Magewell plans to unveil its new “Director Plus” portable 4K production and presentation system at InfoComm 2026 in Las Vegas. The third in the Director series, Director Plus builds upon the extensive features of existing models, offering expanded HDMI I/O and IP inputs, 4K/60FPS recording and streaming capabilities, and enhanced network connectivity including an integrated 5G modem and 2.5Gbps Ethernet.
Designed with portability in mind, yet ideal for a wide range of environments and applications, Director Plus is described as a broadcast-grade, all-in-one 4K production and presentation system that supports end-to-end live video workflows.
Users can flexibly capture live AV feeds and media assets from a variety of devices, networks, and third-party software platforms. In addition to multiple source switching and compositing capabilities, it features powerful production functions such as telestrations (writing on screen) and instant replay, enabling the creation of visually compelling content for sports, religious services, medical information, corporate communications, education, podcasts, and more.
What is the Magewell Director Plus ?
In line with Magewell’s philosophy of “any source, anywhere,” Director Plus offers industry-leading AV and IP input flexibility. It supports four HDMI inputs, two USB inputs, up to 10 live IP sources (including SRT, RTMP, RTSP, NDI High Bandwidth, and NDI HX3), HTML web pages, file-based media assets, and mobile cameras.
Director Plus can simultaneously combine up to six 4K/60 sources (2 HDMI, 1 USB, 3 IP) or up to 16 1080p60 HD sources (4 HDMI, 2 USB, 10 IP). For output, it features two HDMI and one USB-C interface, and supports NDI HX3 and various streaming formats.
With enhanced network connectivity that combines 5G cellular, Wi-Fi, and 2.5Gbps Ethernet, Director Plus can receive and transmit multiple network streams, ensuring high-quality live streaming performance even in challenging or low-bandwidth environments. A built-in 7-inch (approx. 17.8cm) touchscreen, the free “Director Utility” mobile app, plugins, and API support for third-party systems provide control options tailored to user needs.
“Today’s content creators demand flexibility in how and where they create their content, without compromising on quality,” Amy Zhou, Sales Director at Magewell, commented. “Director Plus meets these needs by providing maximum signal count and quality at an affordable price, while maintaining Magewell’s renowned reliability and ease of use.”
InfoComm 2026 attendees can experience Director Plus and Magewell’s entire lineup of production tools at booth N7736, delivering the performance and quality expected in today’s demanding AV environments.
