The U-TAP HDMI is a compact USB 3.0 capture device that brings HDMI sources into a computer environment for capture and streaming. It accepts HDMI 1.4a input and supports HD and SD formats up to 1080p60. The unit is bus powered and requires no third-party drivers, appearing as a standard UVC/UAC device on supported operating systems. Key features include support for HD/SD capture up to 1080p60, HDMI embedded two-channel audio, and support for YCbCr 4:2:2 10-bit and RGB/YCbCr 4:4:4 8/10/12-bit workflows depending on raster and frame rate. The device performs automatic video scaling to match host application requirements and supports a range of scaled USB rasters. It is silent in operation and designed for portable use. Performance details include capture of 16-bits/pixel YUV video with audio capture at 2-channel 16-bit 48 kHz, and input HDMI audio at 24-bit 48 kHz. Supported video formats include 1920x1080p up to 60 fps, 1920x1080i, 1280x720p, and multiple SD formats. Raster and frame rate dependencies affect available color depths and capture formats. Connectivity is via a single HDMI input and a USB 3.0 (USB 3.2 Gen 1) type connector that enumerates as UVC/UAC for driverless operation on macOS, Windows, and Linux distributions such as Ubuntu and Rocky. The device is compatible with USB 3.0 or better hosts and can function on USB 2.0 though performance and power may be limited. No external power adapter is required as the unit is bus powered at 5V, 3.5W max. Typical applications include live streaming, conference capture, social media content creation, remote production ingest, and on-location recording. The U-TAP HDMI is suitable for capture of camera outputs, computer HDMI signals, and other HDMI-enabled devices where an easy driverless capture path is required. Its compact footprint makes it convenient for mobile workflows and field recording. Installation and use are straightforward: connect HDMI source, plug into a compatible USB 3.0 host, and select the device in your capture or conferencing software. The enclosure is small, rugged, and contains no moving parts so it operates silently and reliably. A three year warranty and AJA support back the product for professional and prosumer deployments.
