here is some Q's; 1) what about screen share distance. This product to screen max distance? 2)What is the maximum temperature level that the product can withstand? 3)What is the maximum number of hours the product can work in a day?
My experience with other wireless systems is that it usually works fine in the studio, but once you take it to a location and even try running more than one wireless set at the samw time, things tend to go down the drain pretty quickly. I would really like to see at least two RGBlink units plugged into a Yolobox, somewhere on a street - it would be great to get at least 20-30 meter range (imagine combining it with transmitters plugged into a full size HDMI ports like GH5,6,G9 or A7Siii or A7iv) - would be great for livestreaming from various locations without the need of bulky transmitters/receivers with even bigger NP-F bricks.
On a side note, what is the best live streaming OBS app on iPhone allowing editing a scene containing video feeds from all three cameras of iPhone at the same time? Like a vlogger showing both himself and what he sees in front of the phone in a customised picture in picture style?
No range, obstacle, network congestion, interference testing, nor whether it plays nice with more than one transmitter in the locality. Also no mention of colour formats, HDR, maximum (or compatible) framerates, etc. Your comment about the review being "complete and comprehensive" is unhelpful misinformation.
If you like side-by-side comparisons to show latency, running (additional) timing tracks down the left and right of the frame will let you "see" the latency at the seam between the two frames without having to capture a still (and make it more obvious when you do take a still).
@@tpvgg If you have someone on stage at a large event, they are often projected onto a larger video screen/board so everyone in the room can see them. That's IMAG.
hard to find here in Europe. also found it on a Dutch website for 275 € and on a German for 417 € .. quite a margin. at 275 € that seems like a fair price. in my case I am looking to transfer video from an iPhone and a GoPro. so with one set I can send both signals (1x RX for the iPhone via AirPlay + 1x RX+TX for the GoPro).
Aaron, that you, this was really the best idea that I heard all day. It may even solve a minor tech problem that I have with my Livestream setup. If it works, I will drop you a line and tell you about it. Many thanks.
Latency and stability are the 2 major concerns hence if have usb 3.2 support that will solve the puzzle. Although window have certain feature but one can not compare it with 4k 8k tv monitor.
Any thoughts on USB Microscopes? I'd like to try use an HDMI transmitter/receiver to it! For electronic rework/soldering, you only need 10x-40x magnification... are there any USB based microscopes, true 4k/optical-zoom that you'd recommend? For example, one that can output video 1) wirelessly to a android/monitor receiver (Miracast/Wireless-HDMI) 2) Wired USB to latptop/tablet device 3) Wired HDMI Dual-lens for seeing depth.. and a large Field-of-View would also be nice. Unfortunately, the ones I've seen are very expensive, presumably because they have way too much zoom (130x-180x lens), or come with their own 10" display, or gimic features like remote-control, etc.
Thank you for your awesome work and the information you provide. Sadly, on this episode, I wanted to see what this HDMI transmitter would do across a room. Most of your examples where short distances (3-5 ft) and going wireless doesn't make sense to me at such short distances. Is there any chance that you can review this item if the scenario was a conference with 200 people sitting in a large room with (clogging the radio waves) and a camera way over there. Based on your comments in this video, I might use it on a Confidence Monitor rather than video headed out my stream.
It does make sense since if you want e.g. to use a TV as a monitor while still using the notebook you have otherwise to connect it using a cable which is (a) a tripping hazard (b) looks ugly (c) is thick so makes moving the notebook uncomfortable
I'm curious what the range is and how it performs when there's a room full of people with phones between the transmitter and the receiver. At my day job we use a wireless remote so a presenter can advance slides loaded on the venue's computer. If the receiver dongle is connected directly to the computer, it works fine until there is a crowd of people with phones. Our solution is to use a USB over CAT5 extender to put the receiver dongle on stage near the presenter. I wonder if this wireless HDMI device would have a similar challenge.
The impact of mobile phones on our devices is minimal. ASK transmission has independent frequency bands, and we also used ASK at ISE exhibitions to maintain stable operation even in such a crowded environment
A possible solution to the video delay that you mentioned when having to worry about syncing audio, if the device transmits audio, and the situation allows it you could probably easily fix the issue by feeding audio into the camera source.
Yes definitely, if you only have one camera then the easiest solution is to run the audio into the camera. But if you're matching multiple cameras then you'll have sync issues.
Great video, as always, Aaron. I'm wondering if this would be a good product for producing Teams Live Events? I currently use a 35-foot HDMI cable from a single camera to an ATEM mini Extreme, then into OBS and out to Teams. Would the audio latency be noticeable in this case? Could it be adjusted using the ATEM control software? Open to suggestions.

