Stream, record, and encode HDMI, 3G-SDI, and USB video using the LC100N CaptureVision System from Lumens and its NDI|HX input capabilities. The switcher has one HDMI and two 3G-SDI video inputs which supports 1080p60 video and one HDMI input which supports up to UHD 4K video. Two HDMI outputs and one HDMI pass-through output deliver your video to compatible sources of your choice or via NDI. Your program output and up to two individual inputs are recorded for simplified editing. This can be easily uploaded to your organization's Panopto, OpenCast, or Kaltura platform.

Stream your video via Ethernet and various protocols and store it in the system's built-in 2 TB HDD to revisit at a later date. Built-in control buttons and a status screen on the front panel allow you to switch between different display views and channels with ease. Two XLR/TRS combo inputs, as well as the Ethernet and USB ports, support a wide variety of audio sources. The system has an embedded WebGUI program and both RS-232 and RS-485 ports for serial control.

LC100N can receive multiple NDI streams at 1080p, enabling plug-and-play network production. The device can convert HDMI, SDI, and USB sources to NDI|HX, allowing the unit to be used as an IP encoder.

Live control is incorporated into the device, simply plug in an HDMI display to the device output to access the intuitive GUI. Sessions can be produced live or scheduled in advance.

Build layout scenes that incorporate visual effects like split-screen, picture-in-picture, title/logo overlays, and background images. Activate and change layouts.

The LC100 records the mixed program-out video and captures two video inputs with independent audio for simplified archiving and post-production workflow.

The Lumens deployment software enables control, management, and administration of multiple units within a single network. Remotely monitor device status.

If you need a break during streaming, toggle the break time page while simultaneously setting a chapter mark to jump to a particular timestamp during playback.

Q: 1. Can the Kiloview CUBE R1 be rackmounted? I don't see a kit for it or any mention in the manual.

A: The Kiloview CUBE R1 9-Channel NDI Recorder System does not have an rack mounting kit, so if you wish to rackmount it you will have to use a self like the Middle Atlantic UMS1-11.5 Rackshelf with Universal Mounting Pattern (1 RU, 11.5" Depth). See: https://bhpho.to/3VTBl3L

Q: 2. If connecting the 4k Quad to a Network switcher, will each SDI-Input be seen as independent NDI sources or just 1-combined NDI?

A: When converting from SDI to NDI, the BirdDog 4K Quad NDI Encoder/Decoder will output each SDI input as a separate NDI stream.

Q: 3. Will BirdDog 4K 12G-SDI NDI Encoder/Decoder Silicon 2 update add NDi-HX encoding decoding?

A: Yes, the 4K encoder/decoder line will all get the options of full NDI, NDI HX, SRT, and RTMP for the Ethernet jack.

Q: 4. Can this product handle four simultaneous UHD 4K inputs converted to NDI? can it handle the reverse?

A: Yes, this has Four 12G-SDI connections that are selectable between and input or output. This is both an Encoder/Decoder.

Q: 5. Is this one unit or two? Send and receive or is it a unit that does both?

A: This is one box. It is an encoder/decoder so it does both send and receive.

Q: 6. This unit will decode NDI|HX Cameras, like the PTZOptics 30X-NDI Broadcast Camera?

A: No it will not. It will only decode Full NDI video signals.

Q: 7. Will this interfere with any PTZ control if plugged into the same router? ie. to control & video with 1 Ethernet.

A: No, the BirdDog 4K Quad NDI Encoder/Decoder should not impact other cameras connected to your router as far as control.

Q: 8. Is this able to act as both an encoder to encode SDI to NDI through the SDI input, and decoder to decode NDI to SDI through the output simultaneously? Or is the SDI output simply a loop through?

A: The SCIENCE IMAGE NDI Mini HD Bidirectional 3G-SDI/HDMI Encoder/Decoder can only be set to a single working mode of either encode or decode, not simultaneous encode and decode. The SDI output encoder is a looped-out picture, and the decoder is decoded output picture.

Q: 9. Can I use this to decode four P400 cameras from NDI to SDI ? Will it then output each camera on its own SDI out?

A: Yes, this can be accomplished while also using their central pro software: https://bird-dog.tv/centralpro-overview/

Q: 10. The 12G-SDI non-QUAD unit has a separate input and output connector. Can it encode one NDI stream to the network while decoding a different NDI stream from the network at the same time?

A: The outputs would be looped-out signals from the input, which supports only one NDI stream. A different NDI stream from the input is not possible.
