This entire time I've been trying to go in the HDMI out door. Thank you hero. May you always crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentations of their women.
Thanks for the info. So far the only video I have been able to find that really breaks down the basics. Now I have a much better understanding of what I need. Thanks again!
Finally I see the video where everything been explaned quick and simple!!!One more question pls.How can I connect a"sound" from my mixer to it on the background so there was only a clear mix live on top a that video and no any camera mic sound?
Very important technology & many many thanks you
Cool, I am trying to stream a nest camera inside the bluebird nest box in my yard. They are fun to watch from building the nest until the day they fledge.
THANK YOU for simplifying how to live stream.
so far a great video tutorial seen so far. will definitely get that blackmagic, thx for sharing.
Thank you for the info, just what I needed to learn.
dude you explained it perfectly. Thanks Thumbs up!
Is it possible to get one device that you plug in all 3 cameras to go into the laptop or do you need to buy a separate piece of hardware for each camera you connect in? Thanks - great tutorial!
If you only have HDMI out on your cameras, I don't know of an external device that brings in multiple HDMI (manufacturers that you might contact to see if they make something are: aja, black magic, or Matrox). There are some cards if you want to build your own computer. If your cameras support SDI output then a great piece of hardware I started using recently is: The AJA 4kio www.aja.com/products/io-4k it supports 4 SDI Video inputs OR 3 SDI video and 1 HDMI input and it can be daisy chained (have not tried daisy chaining yet). It requires it's own power supply but it works well for bringing in multiple feeds into a laptop.
It will exhaust the bandwidth of the port. Its better to use switcher for more than 2 cameras.
I have a Mini Recorder for capturing content on my consoles and PVR but never considered using it for this! Interesting... :)
this very just amazing...indeed sterling teaches. loved it...thanks
Praise God and thanks for taking the time for this tutorial. Just what I was looking for. Be well!
Excellent video! Thank you!
Great Video! Very useful information
Thank you, shooting today and this was very helpful.
Thank you, this video was VERY helpful.
the lecture on how to stream line three cameras in live coverage is so nice but it would have better if if the lecture book on stream line can be purchase
Great vid thanks Sterling
does live streams use internet is you delete it or cancel it
thank you for making this video, it help a lot
Excellent video man so simple,.but if I use the gear you just outlined but have an external microphone that needs to get plugged into our house system for our guest speaker, where would I plug that ext mic into? And any brands you recommend? Great video again...
Though this was helpful TWO major details were missed on this video.
1. You have to download the drivers for the Black Magic UltraStudio Mini Recorder from
www.blackmagicdesign.com/support
2. After downloading the driver and restarting your computer, BEFORE using the camera as an external camera you need to set the perferences for the Black Magic UltraStudio Mini Recorder in the mac preferences to be set to HDMI in then it will work for the HDMI in.
Hopefully this helps someone else.
very helpful tips
Great video!
Very very helpful thnx heaps man God Bless👍💝
Rookie question: I have just recently started live streaming, and have an increased need for more than two webcams. I have the cameras; but my mac mini cannot "process" (for lack of a better word) any more than two. Before spending the extra cash needed for this equipment, do you think it could accommodate the extra web cams for live streams?
+Adam Philpott If it is already struggling to process I don't think adding more would help. If they are USB webcams and you don't need additional converters, I recommend setting up a "private" live stream with all of your cameras, and see what happens, if it works great, but if not then you'd know.
It seems like a pretty economical way of streaming until I saw how much Wirecast costs...$500, for real? Is there a cheaper option similar to Wirecast?
+Ed Ricker Vlogs I think OBS works. It is a screencast software that supports livestreaming
OBS is great for casual streaming. Only problem I found was it's not as fluent for changing to different cameras. You need to setup a scene for each camera. Other than that, OBS is a lot better because of the plugin library.
Burak Baggins But to set up a scene is not hard. With the broadcast mode you get preview and program «monitor». So not hard at all
Best of the best .. great work ..thank you
Can you live stream with Wirecast on sites for example Omegle? Also can you put a timer on each camera so it automatically changes the camera view over time? It would be fun if i could live stream a house party or something like that this way.
