Video Node
The Video Node plays video over HDMI with hardware decoding and seamless transitions — for screens that are part of the story, not a distraction.
When a screen is a window, a portal or a character, it cannot stutter or flash a desktop. The Video Node decodes video in hardware and transitions cleanly between clips, so on-screen moments are as reliable as the rest of the show. EDID lock keeps the display stable even if a projector or panel is power-cycled.
- Hardware-decoded H.264 / HEVC playback
- HDMI output with EDID lock for stable displays
- Seamless transitions and crossfades between clips
- Play, stop, seek and advance under show control
- Loop support for continuous scenes
- Built on Raspberry Pi 5-class compute
A portrait that watches you
In a museum's haunted-house exhibit, a framed display shows a still portrait until a sensor notices a visitor lingering — then the Video Node crossfades to the portrait blinking and turning its head, and back, seamlessly, hundreds of times a day, with no boot screens and no stutter.
See the Video Node in a live show.
