The Ultra Encode SDI is a compact streaming encoder with a 3G/HD/SD-SDI input and loop output, built for dual-stream delivery from a simple, compact design. It accepts input up to DCI 2K60 and encodes up to 1080p60 in H.264/H.265 with 2-channel AAC audio, streaming a 16 Mb/s main stream and a 2 Mb/s sub stream at the same time — and can send to two destinations simultaneously on select protocols. It carries 16-channel embedded SDI audio plus a 3.5mm audio input and output, so audio can be embedded into the encoded stream or extracted via the line out. The encoder connects over Ethernet or Wi-Fi and has native support for Facebook, YouTube and Twitch alongside broad protocol support — RTSP, RTMP, RTMPS, SRT Caller, SRT Listener, NDI|HX2, HLS, TS over UDP and TS over RTP — and is controlled via its Web UI or HTTP APIs.
