What is Streaming Encoders / Decoders
BZBGEAR offers a versatile lineup of streaming encoders, decoders, and all-in-one encoder/decoder units designed for high-performance video transmission in applications like live broadcasting, video conferencing, digital signage, and remote monitoring. Encoders convert HDMI or SDI video into digital streams for platforms like YouTube or integration into conferencing systems, while decoders receive IP streams and output them as HDMI or SDI for local display.
The hybrid encoder/decoder models provide dual functionality - streaming and receiving - making them ideal for flexible, cost-effective workflows in professional AV environments.
Choosing the Right
Streaming Encoder/Decoder
When selecting a streaming encoder, decoder, or combo unit, it's important to match the device to your specific workflow - whether that's live broadcasting, video distribution, or remote monitoring. Here's a quick guide to help you decide:
Streaming Encoder
Encoders convert HDMI or SDI video signals into IP streams for platforms like YouTube, Facebook Live, or Zoom.
Key Features to Look For:
- Input Types: HDMI, SDI, or both
- Streaming Protocols: RTMP, SRT, RTSP, HLS
- Resolution Support: 1080p, 4K, high frame rate
- Network Options: Ethernet, Wi-Fi, USB recording

Streaming Decoder
Decoders receive IP video streams and output HDMI or SDI for display on local monitors or video walls.
What Matters:
- Protocol Support: Ensure compatibility with your encoder (e.g., SRT, RTSP)
- Low Latency: Essential for real-time applications
- Output Options: Match your display interfaces
- Scalability: Consider multicast or multi-screen support

Encoder/Decoder Combo
All-in-one units that can both send and receive video streams - ideal for point-to-point links and flexible AV systems.
Things to Consider:
- Simultaneous Encode/Decode: Useful for live two-way communication
- Control Options: Web GUI, API, or third-party system integration
- Reliability: Look for robust build quality and failover features
