        including the encoder, which feeds the usb
      • unless someone adds the feature to the firmware

        Cool - That fits with what I was expecting. So the next question would be, How can i stream 1 (or 2) inputs via ethernet. i.e. what would I need to receive these streams.
      • CarlFK
        mithro: does it stream over ethernet yet?
      • mithro
        No streaming via Ethernet, just control
      • arcticShadow: It is only possible to get a single stream via USB
      • arcticShadow: There is a FAQ about video resolutions and capabilities at https://opsis.hdmi2usb.tv/info/video-info-faq.html

        Thats an interesting read, thanks.
      • mithro
        arcticShadow: It's also complicated by the fact that what the hardware can do and what the current firmware can do are two different things
      • arcticShadow
        I'm getting that impression :-D
      • mithro
        arcticShadow: IE We only started getting working Ethernet middle of last year
      • CarlFK
      • "...stream more then one input source (assuming the bandwidth allows).

        arcticShadow: Being an FOSS project, we are driven by people's avaliable spare time and the limited amount of funding / hardware that I'm willing to provide (instead of spending it on beer :)

        I'm keen on the Open Aspects of the hardware/software combinations, particularly in this case because I can see applications right now where this stuff would be immensely useful over other corporate solutions. For Example, at present i have access to 2 black magic thunderbolt hdmi/sdi capture devices, and have been involved in streaming/recording a number of events for my company. however the nature of the black magic devices, and the complic
      • ations of the software make it not an easy to use solution. I was introduced to the open hardware/software by xfxf at a conference in Wellington a couple of weeks back, and i've been look at it in my free time to see if I could put together a standalone 'streamer' that can plug in and go. I'm quite familiar with FOSS projects (being a web developer for a living) and I really appreciate all the effort and contributions that people make.

        arcticShadow: Ahh cool! A lot of us are here in Australia
      • arcticShadow
        In retrosepct, I probably should have started with an introduction like that before asking questions :-D

        arcticShadow: What conference?

        arcticShadow: Long term, the TimVideos.us project aims to make a "conference recording in a box" which can be used by someone who has no knowledge of A/V systems
