Simultaneously input, output, and live stream high-definition video broadcasts with this V-160HD SDI/HDMI Streaming Video Switcher from Roland. This multi-format hybrid video switcher allows you to input up to eight HDMI video sources and eight 3G-SDI video sources, switch them, add effects, and output them consistently to displays, projectors, recording units, and now via USB Type-C for live streaming applications.

The HDMI and 3G-SDI inputs can accept up to 1080p60 resolution feeds from numerous sources such as media players, computers, or professional video cameras, and they all support frame rate converters. Four of the HDMI inputs utilize real-time internal scaling hardware, which separately scales and/or converts videos of varied resolutions into the selected output resolution, ensuring output consistency between sources. It features a total of seven outputs comprised of SDI, HDMI, and USB Type-C for streaming, as well as Bluetooth for control for using an iPad, macOS, or Windows device.

The V-160HD features an eight-layer video effects engine, four PiP (picture-in-picture) outputs, channels for up to 16 still images, and two downstream keyers supporting numerous effects such as cut, mix, wipe, chroma key, luma key, flip, fade, and more. You can store up to 16 .jpg, .bmp, and .png files up to 1920 x 1080 resolution in internal memory to add images to your effects. It supports live production automation, macros, presets, and cue management to make broadcasting and planning your live show easier. You can also control up to 16 PTZ cameras from numerous brands using IP or RS-232 serial, consolidating all control in the V-160HD, and it also supports GPIO, wired, and wireless tally.

Hybrid to the Max

The V-160HD combines the robust hardware needed to flawlessly execute live productions with the livestreaming capabilities found in computer-based systems. While software workflows are fine for online-only events, the V-160HD delivers the pro essentials you need for both the in-person and streaming components of a live hybrid event, complete with the ability to tailor the content for each audience.

  • On-demand signal processing means you never have to worry about issues like computer CPU overhead, latency, and output delay on live audience screens.
  • Integrated connectivity standards like SDI, HDMI, XLR, and USB-C eliminate the need to build out costly infrastructure and conversion processes.
  • The comprehensive interface provides hands-on controls that can be learned quickly by a single operator.
  • Presets, macros, and advanced sequencing features let you set up and automate complex switching tasks with one touch.

Hybrid to the Max

HDMI and SDI Connectivity

The V-160HD supports HDMI for common A/V devices plus SDI for long cable runs and high-end cameras. Seamlessly mix eight HDMI sources and eight SDI sources in Full HD, even with mismatched frame rates and color spaces. And with built-in scalers on four of the HDMI inputs, you can easily interface with client-provided sources like computers, tablets, smartphones, gaming consoles, and legacy 4:3 devices.


V-160HD Rear Panel

Send to Multiple Destinations

With seven freely assignable outputs—including three SDI, three HDMI, and one USB-C streaming—the V-160HD puts a high-end video matrix at your command. Feed program displays, auxiliary monitors, multi-view producer displays, and the online audience at once, complete with a “clean” output left over for a recording feed.


Send to Multiple Destinations

Instant Recall

Storing and recalling custom looks can be accomplished with just a few button presses on the V-160HD.

  • The 30 preset memories and powerful effects engine work together to provide seamless scene changes, including synchronizing the transition of all composition layers at the program output.
  • The 100 macros go even deeper, allowing you to build and fire off complex action lists that include switching, DSK on/off, audio mixing adjustments, PTZ camera movements, and much more.

Our free remote control software for macOS, Windows, and iPad further enhances this workflow, providing a large graphical interface for setting up and previewing actions before you take them live.


Instant Recall

One-Touch Automation

The V-160HD’s newly developed sequencer makes presets and macros even more powerful, allowing a single operator to execute perfectly timed cues with ease. Up to 1000 steps can be recorded in the sequencer, and each step can include both presets and macros. Simply set up your cues ahead of time in the sequence list and trigger them in order using the Next button on the panel. With the power of the V-160HD’s sequencer, you can tackle the most complex events without ever breaking a sweat.


 

Powerful Video Effects Engine

Video effects and graphics are must-haves to bring polish and excitement to any production. The V-160HD’s effects engine features eight composition layers that can be assigned to the Program, Sub-Program, and Aux outs, so you’ll always keep audiences engaged with visually appealing content. With up to four picture-in-picture windows, downstream key layers, 16 still store slots with transparent PNG image support, and more, you can manage the creative needs of any client. For example:



Powerful Video Effects Engine

 

Layers 1-2: Start with a mixable live background video layer.

Layers 3-6: Place four picture-in-picture layers or chroma/luminance key effects.

Layers 7-8: Add two downstream keyers with support for fill and key inputs.

 

Stream Live

The V-160HD uses the same connection technology as webcams,* allowing you to stream events at 23.98 to 60 FPS in Full HD** and reach a worldwide audience. Simply connect the USB-C output to a computer and start streaming with Zoom, Microsoft Teams, YouTube, Facebook Live, or any platform that can use a webcam as its source. Everything is plug and play, with no driver installation needed.
*USB video class (UVC) and USB audio class (UAC) compliant.
**YUY2 (uncompressed) and Motion JPEG (compressed) formats supported.

Sonic Perfection

The V-160HD features a 40-channel digital audio mixer with studio-grade sound quality. Mix any embedded audio signal pair (1/2, 3/4, 5/6, 7/8) from each of the 16 video inputs, microphones and line-level devices connected to the two balanced XLR combo and stereo RCA inputs, and USB-C audio. And with the convenience of onboard Bluetooth, it’s possible to wirelessly stream music and other sound sources from a phone or tablet as well. There’s also an extensive effects library for polishing sounds and quickly resolving common issues like audio synchronization and background noise removal.


 

Extensive PTZ Camera Support

Robotic PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) cameras eliminate the need for multiple camera operators, provide great production coverage with studio-grade broadcast quality, and can be placed in discreet locations thanks to their small size. The V-160HD includes built-in support to directly control select Canon, JVC, Panasonic, Sony, PTZOptics, Avonic, and VISCA-compatible PTZ LAN cameras. Mix and match different brands as you like and operate up to 16 PTZ cameras simultaneously.


Extensive PTZ Camera Support
