About this product

AV integrators demand the highest resolution video, offering both detail and colour accuracy, when creating the most stunning visual displays. From command and control rooms to reception areas, collaboration environments and digital signage applications, the XtremeDV-UHD2 ensures the very best quality and ultimate customer satisfaction. Providing two HDMI 2.0 capture channels with HDCP2.2 support at 4K60p with 4:4:4 chroma sampling, it complements the wider Xtreme capture card family with unparalleled performance in frame grabber technology.

Supports EMS's full Vision Performance feature set, including single-line capture latency, multiple capture instances per card, hardware timestamping, HDMI signal conditioning for longer cable runs, automatic mode detection, and frame-synchronised ganging of inputs (dual 4K into 8K x 2K). An advanced hardware scaling engine uses polyphase multi-tap filtering for clean downscaling and accurate upscaling. Inputs are accessible via any DirectShow/Media Foundation-compatible application — Dataton Watchout, Panopto, vMix, Wirecast, OBS, VLC and others — with a V4L driver for Linux.

Where It Fits

Application & deployment notes

The XtremeDV-UHD2 is the pick when a project genuinely needs true 4K60 4:4:4 image quality from HDMI 2.0 sources — not scaled or subsampled — such as high-end command and control rooms, corporate reception displays, or digital signage where colour accuracy is scrutinised. Two independent channels on one card keep chassis slot count down on multi-source builds.

Where a project needs SDI rather than HDMI, or lower per-channel cost with more inputs per card, the XtremeDV-SDI4 or XtremeAV range are worth comparing before specifying this one.
