BENESTON VMI-HN001-NDI H.264 H.265 HDMI NDI 1080P Video Capturing Device

SKU CH-F10Z-BRZJT

Captures 1920 x 1080p HDMI video with H.264 or H.265 encoding and NDI output at 200 ms latency

  • NDI® encoding enables direct IP video workflows
  • H.264 and H.265 compression reduces bandwidth needs
  • 1920 x 1080p capture at low latency
  • HDMI loop-out passes signal to local display
  • 5 mm input adds external audio source

BENESTON VMI-HN001-NDI HDMI to IP encoder

The BENESTON VMI-HN001-NDI encodes HDMI video into IP streams using H.264 and H.265 compression. It supports NDI protocol for integration into live production workflows. The device accepts a 1920 x 1080 input and provides an HDMI loop output for local monitoring. It is suited for broadcasters and streamers needing a hardware encoder for RTMP, RTSP, HLS or UDP multicast delivery.

Sustained encoding with Ambarella S6LM SoC

The Ambarella S6LM system-on-chip handles continuous H.264 and H.265 encoding at 1080p without relying on host CPU resources. A private low-latency mode operates at 200 ms for real-time contribution feeds. Multiple protocols including HTTP TS, HTTP FLV and RTP multicast run simultaneously for redundant distribution. The fanless chassis maintains thermal stability during extended broadcast sessions.

Verify HDMI source and network infrastructure

Confirm the source outputs a 1920 x 1080 signal compatible with the encoder's maximum resolution. Audio can be embedded via HDMI or fed through the 3.5 mm stereo input for separate capture. A wired Ethernet connection is required for NDI discovery and reliable RTMP streaming. The included DC 12 V 2 A adapter must be connected before configuring the unit.

Questions about this item

How much heat and power does the VMI-HN001-NDI draw when streaming 1080p all day?

The encoder ships with a DC12V/2A adapter and uses the Ambarella S6LM SoC for H.264 and H.265 encoding, a combination designed for low heat during continuous operation.

What cables and network gear must I already own to get the encoder running?

You need an HDMI source cable, a Cat5e or better Ethernet cable for the NDI and RTMP/RTSP streams, and optionally a 3.5 mm audio lead if you prefer external audio over HDMI audio.

Will the 1080p NDI output work alongside my older 720p capture cards and switchers?

Yes, the unit outputs 1920 x 1080 NDI streams and also provides an HDMI loop-out, so legacy 720p gear can tap the loop while the IP feed goes to modern software.
