Integrated 4K UHD Monitor
Equipped with a high-quality 17.3-inch 4K UHD monitor, the mobile studio provides a multiview display. This display allows producers and operators to monitor multiple video sources simultaneously, ensuring smooth production execution.

The 4K monitor has four times of resolution than a Full HD monitor, resulting in much sharper and more detailed images.

The increased pixel density of a 4K monitor means that individual pixels are smaller and less noticeable, resulting in sharper text, images, and graphics. The higher resolution of a 4K monitor improves productivity, as you can have multiple windows open side by side without sacrificing legibility or clarity.


5" Touchscreen Display
With the 5" touchscreen panel built-in, you will not need a laptop or app to assist with your live production.

With many built-in functions, including user memory with customized icon, transition animation set up, chroma key, luma key, DSK, PIP, wipe generator, still stores, and logo insertion; these can all be done on the 5" LCD touchscreen.


Intuitive One-Button-One-Function

They can all be saved in one user memory slot and with the assigned icon, you can easily identify the settings saved therein. Simply tap the slot to activate all saved features.


Picture-In-Picture Frames with Unique 3D Borders
Create 2 picture-in-picture frames that can be active at the same time. Picture-in-picture frames are fully adjustable in size and position and have various border options including unique 3D borders.


Varieties of 3D PIP Configurations
The two built-in PIP windows can be overlaid on one another. In addition to the default corner places, you can further change the window's size, position and display ratio. You can also crop the window to make it square.

By adding a shaded border, you will then be able to fully generate an advanced 3D PIP window with a self-defined border color.


WIPE Transition Effects
There is a total of 64 wipe transition effects designed for different TV programs. The WIPE transition is a very crucial element in program production. The SE-4000 provides 64 eye- catching WIPE effects with configurable border color and width. The border can be further softened to make the WIPE effect unique.


Still Image Thumbnails
Save up to 250 4K still images such as sequential program images, images of various scenarios, full size logos, school or faculty badges, etc.

You can also capture important moments of your program and save these images for post-edits. This library of images is a good tool for future video production.

The HS-4000 comes with a built-in web-ready recorder. Simply insert your SD card, and you'll have video files that can be immediately uploaded to the video network of your choice or to your website.


Professional Audio-to-Video Synchronization
There are times when video and audio become out of sync during video production or live video streaming. Most users would feel annoyed when such an issue arises. Videos are usually processed at 25 or 50 frames per second and the audio is delivered in milliseconds.

Due to different processing times and network latencies, you will thus receive out of sync video and audio. The HS-4000's professional built-in audio delayer is designed to ensure precise audio-to-video synchronization by delaying and calibrating the audio received.

Ultimately, the sound reproduced by stereo speakers should match the video played on the big screen, providing audience with a pleasant viewing experience.

Save camera and keyer settings in user memory presets. The HS-4000 offers up to 125 memory presets. Use icons to better identify settings saved therein.

You may sometimes need to switch between different chromakey, lumakey and linear key settings because different video shooting environments have different camera angles and amount of light so the keyer settings may vary.

You can save the camera's PTZ settings along with these keyer parameters in the user memory presets which can be accessed with one tap. Once loaded, the program view will be switched instantaneously to another camera image along with the keyer settings and the background image, mimicking video switching with multiple keyers.

Support SRT streaming protocol, no need to worry about unreliable network environment
Many broadcasters have experienced pixelated video during live streaming, often due to unstable network environments caused by bandwidth volatility.

Streaming RTMP over unreliable, low-bandwidth networks can cause issues. With dvCloud, you can now replace the RTMP protocol with SRT, which will fix most streaming issues you may have. SRT is better than RTMP because it handles problematic networks more efficiently.

It requires less bandwidth, and it solves data errors faster. As a result, your viewers will experience a better stream, with less buffering and pixelization.
