  • H.265 and H.264 encoding reduce bandwidth needs
  • 1080p resolution at 1920 x 1080 captures full HD detail
  • 200 ms low latency keeps streams responsive
  • RTMP, RTSP, HLS and multicast protocols suit broadcast workflows
  • HDMI loop-out and 3.5 mm audio input simplify on-site monitoring

HDMI to IP encoder for streaming and broadcast

The BENESTON VMI-HN001-HD converts an HDMI source into IP streams using H.265 or H.264 encoding at up to 1920 x 1080 resolution. It suits broadcasters, IPTV operators and streamers who need to distribute live video over a network. An HDMI loop output lets the source display remain connected while encoding runs.

Sustained operation with low-latency private

The unit maintains a 200 ms latency figure under continuous load thanks to its private low-latency mode. Encoding formats include H.265, H.264 and M-JPEG, while supported protocols cover RTMP, RTSP, HTTP TS, HTTP FLV, HLS, UDP multicast and RTP multicast. ONVIF compatibility allows direct docking with an NVR for recording workflows.

Check power and audio routing before ordering

A 12 V 2 A DC adapter is included and must be connected for the encoder to function. Audio can be taken from the HDMI input or a 3.5 mm external stereo source. Configuration and firmware updates are performed through a web interface, so network access to the device is required during setup.

Questions about this item

How much heat or noise does the VMI-HN001-HD generate when streaming continuously at 1080p?

The unit runs from the included 12 V 2 A adapter and has no fan, so it stays silent and only warm to the touch during all-day 1080p encoding.

Which cables and network gear must I already have to get the encoder on air?

You need an HDMI source, one HDMI cable for input, a second HDMI cable if you want the loop-out, a Cat5e or better Ethernet cable, and a router or switch with an open port.

Will the H.264 stream play on my older NVR that only speaks ONVIF Profile S?

Yes — the encoder supports ONVIF discovery and streams H.264 over RTSP, so a Profile S recorder can find and record it without extra setup.
