XtremeLC-HD HDMI Capture Card 4K

Single channel "LiveStream:Capture" card

Discreet video capture is now the mainstay of many small form factor appliances being uses in markets such as lecture capture, distance learning and medical environments. The XtremeLC-HD provides HDMI capture for use within such applications.

EMS's LiveStream:Capture architecture allows captured video to be processed and delivered in real time to a processor or graphics card. The XtremeLC-HD supports on board colour space conversion and scaling, providing the ability to efficiently transfer the video signal in a suitable format for rendering or encoding applications. The XtremeLC-HD natively supports 32, 24, 16 and 12 bit YUV and RGB formats.

Multi-application capture

The XtremeLC-HD capture card has been designed for use within application models such as:

• Medical environments
• Simulation systems
• Live events
• PC and gaming console capture
• Lecture and presentation capture
• Real time streaming

It is also possible to put more than a single card into a system for multiple capture channels.

Due to the nature of the LiveStream:Capture architecture, the XtremeLC-HD is not supported for wall controller applications that depend on EMS's MultiStream technology.
