Description
Product Overview
The Magewell Pro Capture Dual HDMI 4K Plus LT is a two-channel 4K PCIe capture card designed for simultaneous professional HDMI video ingest. It provides two HDMI 2.0 inputs with embedded audio plus two HDMI loop-through connections, with input and capture resolutions up to 4096×2160. PCIe Gen2 x8 connectivity, HDR10 support, 10-bit hardware processing, and independent multi-stream capture make it well suited to live production, streaming, recording, broadcast, and AV integration.
Dual-Channel 4K HDMI Capture
Two independent HDMI inputs allow two video sources to be captured through one PCIe card. Each input supports resolutions up to 4096×2160 pixels. This reduces the number of capture cards required for multi-camera, presentation, and dual-source production systems.
Dual HDMI 2.0 Loop-Through
Two dedicated HDMI loop-through connections pass the incoming sources onward to displays, monitors, switchers, or other downstream equipment. Both loop-through ports support HDMI 2.0 and DVI-D 1.0 signaling. This enables local monitoring while both sources are captured.
HDR10 and 10-Bit Video Processing
HDR10 is supported on compatible HDMI sources together with 8-bit, 10-bit, and 12-bit input color depths. Full 10-bit hardware processing handles scaling, cropping, deinterlacing, color conversion, aspect-ratio conversion, and frame-rate conversion.
PCIe Gen2 x8 High-Bandwidth Interface
The card connects to the host workstation through PCIe Gen2 x8. Magewell specifies approximately 1600 MB/s DMA bandwidth per channel on PCIe 2.x systems. This provides the bandwidth required for demanding dual-channel high-resolution capture workflows.
Ultra-Low-Latency Video Capture
Magewell specifies an ultra-low-latency mode of 64 video lines. Partial-notification functionality is also available through the Capture SDK. This supports responsive monitoring, live production, and custom interactive video-processing applications.
Multiple Independent Capture Streams
Unlimited capture streams can be generated for either input channel. Individual streams can use independent resolution, frame rate, cropping, aspect ratio, deinterlacing, color format, and color-adjustment settings. Each HDMI source can therefore serve multiple software workflows.
Capture Inputs
2 × HDMI · HDMI 2.0 · DVI-D 1.0
Loop-Through Outputs
2 × HDMI · HDMI 2.0 · DVI-D 1.0
Capture Channels
2 Independent Channels

OBS vMix and Wirecast Compatibility
Magewell lists OBS, vMix, Wirecast, XSplit, VidBlaster, VLC, and VirtualDub among supported applications. Other compatible DirectShow, V4L2, and AVCaptureSession software can also access the card. This supports streaming, recording, monitoring, and live production workflows.
Windows Linux and macOS Support
Windows support includes DirectShow, DirectKS, Wave API, DirectSound, and WASAPI. Linux applications can use V4L2 and ALSA. macOS applications can access video and audio through AVCaptureSession and AudioUnit.
Capture Express and Magewell SDK
Magewell includes Capture Express with the Pro Capture platform. The Magewell Capture SDK provides additional control over timing, capture formats, synchronization, processing, and low-latency functions. Universal drivers and updatable firmware support professional integration.
