Kiloview has released a new generation of video encoders: Kiloview E3. It realizes video input and loop through HDMI up to 4K P30 and 3G-SDI up to 1080 P60, encoding HDMI and 3G-SDI video by H.265 and H.264 simultaneously. It also features an enhanced chipset and supports simultaneous transmission to 16 destinations with an adjustable bit rate of up to 100 Mbps. This product will be showcased at ISE for the first time.
E3 allows encoding video sources from any 3G-SDI or HDMI port, mixing both video sources into one output in PIP or PBP mode or even encoding video sources up to 1080p60 from both HDMI and 3G-SDI ports simultaneously for one transmission.
For all IP-based video transmission processes it supports the HEVC video codec as well as H.264.
It has the ability to process either source or a video mix of the two video sources with multi-protocols including NDI|HX2/ NDI|HX3/ SRT/ RTMP/ RTSP/ UDP/ HLS.
The Kiloview E3 system can transmit live to up to 16 different platforms simultaneously by outputting both main stream (up to 8 channels in 1080p) and secondary stream (up to 8 channels in 720p) with an adjustable bit rate. The maximum speed is up to 100 Mbps.
The solution can process rotation/crop and add custom overlays, including images, text or other OSD to the output video.
E3 allows encoding audio sources through its 3.5 mm line input and SDI/HDMI embedded audio input. It can convert audio into multiple formats, including AAC, MPEG-4, MPEG-3, MPEG-2, Opus or G.711. The device supports embedded audio encoding of 8 channels of SDI inputs and 4 channels of HDMI inputs.
The encoder is equipped with a 1.14-inch LCD display with touch buttons. Connectivity, IP address, CPU, memory, resolution, temperature and real-time tally status can be checked on the LCD display.
