Delivering a consistent, high-quality live stream requires more than a software encoder running on a shared workstation. Magewell dedicated hardware encoders provide the processing headroom, protocol flexibility and operational simplicity that professional streaming operations demand — from houses of worship to major sporting venues.
The Ultra Stream range offers the simplest path to professional live streaming — physical one-button operation combined with a dedicated smartphone app means non-technical operators can manage streams without IT intervention. For organisations requiring more advanced control, the Ultra Encode range supports simultaneous streaming to six destinations across RTMP, RTMPS, SRT, NDI HX3, HLS and more — all from a single hardware device. USB Capture devices provide an alternative approach for productions already using a dedicated streaming workstation, delivering clean HDMI or SDI signals directly into OBS, vMix, Wirecast or any UVC-compatible application. The Director Mini and Director One add professional switching, graphics and multi-source mixing to live streaming workflows, enabling polished productions without a full broadcast infrastructure.