Question. Will this work for a basic internet tv station setup? Maybe something that might be a step up? Thank you.
+Anthony Baber Yes I think it would work. It allows you to have multiple cameras going into one place. If you get the pro version of wirecast you can add playlists for commercial breaks.
hi i have Blackmagic but i don't have thunderboit can you help me out is there any other way to connect or can you keep a link for thunderboit which has a usb output because i want to give input to desktop not to mac so that i can purchase
Very impressive bro
Thanks man! It was just what I was needing!
Hi, my MacPro 2011 has , 2 usb ports + 1 Firewire and 1 Thunderbolt !
so .....should i , plug in 1 camera in Firewire and another in Thunderbolt ? right ?
does anyone know why AUDIO won't come from my canon 70D to through wirecast? I have hooked it up with HDMI out from camera and into the UltraStudio device. Then thunderbolt out? I tried with an attached mic on my camera and without.
Some DSLRs don't send audio out via HDMI. I don't know if this is one of them. I don't have much experience with DSLRs but this forum might have some help : forum.telestream.net/forum/messageview.aspx?catid=44&threadid=12808
Great video. I wanted to try to have 4 cameras for a high school volleyball and stream it live. Is theresome way to have all four cameras go to a video where you pick which camera to feed to the wirecast? What upload speeds will be needed to have smooth live streaming? Thanks!
If your cameras have SDI video out we use a AJA 4kio for 4 cameras th-cam.com/video/TJ_NBZMx_-0/w-d-xo.html
If you only have HDMI out from the camera... I haven't tried it, but it looks like a good solution: Atem Television Studio HD, it works for both HDMI and SDI, www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/atemtelevisionstudiohd
I recommend 8-10 Mbs upload speed. Stream in 720 to conserve bandwidth unless you have super fast internet. Use ethernet cables not wifi for streaming. If possible be on internet(ethernet) that the fans won't be using they will drop your bandwidth quickly. Here is a chart for bandwidth streaming:
support.ustream.tv/hc/en-us/articles/207852117-Internet-connection-and-recommended-encoding-settings
I hope that helps.
Thanks, this video was very helpful and informative :)
Great video. I'm looking for recommendations on HDMI Cameras that can be used in a High School Stadium to capture a Graduation. Is there any thoughts on the length of HDMI Cord when using WC?
Depending on the budget and what you have for a video switcher there are many things to consider...
I use canon cameras, we Have used Canon XA10s (with their optional battery because our graduation is over 2 hours and the regular battery didn't last) but this year upgraded to XA25 and love them!
HDMI video signal doesn't travel very far, www.popularmechanics.com/home/how-to/a6751/how-to-extend-your-hdmi-cables/
I tried different things like extenders etc, but didn't work for HDMI over 25',
Tricaster makes 100' HDMI cables www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1085185-REG/newtek_fg_000879_r001_tricaster_mini_hdmi_cable.html that have worked well for me*--They work well in sending the signal and Wirecast sees it just fine, but the connectors are garbage and fall off easily (If you get these wrap gaffers tape around the connectors so they stay on) I think they are overpriced too, but the cheap ones I tried didn't carry a signal at all. We had to buy an HDMI Mini to HDMI cable converter (don't buy the cheap kind they don't work) We connected these to canon xa10 hdmi mini out with an adapter www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/981166-STUD/pearstone_hd_aracmaf_male_hdmi_c_m_ra_to.html/mode/edu
We were able to upgrade our cameras to XA25 this camera has SDI output which allows you to go much further over easily a couple hundred feet. (if you go this option make sure your switcher has SDI input-these cameras still do HDMI) I bought a spool of coax cable from home depot and made my own cables for our graduation last year and it worked very well- I ran the cable from the top of the bleachers to past where the graduates where sitting so we could see them. We switched using wirecast. It worked very well.
If this is out of your budget go with a namebrand camera (sony,Canon) that has HDMI Mini out connect it with the above mentioned connector to HDMI cables or buy HDMI mini to HDMI cables and run it to your switcher (or computer with Tricaster).
