(12:25) Q: Happy birthdays! 😃 Best way for remote interviews (tried Ecamm and Zoom)?

(12:54) Happy birthday Arron and John and let’s start a fund for Aaron to buy more sequin jackets, so he can wear a different one every Sunday.

(14:23) Zoom bought the company that does ZoomISO and ZoomOSC. Might make remote interviews better.

(16:57) -----------------

(18:48) OK all good. ATEM USB failure.

(19:32) Aaron double ..in Audio ..

(19:45) There is now an echo….

(25:47) Q: The three off you should share a tech highlight for 2021 other than ATEM MINI EXTREME and EXTREME ISO

(31:44) I just really wish there were at least a handful of HDMI. Even in professional workflows there are some instances where HDMI is needed

(34:59) @PhotoJoseph Nice to know you can leave the 2M/E in 4K mode. Leave everything in the native format, let the Hub do the work.

(36:43) @PhotoJoseph would it be easier to just pull everything and redo it all?

(36:55) To move heavy things on a rack, I temporally install rack shelf underneath it ;)

(38:18) I work at a TV station and we have a 128x96 video router

(39:08) Q: I use to Broadcast Studio video and audio routers. How do you deal with routing your audio.

(41:45) I made a mistake coming here. Now I have many many B&H & Amazon tabs open 😅

(44:51) Yes! Work around the limits of unpaid, "free" Zoom accounts.

(45:07) Q. How do you show Multiview to others

(45:25) Thank you for a great year of information and here is to a new year. Happy birthday too.

(50:17) I was late, so maybe you covered it. How do you get the 3 of you in one stream, with audio and video in sync?

(52:53) Q So will PhotoJoseph be about to cause a shortage of SDI-HDMI & HDMI-SDI converters as he installs the 40x40?

(57:01) This show just turned into a tech review 2021

(57:23) @Aaron Parecki when will it be time to open the champagne?

(57:43) Q @Aaron Parecki have you switched to using the Decimator control software instead of the front panel?

(1:01:00) @PhotoJoseph did you get your sdi cabling figured out?

(1:05:58) Always these "Basic" Problems we all have to deal with ..

(1:07:47) Emcee'ing is hard especially on a YouTube stream.

(1:07:54) Thank you guys for all your help, and happy birthday to you Aaron!

(1:09:30) Thanks John. Have a good birthday, or I guess you already have.

(1:22:59) First time I used MixAffect app as a trial and loved it. Will buy it post trial ends.

(1:23:06) Q: Hi Adam! Great application! What’s next with your Application!

(1:24:47) Can you recommend an iPad for mixeffect, is a normal iPad just fine enough?

(1:25:18) Q How to control mix effect with companion?

(1:27:54) Happy birthday! :)

(1:35:59) Q...No Boxers in your colors???

(1:36:08) do you ship to EU as I want stand

(1:37:31) Would you ship the (old) gear to International locations?

(1:38:26) no bargains for me:washhands:

(1:38:27) @Aaron Parecki you need a pair of pants now. And a hat. And sunglasses. And gloves. Completely covered in Aaron Parecki colours. Ooh, can't forget about socks

(1:39:37) CHEERS indeed

(1:39:39) 🥂

(1:48:17) First time Live stream watcher.. been subbed for a few months I think.. Happy Birthday!

(1:48:30) Q: I asked a few questions that may have gotten lost in the spam?

(1:48:48) I still want the new Macbook if only for the ease of having HDMI again

(1:51:22) I have the 16" because I have bad eyesight.

(1:51:27) @Aaron Parecki I LOVE my 14” MBP

(1:51:33) I know 13" MBA is much thinner than 13" MBP. Feels like half the thickness and half the weight.

(1:51:43) My 14” is a week old and I’m super happy 😊

(1:52:00) do all subscribers have to wear such a dazzling jacket? +g*

(1:52:09) @Aaron Parecki you can always get the iPad Pro 12 with the keyboard Stand

(1:52:19) Q: How do you detect a spammer?

(1:52:49) @Aaron Parecki The life battery on the MacBook Air is better that the MBP 14

(1:53:42) Q: Aaron can you walk through your home assistant setup?

(1:58:17) Q: What temperature sensors do you use?

(2:00:54) Q: what zigbee switches do you use?

(2:03:14) Q: When you're not filming, do you still use the studio lights (or accent lights) for general lights, or do you use the normal garage lights?

