Verdict

Blackmagic Design ATEM Mini

9 / 10 Expert Rating

The standard choice for live multi-camera switching that plays nicely with any capture software as a single UVC source.

Roland VC-1-DL

7 / 10 Expert Rating

A genuinely useful multi-format converter for legacy AV environments, far more niche and pricier than a typical gaming capture card.