Sorry for the long answer, I've done graduation a few times and thought I'd share anything that might be helpful.
Jeffrey: Did any of these suggestions help? I am in the same boat, needing a way to put a camcorder on a Win PC for an outside event and would like to know how you made out. Thanks much.
When using cameras from various locations away from the computer to get various angles, does it matter the length of the cable vs quality of the video? What is the length of the longest cable that can be purchased for the hdmi video streaming?
+Andrea Slaven If you google hdmi cable run length you will find charts that explain how far you can run an hdmi cable. I have heard 50' as a general rule, I have tried to keep it under 25'. Some companies sell longer cables, like newtek tricaster 100' HDMI cables, I have tried these cables and they carried the signal fine, but the cables are cheaply made and the end connectors fell off quickly. If your cameras support component cable (red/Green/Blue) cables you can get the distance considerably further but requires 3 cables Plus 2 for audio. You might contact a reputable vendor that specializes in video equipment and ask them they could give more specific details on length.
Hope that helps
That's content that I would pay for...
What if your Mac Pro doesn't have a Fire Wire port? Is there a adaptor that might work?
Thanks for sharing!
thanks for the video. wanted to ask what hdmi extender will work with the blackmagic mini receiver and wirecast. thanks.
Intensity Shuttle mines dont have the Usb 3.0 compatibility it had the mini displayport(Thunderport) & I cant find a usb 2.0 or 3.0 to displayport(thunderport)
Hi Thanks for this tutorial, brilliant. One (silly )question. Do the cameras being used, have to be identical ?
+john royce The Picture looks nicer if they are all the same (as each type of camera processes the image differently , but it can be any camera that sends the signal. I mix brands and types of cameras all the time.
Thank you Sterling Teaches for your helpful comments, much appreciated.
Well done!
this is all well and good but how do you include audio say from an external sound console.
probably not wanting to include the audio feed from the from the cameras in most cases.
Interested too, pliz come and help us on this one. Obviously we don't want our sound to come from the camera direct but an external microphone
What about audio? Would you use one camera as the "primary" audio source if say you were using a lapel mic since they were all streaming audio/video back via Hdmi>bmd box>thunderbolt cable or could you use another solution obviously everything depends on camera placement and distance but could you run it back to an audio recorder that has a mic output and bring it into the mic input on the computer and still have wirecast recognize it?
+Jeremy Ables For Audio if the venue has a mixer(or if you mix your own audio) I try to get a direct feed I plug it into one camera, then in wirecast I change all the audio inputs to be that camera. Right click on the source and check the camera with the direct line attached to it, and uncheck the other camera audio source. That way the audio doesn't change when you switch cameras. If I don't have a live mixer, I input the camera with the best audio/mic set up. You also can have multiple audio sources selected at the same time. I hope that helps.
I cannot get my Macbook Air to find the Canon Webcam connected through the BM mini recorder into the Thunderbolt cable. I can view it in the BM Desktop Video Utility just fine, but cannot get it to display in wirecast or on a test my webcam site. Is there any resolution settings that must be set the same on either device or software?
Can I use Canon g7X for live streaming?
Hi! Thank you for this very helpful information. I had a few questions:
Does streaming two cameras at a time slow your computer/ the Wirecast Software down, or create any glitches in your Live Stream?
Also, do I need any additional gadgets for quality audio?
Lastly, am I able to Live Stream for both TH-cam and Facebook at the same time?
I am trying to set up a live stream for an event that requests live streams for both Facebook and TH-cam at the same time. I have two cameras and two BMD mini recorders as mentioned in this video. Any suggestions on how to work this out would be greatly appreciated.
Each stream will slow down your computer. But it all depends on your computer's set up (processor, ram etc). It also depends on your video quality, higher quality takes requires a better processor. I have a 2014 really strong Macbookpro with 8GB and an i7 processor and I can have 3-4 cameras work (single stream) without issues, though it pushes the processor to it's limits.
