Product Spotlight: Discover Video Spider Multi-Encoder
Product Use
Discover Video Spider live and on-demand video appliance is the perfect solution for streaming and recording up to four video inputs. Built-in video source switching, audio mixing, and Picture-in-Picture (PiP) effects makes Spider ideal for live productions. Simple front panel buttons and dual monitor outputs give you everything you need to produce a live event without needing to haul around a “production board” or audio mixer.
The Spider can stream and record each of the four inputs independently, at primary and secondary rates and resolutions. Each of the four inputs can be the local HDMI input, a video file, or a remote IP stream.
The program encoder delivers primary and secondary streams, delivering your selected input arrangement with the highest quality
at selected rates from 256 Kbps to 65 Mbps.
Simultaneous streaming and/or recording and built-in text and graphics overlay for all outputs provides needed flexibility for
virtually any application.
