Dante Studio: Dante video for
your PC
Software Tools that simplify video workflows
Dante Video RX
With Dante Video RX, computers can receive a video signal directly
from Dante AV Ultra or Dante AV-H transmitters, cameras, or other
computers running Dante Studio on their network. Dante Video RX
presents video streams as a webcam or video source to applications
that support the DirectShow interface.
Bring Dante AV PTZ cameras and sources directly into Teams,
Zoom, or other UC software.
Capture video content straight from in room Dante AV sources
into CMS platforms like Panopto or Kaltura.
Add video recording or streaming to your workflow bringing
streams from Dante AV cameras/encoders or computers sharing
content with Dante Video TX into OBS, vMix, or Adobe Premier.
Dante Video TX
Dante Video TX allows you to capture a display connected to your PC
and transmit the captured video over the Dante Network. This video
steam can then be sent to Dante AV Ultra receivers or another instance
of Dante Studio using either Dante Video RX to bring the video into
applications or Video Viewer to view the video in a standalone app.
Share presenter PowerPoints and content directly into
recording or streaming software like OBS and Vmix.
Send lecturer computer content to in room displays or
projectors connected to Dante AV Ultra decoders.
Easily create overflow spaces by sending presentation
content to computers running Video Viewer in full screen
in other rooms.
At this time Dante Video TX only supports Dante AV Ultra
Dante Video Viewer
Dante Video Viewer is a standalone application that allows you see
and monitor a Dante video stream from any Dante AV Ultra or
Dante AV-H enabled device or computer sharing its screen with Dante
Video TX on the Dante network in real time.
Monitor video streams from Dante AV Ultra or Dante AV-H enabled
cameras or encoders in control rooms from live studios.
Receive video to overflow spaces from cameras or presentations
from computers running Video TX.
Enhance AV support workflows by remotely monitoring in room
Dante AV devices.
Dante Studio is a suite of software tools that brings Dante AV video directly into your PC with no additional hardware needed.
Receive video into applications as a camera or video source from Dante AV Ultra or Dante AV-H cameras, encoders or other
computers running Dante Studio on the network. Capture and send your PC’s display as high-quality video to in room displays or
recording and streaming software. Monitor any Dante AV source on your network with confidence. Dante Studio allows you to easily
add Dante video to conferencing, lecture capture, live events, and video production workflows.

Independent Video and Audio
Unlike many video technologies that make it difficult to
separate video and audio signals, Dante AV provides
completely independent video and audio essences that can
be routed wherever needed, allowing products to be used in
a much wider array of applications and settings. Dante
Virtual Soundcard can be used on the same PC as Dante Studio
to make up to 64 channels of lossless audio available to UC,
audio and video capture, or production software. Dante audio
can also be sent to installed loudspeakers, mixers, recording
devices, digital signal processors and more without the need
for de-muxing hardware or special switchers, reducing costs
and complexity.
Features
Dante Studio supports Dante AV Ultra with JPEG2000
codec for high visual fidelity and low latency.
Dante Studio RX and Dante Video Viewer support
H.264/H.265 codecs for applications requiring lower
network bandwidth and computer processing power.
Support for 1080p with automatic scaling.
Direct Show driver for broad application compatibility.
Works with Dante Virtual Soundcard.
Part of the Family
Dante Studio is part of the Dante AV family of AV-over-IP
solutions and shares the well-known and trusted Dante control
and management plane. Dante Controller handles all device
routing, naming and configuration for audio and video devices
alike, allowing operators to see the entire AV network at once.
With Dante Domain Manager all audio and video endpoints
can be secured with user access control, actively monitored,
and remotely accessed to simplify system maintenance
and support.
Dante is by far the most widely used family of AV-over-IP
solutions today. Products made with Dante are instantly
compatible, easy to use, and deliver unrivaled value
and performance.
