AV.io SDI+: Rock-solid SDI-to-USB video capture

Make video capture effortless

With AV.io SDI+, capturing video from SDI devices on Windows, Mac, or Linux is as easy as using a plug-and-play webcam. Simply connect any 3G-SDI, HD-SDI, or SD-SDI device to one end of the capture card and your computer to the other, then select your device as a source in your software. That’s all there is to it – no driver installation required.

Size and scale effortlessly

There’s no need to think about video scaling or aspect ratios with this capture card. AV.io SDI+ will automatically adjust your image based on the software you’re using, delivering superior video quality even when swapping between sources.

Elevate your favorite apps

You can use AV.io SDI+ with any program that accepts USB as a video source. That includes video conferencing apps like Zoom and Microsoft Teams as well as streaming software such as Wirecast and OBS.

Tailored to your installation

The AV.io HD+’s Config Tool allows you to set specific EDID for your HDMI input, customize the output resolution, and label each device, simplifying the workflow for any project, particularly those that use multiple units in the same system.

“I did much research on capture devices and AV.io SDI seemed to be a solid product. A small, reliable, portable, plug-and-play solution, powered via USB – it’s a dream come true!”