(2:04:11) @Aaron Parecki I find that my toes make excellent temperature sensors. If my feet feel too cold then it is time to turn on another heater - or put on a thicker pair of socks.

(2:04:22) @Aaron Parecki I had to miss most of this live stream. HAPPY BIRTHDAY AND HAPPY NEW YEAR DEAR AARON!

(2:04:31) will they transmit to grafana using these transmitters

(2:24:10) @aaron. I love this book. Suck a great idea.

(2:24:16) I want one Great idea I forget the edits I have done and forgot to check inprovments

(2:24:19) @Aaron Parecki more content at 1080p mp4 makes perfect sense. Easier to store, easier to upload, easier to export.

(2:29:26) Q: When working at your day job, do you work out of your house or this studio

(2:44:34) @Aaron Parecki Can you put a link for the mage well device

(2:51:38) Q: So the Magewell could replace the AppleTV or ChromeCast.

(2:52:18) Q: Have you looked at MS Trams, can output to NDI, active speaker and other guests.

(2:52:38) So it shows the feed wireless?

(2:53:10) You know you are too old when you say iPod as a source of video 😀 #metoo 😢

(2:55:01) iPod touch is STILL a thing.

(2:55:03) And iPod touch doesn't cost $1200

(2:55:28) and it runs mix effect..

(2:55:39) I must say I have tried a few times to send funding to you but as iam in Portugal this month but live in UK it stops me. I will get money to you someway. you are doing an A1 job

(2:56:20) Q: how did you feel the blackmagic repair and warranty service was for the broken screen?

(2:57:03) Looks like I got a lot to catch up on in the strea! Congrats on a great year and thanks for your support along the way!

(2:57:13) Gotta be better than restream or ecamms built in guest features.

(3:01:42) Q...Never checked out ecamm but would it work with yolo or am i crazy?

(3:02:08) take care of your hands, you can throw away your orange juice.

(3:02:34) Oooooh, merch store!!! 🎉 🎊 🤑

(3:03:53) Q: Do you know some form to convert VLC to HDMI? For example convert the USB C VLC out from the Atem to HDMI.

(3:05:11) @Aaron Parecki EY. ala. Be warned: iI you use vMix Caller do not give out the URL it generates to any other guest, because it will kick off anyone using it and bring in the new person without warning

(3:05:26) Q: Newtek NDI now has NDI RemoteNEW, Securely connect with multiple remote contributors to receive their video and audio over the internet by simply sharing a link.

(3:05:42) You can setup VLC to have clear output on secondary monitor and control it on another, but yea use OBS 😀

(3:05:53) Q - sorry Aaron. Did you answer my quick question about the Roland V-02HD? I can skip back if you did 😀👍🏼

(3:06:02) Q - looking for a tiny switcher for 2 cams on the move (my Atem is good for bigger productions). Anything to compete with the Roland V-02HD? Tripod mount & footswitch would be perfect additions.

(3:08:57) Q how are you selling your gear is it a website

(3:14:51) Great show again and many helpful answers. Thanks and happy birthday… i also want to see that jacket in the store :)

(3:15:09) Ndi remote basically takes a remote ndi network and merges/bridges it with your local ndi network.which is awesome but opens up all ndi feeds to both sides of the network unless you change settings

(3:15:22) Out of jokes...someone can tell me how they handled the noise of the mic input. It's a nightmare for me. I have the A Mini pro and the A mini Pro ISO.

(3:16:10) @ Aaron Parecki What is you suggested setup using yolobox pro bringing in a guest or two on a live stream?

(3:18:16) do you ever sleep it takes me weeks to work out Amazon

(3:18:44) @Aaron Parecki you could start a WHOLE channel on small-scale ecommerce. Lots of details to consider there.

(3:19:10) What is your favorite? NDI or SRT ?

(3:22:13) Line works great, run your mic through a digital recorder like Zoom H6

(3:22:30) QUESTION: Are you familiar with “New Blue VividCast ?” Is it compatible with Blackmagic ATEM systems?

(3:23:41) @Aaron Parecki the NDI fee is based on the MSRP of the device it's installed on. IF we're talking about software based solutions NDI is free instead. Happy birthday btw!

(3:24:11) NewTek NDI license fee is essentially a "tax" to any manufacturer for the privilege of including it as a feature, whether it is used or not.

