tablet as Main / Extension Monitor.
This would be an AMAZING gadget for anyone working in IT!
Making the laptop into a keyboard and mouse and display for a server, or switch, or what have you.
Or Raspberry PI for developers and tinkerers
The way it has been achieved is the display panel itself has two HDMI inputs (on its controller board), one is tied to the SBC and the other brought outside the case as HDMI in, then the unit power switch is a 3 position (on, off, display only).
Just posting that I would also be interested in an hdmi in expansion card. Or even better an Hdmi card that can do both in/out based on mode selection (in bios, software driver, or manual hardware switch next to port).
Alternative 2: Have the framework mainboard connect to the screen using usb c and provide some ability to convert/mount third party screens . We could then upgrade our screen with any portable monitor product (ex: asus zenscreen) that would fit into the framework frame. There are a lot of options in that space (screens with batteries, screens with touchscreen/pen input). This would give framework users a lot of upgrade options without framework having to design and manufacture a bunch of different screen products.
There are single-chip HDMI-to-USB solutions like the MS2130, which should fit in an expansion module. Unfortunately documentation for that chip is rather sparse (read: does not publicly exist at all), but there is this open-source design that makes use of it: GitHub - YuzukiHD/YuzukiLOHCC-PRO: Low cost USB3.2Gen1 HDMI-USB Video Acquisition With Loop Out (Loop Out HDMI Capture Card) base on MS2130 & MS9332
My guess is this would be similar to adding a camera, I'm looking to occassionally add a stream to Channels that I can only access through an app on my Firestick (No TVE). I have a CABLETIME Video Capture Card, a small external device. Some people use this device to stream their video games. In my case, I plug my Firestick into the capture card, which then feeds into my PC Computer that contains my Channels DVR server through USB. I can watch the firestick stream on the free "OBS Studio" on this PC. Does anybody know how to get that stream onto Channels? The card supplies 1080 30fps. Not great but it's watchable.
However, if you got one of those IPTV streamer/capture boxes, you could convert your input device to a m3u stream and since channels can use that as source, however, they are costly and there woudl be latency issues.
Ahh, sorry I don't! I don't recall running into any issues with the video feed itself then. I gave this up a few weeks after posting since the machine I was using for this was separate from my Channels server, and it got to be a bit silly tying up my regular Windows PC for this purpose to constantly stream to it. I've not kept up on it or used OBS really since then. I was just very excited at the time when I got it to work.
I tested it on Ubuntu 16.04 with OBS and works perfectly out of the box via USB in both its "PC" mode and "external storage" mode.
Avermedia doesn't officially support Linux but the "uvcvideo" module does the job flawlessly.
If you want to record HDCP protected content, there is hardware available that can strip this before you input into your capture card. For instance there is a SCART to HDMI converter that also has an HDMI input that passes through without HDCP.
I have an existing boardroom with two HDMI inputs in the table. I'm installing a Windows 10 PC running Webex Meetings. I planned on getting two (different) HDMI-USB capture cards to connect the existing HDMI inputs into the PC. Does anyone know if these capture cards will show up under the Sharing tab during a meeting? I chatted with support and they couldn't confirm it. Anyone have any experience with this? Thanks
Thanks to both of you. I think I'm going to opt out of a wired input and install a Barco Clickshare CX-20 or CX-30. It'll give me an external video input that can be screen shared through the Clickshare software easily within Webex. Thanks again for your suggestions.
They would show up as video devices, and in my experience, not good for detailed content of a computer source, such as text. This is not a Webex limitation specifically, simply not how best to share a full computer output.
Definitely agree @panderson25!
I'm going to suggest what we all know and is rather irksome....but here goes.
You will want to test both. You will ultimately have to own the support of that especially after any driver/app updates.
You'll want to make sure they're not conflicting in any way. I happen to have two physical sources... one virtual application as well.
I have to be careful upon reboots which is the default. Keep in mind.. you'll have to hand hold anyone not familiar with how to change the option.
I recommend looking at a Cisco Kit for this scenario; we have been very happy with Kits for meeting rooms. A Kit can share a PC output in a Webex Meeting at very high quality. You could use an HDMI switcher behind a Kit HDMI input that allow switching between multiple PC feeds, if the Kit you chose did not have enough inputs.
The other way is to use something like LIRC with an IR blaster, an HDMI capture card, and a script or something that hooks into the scheduler of PLEX. I have not seen any DVB cards that work with paid channels since the early 2000s.
@Mastic_Warrior Thank you for that reply. I actually looked at that video and was thinking that may be one of the only ways to go. If I am ok with manually tuning the satellite box, do you know of any internal video capture card that I could maybe pass in an HDMI or Component that will capture whatever comes across?
There are some devices on Ali Express that will do that but their legality in your region may be questionable.
ETAPrime also did a review of an android box that has an HDMI in and it will actually capture anything that it receives as input. you can also record to file from Android directly.
I have been using streaming services almost entirely for years, only got the satallite because my parents have one with Dish. Dish has an add on for 7 bucks a month for travelers / camping and i live in an RV, so I added it and get all their channels, but no DVR.
I have been stream hopping for awhile, but you have to have all of them today. The others are all becoming one and like the big cable companies and as expensive as just getting cable. I used to grab over the air when i was in Chicago where they had lots of channels and clear signal. However now i live in basically a hollar in rural far East TN where if im lucky i can get 5 channels clearly, all but one is garbage.
