Product description The Epiphan VGADVI Recorder allows you to capture and combine audio, Full HD video, and SD video together. This quiet, portable device has 32GB of on-board recording storage or can record directly to a USB-attached drive. It captures, encodes, scales, streams, and records from a variety of HD and SD sources. The simple web interface lets you choose to record and stream a single stream or both as picture-in-picture or separate streams. The VGADVI Recorder is a standalone appliance for recording and/or streaming video display and camera sources.
The VGADVI Recorder is capable of capturing an HD video source such as a computer monitor, RADAR display, or ultrasound monitor as well as an SD video source such as a camera feed. It then records these inputs as two individual time-stamped streams or one picture-in-picture stream. The recorded content can also be streamed live to remote users' browsers or media players. The VGADVI Recorder is easy to setup and use. It works straight out of the box and does not require the use of a computer or any additional equipment. Simply power it on, plug in your sources, and press the on-device button to start recording. A straightforward web interface is available for custom configuration. - Key Features
