The j5create JVA06-N is a dual HDMI video capture card for live streamers and content creators who want to combine two HDMI sources, such as a camera and a games console, in one stream. It captures uncompressed 1080p from both inputs at once over USB-C and lets you arrange them on screen in real time.

Six screen modes include picture-in-picture (PIP) and picture-by-picture (PBP), and built-in buttons switch modes, adjust transitions and turn on chroma key to drop in a new background. A built-in audio mixer handles three inputs, HDMI A, HDMI B and a 3.5 mm microphone, with individual on/off switches and volume indicators, and an HDMI loop-out sends the programme output to a monitor at 1080p 60Hz. Two cold shoe adapters attach it to a DSLR, and it runs on USB bus power or from a USB-C Power Delivery 3.0 supply.
