Professional connectivity

Have the connectivity required for today’s variety of productions. Io 4K supports 4K, UltraHD, 3G-SDI, Dual Link, HD-SDI and SD-SDI as well as UltraHD and HD over HDMI 1.4a for both capture and output. The HDMI output is also able to accurately display HDR 10, HLG to support emerging HDR workflows.

Thunderbolt 2 technology allows even greater bandwidth between host computer systems and properly engineered Thunderbolt devices. AJA’s Io 4K takes full advantage of this improved throughput to allow capture and output of video signals from SD to 4K and everything in between.

Futureproof

Io 4K offers broad and futureproof support for formats all the way from SD to 4K. The realtime down-converter also means you can work at higher resolutions and easily create lower resolution deliverables without the need to recapture or re-edit.

With applicable streaming software, you can utilize all 4x 3G-SDI connections for live stream switching from multiple input sources.

HDR

HDR or High Dynamic Range, provides the ability to display a wider and richer range of colors, much brighter whites, and much deeper, darker blacks than standard signals allow. This gives your imagery a more ‘dynamic’ look and allows for natural true to life colors to be communicated to your audience.

Io 4K provides this support for your 4K/UltraHD/2K and HD HDR pipelines to HDMI compatible displays in software v12.5 and above by offering HDR 10 support with HDR Infoframe metadata, in accordance with HDMI 2.0a/CTA-861.3. Desktop Software v13 introduces HLG support over HDMI for the latest versions of Adobe Premiere CC.

Monitor 4K in HD

When working at 4K resolutions, Io 4K outputs a high quality HD-SDI down-converted signal on a dedicated BNC connector. This HD signal can be used to output 4K projects directly to HD recorders for broadcast and for easy viewing of 4K images on HD monitors during postproduction.

Powerful

Thunderbolt 2 technology increases the available bandwidth that can be carried on a single Thunderbolt cable. Io 4K capitalizes on this increased capacity to allow up to 4K signals to be captured and output.

With dual Thunderbolt 2 ports, compatible with Thunderbolt 3, Io 4K can daisy chain additional devices together such as high resolution displays and high capacity storage for a complete, portable solution that’s powerful enough to meet the demands of professional production.

Extensive software support

AJA hardware is supported by an extensive list of professional software for editing, visual effects, graphics and more allowing the same AJA device to be used by many different applications on the same system. In addition, AJA provides several free applications that enable you to utilize the power of your AJA hardware even without having to run a particular software package. This allows you to create unique workflows without tying up valuable resources unnecessarily.

Integrated Audio

Embedded 16-Channel SDI and 8-Channel HDMI audio are supported as well as analog audio outputs via a standard DB-25 connection. Stereo monitoring is also possible with 2 x RCA outputs and a front panel mini-TRS headphone jack.

Sync up

Io 4K can be locked to an external reference for integration into larger productions, or feed LTC in and out to ensure footage captured with Io 4K has the proper timecode.

Machine control

An RS-422 port allows control of tape decks for frame accurate captures and layoffs.

In this Quick Start guide, we walk through the process of setting up an Unreal Engine Project to work with a professional video card from AJA Video Systems. At the end of this guide:

  • you'll have video input from your AJA card playing inside your Unreal Engine Project.

  • you'll be able to capture camera viewpoints both from the Editor and from your runtime application, and send them out to an SDI port on your AJA card.

  • you'll know where to go when you want to set up more advanced adjustments to your video inputs, such as correcting lens deformation and applying chroma-keying effects.

For a working example that shows many of the elements described below put into practice, see the Virtual Studio showcase, available on the Learn tab of the Epic Games Launcher.

Prerequisites:

  • Make sure that you have a supported card from AJA Video Systems, and that you've installed the necessary drivers and software. For details, see the AJA Media Reference page.

  • Make sure that your card is working correctly, and that you have some video input feeding in to at least one of the card's SDI ports.

  • Open an Unreal Engine Project that you want to integrate with your video feeds. This page shows the steps in the Third Person Blueprint template, but the same steps will work equally well in any Project.

The AJA Media components used in this guide are built on top of the Media Framework , and we'll use Blueprints to script the video capturing process at runtime. Some prior knowledge of these topics is recommended but not required.

1 - Set Up the Project

Before you can get video input from your AJA card into your Unreal Engine Level, and send output from the Unreal Engine through one of your AJA card's SDI ports, you'll need to do some basic setup to enable the AJA Media Player Plugin in your Project.

If you started your Unreal Engine Project from one of the Templates in the Film, Television, and Live Events category, the necessary plugins may already be enabled for you. If not, follow the instructions below to enable them.

Steps

  1. Open the Project that you want to use with AJA video I/O in the Unreal Editor.

  2. From the main menu, select Edit > Plugins.

  3. In the Plugins window, find the AJA Media Player plugin under the Media Players category. Check its Enabled checkbox.

  4. Find the Media Framework Utilities Plugin under the Media category. Check its Enabled checkbox, if it's not already checked.

