March 17, 2024

Questions

(5:43) Q - ?? an hour earlier than usual .. is it Daylight saving time in the US right now ??

(6:25) I'd still pinch you for not actually wearing green 🤣😂🤣

(6:38) Oh wow I didn't even remember haha good thing I'm already wearing green!

(6:42) Soon the stream will be at 5am PST. lol

(7:14) I was supposed to stream the Shamrock run today but that plan got cancelled 😭

(7:25) I wish we would also adopt 24 hour time notation in the US as well

(8:10) Too bad you won't be in Australia. In person collab with Ryan would have been epic

(8:42) Let's see how well this chrome keys hahaha

(10:04) what do you mean thats fantastic! haha

(10:07) Do we really need another switcher?

(12:58) It's sort of like saying do we need another camera. Not really, but kinda...yeah? lol

(13:05) What is the price on this one?

(16:22) 799.00 at b and h?

(16:24) price will be 799

(19:24) we can tell it's choppy

(23:40) Q: Is the multiview reassignable?

(25:06) Q: i notice a delay between key press and action to the key.

(41:05) I think the NEWS logo file its somehow not loadable

(41:35) Maybe it will not work with the split screen

(48:26) tips：use the zoom toggle and joystick for faster operation

(50:54) back to homepage

(52:50) Long press on one of the views

(55:26) Aaron is truely deep in try it out ..

(56:19) yes, there is web interface

(56:26) Moving from Atem to Yolo to 18 other switchers is hard

(58:58) Can you open your firewall and let @RGBlink (Official Channel) do it for you? 😊

(1:04:12) I'm sure folks will make a logo on Fiverr

(1:05:11) Note:files you use on the web interface are not stored on the switchers so you can't reuse them while disconnected(or at leats it looks like it)

(1:06:29) Q: In the web interface can you switch by clicking the multview cells?

(1:11:13) Q see my earlier comment about the views

(1:11:24) Maybe you didn't save a static view, but initiated one, and everything you changed stays with that view as it was red the whole time.

(1:12:00) Is the OBSBOT on the network (i.e. cable plugged in)

(1:15:20) Yes using the Zoom and Joystick for the layout positioning is so much better... I did that for ATEM supersources in Companion as well as using MixEffect

(1:16:11) VIEWS

(1:18:47) Having user defined scenes on buttons is a very good idea... I like it

(1:21:23) So when trying to put CAM1 in PVW and it's stretched, is it under some kind of mix effect sitting on top (cuz blue), not just the camera feed (i think should be green)?

(1:22:30) Q: Are the inputs on this switcher auto-converted (i.e. does it have scalers on the inputs?)

(1:25:47) Wow... bring in that 4K with a 1 to 1 pixel dump means you could so some nifty virtual camera type stuff

(1:25:58) you kinda need to reset the scaler

(1:26:43) exactly

(1:26:46) Q follow-up: If you reset the crop/stretch to get normal cam back, will selecting view 2 put the crop settings back?

(1:29:53) Q I think I get it. It did all the scaling on the input instead of a copy of it in a mix effect like an ATEM would?

(1:30:30) The way the scalers work on this device is neat... although not as automatic

(1:30:50) Q are you streaming with yolobox?

(1:31:01) @Aaron Parecki Q: Can you load video clips into the RGBLink for playback?

(1:34:47) The low frame rate is really bad. Odd that they couldn't figure out a better solution

(1:35:38) All the inputs on this switcher have its dedicated scaler for each, so even 4K input can scale to the format it defined.

(1:35:50) Q - so you can use a 4K and set different parts of it on View "presets" ? .. looks like a neat option for a discussion of 2 or 3 people

(1:37:18) Q grab 2 bulbs on your right for 1 and the single bulb on your left for 2

(1:39:26) Aaron's forehead @1280x720P

(1:41:24) That's pretty awesome.

(1:49:02) Is the sixth input a line level input?

(1:50:13) Q just a guess, one of the line inputs could be a TRS mic input if you're not sending stereo from a mixer.

(1:50:33) the second channel is webcam audio

(1:52:12) Spotify = Content ID notices 🥴

(1:53:10) @RGBlink (Official Channel) First time seeing your product. Do you have or plan to have a similar device with more inputs?

(1:53:14) we are focusing on mini-edge and mini-mx which are 5-channel switcher. and you can definitely expect new RGBlink switcher with more inputs

(1:53:21) RGBlink M2 supports up to 9 inputs, and M3 supports up to 14 inputs. M series is desktop also, but much bigger than mini series. For mini series, more input channels will release.

(1:53:40) I imagine rgblink taking notes the whole stream... "What? Why did he click that in this situation? Nooo" - lots of room for more intuitive UI I think 🙂

(1:53:51) ya, we are making note, good to hear from you

(1:53:54) @Sven Lakemeier The ATEM confused me when I first started, now it's second nature. It looks loke after a while once you know where to go, it gets easier.

(1:54:39) the link for amazon doesnt have a price

(1:55:00) Good morning! What’s the topic for today?

(1:56:49) how do you feel about it. would you give it a rating out a of 5 plz

(1:59:19) Ok rate it on does it do the features on the box work or not work :)

(2:00:02) Great demo

(2:00:04) Will be watching over

(2:00:13) Totally. When folks ask me about what gear's best, I almost always say "it depends" b/c it's usually about your situation, not absolute best/worst

(2:01:06) Buttons make more sense than the ATEM buttons!

(2:01:14) Thank you Aaron for the great demo, excellent as always!

(2:01:26) Agree this was a killa' demo. Figure it out, do it LIVE ‼

(2:02:33) End with the cats on the other desk

(2:02:46) Although missed half of it due to daylight savings time, but always a pleasure.

(2:04:04) thanks you Aaron and everyone watching

(2:04:16) Q - maybe a Color reset button?

(2:04:29) And Happy St. Patricks dAy!
