The VePLAYER PRO bridges IP distribution and live production. It takes the streams from your VeCASTER, VeCODER, or INFINIUM encoders — SRT, UDP, HLS, RTMP and more — decodes HEVC or H.264 up to 4K to HDMI, and simultaneously exposes the decoded feed on the network as NDI. API/Telnet control makes it a first-class citizen of any automation system.
Professional IP Video Decoder · NDI
Decode to HDMI — and to NDI Production
Receive any professional IP stream, play it to HDMI up to 4K, and republish the decoded video as an NDI source for vMix, OBS, and TriCaster.
Capabilities
Where IP Distribution Meets Production
One device receives your IP channels for display and feeds your production switcher over NDI — no extra converters.
- Receives SRT, UDP, HTTP, HLS, RTP, RTSP, ONVIF, RTMP(S) · unicast & multicast
- Decodes HEVC / H.264 up to 4K (3840×2160@30 / 1080p@60) to HDMI
- NDI output — decoded video as a production source for vMix, OBS, TriCaster
- API / Telnet control · web interface · SRT ultra-low latency
- Auto-reconnect · auto-pairing with PVI encoders
Completes the Chain
Automate Every Display and Feed
API and Telnet control let your control system switch streams, recall layouts, and integrate the decoder into broadcast and AV automation.
Pair with any VeCASTER or VeCODER encoder, or the INFINIUM 4K headend. Need four channels in a rack with SDI? See the VePLAYER ULTRA-4 RACK. Need the affordable single-display endpoint? See the IPdecoder HD 4K.

FAQ
VePLAYER PRO — FAQ
What does the NDI output add?
Beyond playing the stream to HDMI, the VePLAYER PRO republishes the decoded video as an NDI source on your network, so production tools like vMix, OBS, and TriCaster can use it directly — no capture card needed.
What streams can it receive?
SRT, UDP, HTTP, HLS, RTP, RTSP, ONVIF, and RTMP(S), unicast or multicast, decoding HEVC and H.264 up to 4K.
Can it be controlled by an automation system?
Yes. A full API and Telnet interface lets control systems switch streams, recall settings, and integrate the decoder into AV and broadcast automation.
Does it pair with PVI encoders automatically?
Yes — it auto-pairs with PVI encoders and auto-reconnects if the network is interrupted.
How is it different from the standard VePLAYER?
The VePLAYER PRO adds NDI output for live-production workflows. If you don't need NDI, the standard VePLAYER covers single-stream HDMI decoding.
Is this for watching internet TV?
No. It is professional AV equipment for receiving your own encoders' streams and feeding production systems — not a consumer streaming box.
Need four channels or SDI?
Choose the VePLAYER ULTRA-4 RACK for four channels with HDMI and SDI outputs, or the VePLAYER-SDI for single-channel SDI.
