Questions

(6:38) 2am

(6:51) Let's see of if the Map pinboard makes it into the show start today 🤞Hopefully YT API limit is leveled down. 😄

(9:04) Have a great stream Aaron.. will tune in latter! Thanks for all you do!

(9:10) Note to self: Never ever meet with Photojoseph. Way too expensive for my budget.

(12:06) had spammers on our stream today. time to switch to subscriber mode too. 😢

(12:55) Hello

(12:58) Hi

(13:02) I am new to YouTube

(13:03) Any advice

(13:18) I thought the SmallRig stream was good. 💡

(13:31) Q: Are you streaming at a lower bitrate than usual? Seems like the compression is a bit harsher than usual.

(13:53) Q: Lumix DC-BGH1 - Pretty penny this side ZAR 37,607 Inc VAT

(14:02) Q: so .. how many did you buy ?

(19:14) 8 - BGH1's ❗

(19:21) $1250 is seriously good. I got mine for 1500 EUR new and that was already dead cheap.

(20:16) Q: Lucky you did not have to go thru customs! Jokes!

(20:32) Going west for cameras...

(21:22) Q: plus no sales tax, if you got them to issue to Oregon .. or maybe no sales tax on 2nd hand anyhow.

(21:57) Q: Do you use the BGH-1s with AF or MF? If AF, are you happy with it?

(22:59) sales tax in the US depends on the receiving address on the invoice.

(23:14) Maybe Lily knows about the sales Tax? Sounds like an OMD Q:

(23:50) I'm surprised that you'd not handcuffed your bag to your wrist.

(23:56) Q: You discuss the camera price, but what about the lenses?

(26:05) BGH-1 AF doesn't seem bad.

(26:13) Jup .. i have 1 of the Panasonic and 2 of the Olympus 14-42 power zoom lenses. It's also convenient, when used with the BMPCC4k, as it can be remote controlled.

(26:28) @Eric Likness The BGH-1 did get the updated AF from the Lumix S5, as it was launched later. So it has better AF than the GH5s, even though it has the GH5s sensor.

(26:40) @Emerald Audiovisual That's cool. I know that GH AF was one reason Aaron liked using the Sony for the overhead.

(28:15) @Eric Likness his overhead one was a G7 or something, wasn't it ? The AF in that would be a bit outdated indeed

(28:20) Is the 16-50mm lens the one you used with it when you used it as the overhead?

(29:10) Q: How do you power the camers?

(29:14) Hi @Nils Braune .. I guess with PoE

(30:09) If you do your shopping in Vancouver, but show an Oregon ID they'll take off the tax haha

(30:16) In California, no matter where you live, they charge sales tax

(30:22) Q: SDI also a big plus for not having dozens of coverters

(30:33) Congrats on new BGH1 collection! You probably already know about updating their firmware if needed :)

(31:09) Q: does the bgh1 record externally braw? Thanks!

(32:05) ProRes RAW using Ninja V

(32:10) Yes: the BGH-1 can record RAW externally in ProRes RAW on the Atomos and BRAW on the BMD Video Assist

(32:21) Vancouver Canada ? Or Vancouver Washington?

(32:45) On the sales tax thing: when I shop stuff in the US, where I need a US address, I use a forwarder in Oregon to avoid sales tax :)

(32:55) Fun story on the GH5-II, it can also be added the same way as the BGH-1's when using a USB-C to Ethernet adapter. Just can't PoE power it. It's the only regular Panasonic body with that feature.

(33:18) What POE switch do you use? Are you likely to hit a limit on that?

(35:46) Q: imagine using Blackmagic Pocket camera, that would expensive

(36:56) When looking for a switch, it's important that it supports PoE+ (the plus is important)

(37:01) @Michael Flotron .. just in case the ++ version would maybe handle 250W

(37:28) You just gotta buy another 17 cameras from that company on eBay to hit that PoE limit lol

(37:36) How oven do you realistically need to go into the menus though?

(39:07) Time to sell some converters

(39:14) There are now 7 sold on ebay, but still says 10+ available.

(40:01) A friend of mine bought a bunch of used camera at an estate sale and is killing it on eBay. Camera prices are ridiculous. I guess some resellers are buying them and refurbing and relisting.

(40:13) Q: You should able to control the BGH-1 from companion too.

(40:22) The 3 Lumix cameras, that support BRAW atm are the BGH-1, S1H and BS1H. The BGH-1 is actually the cheapest Netflix approved camera

(40:45) Q: Whenever the ATEM Constellation 4 M/E HD comes in, are you going to sell the 2 M/E or keep it?

(41:14) Q: Any news on the 4ME?

(43:13) Support for 4M/E is re-assuring. Looks like maybe BMD have parts now.

(43:18) Other than the obvious number of i/o ports, are there any other odd advantages of the 4ME?

(46:52) Oooh that's cool. I have a couple SDI audio extractors to do that and it's kind of a pain

(47:04) X32 rack is an x32 just in a rack 😅

(47:09) The X32 mixer is so lonely, waiting for the BMD Constellation HD 4M/E to ship.

(50:50) @INUX3D Manufacturing The stand looks good!

(50:54) Woah, the studio is back in Full Glory!

(51:03) Aaron needs some side lighting to kill the harsh lighting on the overhead view.

(51:38) Q: why didn’t they just enable rotating in the yolobox pro?

(52:47) @Aaron Parecki have you seen the Yolo max?

