Flexible Pearl integrations

Works with your AV infrastructure

Pearl play nicely with everyone, including AV control platforms (Crestron, Q-SYS, and Extron), cameras, displays, projectors, microphones, and audio mixers/DSPs to deliver the most flexible capture experience in the industry.

Beyond lecture capture

Epiphan allows universities to solve the challenges of the ever growing demand for video on campus, including event production, new media content creation, and self-serve studios.

Why use Pearl with Panopto

Purpose-built for recording and streaming, Pearl hardware encoders make it easy to produce videos that look and sound professional.

 

Create polished, multi-source video productions

Connect high-end cameras, laptops, tablets, document cameras, and microphones to Pearl to produce first-rate live streams and recordings. No additional capture cards, audio interfaces, or video recording software required.

Authenticate to Panopto directly from Pearl

Users can authenticate to Panopto through Pearl’s built-in screen to automatically push recordings to their folders after unscheduled events.

Preview and monitor video productions

Pearl systems feature a unique, built-in screen that offers at-a-glance video and audio monitoring during streaming or recording. Perfect for troubleshooting and production peace of mind.

Create custom layouts and ISOs

Combine video and audio sources to create dynamic layouts for your audience, or capture individual ISOs – up to six channels.

Train users with ease

Pearl’s simplified user interfaces ensure the device is easy for anyone to use. With hands-off recording and streaming, users can focus more on the event and less on the technology capturing it.

Stream to multiple destinations

Stream simultaneously to YouTube, Facebook, and other content delivery networks (CDNs). Pearl systems support a wide range of streaming protocols including SRT, HLS, and MPEG-DASH along with traditional protocols like RTMP and RTMPS.

Signal streaming and recording

Connect a USB status light to Pearl to let your in-room audience know when streaming or recording is underway. (Select models from Busylight and Delcom Products are supported.)

Integrate with your Crestron system

The Crestron-developed Control Module for Pearl encoders simplifies the process of adding Pearl to your Crestron AV system as a secure and reliable video capture device.

Add to any network

DHCP and LDAP support, 802.1x network access control, role-based access control, and SSL, and other advanced security features make it easy to add Pearl to your network as a secure Panopto remote recorder.
