That MacroSilicon MS2109 capture is super interesting! $11 shipped for 1080p30 capture is unbeatable. I wonder what kind of host SBC is going to be necessary to build a clone BlackMagic ATEM Mini without choking up USB bandwidth.

Ah! That's the name of it. Thanks! I didn't know how to tie it to any kind of identifier.

A USB 2.0 device can use up to 480Mbps and MJPEG is on the order of 10s of Mbps (estimated), so I don't think you're anywhere near needing to worry about bandwidth.

Your biggest complication will be real-time re-encoding and compositing with effects.

I can't believe it until I see it. I've seen USB EHCI choke up from just three webcams.