that's the problem with budget option; I can stay on my Wifi while in the same time connect wireless to my Screenbeam dongle and here you are forced to disconnect with your network just to be able to connect with a dongle
Great channel, great video. I'm looking to use this with my drone controller to allow broadcasting to a remote monitor. The current controller can wireless screencast, but has an issue(limited processing power) and cannot screenrecord(which I use for my channel content) and screencast(for sharing my feed with the customer) at the same time. So, I'm looking at HDMI wireless methods to work around the issue.
i say it now... later come hdmi wireless monitor where you can see wireless monitors and you select what you want crach if there something to crack. so you see neighbour wireless hdmi. well good old LAN and HDMI cable is good now?
have the same question, even if you do not have an exact numer, waht is your feeling/experience, is it more 5, 10 ,50 or 100m? will it work from one room into another? or is distance very limited?
After watching the video, I must say I love the level of detail you provide in testing the transmitter and receiver. However I want to hear some opinions anyway, do you believe this would work to cast the HDMI signal (1080p HD 60hz) from a computer to a celling mounted projector? We are looking to set up a small home cinema and are looking at our options for getting the HDMI from the PC (in the same room) to the projector which will be mounted in the center of the room (probably 10 meters between PC and projector as a rough estimate). Based on your tests, would you think it would handle my needs, if all we plan to do is watch movies and play some casual games?
Thanks! It should work fine for movies as long as your projector feeds the speakers. There's a slight delay, so if your speakers are being fed from the video source instead of the projector, the picture will be slightly out of sync. The delay is also probably too much for gameplay.
@@aaronpk Thank you for the info :) I was planning to connect a set of speakers using the built in Aux port on the projector I have, so that shouldn't be an issue. We mainly plan to use it for movies, so even though the delay might be too much for gameplay, I may give them a try none the less, as the whole "gaming" part can still be done in our respective offices, the media PC isn't really built for gaming anyway. again thank you for getting back to me with answering my question :)
I am looking for an affortable setup where I have two or more transmitters and a single reciever so that I can live stream from two or more cameras. Is any suggestions?
I don't have anywhere to do that right now. My studio is just one room and I live above it in a loft style apartment, so I can only get 20ft away from it at most right now.
Hi, I wanted to ask you for advice, I purchased the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 which has the webcam function at 1080p 30fps, in OBS I can see it without problems, I have vMix HD and if I try to insert an input from the Pocket 3 I only hear the audio and I can't view the video. What could it depend on? I have the little program Xplit Vcam and if I go to get the Pocket 3 from there, even if it is transformed into 1280 x 720 then it shows in vMix. Is it a question of resolution?
I would love to know if the device wifi still continues If you add your own wifi. Are you able to configure the device wifi 5GHz channels or is it 2.4 GHz channels? Or both?
Why not just stream over LAN/WAN? Having decent wifi will easily yield a low latency and high resolution video output. I am even able to do high refresh rate with very little artifacting, if any. You obviously would need to have a client machine for each monitor, though you can get a capable one on third party markets for cheaper than these adapters cost. I bought an HP ProDesk for $100 and threw an AX210 in it so I could take advantage of Wifi 6e.
Quick question, did you test the range of the receiver. Looking for use in a church auditorium. Wonder if the latency is reliable over a long distance. Thank you
That smallrig product you are using. I was thinking about using it to hold this on the back of my tv. I went to their website, but could not figure out what you are using. Thanks
I want to hook this up to an endoscope in a bird nesting box and be able to wirelessly send pics and vids from the endoscpe to my phone or PC. Is this doable with this unit?
Cool! As long as it has HDMI out you can use the transmitter. The receiver has HDMI out so you'd plug that in to a monitor directly, not a phone or computer
What country are you in? The link is correct on the Amazon US site: www.amazon.com/RGBlink-Transmitter-4k-Receivers-Broadcasts/dp/B0CLC96SWM?tag=apky2b-20
Could this be used to support a mobile camera, say at a basketball game, livestream for a high school? HDMI Mini out to HDMI, female/female adapter to the stick, and then put the receiver on your ATEM - now you have a wireless HDMI camera on the sidelines?
Sure, that seems reasonable! Keep in mind the latency of the link, but it should be low enough for that kind of angle that it's fine. I don't have a good way to test the range right now which is another concern, but at least you'd have line of sight in that setup so that helps.
This is basically a synthetic test, not real world test. Given that these devices are most likely be used to project a computer's screen to a projector mounted on a ceiling where it's not practical to run an HDMI cable to the projector, the signal has to move through the air space that is polluted with neighboring radio signals. Imagine a room full of people in a meeting with their cell phones and laptops on using the wifi. If the frequency used by these wireless HDMI adapters is higher than 5GHz such as 64GHz, then I can see there is no interference.
I would like to do some more tests with this for sure, but I can say that I live in a pretty dense urban environment and my computer where I filmed this can see over 30 SSIDs from nearby wifi hotspots.
True, but these 30 SSIDs are not concentrated within one room. I support AV in a corporate environment where a room can have up to 100 people all have their laptops and presumably cell phones too. However, all of them use either 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz. If these wireless HDMI adapters use none of those bands, then I can see it avoiding the interference. That's why I asked what frequency do these adapters use.@@aaronpk
You can find their FCC test reports on their website: www.rgblink.com/productsinfo.aspx?id=258 It shows they use a number of 5ghz bands. It will be challenging to find a device that uses a different frequency because of the limited availability of unlicensed bands. There is a relatively new opening in 6ghz for wifi and other things, so it's only a matter of time before that gets saturated with consumer devices as well. Ultimately if you want a 100% reliable solution in a noisy RF environment, you will need to run wires.
