I just found one of these at a thrift store. It is like the one in this video. The blackmagic site only shows newer models. Trying to find a pdf manual for this thing.,
Can you use this with the original BMPCC Pocket Cameras (1080 version)? Knowing they're micro HDMI outputs, could you essentially use the Micro HDMI to HDMI adapter and use it that way?
Can i use this web presenter if i want to stream to youtube and facebook at the same time? or do i need 2 devices? if thats the case how to i hook up my 2 cameras to 2 devices?
Nice video, question if you have both cameras connected like you did, can't you simply use anyone of those cameras as your "webcam"? I have a project coming up where I will use 1 or 2 cameras GoPro 5's and use the house sound system to stream audio for a live webcast using this web presenter of which I don't have yet. Do I still need a webcam or will both of these gopro's be sufficient to act as the webcam?
Amigo, boa noite. Estou tendo problemas com black. Uso uma câmera na entrada hdmi e outra no sdi, através do conversor original da black magic, e uso o obs, quando troco de cena da um corte no áudio de 1 segundo, toda vez corta 1 segundo no áudio, a imagem troca normal, mas o audio corta. Pode me ajudar?
Hi, what about using mic arrays, and dedicated audiomixers. Do they have to plug in analog on the back of the unit? My use will be live concert streaming of small ensembles I use a Zoom H6 and two condenser mics, and a small mixer to get a nice room sound. How would a Zoom H6 work within this context.
Instead of a second camera, would it be possible to send one's own desktop hdmi out with let's say the NLE whole screen timeline (or anything on the screen) as output #2 ? I was imagining a scenario where I were editing remotely from a client and that client could see via Zoom for example my edit timeline as I edited ...and then back to "facetime" via #1 (camera).
It'll be nice if the device was compatible with simple small webcam. What's the point of making a streaming device that won't work with an Elgato facecam? 😒
Great presentation. I have a question. WHen I started in Television in the mid '80's 1987 to be specific, everything was hardware except for our quantum pain box. Grass Valley switches and so on. The SONY M3 was one of the, if not the first CCD camers. I am now doing some work for a deaf school and I will have 4 inputs. PC/Mac, Cam 1, Cam 2 Cam 3. 1 camera is pointing at the interpreter, one is manned and points at whatever the tallent is holding one is for wide shot 92 person etc) and the 4th is for close-up of whom ever is talking. WIll I need the ATEM vesion of the blackmagic design or the one you showed. I'm thinking the ATEM. Please advise and if known, any pricinng info. Thanks. Tim Curtin,
The Web Presenter can use the sound from the source video inputs and additionally run a basic mix using the additional analog audio inputs. If you want the most control for your sound in a simple 2 camera video switching setup, it would be best to use a separate audio mixer and disable the audio on the video cameras.
Thanks for the great review. Is it possible to do the same for the ATEM TV studio HD with external recording and connecting a computer to throw some graphics in to the production video? TIA
I do this all the time. Check out the Fashion Photography with the Fuji GFX video. I just plug a laptop or iPad into the ATEM and all is well. Keep in mind that laptops and iPads are 60fps only - so you need to run your production and cameras at 60fps to make this work. Otherwise, fire up a Teranex AV and convert the frame rate before going into the ATEM. As for recording, the Blackmagic Hyperdeck is what we use. th-cam.com/video/ed8BbhWJ6g8/w-d-xo.html Did you see the ATEM video I just put up? th-cam.com/video/DOfo9UA6MZA/w-d-xo.html
This two years late, but yes. Use the SDI or HDMI loop out ports. As a plus, these loop outs send the full original resolution. Meaning, the web presenter will only stream at 720, but can record (simultaneously through the loop out ports) in full 4K.
@@patrickdewhurst3378 Hmm looks very nice BUT!... Would it not be more logical to use an Atem Mini these days? 4 inputs is much more flexible and you could also use a USB convertor to have the Atem Mini portable. One other consideration is that the Atem Mini auto-scales ALL inputs - so no need to adjust all inputs
@@ifn_media In my opinion, you are 100% on point. Unless you are running high end professional grade cameras that have SDI support, the mini is more than enough. Preferable even. Shoot, just get the SDI/HDMI converter and you're golden. I returned the Web Presenter very quickly because it just seemed very... not what I wanted. I really am liking the Atem Mini, or even the larger ones if the budget allows lol.
so with this blackmagic webpresenter can I plug in a console and or PC with HDMI and a camera with the SDI and manage a stream as such ? and would it record both inputs at the same time or would that be software specific thanks in advance
The Web Presenter can take the output of PC with HDMI and switch that with a video camera (as long as both are running at the same resolution and frame rate - in this case you would most likely be running 1080p60 for both) and feed that as a web camera USB input to a second computer running the streaming application.
Does HD ATEM Television Studio HD Live Production Switcher works the same way as the Web presenter? I mean sources with ATEM output as well as webcams? Thanks
The ATEM switches video signals like the Web Presenter, but has many more options. However, if you want to stream the output of the ATEM you would just connect it to the input of a Web Presenter. Web Cameras, as they are USB devices are not designed to plug into the inputs of the ATEM. However a computer with HDMI output can be used as an input to the ATEM, and therefore a Web Camera connected to this computer could be then used as a source for the ATEM. Keep in mind resolution and frame rate for all inputs need to be matched in order for the ATEM to function correctly.
