Questions

(4:28) Q: Nice cat sweater

(5:47) Camera didnt have machine control or something?

(6:30) Q: So I haven't got my Go Stream Duet out of the box how to bring in audio from RCP2 (can I do it via USB)

(7:14) Q what Hyperdeck codec preset are you using for these? Haha

(8:56) Q: Mentioning legacy decks brings up a pertinent topic. What do you think about LG ceasing BlueRay player production? What do you think you’ll do to build out and maintain legacy BlueRay capabilities?

(10:31) Q: Gostream Duet how about the USB to Computer for Livestream eg. Youtube--Or do you need to plug in ethernet direct?

(11:09) Q: can you control ptz with the blackmagic 4k8 joystick

(11:52) I would think hard drives are almost cheaper than burnable blue ray now

(12:38) Q: I’m thinking of getting a thunderbolt LTOtape deck someday for legacy storage. More reliable long term than discs.

(13:09) My Legion T-730 that has a i9 and 2080 came with a DVD-RW and I swapped it out with a 9mm slim Blu-ray writer/reader and it has performed perfectly

(13:20) Q: Is it safe to upgrade to the latest versions of Atem Software? Mac and PC, for Constellation 2ME HD and Extremes. Any known issues at this time?

(14:48) I have a lot of old files encoded as flv (flash video) and its a pain to use them

(15:14) Q: over the last 4/5 weeks we have been having problem with live streaming from the church useing the ATEM mini pro. Are other people haveing the some problem. we are in the uk.

(15:58) No digital art today!

(16:04) ATEM software 9.6.2 has added Visca over IP support to all the Constellations. Don't know if the TV Studio 4K8 has it.

(17:07) I have been using an ATEM extreme in the UK with no problems.

(17:55) Do it live. We love it when things go wrong so we can see you fix.

(17:58) @Aaron Parecki "What can go wrong...LOL"

(19:39) Q:Here we go. The "trial by fire" stream🤣🤣

(24:33) Q I did have an issue this morning. streaming to FB. Cache filled up. Local network and internet connection were fine and at full speed.

(24:43) I had a lot of streaming issues with ATEMs in the past, due to changing client networks. I don´t use ATEMs at all for streaming now. Too unreliable.

(25:19) Q: all you need is a power outage now Aaron 🤣

(26:29) I pair ATEM/Web Presenters with the quality of the link. 🍷

(28:07) 3...2...1...

(28:49) Bit by one of those ATEM updates that has nothing for your switcher 🤣

(28:54) All the excitement for nothing ;)

(32:15) Womp womp hahaha

(32:28) I’ve never tried PTZ controls in the ATEM UI. Only know it to be on the panels.

(32:44) try thhe dial on the bottom for pan

(33:27) I only used my Sony PTZ Controller and Hardware is far better than software controll

(33:53) Q: Is there an image quality difference between box cameras and their camera body equivalents?

(34:38) Q- How can I control a sound from Atem television studio HD8 iso directly on the unit instead of controlling it from the software

(35:42) We need more RCV content lol. I still can’t figure out how to get a green graphic over my video, and it sit behind it in layers. Like OBS

(36:24) Yes!

(41:17) So I’d put green where my camera goes and then key it out but my camera never fits and it’s a bit weird.

(47:08) Thank youuu!

(47:13) I love this map overlay on the live video. It's like the movie Minority Report.

(47:22) Q: curious why is your head cut off on Scene B thumb in MV when camera shot shows your full head? Settings or does RCV do something funky with thumbs?

(49:12) I don’t think I was making it a scene thank you!!!

(49:42) "karaoke mode" lol

(58:48) Q: Link to the app ?

(59:11) Eric: Who would've guessed an iPad that costs how much more than this other solution has more power?

(1:00:16) I wonder what kind of chaos you can create with the HDMI out and all your livestreaming stuff? lol

(1:02:29) Q- what is the map on the Monitor representative of, those on this Livestream? Thanks in advance.

(1:02:42) Until the YouTube robots decide you don't own it

(1:02:50) How do I get my screen back into my rodecaster video? So basic but I use my iPad because I can’t figure out it lol

(1:05:01) Can you do the map for one state or just one country?

(1:05:34) I must have a crappy cable because it never finds it when I plug it in

(1:05:46) @Aaron Parecki Japan is serious about Karaoke they have some serious systems

(1:11:27) Great Question, Rode Caster Video vs. BMD ISO extreme

(1:11:33) How about using Yolobox Ultra?

(1:15:06) there is also a companion module for it in Companion 3.5

(1:33:09) Q:90 minutes check

(1:33:15) You could do some elaborate trigger logic...but it would be a pain

(1:33:20) wonder if you could use a generic osc connection and create the mute command

(1:33:29) Not sure I'll be here next week so Thanks for all your HELP thought out the year! Merry Christmas & Happy New Year

(1:33:50) Q Is there a feedback for fader levels?

(1:37:08) interesting that the video thumbnail didn't update while it was playing

(1:37:55) It's like a VU meter

(1:38:03) Surprised your Rode mic doesn't have your sticker on it

(1:38:10) Q: Could you build a companion based countdown that was programmable so you would just play the video as background and audio

(1:39:51) Q In that list of variable you can copy from, move the volume on the RCV and see what value changes.

(1:43:16) Hi @aaronparecki!!! Long time no see

(1:43:28) Beta software

(1:43:33) If you have Ecamm, you can create an adjustable countdown. However, it will jump to new value after you change it vs. dragging a time slider. Maybe also doable in OBS?

(1:45:57) Q: Is there anyway to take the livestream capability of the GH5II, S5II, GH7 that normally stream using the Lumix Sync app, either on the app or another streaming interface?

(1:48:06) 15 minutes to eat before Curtis Judds

(1:48:35) @Aaron Parecki An OMD showcase with the RCV and Companion would be a good video as well.
