Abe here. Wanted to add that the Roland V-600UHD does have 2x SDI inputs that have multi format support from 3G-12G.

[@dustup2249]

But I thought that NDI / HX meant you could power the PTZ via POE+, the 4K/60 video signal and the PTZ positioning commands over a single Ethernet connection.

[@PTZOptics]

Yes, we forgot to mention the additional SDI ports. Good catch Abe

[@hibbasc1]

@@dustup2249that is true but this is not an NDI compatible switcher. With this switcher, you can power the camera over a network cable by connecting the camera to a POE switch, but you would still need an HDMI cable to carry the signal to/from the switcher.

Hi,
Are there other more affordable 4k video switchers you would recommend? Preferabbly also to have some HDMI inputs.
Thanks!

[@PTZOptics]

Hello,
Yes, there are several more affordable 4K video switchers besides the Roland models that offer HDMI inputs. These switchers can be particularly useful for live streaming, event production, and other multi-camera setups. When considering a more budget-friendly option, it's important to balance cost with the features and reliability you need. Here are a few recommendations:
1. Blackmagic Design ATEM Mini Series
Models like ATEM Mini Pro and ATEM Mini Pro ISO offer HDMI inputs and support up to 1080p, but not 4K. They are very affordable and provide a good range of features including streaming capabilities.
ATEM Television Studio Pro 4K: For a 4K option, this is a higher-end choice from Blackmagic but offers professional-grade features and reliability.
2. Feelworld LivePro L1 V1
Affordable and Compact: This is a more budget-friendly HDMI switcher, though it's important to note that it supports up to 1080p, not 4K.
3. YoloLiv YoloBox
Multi-Camera Streaming: The YoloBox is an all-in-one streaming solution with HDMI inputs, but like others in its price range, it mainly supports up to 1080p.
4. V-1HD, V-1SDI, and V-02HD from Roland
Variety of Inputs: These models offer a mix of HDMI and SDI inputs and are well-regarded for their performance and reliability. They are more focused on HD rather than 4K.
5. OBS Studio (Software-Based)
Cost-Effective: Using a computer with a software-based switcher like OBS Studio, combined with HDMI capture devices, can be a highly cost-effective solution. This setup would require a computer capable of handling 4K video processing.
Key Considerations
Resolution Support: Many affordable switchers support HD resolutions but not 4K. Ensure the switcher meets your resolution requirements.
Input/Output Needs: Consider the number of HDMI inputs you need and whether you require additional output options like SDI or streaming capabilities.
Reliability and Performance: Budget options might come with limitations in terms of performance and reliability compared to higher-end models.
Future Proofing: Think about future needs; investing a bit more now might save costs down the line as your production requirements grow.
Remember, the right choice will depend on your specific needs, including the type of production you're doing, the environment in which you'll be working, and your budget. While there are cost-effective options available, they might come with certain trade-offs in terms of features and capabilities.

Not all social platforms except 4K resolution. UA-cam and LinkedIn do.

Shoot thank you for catching this Jesse.

[@JaviyEve]

So this is a $12k solution? How is this better than black magic’s one?

[@abeinLA323]

@@JaviyEve V-600UHD is at a different category in terms of processing, talking 10 bit 4:4:4 processing. So it's going to look much better for IMAG or live presentations with high detail cannot be compromised. Additionally it has Multi-format support in or out of the unit (down to 720, natively 4k) mix resolutions supported on each input. Supports Multiple frame rates, you even have mixed frame rates on each input. HDR native with SDR support. DCI supported.
