Make Live Streaming Easy!
Blackmagic Streaming Encoder is a self-contained solution that features a powerful hardware encoder and utility software with a wide range of presets. This makes it incredibly easy to connect to most streaming platforms. That’s a solution that doesn’t require a computer running complicated streaming software with hundreds of settings. Everything you need is contained in a simple â…“ rack width design! Simply connect an SDI video source from a live production switcher, then connect to the internet via the built-in Ethernet connection. Or plug in a smartphone to use mobile data! With built-in settings for popular streaming platforms, just enter a streaming key and press “on air “!
USB Webcam Output for Video Software
Blackmagic Streaming Encoder offers two USB-C connections that can be used as a webcam video output. That means you can plug into any computer and work with any video software. The software is tricked into thinking the Streaming Encoder is a common webcam, but it’s really a broadcast quality SDI video source! That guarantees compatibility with any video software in full resolution 720p HD, 1080p HD or 2160p Ultra HD quality. Imagine connecting a Blackmagic Streaming Encoder to Microsoft Teams, Zoom or Webex, then calling your client in broadcast quality! Blackmagic Streaming Encoder works with a massive range of video software, and any software that works with a webcam will work!
Built-in Technical Monitoring
Traditional broadcast transmitters are super important for a TV station, but now the streaming server is just as crucial because millions of viewers can watch from all over the world! To help, Blackmagic Streaming Encoder incorporates a comprehensive technical monitoring output feature. The graphics-based monitoring output provides a video view, audio meters with accurate ballistics, trend graphs for codec data rates and cache fill, and a summary of streaming settings. It also includes detailed SDI technical information. Plus the technical monitoring outputs to both SDI and HDMI. That means you can use an SDI router to monitor throughout a facility, or simply connect a basic HDMI TV!
Built in Redundancy Keeps You On Air!
Serious broadcasters love redundancy because it increases reliability. Blackmagic Streaming Encoder offers redundant features to guarantee your on-air connectivity. You can connect to the internet using either the built-in Ethernet connection or a tethered phone for 5G or 4G mobile data. The internet automatically switches to a backup connection in case of an outage! The unit is compact and inexpensive, making it easy to use two separate units to stream content to both the primary and secondary YouTube servers. With both AC and DC inputs, you can even use a battery for redundant power. There are even front panel buttons and menus, plus the Blackmagic Streaming Utility software for control.
Place Global Remote Cameras Anywhere!
Now you can place cameras remotely, anywhere in the world as Blackmagic Streaming Encoders can transform any camera into a streaming source! Place a camera in a remote location, connect it to a Blackmagic Streaming Encoder and generate a H.264 HD live stream that is sent over the internet back to the studio. Plus most Blackmagic Design cameras have built in streaming such as Blackmagic Studio Camera Pro, PYXIS, URSA Cine and URSA Broadcast G2! The live stream is received in the studio by a Blackmagic Streaming Decoder where it’s converted back to video for connection to a switcher. The Blackmagic Streaming Decoder can even send tally, talkback and camera control back to the camera!
Better Quality Webinars
Now your webinars can look better than ever, because Blackmagic Streaming Encoder lets you stream up to 1080p60 HD or 2160p60 Ultra HD, which is much better than low resolution webcams. It simplifies all of the setup so you can focus on delivering your content to subscribers! You can even use an ATEM Television Studio which will allow you to add multiple video sources. Simply plug in your cameras, connect to your Streaming Encoder, and start streaming to your favorite websites. You can also connect audio sources to ATEM Television Studio’s audio inputs to have music playing in the background with a slide on screen while your audience waits for the presentation to start.