  5. Click Restart Now to restart the Unreal Editor and reopen your Project.

End Result

Your Project is now ready to accept video from the AJA card, and to send rendered output to the card. In the next sections, we'll hook it up and start playing video in and out.

2 - Rendering Video Input in the Unreal Engine

In this process, we'll make video input from the AJA card visible in the current Level in the Unreal Editor. This process uses a Media Bundle: a kind of Asset that packages together several different types of Assets involved in the Media Framework, and that offers you control over some advanced features like lens deformation, chroma-keying, color correction, and more.

Steps

  1. In your Content Browser, expand the Sources panel (1). Right-click, and choose New Folder from the context menu (2).

    Rename your new folder AJA.

  2. Open your new folder, right-click in the Content Browser and choose Media > Media Bundle.

  3. Your new Asset's name is automatically selected in the Content Browser, so you can give it a descriptive name:

    Type a new name, like AjaMediaBundle, and press Enter. A new folder of Media Framework Assets is automatically created next to your Media Bundle, named with the suffix _InnerAssets.

  4. Save your new Assets by clicking the Save All button in the Content Browser.

  5. Double-click your new Media Bundle to edit its properties. The Media Bundle is capable of playing video from any kind of media source the Engine supports, so you'll need to tell it that you want to get the video from your AJA card.
    In the Media Source property, select Aja Media Source from the drop-down list:

  6. Once you've identified the type of Media Source you want the Media Bundle to handle, you can then set up any configuration properties offered by that type of source.
    The most important thing to set here for the Aja Media Source is the Configuration setting, to make sure that the bundle is set up to capture video from the right device and input port, using the same resolution and frame rate as the actual video feed. Click the arrow to open the settings submenu, select the options that match your setup, then click Apply in the submenu.


    The options you see may vary depending on the devices you have installed. For details on all of the properties you can set for an AJA Media Source, see the AJA Media Reference page.

  7. If you want to apply any compensation to the incoming video to account for lens distortion, you can set up the physical properties of the lens in the Lens Parameters section.


    These Lens Parameters just set up the physical properties of the lens. You'll actually activate the lens compensation later, when you edit the Material Instance used by the Media Bundle.
    Save your Media Bundle when you're done setting up its properties, and return to the AJA folder in the Content Browser.

  8. Drag your AjaMediaBundle Asset from the Content Browser into the Level Viewport.


    You'll see a new plane appear, showing the video currently being played over the port configured for your Media Bundle. Use the transform tools in the Viewport toolbar to move, rotate, and resize it.
    If your Media Bundle doesn't start playing automatically, select it, then click the Media Bundle > Request Play Media button in the Details panel.

  9. Now, we'll see how to apply keying and compositing effects to the video stream.
    Back in the Media Bundle Editor, click the Open Material Editor button in the Toolbar to edit the Material Instance that this Media Bundle uses to draw its incoming video feed on to an object in the Level.


    This Material Instance is saved inside the AjaMediaBundle_InnerAssets folder that was created automatically with your Media Bundle.

  10. In the Material Instance Editor, you'll see a number of properties exposed for you to configure keying, cropping, and color correction, and to activate the correction for the lens distortion that you set up in the Media Bundle.


    While you adjust the settings in the Material Instance Editor, you can see the effect of your changes on the video feed playing back in the main Level Viewport.

    You may find it more convenient to see the effects of the changes you make in the preview panel of the Material Instance Editor instead. To do this, temporarily enable the IsValid setting, and set its value to 1.0.

    Click the arrow at the top left of the viewport toolbar, and enable the Realtime option in the menu.

    You'll be able to judge the effect of your changes more easily by changing the preview mesh to a plane or a cube. Use the controls at the bottom of the viewport:

    When you're done, return the IsValid setting to its previous value.

  11. When you're done changing the Material Instance properties, click the Save button in the Toolbar.

End Result

At this point, you should have video playing over an SDI port showing up inside your Unreal Engine Level, and you should understand where to set up more advanced features like lens deformation and chroma-keying.

If you're already familiar with the Media Framework, another way you could get video into your Level is to create a new AjaMediaSource Asset in your Project, and set it up with the same source properties you set up inside the Media Bundle in the procedure above. Then, create your own MediaPlayer and MediaTexture Assets to handle the playback of that source in your Level. For details, see the Media Framework documentation. However, we recommend using the Media Bundle, as shown above, to get the best balance between ease of use and professional quality video features.

3 - Output Captures from the Unreal Editor

In this process, you'll set up an AJA Media Output object, and use the Media Captures panel in the Unreal Editor to output the view from selected cameras in the Level to your AJA card.

Steps

  1. Right-click in the Content Browser, and select Media > Aja Media Output.


    Name your new Asset AjaMediaOutput.

  2. Double-click your new Asset to open it up for editing. Just like when you created your Aja Media Source, you have to set up the Configuration property to control the properties of the video feed that the Unreal Engine sends to your AJA card. Click the arrow to open the submenu, select the options that match your video setup, then click Apply in the submenu.


    For details on all of the properties you can set in the AJA Media Output, see the AJA Media Reference page.Save and close your Media Output when you're done.