The best audio quality would come from a an audio mixer, if your venue has a sound board try to plug directly into that. I usually plug in the audio through the camera (this video shows how I do audio th-cam.com/video/yx7sFBUguYk/w-d-xo.html) You could get an audio mixer that plugs in via USB, but I don't do this so I don't have an exact recommendation.
Yes you should be able to stream to both FB and TH-cam at the same time in the output settings just make sure to select both youtube and facebook, but you will need a lot of bandwidth. (I have only briefly experimented with dual streams that seems to push my processor and cause hickups) Make sure to connect to the internet via Ethernet not over wif. Search online for streaming bandwidth calculator and it will give you ideas on how much bandwidth you will need.
This will also put more strain on your processor. If you have the equipment, I recommend setting it up with private streams ahead of time and try it out before you get to the venue.
Hopefully that helps.
Thanks for this video, I think this will help me live screen my church services. Right now I have my live video feed going into my Mac Pro which I record our live services into Final Cut Pro. My question is, can I live stream using your instruction and record in final cut at the same time? Please provide me with info on how I can get this done. Thanks!
Ray Sherrer You can't stream and capture to Final Cut Pro simultaneously (as far as I know). The wirecast program does allow for streaming and recording simultaneously (two buttons at the top, one says stream one says record-- you set them both up as outputs, you can set up the "output" to record a video file to your local computer then later import this into Final Cut, this usually bogs down my stream to do both, so what I do is stream, and then download the online copy of the stream for later or record on the cameras for archive. (the online file is lower quality, but the cameras aren't edited. I would experiment with doing both a stream and download before a service and see if you can do both. Wirecast has a good user forum: forum.telestream.net/forum/default.aspx?FTVAR_SUBCAT=38&nocookies=y&subcatname=Wirecast+-+Webcasting. Good luck with it.
Fantastic! Thank you!
The same set up that you have done in this video using the Mac.. Is it the same thing with a different computer other than a Mac?
The software wirecast is for PC or a Mac, but the black magic devices shown don't work as well for a PC. If your DSLR can be seen as a webcam on your PC it would work. I don't use a DSLR, but many do have this feature. You could download a trial of wirecast and see if your DSLR will connect to it. You could even google your model of DSLR and wirecast and see if someone has instructions for it.
Wow.
Thank you for the video. Very informative.
Question. Though... am working on a set up that would have to be wireless or at least two cameras wireless the other two wired using a device similar to intensity shuttle.
Is there any way to have at least one or two of the cameras wireless.??
The cheap way is to use iPads... (it isn't very consistent) this video shows How I used iPads-- not the best option.) th-cam.com/video/isfowmLy95A/w-d-xo.html
If you have a decent budget, Teradek teradek.com/collections/cube-family makes a bunch of devices for wireless, contact them directly for which device would be best for your scenario. I have called them in the past and found them to be very helpful.
Good luck finding a solid wireless solution.
OK so lets say I want to use two cameras so i would do this exact same thing. But what I want to do is live-stream a sports event and put the other camera at the other side of the gym and it would not be able to reach the base laptop. What do I do???
Hello - thank you for the video. Could you tell me specifically what cameras you are using? Would you recommend those or if you were to buy again would you purchase something different? Thank you for your advice in advance.
Matt Fuller I use Canon Video Cameras various models, usually I use XA10s (I have other consumer models, but they are no longer made) they work fine. If I were to buy again and had the budget I would go with XA25. I would recommend them they work for my use. I also would recommend contacting a professional camera shop Like BHPhoto in NY and telling them what you want to use the camera for and ask for their recommendation.

HELLO SIR CAN WE CONNECT IT ON WINDOWS LAPTOP WITH THUNDERBOLT PORT, THANKS
What if you wanted to make a presentation while being able to change your screen through a remote control during presentation? is that possible?
what does the black magic acutally do if you are live streaming? does it work as a external video expansion and render the video and audio without your native cpu and video board?
Are there any cheaper possibilities then the Blackmagic UltraStudio Mini Recorder or the Blackmagic Design Intensity Shuttle Thunderbolt?
Please could you list a list of devices used in detail?
