Roland's V-1HD Compact 4 x HDMI Video Switcher is a portable solution for HD video production that accommodates up to four HDMI inputs, as well as PC resolutions over one of the inputs. Each input has a frame buffer/TBC and supports frame rate conversion, so you don't need to genlock your input sources together. You can control the switcher manually by using the built-in controls or remotely via RS-232, and it has a tally output for working with live cameras. Select your working resolution and switch between four input sources. Built into the switcher is a 14-channel audio mixer that can de-embed and embed audio signals from HDMI.





The integrated T-fader allows you to manually control the speed of transitions, or you can use the take button to actuate your selected transition. The unit features two HDMI outputs, both of which are selectable between program and multiview (with up to 10 views on each output), and output #2 also supports an on-screen menu display. The V-1HD also features a four-layer effects engine that supports keying effects, PiP, and downstream keys. It has internal memory for four still images, and you can access external drives via the USB port as an additional image source.The Roland UVC-01 USB Video Capture allows you to connect an HDMI source to your computer to integrate the signal into your live streams. Simply connect your HDMI-equipped camera, switcher, game system, or other device to the HDMI input, and then plug the UVC-01 to your computer's USB port using an included USB cable. The UVC-01 supports up to uncompressed 1080p60 resolution and works plug-and-play with Mac and Windows computers.





With your signal sent to the computer, you can use it in various streaming platforms, such as OBS, YouTube Live, and Facebook Live. You can also use your HDMI camera as a webcam using this device, so that you can capture higher-quality webcam video.





The UVC-01 features an ultra-compact and lightweight design and can easily be incorporated into your setup, and it's powered from your computer over the USB connection. While it supports embedded HDMI audio on input and output, it also offers a 3.5mm AUX audio input port for connecting independent audio.
