4K HDMI capture for streaming

This AVer capture card accepts unencrypted HDMI input up to 4K at 60 Hz and delivers YUV or JPEG video at 1080p 60 Hz over USB 2.0. It targets streamers, educators and conference hosts who need a driver-free way to bring camera or console footage into OBS on Windows, macOS or Android. The compact black enclosure draws 0.4 A at 5 V and operates from -10 to +55 °C.

USB 2.0 host connection and system needs

The device plugs into a single USB 2.0 port and requires no external power supply. A host PC must provide at least an Intel Core i5-3400 or equivalent mobile i7-3537U at 2.0 GHz, a discrete GPU such as NVIDIA GT630 or GT735M, and 4 GB of RAM. HDMI sources connect via standard AWG26 cable up to 15 metres at 1080p; the card also offers two component inputs for legacy gear.

Sustained capture at 1080p 60 Hz

During long sessions the converter maintains 1080p 60 Hz output while ingesting 4K 60 Hz signals, writing directly to disk without added latency. The USB 2.0 bandwidth caps the recorded stream at 1080p, so producers needing 4K recording should note this ceiling. Thermal limits stay within the stated operating range for continuous indoor or outdoor use.
