CAM300 specific
We support VGA, component and composite video on each of our analog capture devices.
If your device has a VGA input, you must use a VGA to component adapter in order to capture your component source. If your device has a DVI input, you must use a DVI to component adapter in order to capture your component source. You can capture composite video if you use the green connection of the same adapter.
Note that the DVIUSB product does not support analog video.
Analog video support
>Yes. All of our devices are supported by the ClickShare. ClickShare will capture video from our devices at 720p@30fps using MJPEG compression. Here are some details you might be interested.
For all our devices use USB 2.0 cables and extenders to ensure the use of MJPEG.
For SHARE2 and SHARE2U:
- You can plug the devices to any USB ports on the ClickShare device.
- The SHARE2 and SHARE2U can be used as an Audio Bridge to join microphone/speaker.
- To enable 720p set the DIP switch #1 to ON under the device
For CAM300:
- You can plug the devices to any USB ports on the ClickShare device.
- You cannot use the CAM300 as a speakerphone. Only video capture is available.

- You cannot use the devices as a speakerphone. Only video capture is available.
Compatibility with Barco ClickShare CX20/30/50
>Yes. The SHARE2U and CAM300 are compatible with UC Flex engines. However, PTZ controls are not passing through the USB cameras when SHARE2U/CAM300 is in the path. You can use our API to access PTZ controls of the USB cameras through the IP and LAN interfaces of the devices.
Compatibility with Crestron UC Flex Engine
>Yes. All of our devices are supported by the Kramer Connect2. Our devices can be used as a CAM300 inside Zoom and Teams apps.
*Slight detail for SHARE2U, SHARE2 and CAM300300, in order to use with Teams, make sure DIPSW#1 is ON to enable 720p video capture.
Compatibility with Kramer Connect2
>Yes, these modules are available under the Support – Software tools section of our website.
Crestron modules
>Yes, our devices are compatible with this Zoom Rooms functionality. However, you must make you have this option enabled in your Zoom account. Please visit the following page for more details.

>Before 2021, the HDMI input of SHARE2U and CAM300 was limited to 1080p30. If you input a 1080p60 signal, the HDMI LED on the front panel blinks.
Note that a new upgraded version of these products that supports 1080p60 on the HDMI input will be available by mid-2021.
– SHARE2U products with serial numbers higher than SU2111xxx and SUM111xxx.
– CAM300 products with serial numbers higher than KC2111xxx and KCM111xxx.

>By setting SW3 to the ON position below the device, you can set the device frame buffer frequency to 50Hz. This switch will also set the USB input capture to a valid frame rate in order to avoid any artifacts.
Power line frequency artifacts
>Yes if the application supports PTZ controls. For example, ZOOM ROOMS support PTZ controls.

>We designed an application in order to control SHARE2/2U or CAM series devices using the USB or LAN interface. You can get the INOGENI Control App in the Support – Software tools section of this website.

>Below the device, there are switches. You need to turn on SW1 and power cycle the unit in order to make it work with GoToMeeting.
This switch allows you to support multiple video formats over USB like 720p and 1080p. When this switch is off, 1080p is the only format supported and GoToMeeting/Webex/StarLeaf does not seem to support 1080p. GoToMeeting/Webex/StarLeaf* supports 720p. The SW1 in OFF position is the default mode. We did that in order to have maximum quality over video conferencing softwares.
* Using StarLeaf, you will need to have access to the switches below the device. Set SW1 to the ON position, power-cycle the unit and close / reopen StarLeaf software in order for changes to take effect.

>You can use our HID Software Kit available in the Software upgrade page in order to access the HID device of the INOGENI product. You will then have access to INOGENI product internal registers and commands. It will then be possible to do a firmware update, get firmware versions and also get the input format.
You can also have a look at the INOGEN Control App. This is a Qt C++ application.
How to access the HID device
>You can install easily gstreamer using an ArchLinux distribution like Manjaro. The gstreamer source code is already in the official repositories of ArchLinux.
You can install gstreamer on Ubuntu, but it will be harder. You can do the following command lines to install gstreamer on your system.
sudo apt-get build-dep libgstreamer1.0-0 gstreamer1.0-plugins-base gstreamer1.0-plugins-good
mkdir -p ~/gst/master/prefix
cd ~/gst/master
for m in orc gstreamer gst-plugins-base gst-plugins-good ; do git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/$m ; done
mkdir ~/bin
ln -s /home/
run the ~/bin/gst-master script to enter into the uninstalled environment
for m in orc gstreamer gst-plugins-base gst-plugins-good ; do cd $m && ./autogen.sh –prefix=/home/
Now you have an uninstalled build of gstreamer master and can run whatever pipeline you want when running the gst-master script.
In order to have an uninstalled with the 1.6 branch do the following.
cp -r ~/gst/master ~/gst/1.6
ln -s /home/
Run the ~/bin/gst-1.6 script
for m in gstreamer gst-plugins-base gst-plugins-good ; do cd $m && git clean -dfx && git checkout 1.6 && git submodule update && cd .. ; done
cd orc
./autogen.sh –prefix=/home/
make clean
make -j4
cd ..
for m in gstreamer gst-plugins-base gst-plugins-good ; do cd $m && ./autogen.sh –prefix=/home/