@rgblink, how does it perform across walls? E.g. with a transmitter in an office room, and receiver in a living room. 4-7 meters in between with one or two walls.
Not really, the sub-$100 ones I've tried are nowhere near as good. If you only need the screen sharing feature then there are some $40 options that are ok, search for "Miracast" devices.
Yes,You can use the 5V/1A power adapter to power the ASK nano 4K TX. You can also use a USB-A to USB-C cable to connect the TX's USB-C connector to your laptop's USB port to power the TX.
you could just use two sets. If you plug two of these into your computer's two HDMI ports, it will see them as two separate monitors. At that point you probably want to go with something that has HDMI passthrough so you can see a local copy of your monitor too, but that bumps you into a much different price point.
I have a location with 2 TVs on a wall about 3 feet apart. They want to use both of these as separate monitors, I need a single PC to use these two TV's independently like normal dual monitors. Can I order two kits and use them individually?
@@lsmith77 so, interesting thing I noticed about this is that even when I had a 4K camera plugged in, one receiver was outputting 1080 to my ATEM. I suspect it outputs at the resolution negotiated during the HDMI link. So if you connect it to a 4K monitor it'll output 4K, or if you connect it to the YoloBox it will output 1080.
I wanted to purchase the adapter and used the link. It only shows 1 transmitter and 1 receiver in your video you say there are two receivers. Does the $169 included two receivers. Thanks
1080P30 testing video with 2Frames of latency. Meaning the actual latency is close to 70ms. This is OK for watching TV or film or anything. This is definitely not acceptable for gaming.
Could I use this for a Nintendo Switch? Let's say I can connect the dock to my bedside table, then connect the HDMI transmitter to the dock and finally connect the receiver behind the TV which would be on the wall in front of where the bedside table is (about 2 meters in front). Would it work? I'm just doing it because the TV is on a rack on the wall and there is nowhere where I can put the dock nearby.
Yeah the dual receiver version is out of stock at the moment. I'm not sure why it completely disappeared from the listing instead of just showing out of stock.
I would get this if I knew it could transmit from DJI googlesV2 to a phone or computer. Anyone make it work for viewing FPV live with older system? Hotspot on phone works too
Sorry… The DJI Goggles 2.0 and V2 (silly naming convention 🤔) do NOT have HDMI output capabilities. The original (very large and heavy / looks like a box with battery mounted on the head strap) DJI Goggles and Goggles RE (“Racing Edition”) did provide for HDMI in/out, but not the 2 / V2 / Integra goggles. I’m not sure what you’re trying to accomplish, but I was looking to display my Mavic-3 video stream in goggles. I ended up buying the DJI RC Pro controller. It has HDMI output via a “mini HDMI” connector. I also bought the Orqa Goggles which have HDMI input and output ports. I feed the output of the RC Pro controller into a 4 port HDMI distribution splitter and plug the goggles into one of the outputs. The other outputs are used for a second pair of HD-Zero goggles and external field monitor. I feed the fourth output into a FeelWorld WS1000 HDMI transmitter. The FeelWorld receiver is attached to a large field monitor which is used a few hundred feet away. It is a solid unit for the cost. Good luck!
Hey Arron I had a question on the dji pocket 3 if that’s cool. I wanted to use it as a wireless cam , but wanted to connect it to the yolo ultra . Would I be able to get a usb c to hdmi cable and then get a hdmi transmitter and receiver and connect one end to the dji and one to yolo creating a wireless signal for camera switching ? Instead of buying a 200ft cable
That would technically work, but is there a particular reason you want to use the Pocket 3? In webcam mode you can't connect it to the app, so you can't even control it remotely at that point. Oh and a regular USB-C to HDMI cable won't work either, you would need to use one of the webcam-to-HDMI converters like the OBSBOT converter I did a video about earlier. So at that point you're probably better off with the OBSBOT Tail Air which has HDMI out and remote control.
@@aaronpk yes the reason I want to do this is because I am launching anew camping channel , and have 5 cameras , was looking at the yolo ultra for the switching feature and didn’t want to have 50-100ft hdmi cables around campsites , so I wanted to go as wireless as I can . Already got the tail air , have a Panasonic cam that I want to use a hdmi transmitter on as well to the yolo box , have two GoPros and the Osmo 3 . I figure the switching would def save me a lot of time post editing and stitching everything together
PK3 could connect directly to RGBlink mini-edge by type C interface, and other camera can do remotely with ASK nano TX and RX. And I agree with Aaron to use RGBlink TAO 1tiny with PK3 and from TAO 1tiny HDMI 2.0 output to ASK nano TX input, you get 4K video quality to RGBlink mini-edge which is installed with a ASK nano RX.