(3:24:27) you are a lite wait. one bottle and you know you have been streaming nearly ³ hours

(3:24:37) @Aaron Parecki From your experience which switcher has least lag when using green screen?

(3:26:16) Q:. I have the ATEM Mini Pro switcher.: Is there a dual A/B switch available to plug both the SSD and computer in and run the output to ATEM to the USB C to conveniently switch between destinations?

(3:27:43) Q: when having multiview output on a atem mini (pro/pro iso), can the embedded audio be selected or is it set to 'program out'?

(3:28:16) What FTP server do you recommend for of-loading your recordings?

(3:28:53) Ndi before version 5 was focused on internal network video feeds

(3:29:12) @aaron parecki I see you are testing this in an upcoming stream. Does the rgb Tao work with Mevo Cameras?

(3:29:32) Q: when will you be doing a deep dive of the DJI mini 2

(3:31:00) Q: When you use OBS to composite your graphics, do you find that OBS sometimes skips frames from browser sources? I see this with countdown clocks from H2R Graphics.

(3:31:13) Q: When you use OBS to composite your graphics, do you find that OBS sometimes skips frames from browser sources? I see this with countdown clocks from H2R Graphics.

(3:31:42) Q: When you use OBS to composite your graphics, do you find that OBS sometimes skips frames from browser sources? I see this with countdown clocks from H2R Graphics.

(3:32:24) Q....My hyperdeck studio hd plus comes next week. My understanding can have multiple graphic files loaded on sd and choose which to play while live?

(3:36:40) Q: Is the snow animation a Chroma or is it a Luma key?

(3:37:48) Q: Do you think it will ever be possible to playback files with different video formats from the same storage device using the HyperDeck?

(3:39:04) Q: You use lighting with a fan (if I'm right), I don't hear anything though, what's your secret 🙂

(3:44:11) On cam mic, I hear the room tone "hiss", air flowing, fans and etc. More "presence" with the Samson, more forward.

(3:44:24) Q: Any prototype/used ATEM Mini stands for sale on your website?

(3:44:40) On cam mic, I hear the room tone "hiss", air flowing, fans and etc. More "presence" with the Samson, more forward.

(3:44:41) Yes, I hear the difference

(3:45:01) Q: How do you incorporate audio in the live switcher when doing a wedding stream? I had my first a month ago and used an audio mixer with a xLR convert cable to 3,5mm jack.. How would you do it?

(3:45:52) @Aaron Parecki so when are the "It's only going to be a short one today" shirts?

(3:46:31) Q...what sunglasses do you recommend for those lights in front of you?

(3:46:43) Did anyone else just experience streaming issues?

(3:46:51) @Aaron Parecki Thank you for OAuth happy hours!

(3:47:33) Q: What is your set up for showing selected comments from YouTube? Are you streaming using OBS to pull it off or are you able to do it through the ATEM using some trickery?

(3:48:51) Q: What is your set up for showing selected comments from YouTube? Are you streaming using OBS to pull it off or are you able to do it through the ATEM using some trickery?

(3:49:57) Q: are you only process the mic in atem-audio? Nothing in the audio mixer except amplify mic to line?

(3:50:58) Q: Reminder H2RG also can do YouTube comments

(3:51:32) If you need help figuring out the mr18 let me know. I use those and x32 movers all the time for my day job

(3:52:09) Q: I am building case for Extreme and while i was looking for ideas, i came across your "Solder with me!" video . Is there part 2 of that build or did you just switch to your stands?

(3:52:54) Re your frame rate drops from browser source, have you tried setting the frame rate to 60fps rather than letting it decide itself? It seems to go a bit smoother for me sometimes

(3:53:11) John Barker's Discord, definitely a great place to congregate, talk, and ask questions. Lots of full-time Pro event folks are there.

(3:53:25) please go and have a beer or bottle of champagne 🥂 as I need to sleep but frightened of missing something.

(3:53:44) @Aaron Parecki Can you link the egg crate diffuser for the godox

(3:55:19) Sweet. Thanks for all the help everybody -- I'm a commercial producer with a client that wants to do some live event stuff so I'm trying to negotiate this new thing

(3:55:27) Happy Birthday Aaron!

(3:55:31) Happy Birthday!

(3:55:33) Happy Birthday Aaron. In your streaming workflow are you using any NDI sources?
