Sanwa Direct's New USB-C Video Capture Device

Sanwa Supply, a company headquartered in Okayama, Japan, recently introduced a powerful new video capture device, the 400-MEDI054, available through its direct sales site, Sanwa Direct. This innovative device allows users to record video in Full HD at 60 frames per second via USB-C input, all while charging the device with a PD100W power supply, eliminating the need for a computer entirely.

Key Features and Advantages

One of the standout features of the 400-MEDI054 is its straightforward operation. Users can easily record video by simply pressing a button; no complex setup is required. It connects directly to devices that support USB-C video output in DP Alt Mode. Additionally, it alleviates typical smartphone recording challenges like overheating and storage issues by managing the recording process on the device itself and saving the data directly to a microSD card.

No more worrying about storage space, as this device can handle microSD cards up to 1TB, ensuring ample capacity for long recordings. Whether for gaming, training, or lectures, this device provides peace of mind that your recording will not be interrupted due to storage limitations.

Power and Performance

The 400-MEDI054 supports USB Power Delivery (PD) for charging, with a capacity of up to 100W. This means users can continue to charge their smartphones or tablets while recording, eliminating concerns about running out of battery mid-session. The inclusion of a USB-C port dedicated to power input ensures that users can enjoy lengthy recording sessions without interruptions due to low battery.

Versatility in Connectivity

This capture device is also equipped with HDMI input and output options, making it versatile enough for devices that may not have USB-C video output. Users can connect HDMI-enabled sources, and through its HDMI output, they can display the recording on larger screens while capturing the video simultaneously. This feature opens up possibilities for diverse recording scenarios, from casual gameplay to professional presentations.

Additional Features

Moreover, the 400-MEDI054 comes with a 3.5mm audio jack, allowing users to connect a headset or microphone for audio input directly from the recording device. This not only enhances the recording experience but also resolves the issue where sound cannot be played from a smartphone during video output.

For convenience, recorded videos are formatted in MP4 (H.264/AVC), making it simple to manage and share the captured content. Users can easily review, edit, and share their recordings after the fact, suited for both personal and professional use.

Conclusion

In summary, the 400-MEDI054 by Sanwa Direct is an excellent solution for anyone looking to record high-quality video without the need for a computer. Its simplicity, alongside features that solve common recording challenges like battery drain and storage space, makes it a must-have device for gamers, educators, and content creators alike.
