Nice video. I worked as a professional streaming engineer and I really like the capture card. Normally I work with BM ultra or magewell cards. But this little usb card is nice to have as a backup solution. I like that this streaming app supports SRT. NDI would be a killer feature
That portable switcher concept using an android tablet for streaming is kind of a game changer. Also, I just came across your channel and it's pretty dope!
Nicely presented and informative. Make sure your Camera's frame rates match that of the capture card, usually 30fps for that UVC device, otherwise your video gets very choppy with dropped frames. Also be mindful that those cards fail very easily, it's not a case of if but when, I bought a bunch of them and so far 3 have died within a matter of weeks. Lots of videos on TH-cam about them so be aware. build quality varies and these have been pouring out of china. If your serious about streaming I would look at a more robust solution, as a hobby and a bit of fun they are ok. I definately wouldn't use or consider them for commercial work.
Hey NEON! I’ve been looking for a vid like this for months, thank u so much! Question , were u still able to record on ur actual camera during live streaming to ur phone? Thanks
Dude, thank you so much for this video. You made my life much easier today getting ready for a small commercial job for a friend next week. Subbed, and many thanks 🥰
Interesting. I wonder what the cheapest “professional” quality livestream you could create using this concept would be. Like the cheapest dslr or mirrorless, mic, phone, SIM card. I like the idea of this. Thanks for sharing.
Great content 👍 I've been looking for this this video for ages as I want to do live streaming out and about using my mobile provider and not WiFi this has opened up a lot more options for me than just relying on my mobile phone as it's not the best when it comes to video So thank you 🙏 from Thailand
Hi, I found your video ("How to use your phone as a HDMI Video Monitor" video) searching info about CameraFi. I like your setup, probably I'll do a similar one for my streamings about birds and other wild animals, using my nikon camera and my mobile phone. Congratulations and thank you!
Worked , but CameraFi app closes itself after 1.5 hours of streaming. Sometimes it does let you connect the stream again but sometimes you have to start a new stream ( TH-cam)
The downside of expensive 5G router + codec + capture card + camera + battery is that you need to plug 2 huge battery for the router and camera. yours setup is far better
Hi Neon, thanks for this tutorial. When I connect my camera to my phone it doesn't give me the option to select the USB rather its taking the video from the cameras phone. Any idea how to go about that?
Hi there With the equipment and directions you recommended do you think it is possible for me to live stream from my Nikon D500 in the countryside using my Samsung galaxy S9 4G I hope to stream wildlife photography Many thanks and thanks for the video By the way I was comparing this to the Yolo product at around £800 Pretty much does the same but significantly cheaper
Hello brother this is the video i am looking for i love you video bit i have only one problem with my self because i am using iPhone. Can you please let me you which app will work for iPhone because this app you explained only shows in google play store. App Store no have this app. Kind Regards
Hi there, I cannot livestream using CameraFi Live application with Huawei p30 pro mobile and Sony a6400 camera. There is no OTG storage in Hawei phone. Thats why, I can't do any livestreaming at all. Kindly hlep me for that.
Hi! awesome video. I didn't find the part about the audio. Does the audio come from the camera when you live stream, or from the phone itself? If that's the case, can I mount a shotgun external microphone? thanks a million!
Hi, I have a samsung S9 (android 10), i've downloaded the correct apk provided in the video description, i have an elgato camlink 4k and a sony a7iii. When i connect the camera using an otg hub to my phone and open cameraFi, it displays some pop up messages to allow access to usb camera. i click ok on all of them, but the video feed doesnt come through, and i don't understand why. Any help is much appreciated!
Does the sound go in stereo on this HDMI capture card? I read somewhere earlier that it was mono.. I'm looking at purchasing the ATEM MINI to do this exact mobile android streaming but I do music production content and STEREO is high up on the list of requirements for me. Thank You for the video!!
@@LiftedNoise Ok so just been playing around with this. The ATEM takes stereo inputs in mic inputs & via HDMI but camerafi app seems to be downmixing to mono. Might be best using a laptop and hotspot if you need 4G
@@NEONAIRSHIP thank You 🙏 for the response! I do want to avoid a computer altogether. You are certain the camerafi app is responsible for the mono signal and not the hdmi capture card?
So just found this , and I've been doing this for years had a few variations but I did add to this same setup instead of the otg which I use to use , I sine started using a USB c hub to phone , it has a speedcharge port for the hub then u can get a Anker power block and double or tripple ur time just be sure to keep batteries for the cam itself but the phone will have power for a long time
See o I have a brand new 2023 android device. Camera fi tells me that my device won’t broadcast in either of the three option. 480, 720, 1080. Ugh. Help
Thanks for this video! Question has anyone else had an issue where the video feed flickers a lot? I'm using a Sony a 7 rii and depending on the quality i set on my android phone the video feed flickers a lot or doesnt even show on the higher quality settings. I'll try with another android phone to see if that is the problem.
I tried this with my gh5 and Samsung A32 and get unusable choppy video, capture card works fine plugged into the pc so its either the little grey usb convertor or the phone
I have the same setup but I can't get audio from the camera? I'm trying to live stream on Facebook but I can't get a audio signal. I switch to USB audio from the camera but no sound. I have a external microphone also which won't work either. Any ideas what this could be? Thanks 😊
It'll be a setting somewhere I think, gotta make sure the camera is outputting audio over hdmi and the phone is set to USB audio. Otherwise just try unplugging and replugging the adapters, I had it once with my gopro and I think it was just a loose adapter
I use the setup you have in the video but there is one problem. While recording by Android phone (I don't know for iPhone) - you can't charge the phone battery, so you are limited to 2 hours of recording ....
But don't the capture cards die quickly.. I'm considering to start using this set up but I have been told that capture cards die out of the blue, that it's not suitable for commercial purposes

currently making a full head helmet using a gear vr and a cheap ebay camera so this really helped me out thanks!
I have no idea what you're making but it sounds cool!
Great work! You first video about this setup helped me a lot. Thanks (:
No propaganda

