The CYP SY-XTREAM-C is an HDMI to USB-C video capture recorder with HDMI bypass, supporting resolutions up to 4K UHD+ (18Gbps) with HDR via the bypass pathway, while simultaneously streaming audio and video at up to 4K@30Hz to a USB-connected PC for capture or re-broadcast. 4K sources with framerates higher than 30Hz are automatically converted to 4K@30Hz for USB capture.
In addition to the embedded HDMI audio, a second audio stream can be captured from the line input, mic input, or both mixed together via the integrated audio mixer. A special video timing stabilisation feature helps ensure the USB capture stream does not lock up or drop, even if the HDMI input source is intermittent or disconnected. USB capture uses the UAC (USB Audio Class) and UVC (USB Video Class) standards, providing compatibility with most common capture and streaming software including OBS, available for Windows 10 or later, macOS, and Linux. Advanced software-controllable features beyond simple video capture require the use of the USB Video Capture Control software, which is only available for Windows 10 or later. The unit is powered directly via the USB-C connection, requiring no external power supply.
