Such a great product! Worth the price!
Such a great product! Definitely worth the price! The video quality is excellent and a great cheaper alternative to the blackmagic webpresenter if you only need one camera or video feed going in to the computer (like if you have a single camera or video mixer). I tried out some of the cheaper options that claim to do the same thing and the video quality suffers. Honestly this is a good middle of the road price and delivers excellent quality! Thank you U-TAP for such a great product! If you need more functionality and options, I recommend the Blackmagic webpresenter with the front panel added, but that is like double the price for all those extra options, so if you just need something simple, this is it!
I also love that it doesn't require external power - it is powered right out of the usb! So if your camera and laptop are both battery powered, you could potentially run a whole streaming set-up without external power! Either way, it is one last plug and one last device you have to worry about getting power too! Great product!

Only issue is that the LED lights are on side and not the top.
This AJA U-TAP HDMI Simple USB 3.0 Powered HDMI Capture device is great but not perfect. The only thing I do not like about it is that that LED lights to indicate if the USB is on or that the camera is on are on the opposite sides and not the top. Due to the location, I ended up mounting this under the desk but it would not have mattered where it sites you cannot see the LED lights indication what is on. If they would move the LED to the top so you could see them. This device would be perfect if that was the case, but it's not. It's still a great item and I would highly recommend it.

Terrific for Skype and FB
Picture quality is great for indoor and outdoor events for FB live and other stuff. WARNING: Not useful exclusively for YouTube live without a software program. FB live is similar to a conference, where YouTube is considered a livestream, so the vids are very choppy.

works great
Using this to convert camera images for use in my laptop with OBS for streaming to the internet. Make sure your internet upload speeds are good or images with be uneven and do lots of spooling at the website.

It works!
A bit pricey, methinks, but otherwise a hum-dinger. Seriously, it's good to find a gadget that solves a problem without a lot of head scratching and endless staring at YouTube videos.

Works perfect
It's small and is very easy to setup. As a small fellowship just getting started to broadcast live on Facebook, this was an excellent buy!

Excellent Quality
This is the device to have if your wanting to capture the video from your camcorder, or DSLR to your computer. You can also use more than one of these for multiple video sources. I'm using this at 1080p 60fps with excellent results. Small, lightweight and fits in your pocket.
Question & Answer
Question :
Can i run an external mic into my dslr, and then connect hdmi from my camera to u-tap unit, then both audio & video go from u-tap to usb/computer?
Answer :
Yes. I use a shure lavalier mic into external mic jack on my camera. Then, both audio and video are transmitted by hdmi cable through u-tap into my computer. Only thing you have to do on your computer interface is select u-tap as video source and again as audio source. Works like a breeze.
Question :
Does the sound remain in sync even with compressed audio coming in via hdmi?
Answer :
The HDMI embedded audio/video are 99.9% sync accurate. AJA are known for top quality.
Question :
is trained for 3 or 4 hours of live broadcast. if it is not heated
Answer :
i think it will be a good way
Question :
If I have two cameras do I need tow of these Captures?
Answer :
You need to have a video switcher of some type to switch multiple cameras. Blackmagic's ATEM line is affordable. The U-Tap just sends the information and you cannot use 2 U-TAP's on the same system.
Question :
How does this compare to the elgato hd60 s+ ?
Answer :
The AJA is a conversion device for people who have two video OUT ports and are trying to stream or display. The elgato hd60, to my understanding is a recording device.
Do it also do the same as the AJA?
Question :
Will this work plugged into a laptop with usb2
Answer :
Yes, but can only do 720p with USB 2.0
Question :
I have a desktop pc. i'd like to be able to use my 27" imac (2017) as a monitor for this pc (limited desk space). would this work? what resolutions?
Answer :
hi i'm sorry but i d'nt have a desktop pc with usb3 my AJA U-TAP HDMI is connect with a server .my video format is 1080 x1920 kind regards
Question :
can I use 2 of these for 2 camera inputs into my computers mixing software or will I run into usb bandwidth issues?
Answer :
Depends entirely on your computer.
Question :
does this work with Go-to-Webinar?
Answer :
https://www.aja.com/products/u-tap-hdmi
AJA does not specifically list GoToWebinar as a compatible software, but does list GoToMeeting from same company. Perhaps contact GoToWebinar support and ask them as I cannot find supported hardware listed on their site.
Question :
Does it come with a usb 3.o cable?
Answer :
Yes!! It comes with the cable.