In my part of the world, if you arent using a canon 5d mark 3 or 4 or Sony HDV cameras into sdi or hdmi, nobody hires you. Can it be done with such options instead of the cameras listed in the video or not. Lastly does the intensity work with pc or just Mac? Thanks
The intensity works well on Mac and is hit and miss on PC. There is a newer camera input device by magewell that works much better on both PC and Mac. For HDMI www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1105735-REG/magewell_xi_100_d_usb_hdmi_one_hd_hdmi_usb.html or for sdi www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1350328-REG/magewell_32070_usb_3_0_sdi_capture.html?sts=pi&pim=Y they cost more than the intensity but the ease of use makes them much better in my mind.
Hi, I need to setup 2 cameras to broadcast to the tv's how will you recommend I do been I only have one input to the computer (thunderbolt) and those this program allow to broadcast to the tv
hi sterling... I have an old HVX200 that I wanted to try as a webcam since it has such amazing lens and mics and we are all spending so much time on zoom with COVID. I have a USB C I/O MacBook Pro. how can I get it into that and readable as an external cam?
.
Can I add more camera sources by using a Thunderbolt Hub and using a Blackmagic Ultrastudio Mini Recorder with each device? Like more than 2 cameras with Thunderbolt?
I have never tried it and have been curious if it would work. I have not found anything online about someone getting the setup to work. There is a device that operates independently from the computer, but may be an option, Blackmagic Design ATEM Television Studio HD Live Production Switcher, I haven't used it, but it seems like a good option to get more cameras connected.
does hdmi switcher works to replace the cost of another ultrastudio mini recorder?
thank you
Amazing its Dec 2015 and mac users are still using old tech like Firewire , welcome to 2015-2016 , we have USB3/Thunderbolt 2/3
Hi, instead of streaming, can you record video signals from your 3 live camcorders to the hard drive of your laptop? Another word, can you cut live videos instantly on wirecast than burn your video to DVD, Blu Ray or SD card?
Does your wire cast software work on Window? Can you give a make, model# of your little black box that connect your camcorder to your laptop. Thanks
this conection works with a Hangout On Air ?
I bought Blackmagic Intensity Shuttle (Thunderbolt), but dosent shows any image !
Here is a video that you might try to get it working: th-cam.com/video/0WWGRzeCMHM/w-d-xo.html if that doesn't help try contacting the manufacturer Blackmagic to make sure everything is set up correctly. I haven't tried it with Hangout on air, but once it is showing up, I imagine that it should work for Hangout on Air, but I don't know for sure.
How about the audio for the 3 cameras set up live streaming ? I see you turn down the volume of the camcorder, so definitely your voice come from another microphone ( audio source).
I usually run the audio through 1 camera input in wirecast--either connect the mics to XLR inputs on one camera or run a soundboard to XLR inputs on camera. In Wirecast you can choose the audio source for each camera, I set them all to the same camera (the one with the mics or XLR input) so the audio stays the same.
If I go though this process, can I control who can view the live broadcast (at the time I'm broadcasting)? I'm an entertainer and want to be able to provide my services via the internet to specific locations, but block anyone who is not a paid client.
gary knowles hey sorry I can’t answer ur question but I’m in need of advice as well I’m trying to decide if I should buy the cannon vixia 70 or 82 I want to make long 1hr videos and be able to live stream but I’m not sure between the two is best I need buget friendly at the moment I’m just worried about the Quality of the video from vixia R70-80 and the compatibility with this older device with my new iOS devices I have
Gary, This process is just to get the stream online, to control who sees your broadcast is more about the streaming provider. I haven't tried that so I can't comment much on it. You might check with livestream.com/ to see if they offer that option.
Lady Tee,
The Vixa 70 / 82 are pretty much the same thing, the 82 has double the memory. If you are on a budget check out www.bhphotovideo.com for refurbished cameras and you can get a good price on one of those models.
