The IP gui is fairly intuitive and there's even a live preview with controls. Even came with a shoe mount. I mainly wanted some hardware that could serve as backup records, and this does just that. Only thing I don't like is you must split your recording either by time (45min max) or file size (4GB max), and it may introduce some freeze frame in the last few seconds if you're trying to string them back together. Otherwise, perfect for a backup and a general webcast/video multi tool! ## Features - Compact but Powerful: ZowieBox, smaller than phones, with a tally light and LCD screen showing streaming status, can stream console gameplays at 4K capture with zero-lag passthrough. The IP stream can be decoded into a 4K HDMI signal. - Standalone Game streaming: Just plug and play, ZowieBox can stream live gaming PC-free, not affecting the game experience at all! - NDI|HX3 Converter: It can encode a HDMI signal to NDI|HX3/HX2/HX. The certified NDI technology enables ZowieBox to stream gameplay from home to global e-sports championship via OBS/vMix in real time at very low delay but high definition. ZowieBox cannot be used as an encoder and decoder at the same time. It can only switch between the two working modes, not use both modes at the same time. Note: It does not support encoding/decoding full NDI signals - UVC to HDMI: Up to 4K@30fps & 1080p@60fps resolution and decoding solution, ZowieBox allows you to unfold more possibilities of the webcam devices. USB capture card function is not currently supported. - All-around Configuration: It can be adjusted through web UI by PC/phone/pad to control PTZ cameras connected, Tally light, video/audio, OSD, work mode, stream, network and system. Users can see the preview video and overall dashboard on the web UI. - HDMI Extender: Using two ZowieBoxes, point-to-point transmission can be achieved. One acts as an HDMI encoder/transmitter and the other acts as an HDMI decoder/receiver. The video signal is transmitted through a network such as a LAN. It can be used as either an encoder or a decoder, but the two modes cannot run at the same time - HDMI 4K Signal Input: When accepting a 4Kp60 HDMI signal, it can loop out 4Kp60, and stream at 1080p60. When accepting a 4Kp30 HDMI signal, it can loop out 4Kp30, and stream at 4Kp30. - Convenient Use at Anywhere: ZowieBox supports PoE(100 meters) or being powered by USB-C chargers such as power banks and DC to USB-C adapters. It can also power external equipments like PTZ cameras by DC out and be mounted on SLR or standard tripod. - NDI Substream: The NDI substream converted by ZowieBox can better cooperate with the use of NDI directing systems like Tricaster etc. Also, NDI Discover works well with ZowieBox! - OBS Dock: Seamlessly integrate the Web UI of ZowieBox into OBS, making it effortless to configure ZowieBox. Switch seamlessly between PC and mobile interfaces for added convenience. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0CGRZ9DQ2 | | Audio Output Mode | HDMI | | Best Sellers Rank | #62 in Video Converters | | Brand | zowietek | | Brand Name | zowietek | | Compatible Devices | Gaming Console | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 273 Reviews | | Included Components | ZowieBox, Power Supply only for U.S, Cold Shoe, Quick Start Guide | | Interface | HDMI | | Interface Type | HDMI | | Item Dimensions L x W | 4.84"L x 2.68"W | | Item Weight | 5.9 Ounces | | Manufacturer | Zowietek | | Material Type | Aluminum | | Model | 30621-102 | | Mounting Type | Tripod Mount | | Number of Channels | 3 | | Number of Pins | 38 | | Part Number | 30621-102 | | Smart Home Compatibility | Not Smart Home Compatible | | UPC | 617395411306 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Upper Temperature Rating | 45 Degrees Celsius | | Warranty Description | 1 Year Hardaware Manufacture Warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** zowietek - **Interface Type:** HDMI - **Mounting Type:** Tripod Mount - **Number of Pins:** 38 - **Upper Temperature Rating:** 45 Degrees Celsius ## Images ![ZowieBox, 4K HDMI NDI Video Encoder/Decoder, HDMI NDI | Native NDI HX3, UVC to HDMI, Pass-Through Video Capture, SRT/RTMP(S)/RTSP, Live Streaming - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/516bycNxuZL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Do I need PC/OBS/vMix or other softwares to broadcast XBox and PS games via ZowieBox?** A: Three streaming ways **Q: If I want to use OBS, how to get ZowieBox working in the OBS?** A: First, open the NDI of ZowieBox.

The ZowieBox does what the Magewell's have been doing with respect to converting HDMI to NDI (and vice versa AMAZINGLY) but they don't support all formats of NDI. This is a brilliant one-trick-pony. It supports HX1, HX2 and HX3 but not the uncompressed SHQ. This is a huge problem when using the Zowiebox in a Tricaster environment (native NDI anyone???) as the multiviews are sent out uncompressed. It's like releasing a guitar that only has 3 strings and expecting folks to be happy with the luthier. Now, I've purchased and deployed about a dozen of these since they came out using a few hacks, but have been forced to *upgrade* to Magewells due to this major shortfall. I have reached out to support to 2 months with no response. Excited if they can Fix this beautiful product. ## Frequently Bought Together - 4K HDMI Video Encoder/Decoder, ZowieBox, Native NDI HX3 (Certified) Converter/Player, UVC to HDMI, Pass-Through Video Capture, SRT/RTMP(S)/RTSP, Live Streaming to YouTube - 3G SDI Native NDI|HX3 Video Streaming Encoder Decoder, ZowieBox, UVC to SDI Converter, SDI Video Capture Extender with Loopout, SRT/RTMP(S)/RTSP to NDI, Standalone H.265/H.264 Live Stream with PoE - zowietek USB 3.0 A to A Male Cable 4.92Ft, USB to USB, Male to Male, Gold-Plated Connector for Hard Drive Enclosures, DVD Player, Laptop Cooler (4.92Ft/1.5M) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/583729752-zowiebox-4k-hdmi-ndi-video-encoder-decoder-hdmi-ndi-native](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/583729752-zowiebox-4k-hdmi-ndi-video-encoder-decoder-hdmi-ndi-native) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-07-28*
