Roland V-8HD is a compact HDMI video switcher for professional Full HD workflows. It mixes eight HDMI sources at up to 1080p60 while...
Four inputs — two 3G-SDI and two HDMI — feed the AVMATRIX Shark S4, a metal-chassis 4-channel video switcher that combines multi-camera live switching, audio mixing, streaming, and recording in one compact unit. Automatic format detection accepts signals up to 1080p60, and a built-in scaler reconciles mismatched resolutions and frame rates on the fly, so cameras and playback devices can be combined without manual reconfiguration.
Two HDMI program outputs, one HDMI multiview feed, a USB Type-C capture port, and an RJ45 LAN streaming connection give production crews multiple delivery paths simultaneously. The Type-C port acts as a UVC device on Windows, macOS, and Linux — instantly recognized by OBS, vMix, Zoom, Microsoft Teams, or any software that reads a webcam source, which simplifies hybrid events and remote consultations. The LAN port streams via RTMP, RTMPS, or SRT at bitrates from 2 to 32 Mbps (CBR/VBR), reaching YouTube, Twitch, Facebook Live, or private media servers without an external encoder.
Tactile control comes from a physical T-bar, AUTO, and CUT buttons working alongside 33 wipe patterns, mix, dip, and fade-to-black transitions. An upstream luma key, chroma key, two picture-in-picture windows, POP mode, one downstream key, and a logo overlay provide enough compositing layers for lower thirds, sponsor graphics, and green-screen talent — all within a single production. The integrated six-channel audio mixer blends embedded audio from every input with two external 3.5 mm mic/line sources, while adjustable audio delay maintains lip-sync accuracy.
Simultaneous recording to USB drive or SD card captures the program in MP4 or TS format, with segment lengths from one minute to two hours and FAT32, exFAT, or NTFS support. A built-in media library holds 39 preset patterns, 16 imported images, 16 captured stills, and two colour generators — ready for slides, test cards, or branded holds between segments. The DB-15 GPIO tally output ties into standard broadcast tally systems for on-air and preview indication. From a four-camera church service to a corporate webinar, a small television studio, or a live e-sports broadcast, the AVMATRIX Shark S4 manages signal routing, compositing, and distribution from one self-contained surface.
