AVMATRIX SE2017 3G-SDI/HDMI Streaming Encoder/Recorder

Features

The AVMATRIX SE2017 is a versatile encoder, recorder, and USB capture device in one compact housing. The device processes both HDMI and 3G-SDI video signals and can simultaneously stream, record, and make them available as a USB webcam. This makes the SE2017 suitable for livestreams, webinars, events, education, and professional AV installations.

In addition to support for streaming protocols such as RTMP(S) , SRT , RTSP , and HTTP-FLV, the encoder features local recording to an SD card or USB storage, HDMI and SDI loop outputs, and support for PoE , requiring only a single network cable for both power and data traffic.

Key features

• Encoder, recorder, and USB capture in one device

• 1× HDMI and 1× 3G-SDI input

• HDMI and SDI loop outputs

• Streaming via RTMP, RTMPS, SRT, RTSP and HTTP-FLV

• Recording to SD card or USB storage

• USB-C UVC output up to 1080p60

• H.264 video compression

• Analog 3.5mm line audio input

• Support for PoE and 12V DC power supply

• Configuration via web interface

• Up to 32 Mbps video bitrate

Operation

The SE2017 receives an HDMI or 3G-SDI video signal and compresses it in real-time into an IP stream. This can be transmitted directly over the network to streaming platforms such as YouTube, Facebook Live, Twitch, Wowza, or a private media server.

At the same time, the same program can be recorded onto an SD card or USB storage medium in MP4 or TS format. Furthermore, via the USB-C connection, the encoder functions as a standard UVC capture device, allowing it to be used without drivers with software such as OBS Studio, vMix, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams.

Thanks to the HDMI and SDI loop outputs, the original video signal remains available for monitoring or connection to a video mixer or recorder. Configuration is handled entirely via a clear web interface, and firmware updates can be performed remotely.

Application

The AVMATRIX SE2017 is suitable for:

• Livestreams

• Webinars

• Conferences

• Church services

• Education

• Sports registrations

• IPTV distribution

• AV installations

• Video production

• USB capture for PCs and laptops

Thanks to the combination of streaming, recording, and USB capture, the SE2017 is a complete solution for both mobile and fixed streaming installations.

Limits

Although the SE2017 is very versatile, there are a few points to consider:

• Only one video source can be used at a time ; HDMI and SDI cannot be processed simultaneously.

• Maximum resolution is 1080p60 ; UHD and 4K video are not supported.

• The encoder supports encoding only; decoding of IP streams is not possible.

• There is no built-in video switcher or scaler present.

• The USB-C port is intended exclusively as a UVC capture output and not for local storage.

• There is no built-in Wi-Fi; network connection is exclusively via Gigabit Ethernet.
