Description

The TASCAM VSR-265 Stand-Alone 4K UHD Video Encoder/Decoder for Live Streaming streams and records up to 3840 x 2160 over IP. It simultaneously records video, encodes, streams, and decodes multiple streams using the H.264 or H.265 codec. It supports encoding at up to 30 Mb/s using H.264/H.265 and can record to either SD cards, or attached USB drives. The TASCAM DISCOVERY app allows you to remotely manage multiple units via an easy-to-use web GUI. After setup, all settings are saved locally to the individual VS-R units, so they can operate without being controlled by a computer. The unit powers by PoE+, allowing you to place it anywhere you can run an appropriate Ethernet cable connected to a router that supports PoE+. If that is not possible, an AC power adapter is available. Mounting brackets are included, and an optional AK-RS1 shelf allows you rackmount two units side-by-side. Read more

FAQs about TASCAM VSR-265 Stand-Alone 4K UHD Video Encoder/Decoder for Live Streaming (HDMI)

What is the primary function of the TASCAM VS-R265?

The VS-R265 is a stand-alone, half-rack AV-over-IP video streamer, encoder, decoder, and recorder capable of handling up to 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) resolution video using both H.265 (HEVC) and H.264 compression codecs.

Do I need a connected computer to stream or record with the VS-R265?

No, it functions as a completely standalone hardware unit. Once initial network settings and stream keys are configured via a web browser using the TASCAM Discovery app, the unit operates independently without requiring an active computer.

Which video streaming protocols and platforms does it support?

It supports major streaming protocols including RTMP, RTMPS, RTSP, HLS, RTP, Unicast, and Multicast. This enables direct streaming to popular platforms like YouTube, Facebook Live, Twitch, Vimeo, Wowza, and custom CDNs.

Can the VS-R265 stream to multiple destinations simultaneously?

Yes, it can output up to 8 simultaneous streams (including up to 3 RTMP/RTMPS streams, RTSP, HLS, and RTP/UDP Unicast/Multicast feeds), allowing you to simulcast to multiple social media platforms or send a primary and backup stream concurrently.

What storage media options are supported for video recording?

It can simultaneously record streams directly to connected USB 3.0 storage drives, SD/SDHC/SDXC memory cards, or its built-in internal storage. Recorded video files can also be configured to automatically upload to an FTP server.

How are external audio sources connected to the encoder?

In addition to accepting embedded audio via its HDMI input, the VS-R265 features balanced Euroblock (Phoenix) connectors and unbalanced 3.5 mm (1/8") stereo mini jacks for both audio input and output.

How is the VS-R265 powered?

It can be powered via Power over Ethernet (PoE+ Class 4) using an IEEE 802.3at network connection, or powered with an optional external 12V DC power supply (TASCAM PS-P1220E).
