    You can also use your tablet as a screen for your hdmi enabled modern console, Raspberry pi, C64 maxi/mini, or Amiga mini, for example. Most old tablets such as the Lenovo yogas have micro usb ports, so you'll connect it to a dual otg cable (one cable for power, one for data) then connect to the capture device which is accepting the HDMI signal from your console or pi. Many of them Yogas have large battery lives, so it's a great portable solution if you dont have access to a large TV. Youll need to buy the pro version of USB CAMERA to remove advertising or find another free camera app. If you have USB C on your tablet, even better. I used to play RETROPIE from a Pi Zero on a tablet screen via the capture card. Excellent device for sure.

    I have been researching this topic since the last few days. The solutions that pop up are as expensive as getting a field monitor. I have a spare iPad lying around which I can put to good use. This solution you have provided is definitely worth trying. I look forward to connecting my Sony a7ii to my iPad 5. I will comment once again to let you know how it goes.

      @@GiuLauda No, it did not. I have a Sony a7ii and an iPad Pro 11 (2022). I got the Micro HDMI to HDMI Cable + HDMI Capture Card. the HDMI Capture Card has a USB-A cable attached. It also came in with a USB-A to C adapter. Hardware wise it all connected perfectly from the cam to iPad. But I didn't find the same app that you were showing on video to get the live feed from cam. I tried some other app that showed up in the results but it kept showing a blank screen instead of feed from the cam. Any suggestions?

      @@bhosekar1982 Sorry for not replying sooner, I don't really have any apple devices that I could use to try and help. Just using the app store through a browser I actually did find the same app, it was just called "USB Camera".
      In terms of just getting a black screen, I ran into that issue when I tried using a Camlink as the capture card (aka a capture card that requires a USB 3.0 connection) and my adapter seemed to read out as a USB 2.0 connection. Therefore I only got a black screen. But the same problem didn't come up when using the cheap-o capture card that I showed in the video, due to it only using a USB 2.0 connection.
      If this is still relevant to you, you could check those two things. Hope it helps.

    • @villerasku
      @villerasku  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Actually, I recommend you do the recording in the camera, and just use the tablet to monitor yourself. And if you're just monitoring yourself for composition and whatnot, the quality of the feed isn't that big of a deal. That's why the one I use is one of the cheapest capture cards on Amazon. It offers 1080p 30fps max, but it doesn't need USB 3.0 to work, so I can use it with any adapter.

    This works for my Nikon D3100!😊 Do you know if this app will work to connect cell phone camera to a tablet screen? Because my rear camera for cell phone can produce 4k but would be nice to have a front facing screen for selfie type content. If this is possible what cables do I need? Both phone and tablet are usb c. Will I still need some type of capture card/otg for it to work properly? Just a USB C to USB C did not seem to work.

Might be the camera settings but I have not found any setting which could help. In your tutorial you had a lot of connecting cables. Do I need them when I can connect directly usb a to usb a ?

    • @villerasku
      @villerasku  ปีที่แล้ว

      Just to make sure, USB-A is the standard rectangular USB port. USB-C is the small, more oval-like one. If you have a camera with a USB-C port and the camera has a UVC codec, you shouldn't need anything else.
      The reason I have so many cables in my video, is due to not having a USB-C port in my camera, so I have to use the video-out port, which is a Micro-HDMI.

    Is sony really not able to make an android app that can be used as an external monitor & remote control that works reliably? It's incredibly frustrating that even professional cameras costing thousands of dollars still only have the same crappy 2.5 star mobile app from 9 years ago. Companies could hire like 2 people to write new software for them instead theyre using the menu from the first digital camera they made in 1996.