(53:26) We have those mini pumpkins all over the house 🙂 talking about spooky week

(53:40) @Emerald Audiovisual my 7yo daughter is over my shoulder and saw them! Now she wants them! Has Aaron got an affiliate link for them!

(54:07) Q - @Aaron Parecki .. do you have a Streamdeck Button for the Links?? come so quick in chat

(54:47) @Zegalles They had the YoloMax at NAB Vegas. It was absolutely ridiculous!!!

(54:52) @Peter Gillespie I was thinking the eBay seller of the BHG-1 should give AaronPK an affiliate link for the remaining cams 😆

(56:28) Affiliate link for eBay camera listings pleas use this one https://ebay.us/yZQ0vx

(56:35) @Michael Flotron I mean more of how do you select which audio sources from cameras go out the MADI interface and how MADI sources coming back in get pushed into the main mix going out SDI

(56:46) Q: Can you explain more about how MADI routing works on the ATEM?

(57:06) @Nathaniel Belles It's a BNC port that connects to the X32 X-MADI Expansion card (also BNC Connector). It's all handled digitally so you would choose channels within the x32 interface

(57:37) @Nathaniel Belles Like they show up in the mixer like other analog inputs.

(57:58) Q: Do you see Blackmagic coming out with a ATEM Constellation 4K video switcher anytime soon? I love the feature set of the Constellation HD but is just missing 4K...

(1:00:16) It is hard for a one person to keep up with this Chat channel. 135 viewers and Aaron's doing all the work! Don't forget to like and subscribe 👍

(1:00:32) Q - do you think it's a good time to check Liliys setup for her Stream? .. it seems all worked fine the last time

(1:01:04) Q: What is the best setup for 4 camera's for live streaming and the ability to auto switch the 4 inputs based on motion and also have all 4 camera’s recording to disk?

(1:03:10) Q: looking for a solution to receive a RTMP stream and convert it to HDMI. Want to receive a external camera that can send over RTMP

(1:05:48) Youtube control room has ALL KINDS of bugs to be fair

(1:05:50) @Aaron Parecki How do you generate the Time Stamps on your livestream topics? Are you automating that or just doing it manually?

(1:07:44) Q: What's the easiest way to bring a remote guest into Yolocam Pro?

(1:08:27) Q: Trying to set up a VPN with wireguard: Could any Computer on the network control (vnc) any other computer? Now only the one with LAN on the Beryl can control others.

(1:09:29) Q: Andy News about Roland P20hd instant replay with bitfocu companion ?

(1:09:47) Q: I’m sure in one of your live shows you talked about how you set up your pre-show (especially via streamdeck) has it changed at all?

(1:10:56)

(1:11:16) Q, Can you suggest a way of live streaming three motorsport cameras (1 per car) into an ATEM Mini Pro then uplinked to Youtube? Using Mevo cams maybe??

(1:13:38) Since you're not getting an affiliate from the ebay purchase.

(1:13:55) How about using Go Pro for Dave question.

(1:17:55) @Aaron Parecki yes, it was replaced with the NDI version

(1:18:08) The GoPro RTMP streaming has a problem, that it needs internet to start the stream (it contacts the mothership) and it's RTMP is dynamic. The DJI Action 3 is a better choice, fixed bitrate can be set.

(1:18:30) Q, Can you suggest a way of live streaming three motorsport cameras (1 per car) into an ATEM Mini Pro then uplinked to Youtube? Using Mevo cams maybe??

(1:18:35) I think you will need a yolobox per car + cellular

(1:18:58) Cellular and use VDONinja?

(1:19:10) What about using accsoon hdmi transmitters. It says 1000 feet.

(1:20:56) thanks all

(1:21:02) VDO Ninja now has a custom Raspberry Pi image that supports this headless! Haven't tested yet but seems really cool

(1:21:11) On the YoloBox, we just need an API now, so we can remote control it :)

(1:21:29) Run SDI to each car for best quality! (Kidding - don’t do this!)

(1:21:39) I've tested cellular at the Portland Raceway during an event and it's unfortunately not usable. Max 0.5mbps upload because of having an audience. Point to point wireless is best

(1:22:09) Q: If I'm starting a live streaming production company with $3,000 what gear would you buy first

(1:24:41) Q: Aaron can you please quickly tell me how to record on ssd HD on ATEM ISO extreme if i am not doing streaming. just record

(1:25:20) Q - Do you think Blackmagic will bring out a PTZ camera?!

(1:26:11) Q: don’t forget a microphone in those 3000$ ;-)

(1:27:13) @Philip Luckey I imagining a balloon suspended ABOVE the track w/2km fibre to each car. And some kind of cable management to prevent things from crossing one another 👍

(1:27:46) Q: What about the Cannons PTZ vs BGH1?

(1:29:24) Q: one more advantage of you swapping out your cameras, is that all your cams now have SDI out in the camera. And that SDI port is a 3G one, so can only do 1080p anyhow. Perfect for your setup.

(1:29:55) Q: Do you know if there exists any tethering app for Sony cameras (like the one for Panasonic)? Thank you for all your good advice and videos! 🙏🏼

(1:30:05) The hot air balloon could have all the wireless receivers in it… then produce the show from the air?

(1:30:37) If it's a tethered drone does it count? haha

(1:31:01) Q: Will you switch to editing your videos in DaVinci on your iPad?

(1:31:25) I want to do this just because I've never been on a hot air balloon

(1:31:29) I will be your PA

(1:31:35) @anomalily I would pay full price to watch that

(1:31:37) @Eric Likness Full $0 price

(1:31:42) Brings a whole new meaning to cloud streaming lol