  3. Now we'll place two cameras in the Level, to give us viewpoints for the output we'll send to the AJA card. In the Place Actors panel, open the Cinematic tab, and drag two instances of the Cine Camera Actor into the viewport.


    Place the cameras where you want them in the Level, so that they're showing different viewpoints on the scene.

    Piloting the camera is a fast and easy way to set its viewpoint exactly the way you want it. See Pilot Actors in the Viewport .

  4. From the main menu, choose Window > Media Capture. You'll use the Media Capture window to control when the Editor sends output to your AJA port, and what camera it should use in the Level.

  5. Under the Media Viewport Capture area, find the Viewport Captures control. Click the + button to add a new capture to this list.

  6. Expand the new entry. First, we'll add the cameras that we want to capture from. In the Locked Camera Actors control, click the + button to add a new entry.


    Then, use the drop-down list to choose one of the cameras you placed in the Level.


    Repeat the same steps to add the other camera to the list.

  7. Now, set up the output that you want to capture these cameras to. Set the Media Output control to point to the new AJA Media Output Asset that you created above. You can do this by selecting it in the drop-down list, or drag your AJA Media Output Asset from the Content Browser and drop it into this slot.

  8. At the top of the window, click the Capture button.


    You'll see a new frame at the bottom of the window that shows a preview of the output being sent to the AJA card. If you have this port hooked up to another downstream device, you should start to see the output coming through.

  9. Each camera that you added to the Locked Camera Actors list for this viewport capture is represented by a corresponding button above the video preview. Click the buttons to switch the capture back and forth between the two views.

Now you've set up the Unreal Editor to stream output from cameras in your Level to a port on your AJA card. Next, we'll see how to use Blueprint scripting to do the same thing in a running Unreal Engine Project.

4 - Output Captures at Runtime

The Media Capture window that you used in the last section is a practical and easy way to send captures to the AJA card. However, it only works inside the Unreal Editor. To do the same thing when you're running your Project as a standalone application, you'll need to use the Blueprint API provided by the Media Output. In this procedure, we'll set up a simple toggle switch in the Level Blueprint that starts and stops capturing when the player presses a key on the keyboard.

The Virtual Studio showcase, available on the Learn tab of the Epic Games Launcher, contains a UMG interface widget that demonstrates how you could control capturing from an on-screen user interface.

Steps

  1. From the main toolbar in the Unreal Editor, choose Blueprints > Open Level Blueprint.

  2. We'll need to start from the AJA Media Output Asset that you've created, where you identify the port you want to output to. In the Variables list in the My Blueprint panel, click the + button to add a new variable.

  3. In the Details panel, set the Variable Name to AjaMediaOutput, and use the Variable Type drop-down list to make it an Aja Media Output Object Reference.

  4. Enable the Instance Editable setting (1), and compile the Blueprint. Then, in the Default Value section, set the variable to point to the AJA Media Output Asset that you created in your Content Browser (2).

  5. Press Ctrl, and drag the AjaMediaOutput from the Variables list in the My Blueprint panel into the Event Graph.

  6. Click and drag from the output port of the AjaMediaOutput variable node, and choose Media > Output > Create Media Capture.

    Hook up your nodes to the Event BeginPlay node as shown below:

    This creates a new Media Capture object from your Aja Media Output. The Media Capture offers two main Blueprint functions that we'll use to control the capturing: Capture Active Scene Viewport and Stop Capture.

  7. First, we'll save the new Media Capture object into its own variable, so we can get access to it again elsewhere. Click and drag from the output port of the Create Media Capture node, and choose Promote to Variable.

    Rename the new variable MediaCapture in the Variables list in the My Blueprint panel.

    It's important to save the Media Capture to a variable here. If you don't, the Unreal Engine's garbage collector may destroy it automatically before you're done with it.

  8. Press Ctrl and drag the MediaCapture variable into the Event Graph.

  9. Click and drag from the output port of the MediaCapture variable node, and choose Media > Output > Capture Active Scene Viewport. Do it again, and choose Media > Output > Stop Capture.

  10. Right-click in the Event Graph and choose Input > Keyboard Events > P. Click and drag from the Pressed output of the P node and choose Flow Control > FlipFlop.

  11. Connect the A output of the FlipFlop node to the input event of the Capture Active Scene Viewport node, and connect the B output of the FlipFlop node to the input event of the Stop Capture node, as shown below:

  12. Compile and save the Blueprint, and try playing your Project. Click the arrow next to the Play button in the main Toolbar, and choose either the New Editor Window (PIE) or Standalone Game option.

    Video capture from the Editor will only work when you play your Project in a New Editor Window (PIE) or a Standalone Game. It won't work in the default Selected Viewport mode, or in Simulate mode.
    In addition, the viewport resolution of your Project (that is, the size of the rendered image the Unreal Engine generates each frame) must match the output resolution set in the active Media Profile, so that it will be the right size for the output video feed.

    After your project starts up, you should be able to press the P button on your keyboard to toggle sending the output from the Engine to the AJA card.