Hi, can I take an audio from the audio mixer and plug it in the web presenter to give me a better audio recording for live stream so, in the back of the web presenter is a stereo in and line/ mic in . can i use one of these to the get a good quality audio from an audio mixer? because i heard they don't work !!
Thanks very much for your kind comment Phakwan, Much appreciated. Warm regards, Peter Michael Managing Director - michaels e: petermichael@michaels.com.au
Are you able to exactly state your system setup? When you say flipped do you mean upside down or left to right? The flipped image is showing on the screen of the Web Presenter or on the Computer you processing the Stream?
I have all my camera's ran to the black magic switcher, my monitors are plugged into the switcher HDMI multiview output, and the switcher is ran to the web presenter via sdi cable
The only thing I can think of is the Mac's Web Cam sub-system is flipping it because the Photo Booth App has previously grabbed the stream. That App is designed to show the Web Cam input flipped. FaceTime most likely does the same thing. Have you tested with QuickTime to see what it shows from the Web Cam feed?
Thanks for the nice clear video. This is almost the setup I bought a few weeks ago, but ended up with an ATEM switcher and a separate streaming box (Epiphan X2). Just a suggestion. A mention of how to include audio mixer XLR input, or explanation of how the camera audio is handled would make it a perfect video.
Thanks for your positive feedback Matt. We appreciate it. John has a lot of expertise in this area so please don't hesitate to ask him his thoughts about any related products or issues. Best regards, Peter Michael
Matt, we are planning more videos in this series. Have had a break in production as we put all of our broadcast gear into a new Mobile Production Unit (MPU) to enable shooting in a time effective fashion at remote locations. We just fired it up for our first Facebook Live Broadcast this week. Find it here: facebook.com/michaelscamera/videos/10155746797079784/ You will see some over the shoulders shots of the MPU early on in the video. This same video will be posted to TH-cam in a few days. As for the Audio Sub-system on the Web Presenter - it is both powerful and simple and considering the price there is a lot to this little box. Audio can follow video (over the HDMI/SDI inputs) and additionally be mixed (or not) with the Mic/Line inputs. There are no level controls so you have to deal with that separately at the source. In a future video we will show exactly how this is setup from the Web Presenter's menu system. We will also be doing a simple video showing how to use the ATEM Television Studio HD in a simple configuration as it has recently been added to the michaels hire department.
Thank you for your support. I try to do these live without any edits (or multiple takes) so that what you see me do is exactly what anyone else can do in just a few minutes to setup one of these systems.
Hi! Great video - I’m inspired to ask for advice. I purchased and set up my new Web Presenter today. I set up a single HDMI camera input, and all my audio running through a mixing desk and into the Web Presenter via the XLR input. I set all the audio mixer levels to OFF, apart from the XLR In. The picture is clear, the audio levels on the smart panel look healthy and active, but the audio coming out of the device is horrible static squelch! I’m very confused. When I tried to Facebook Live with it, the audio was mute. Any idea what I’m doing wrong? I called Blackmagic but the guy in customer support didn’t even pause from eating his sandwich while talking to me (gross), and was totally dismissive of my issue: “turn on your analog, just turn on your analog” he kept repeating, and eating, and making gross lip smacking sounds. Eeeew. Hope you can help. Thanks.
hi, thanks for your time....question.: Can you record with blackmagic express? or other? and if you record ...it is possible to stream at the same time? or you will need something like OBS...
You have over-simplified the set up process. Thanks.
Very detail and great video. Thank you
thank you very much sir .... very easy and helpful...
Best Web Presenter tutorial out there!! THANK YOU
I just found one of these at a thrift store. It is like the one in this video. The blackmagic site only shows newer models. Trying to find a pdf manual for this thing.,
Hmm, looks very nice BUT!... Would it not be more logical to use an Atem Mini these days?
Does the SDI PGM OUT, SDI Loop out, and HDMI Loop out include audio? I assume SDI PGM does, but want to confirm the others.
I hv a doubt...
Can we convert a single channel audio embedded sdi input source to a dual channel audio and then upload...
The webcam connector goes to the computer via USB?
Very clear and helpful, thank you!
Really good! Thank you!
Sweeeet video!! Thank you!!!
Web presenter video choppy. Is there could be problems wit usb cable. Can you suggest what cable should I use. Thanks
Can you use this with the original BMPCC Pocket Cameras (1080 version)? Knowing they're micro HDMI outputs, could you essentially use the Micro HDMI to HDMI adapter and use it that way?
Have you ever been able to get 'CLEAN AUDIO" from the HDMI LOOP port, or is it not designed for that?
God damn do i hate HDMI
Can i use this web presenter if i want to stream to youtube and facebook at the same time? or do i need 2 devices? if thats the case how to i hook up my 2 cameras to 2 devices?
Thanks for the video, can we see in OBS for example the 2 cameras and being able to add 2 differents scene ? thanks

