Product Overview
Magewell Pro Capture Mini HDMI with Small Heat Sink is a compact one-channel Mini PCIe capture card designed for embedded and space-conscious professional video systems. It captures HDMI 1.4a video with embedded audio through an included SHD-to-HDMI breakout, while onboard 10-bit processing provides scaling, deinterlacing, color conversion, frame-rate conversion, and flexible multi-stream capture for recording, streaming, visualization, and custom integration.

Compact Mini PCIe Form Factor
The 30 × 51 mm Mini PCIe card is designed for compact workstations, embedded systems, appliances, and custom video hardware where a full-size PCIe capture card is not practical. The Small Heat Sink configuration helps provide thermal management while keeping the overall installation compact.
HDMI 1.4a Video Capture
The card supports HDMI 1.4a and compatible DVI 1.0 signals with input resolutions up to 2048 × 2160. HDMI connectivity is provided through the included JST SHD 20-pin to HDMI Type-A breakout cable for integration with standard sources.
Embedded HDMI Audio Capture
Embedded digital audio is captured alongside the HDMI video signal. Magewell SDK support provides access to compatible IEC60958 and IEC61937 audio with up to eight channels for recording, streaming, production, and custom applications.
Full 10-Bit Hardware Video Processing
Onboard processing supports full 10-bit video handling with hardware cropping, scaling, deinterlacing, aspect-ratio conversion, color-space conversion, frame-rate conversion, color adjustment, and OSD composition.
Ultra-Low-Latency Capture
Ultra-low-latency operation is specified at 64 video lines, helping reduce delay between the incoming HDMI source and host application. This is useful for monitoring, visualization, interactive processing, and other latency-sensitive systems.
Multiple Independent Capture Streams
Multiple capture streams can be generated from the single HDMI input with independent cropping, resolution, frame rate, aspect ratio, deinterlacing, color format, and color-adjustment settings for different applications.

JST SHD Input and Mini PCIe Gen2 x1
A JST SHD 20-pin connector carries the HDMI input signal to the card, while the supplied breakout converts the connection to a standard HDMI Type-A interface for cameras, computers, switchers, and other compatible sources.
The host connection uses Mini PCIe Gen2 x1, allowing the capture engine to be integrated directly into compact embedded systems and purpose-built video hardware.

What makes Pro Capture Mini HDMI different from a standard PCIe capture card?
It uses a compact 30 × 51 mm Mini PCIe form factor instead of a full-size PCIe expansion card, making it suited to embedded computers, compact appliances, and custom professional video systems.
How does HDMI connect to the card?
The board uses a JST SHD 20-pin input connector. An SHD-to-HDMI Type-A breakout is included so standard HDMI source devices can be connected to the card.
Does the card capture embedded HDMI audio?
Yes. Compatible embedded HDMI audio can be captured alongside video, with Magewell SDK access to supported audio formats and up to eight channels.
Is Pro Capture Mini HDMI a 4K UHD capture card?
No. The documented maximum input and capture image resolution is 2048 × 2160, so the card should not be represented as a 3840 × 2160 UHD capture device.
Can one HDMI input create multiple capture streams?
Yes. Multiple streams can be generated from the single input with independent resolution, frame rate, cropping, aspect ratio, deinterlacing, color format, and color-adjustment settings.
Which operating systems are supported?
Magewell supports Windows, Linux, and macOS through platform-native capture APIs and compatible third-party applications.
What is included with this Small Heat Sink version?
The package includes one Pro Capture Mini HDMI card and one SHD-to-HDMI Type-A breakout cable.
