CONNECTING LAPTOPS

In most cases, you will connect a single camera or a video switcher to the UVC-02's HDMI input. But if you want to set up another computer as your HDMI source, there are two ways to set up the computer's HDMI output to your UVC-02: Duplicate and Extend.

Duplicate creates a copy of your Desktop, including your Taskbar or Dock. Your mouse will appear on both screens.
Extend creates a clean desktop, and you can move your mouse between the two.

These guides walk you through general setup in Windows 10 and MacOS:

If you use software that generates visuals or plays media files, there may be additional screen output settings in the software:

HDCP TROUBLESHOOTING

The UVC-02 supports many video source devices, but DVD/Blu-Ray players and Streaming Boxes will not pass a signal due to HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection).

HDMI CAT Extenders: These are a pair of converters that extend an HDMI signal by converting it to Ethernet and back to HDMI again. These extenders may add HDCP to the signal, even if the source is a camera. Please check with the extender's manufacturer regarding compatibility. SDI converters or HDBaseT extenders are recommended as they do not add or require HDCP.

Game Consoles: These may have HDCP enabled by default for all games and content, or just for streaming services and disc playback. If you want to stream or record the Roland's output, then HDCP needs to be disabled on both the game console and the Roland. Consoles either do this automatically or have a menu setting. Check your game console's manual for more information.
