The current version supports UVC external video sources. Some modern cinema cameras and devices can deliver UVC video via USB-C directly. You can also connect your video source's HDMI or SDI output to a USB capture adapter (*Note: this is not the same as a USB to HDMI cable!*). Future updates will include expanded connectivity options, such as NDI sources.
*** UVC external camera support is ONLY available on iPads with a USB-C port and iPad OS 18+ ***
CineMon is also a highly advanced video player!