One of the best video on youtube which is very usefull and very cheap 👌🏼. Thanks a lot mate. You deserve much more likes
What is your experience with:
1. Overheating?
2. Max length of stream?
3. Data usage per min?
This is really great idea, and those capture cards are crazy cheap. I'm going to have to try this out when I get back in the office next week!
What about in iOS?
wow this video is great! did you ever go back and get the gopro working with this setup??
Add an wireless lavalier to the mix and you have a really good setup

Try using the usb camera app with the livestreaming rig if you're inclined to go that way...
Hi, what to use for iphone please ?
Worked , but CameraFi app closes itself after 1.5 hours of streaming. Sometimes it does let you connect the stream again but sometimes you have to start a new stream ( TH-cam)
A better capture card will have less latency? if yes can you recommend one for me?
CameraFi is good but too expensive for mobile streaming especially when you have to spend more money on internet services.
great video bro . i have a question thought , i am using iphone so there is any way to do it in ios ?
Hey bro this is a great video. It actually worked. Thank you so much will be trying to find a way to support you direct ty
I think it's hilarious how a live streaming app does not have one single tutorial (video) on their entire site.
Thank for the tutorial and suggestion. I would try it someday
The downside of expensive 5G router + codec + capture card + camera + battery is that you need to plug 2 huge battery for the router and camera. yours setup is far better
For remote directing, can a 4K camera record to an onboard storage medium at 4K whilst streaming at 1080p? The streaming would be via EVMux.
Hi Neon, thanks for this tutorial. When I connect my camera to my phone it doesn't give me the option to select the USB rather its taking the video from the cameras phone. Any idea how to go about that?
I cannot get the setting to hook up to the USB camera. Do you have any suggestions?
Hi there
With the equipment and directions you recommended do you think it is possible for me to live stream from my Nikon D500 in the countryside using my Samsung galaxy S9 4G
I hope to stream wildlife photography
Many thanks and thanks for the video
By the way I was comparing this to the Yolo product at around £800
Pretty much does the same but significantly cheaper
GoPro Hero 7, 8, 9 and 10 have built in option to live stream
Yea but this is amazing for people with nice dlsrs or mirrorless cameras that don't have this built in feature.
Hello brother this is the video i am looking for i love you video bit i have only one problem with my self because i am using iPhone. Can you please let me you which app will work for iPhone because this app you explained only shows in google play store. App Store no have this app.

Very nice video simple explanation.Thanks sir.I will try using this.
Does the quailt actuallly look better than streaming directlyl from a cell phone? Does not look like it.
Will this set up work on a iPhone or an iPad?
cool video but can you please help me with understanding the getting the url and the code key please dont know where to get it
Hi, if we has n't the computer, can we use the dslr with iphone for facebook live outdoor ?
Can you choose to use your phone as a mic instead of the camera?
It's been a while since I've used this but I believe so yeah
There's no 4k option? You're using a DLSR to record. Or is your hdmi card too old?
That HDMI card is 1080p, you could use a camlink 4k, but am not sure if it will transfer to the phone...
Does the Camerafi live have OBS studio and would I be able input an overlay in it like I can when using the OBS on my laptop?
Bjr comment vous allez
J'ai fait vous l'avez dit mais j'ai pas de son sur mon direct

Does it work for tiktok Livestream
Hi! awesome video. I didn't find the part about the audio. Does the audio come from the camera when you live stream, or from the phone itself? If that's the case, can I mount a shotgun external microphone? thanks a million!
You can choose in the app, so whichever way works for you. I use a shotgun on the camera myself :)
@@NEONAIRSHIP thanks!
another question would this work with iphone
Thanks, mate mine is the audio video is OK but the problem is my audio no sound can you advice.
It might be a setting that you need to change in your camera
Can you take photos, like photography photos from the DSLR while doing the livestreaming?? This is awesome btw.
Depends on the camera i guess, you should be able to
Hello… is there an opt for iPhone?
Thanks! Great tutorial. Can you turn the camera and stream vertical video with that setup? I.e. for Instagram live?

This is awesome. Is there any reason you couldn't send to a phone/tablet and stream via Zoom or similar? Thanks!
Thanks! Camerafi won't send to zoom but there might be some clever workaround. With a laptop it's super easy
@@NEONAIRSHIP Ok great. Was hoping to send to an ipad but could do to a laptop instead

Hey dude!!! I have a camcorder without a microphone input. Can I plug a microphone on my cellphone an use it when I'm on air with camerafi???
Yes i think so!
Is it also possible to connect a microphone to that set-up?
Yes i believe you can connect an external microphone to your camera and it should work
That's it! Tks much bro
Link to that video?
What is OTG?