What is your experience streaming 24p vs 30p? Is that an option? Thinking you would use less bandwidth in 24p.
how do you deal with breaks in the video when u transition between screens?

Tim Curtin,
Can it support interlace output of the Canon C100 mark one?
The Blackmagic Web Present works very well with Finncast Studio
Hi sir can you help me fix my problem I have web presenter but no audio signal but video is perfectly fine thank you
is there an option on the device to connect the mixer in order to get sound on to your camera and stream to facebook?

What’s a good way to record the feed coming from this
in the software
eww its always a mac book
when will people learn that they are not that good

can u live stream & record your production simultaneously with the Black Magic?
This two years late, but yes. Use the SDI or HDMI loop out ports. As a plus, these loop outs send the full original resolution. Meaning, the web presenter will only stream at 720, but can record (simultaneously through the loop out ports) in full 4K.

I am using the blackmagic web presented and I am facing the problem of glitch when switching between camers
Thank you for adding this. Your voice reminds me of Neil Peart.
Great Demo. As you said it'll work with any software. I wonder if it'll work with any camera i.e. a Nikon D850?
I would like to know this as well.
Looks like I could run the ATEM in to either of those inputs and have a serious Multi-Cam shoot..what say you?
What is the front USB for? Can I plug in a USB HD/SSD there for recoding? If not, is the recording done on the Mac? What format? Thx
That's for running software upgrades of the web presenter.
really Helped .... I was Searching a device to Live stream on TH-cam , Really Helpfull
Plzz tell me the prize?
Why in the world hasn't Blackmagic kept this hardware up-to-date?
My dream is to have a web presenter
Thank you! Very helpful video!
Very nice presentation! ♡♡♡
Thanks Teacher
love this video production coverage it was very helpful
so with this blackmagic webpresenter can I plug in a console and or PC with HDMI and a camera with the SDI and manage a stream as such ? and would it record both inputs at the same time or would that be software specific
thanks in advance
The Web Presenter can take the output of PC with HDMI and switch that with a video camera (as long as both are running at the same resolution and frame rate - in this case you would most likely be running 1080p60 for both) and feed that as a web camera USB input to a second computer running the streaming application.
Any audio syncing issues with the web presenter?
We have never had any problems with audio sync. This product is very simple to use and having audio meters on the option Teranex Smart Panel is great.
Thanks! When you plug a mic into the xlr, does the computer view that separate from the video feed?
The computer sees the audio and video as separate feeds just like any web camera.
Thanks... That what I thought, but the blackmagic support told me it didn't :-)
There IS audio delay with Web Presenter.
Does HD ATEM Television Studio HD Live Production Switcher works the same way as the Web presenter?

How can I use combination of web presenter and TVS HD to stream online?
With the Web Presenter you can stream with any software on any computer system that takes an input from standard web cameras.
That is really amazing for I like it thanks very much

I got that corrected, my stream is just slow now, I'm using OBS and TH-cam says my video output is low
If I have 3 cameras going through the atem switcher can I send sdi into this and stream through one source what the switcher is changing?
I’m having trouble with my audio coming out my board. I’m using xsplit broadcaster and it’s not working but it’s showing on the web-presenter though
