The Magewell Ultra Encode HDMI is a single-channel HDMI streaming encoder that compresses video in H.264 and H.265 (HEVC). Its HDMI 1.4a input accepts signals up to DCI 4K (4096×2160) at 60 fps in 4:2:0 or 30 fps in 4:4:4/4:2:2, and a loop-through output mirrors that source to a monitor or switcher without additional splitters. Encoding reaches 1080p60 with a main stream bitrate ceiling of 16 Mbps and a secondary sub stream capped at 2 Mbps — a practical split when you need a broadcast-grade feed alongside a lightweight proxy for confidence monitoring or archival.
Protocol support covers RTMP, RTMPS, SRT (Caller and Listener), RTSP, HLS, TS over UDP, TS over RTP, TVU ISSP, and NDI|HX2 with NDI 6.x compatibility. Built-in presets for YouTube, Facebook, and Twitch let operators go live in minutes. Up to six simultaneous RTMP or SRT sessions make multi-platform delivery straightforward — for example, feeding an SRT stream to a remote production gallery while pushing RTMP to YouTube and running NDI|HX2 toward a local video mixer, all from one compact box.
Network access relies on Gigabit Ethernet, dual-band Wi-Fi 802.11ac, or a USB 4G/5G modem for field situations where wired infrastructure is absent. A 3.5 mm LINE IN adds an external audio source beside the eight-channel HDMI embedded audio, and the LINE OUT feeds headphones or a local PA system. Each stream profile supports up to eight graphical overlays — text, images, or a clock — managed through the built-in Web GUI or via HTTP APIs that integrate with third-party control systems.
Houses of worship stream services through this encoder, corporate AV teams distribute town halls to offices around the world, and esports venues push tournament feeds to several CDNs — no laptop required in the signal chain. The Magewell Ultra Encode HDMI operates between 0 °C and 40 °C, draws under 9 W, and ships with a power adapter, HDMI cable, USB cable, Wi-Fi antenna, and T-bracket ready for rack or camera-side mounting.
