Overview
The Epiphan VGADVI Broadcaster captures, combines, records, and streams audio, Full HD video, and SD video. This quiet, portable recording and streaming device can stream directly to a handful of viewers or reach a broad audience via multicast or a content distribution network (CDN). The VGADVI Broadcaster can also provide content to your set-top boxes and digital signs via UPnP and SAP network announce protocols.
The VGADVI Broadcaster captures HD video from sources such as computer monitors, RADAR displays, or ultrasound monitors, as well as SD video signals such as from a camera feed. The VGADVI Broadcaster can stream these sources as two synchronized, time-stamped streams or a multi-source layout with customized branding. Streams can be remotely accessed through web browsers, media players, mobile devices, or set-top boxes. Streams can be recorded to local storage and downloaded at a later date. The VGADVI Broadcaster is easy to setup and use, and works straight out of the box. Once configured, it does not require the use of a computer or any additional equipment -- simply power it on to start encoding and streaming.

- Supports Multicast Streaming via UDP using RTP, MPEG-TS RTP, MPEG-TS and publishes to streaming servers (CDNs) via RTMP and RTSP
- Media players, smart TVs, set-top boxes, digital signs etc. can play live streams and saved recordings from the VGADVI Broadcaster via UPnP or SAP
- Streaming via UPnP and/or SAP is ideal for situations when the destination device is unattended (For example, when VGADVI Broadcatser streams to a digital sign that continuously plays a video, the live stream resume feature automatically resumes the stream if there is an interruption
- VGADVI Broadcaster supports widely used video codecs to ensure maximum compatibility with commercial viewing software media players such as VLC and Adobe Media Player
- Choose codecs to help you maximize your stream quality while minimizing the demand for system resources and bandwidth
- Use the default settings, or fine tune the operation to your application
- Video frame rate, encoding bit rate, and key frame interval are among several parameters available to tailor the encoding to your specific requirements
- Whether you are recording highly dynamic full motion video or slowly changing instrumentation displays Epiphan Broadcasters enable you to direct the encoder to achieve optimal video quality while satisfying bit-rate and file size constraints of your specific application and environment
- VGADVI Broadcaster supports widely used audio codecs to ensure maximum compatibility with commercial viewing software
- Use the default settings, or fine tune to meet your requirements
- VGADVI Broadcaster can record the streaming output
- Stores the video files to an internal solid state memory, with 8 GB of storage, in AVI, MPEG-TS, or MOV format (common and easy to use formats)
- Automatically deletes the oldest recorded file when disk space runs low and replaces the file with a current file to ensure the latest recordings are available
- Manage the size of your recorded video files by configuring the VGADVI Broadcaster to start a new file based on a time or file-size limit (when the limit is reached, the current recorded file is closed and available for download while a new file is opened for continued recording -- all without missing a frame)
- Store the files on the device itself -- this is useful when you don't have access to a network or an external device, and you can always download the files later
- You can transfer the recorded files to an external USB storage device or local network storage via FTP, RSYNC, or CIFS to ensure you don't run out of disk space on your device and facilitate 24/7 recording
