Datavideo TC-200

The Datavideo TC-200 converts computer graphics from a laptop into a live HD/SD image. Using the included CG-200 software, it sends the graphics via HDMI to the TC-200 unit, which embeds them into the video signal and provides two HD-SDI outputs. It is suitable for captions, labels, guest names, and other graphic elements during live broadcasts, conferences, and presentations. Official Datavideo documentation states that the CG-200 is compatible with Windows 7 and Windows 10; compatibility with newer versions of Windows is not confirmed in this documentation.
