Multi-Input Video Processing

The single-channel TAO 1mini can encode one live input source via either HDMI or UVC, or mix video from the HDMI and UVC inputs (picture-in-picture or side-by-side) into a combined output. Up to eight user-configurable overlays, including text, images, and a clock can be applied to the output profile.

The TAO 1mini supports multiple video encoding formats, including H.264, H.265 (HEVC), NDI|HX 2, NDI|HX3, and full NDI and a wide array of delivery protocols including RTMP, RTMPS, SRT, RTSP, RTP, and HLS. Up to eight channels of audio can be encoded in AAC format.

Powerful Encoding & Streaming Capabilities

In Encoding mode, video can be encoded at resolutions up to DCI 4K 4096 x 2160p60 frames per second from HDMI sources, or up to 4096 x 2160p30 frames per second from the UVC input. The TAO 1mini can stream to up to 32 different target destinations simultaneously at bitrates up to 32 Mb/s per stream, with TAO APP connection.

Leading Decoding Capabilities

In Decoding mode, the TAO 1mini will automatically adapt the Full NDI, NDI|HX2, and NDI|HX3 format as your end needs. The TAO 1mini will take care of your 4K60 video transmission.