Sterling Miller thank u for the reply the only reason I was concidering 70 was because of the AVCHD format compared to the mp4 format I heard it cuts every 15-30 mins but it has more space as u said and WiFi. I find that may give me a problem with the cuts within the editing process. I don’t want it to be noticeable because I will be making long videos 1 hour long max and I’m trying to get a good opinion for a starter I also need the WiFi so I could live stream.. on YT.. I know the 70 is a older model an I’m worried about the WiFi being compatible with my current iOS Devices. which model more compatible with current ios with the WiFi option and which allows for an additional mic? is the r80-82 mp4 format hard to work around or is the AVCHD Format easier for what I want to do when it comes to using editing software which format is best for PC I need the help I’m trying to choose between which is compatible and will give me both good enough picture for my buget compatibility with my devices thank you for the help in advance
@@lady7571 The older models used to cut mp4 every 30 minutes, the really older models would actually stop recording every 30 minutes in mp4. I have a couple of the vixia models and I try to always record in the Mp4 format-- it works easier to edit the quality may be less (I can't tell the difference between the filetypes quality). The Mp4 is a much easier file type to work with. If the cameras do cut the videos into clips it is probably because the files have reached 4 GB, but the camera would have to be in its highest recording setting (if it is less than 35mbs you should be fine). I think the cameras are both comparable--you shouldn't notice a difference in video quality. Both should have 3.5 mm mic plug (size of headphones). If you go to bhphotovideo.com find the two cameras and ask a question you are sure to get a clear answer. I would test it on my cameras but they are locked away as my work is closed for the time being.
whats that exact canon model you have on the video it dont matter if is not available
Canon VIXIA HF M50
Why do you need this adapter if there's mini HDMI to direct thunderbolt cables?
I haven't used those cables, but I image they only allow you to take video out from your computer and play it on an HDMI device, they probably won't allow you to bring video into the computer. The purpose of the converters is to actually change the HDMI video signal into a signal that computer can read, which is why they are so much more expensive.
Is there a cheaper converter than the black magic. Can you just use a HDMI female to male thunderbolt adapter?
I tried really cheap ones that I found on Amazon or ebay, but nothing worked, I'm sure there are cheaper than the black magic ones, I just know that those work for me. A cable that just connects an HDMI female to Male Thunderbolt probably doesn't change the signal and I guess wouldn't work. You could try webcams that work through USB. Then you don't need a converter. telestreamblog.telestream.net/2014/07/what-camera-do-you-use-to-stream/
Thanks!
hi, this is a great video. i have learn a lot. one question. can you record the video out unto a harddrive?
The software has a record button that will record a file to the computer or to an external hard drive connected to the computer. When we are recording with limited internet we will just record it to the computer and upload it later.
what about getting the audio of the camera? it comes from the hdmi too?
Could you use a hdmi splitter to get more
Thank for your sharing new friend
Should be able to run the iSight camera also. That would be 4 cameras.
my Q was (can i Mac be use for live streaming without any more camera?) i found your video clip- i have Canon XHA1 but i dont have cameraman to do all the work for me- can i use my iMac or Macbook pro 13 as a computer and camera for Live Streaming?
With an adapter you should be able to connect a canon xha1, I have never used that model, but online it says it has Component and SDI output. The mini recorder by black magic in the video would work for the SDI, or the black magic intensity shuttle should work for component out of the camera. You can contact the manufacturer to be sure.
What MacBook are u using, specifications?
Is there a way to do a three camera set up while also running ethernet for better internet connection?
It depends on your computer's set up. In this video I'm using a Macbook pro that has 2 Thunderbolt ports and 2 USB ports. You can connect 2 Black Magic mini Recorders to the thunderbolt, and 1 Intensity Shuttle to a USB, then ethernet to Ethernet USB. If your computer doesn't have all those ports (and the ability to support all of those simultaneously you'll have to find another way). If your cameras have SDI output in (different from HDMI) You can use an AJA io 4k, here's a video I made showing how to use that one. th-cam.com/video/TJ_NBZMx_-0/w-d-xo.html There might even be a newer technology that would work for it.
Cool! Thanks for the quick response! Trying to do a live broadcast on a regular basis and want to make sure we don't have any connection issues. I have all of those same ports as well. I'll look into the ethernet to USB adapter. Thanks so much!
