I have a need to send some HDMI video (not copy protected) feeds into a LAN and on to Blue Iris. What I think I need is a HDMI to H.264 encoder. I see a variety of them out there...are there any models that are known to work for sure with BI5?
Basically looking for any recommendations before I buy :)

Thanks

What is the feed your are sending. There may be better solutions. Is it a pc desktop?

Drone aircraft controllers, tablet outputs (screen mirrors...and no, they are not on the same network as BI), video matrix switcher, and probably more that will come up. A lot of devices have HDMI output, so being able to get that into BI opens up a lot of possibilities (for both recording and remote viewing via the the Web interface).
