With the capability to ingest video through 3G HD/SDI, HDMI or analog composite inputs, the Talon G1 can encode up to three streams simultaneously, save to a .TS file, with frame alignment across all streams for multiple-bit-rate streaming. The encoder features a Web-based interface, small form factor, and low power consumption. The Talon G1 also features a Lecture Capture mode, which can capture a camera feed and a second resource and deliver it over IP.

Osprey Video will release the Osprey Talon G1 encoder as of March 1 at a starting price of $1,890. The company is currently accepting pre-orders.
