BPS is proud to stock the newest addition to the Blackmagic Web Presenter family, the Blackmagic Web Presenter 4K model. The Web Presenter 4K features an upgraded Ultra HD resolution H.264 encoder for live streaming in native Ultra HD.
The new Blackmagic Web Presenter 4K is a compact design that includes a 12G-SDI input with down converter allowing customers to stream in 1080p HD or 2160p Ultra HD resolutions. It simulates a USB webcam when connected to computers, and the USB webcam feature works with both 1080p HD or 2160p Ultra HD resolutions. The new model is also a complete streaming solution that includes a professional hardware streaming engine for direct streaming via Ethernet to YouTube, Facebook, Twitter and more.
The USB connections on the Web Presenter work like a webcam, so customers can connect a computer and use any streaming software. Additionally for redundancy, customers can use an Ethernet or connect a 5G or 4G to stream the internet. The Web Presenter also includes a technical monitoring output that includes video, audio meters, trend graphs and even SDI technical data.
The built in hardware streaming engine has been designed to support live streaming at professional broadcast quality on most popular streaming services. That means customers get a self contained solution for live streaming that works without dropped frames with a simple setup. The Web Presenter is a self contained solution that includes a powerful hardware encoder, software for connecting to streaming platforms, and network connections. This means customers don’t need expensive computer or use complicated streaming software. Customers can simply connect an SDI video source, then connect to the internet using the built in Ethernet connection, or plug in a mobile phone to use mobile data.
The graphics based monitoring output includes a video view, audio meters with accurate ballistics, trend graphs for codec data rates and cache fill, as well as a summary of the streaming settings and detailed SDI technical information. Plus the technical monitoring output works in full 1080 HD and outputs to both SDI and HDMI. Therefore, customers can use an SDI router for monitoring multiple units, or connect a simple HDMI TV.
Furthermore, another feature of the Blackmagic Web Presenter is the 12G-SDI input with support for all HD and Ultra HD formats up to 2160p60. A 12G-SDI loop output is included enabling customers to loop video through a number of web presenters, so customers can stream to multiple services. Teranex conversion technology on the SDI input is featured for incredibly clean looking video. Incoming HD or Ultra HD input signal is taken by the Web Presenter and automatically converted to high quality, low data rate 1080p HD or high resolution 2160p60 Ultra HD depending on the model, which is then sent to the hardware H.264 encoder for streaming.