I recommend the apple usb to ethernet, In my experience the non apple brands don't seem to work consistently.
Hi wanted to ask you what is the best setting you set for the recording ? i got the problem when recording the video got choppy .. pretty bad ..
Jikey Wee We usually just stream and record on the cameras for an archive editable copy, I don't have a good recommendation for recording. For streaming, I usually base it off how much bandwidth I have.
How much the output frame grabber has usb? and that the store I can get?
please tell me that it will work with basic mac book pro model which has Intel Iris Graphics 6100 ???
Can i do this on windows too?is Elgato Game Capture HD a solution?
I want to stream live services in my church but the only problem is that I am far away from the speaker,what can I do to get the audio sound near for the live stream watchers??
Reon Matthee If the church uses a sound mixing board for the speaker, the board should have audio out and if your camera supports audio in (via line or mic plug) you should be able to get the sound directly from the speaker. (you may need a special cable to connect the two. In an auditorium our audio board(mixer) has a red and white circle that say rec out (RCA) and I plug that into the mic (3.5 mm) on my camera and get clear sound. We need to use a Male RCA to Male 3.5mm) cable. It all depends on the audio configuration. If there is a person who runs they sound you may ask them for Audio out, and see what type of cable they give you. if you If your church doesn't use a audio mixing board then you might get a battery powered shotgun microphone. But going through the sound board is your best bet.
What would you recommend if the cameras are not close to one another? Hard to run HDMi long distances, no?
HDMI is very limited on how far you can run it. There are 100' cables made by NewTek www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1085185-REG/newtek_fg_000879_r001_tricaster_mini_hdmi_cable.html which worked well to send the signal 100'. Depending on your camera you probably will need a mini HDMI to HDMI connector. I tried other long HDMI cables and these are the only ones that I was able to get to work consistently, but they are poorly made and the connectors on both ends fall off. (I taped the ends so they don't fall off and they work great). The other option is upgrade to cameras that send video via SDI (Canon XA 35 is an example). That greatly increases the distance you can go. I've also used on camera encoders to send a signal by Teradek but they are costly. Hope that helps.
Sterling Teaches what are the on camera encoders you used by Teradek to send a signal without a cable? I am trying to setup a team of three roving camera operators on gimbals, which send their feeds to a capture device like AJA io etc and then into wirecast for switching. Or the feeds could go into an ATEM switcher first. Any thoughts? Thanks sir.
Darryl Ephraums I have used the Teradek Cube, but sent the signal directly to wirecast. I haven't used it in some time so I don't remember too many details. But I do remember contacting the company (via phone) and they helped me find a solution to what I needed. Their website has their phone # listed teradek.com/pages/contact-us Try calling them, It worked for me.
Hey thanks so much for a great tutorial! Are there any good wireless transmitters that can eliminate having to run long cables? I'm looking to run multiple cameras as basketball games but HDMI cables running all over the gym doesn't sound feasible.
+Jeremy Hack Use HDMI Extender over CAT 5e/6 for that.
Yes but costly
What output settings do you have the cameras set to? I got an Intensity Shuttle 3.0 but my canon hf r600 and 700 aren't showing a video feed and ive tried playing around with the setting but cant get one that get the video signal through
I just have it set to whatever the default is, It is 1080, but I don't know the details. The USB 3.0 doesn't work on all computers. I have used some that it works with and some that have the wrong processor for it to work. Try turning off your computer plugging in the device, plugging in the camera turn the camera on first then the computer. You can try watching this video about adjusting it's settings: th-cam.com/video/0WWGRzeCMHM/w-d-xo.html If you can't get it to work at all you might contact blackmagic and see what they say.
Unfortunately no dice, apparently the canon hf r700 and 600 are some of the only cameras that don't work because the hdmi output is locked at 1080p60 and the devices can only handle 1080p30 max, so you must be some sort of wizard to get three of them working at the same time.
QUESTION: I am trying to do live streaming for my church and I am trying to use three cameras. I am using Sparkaco, but after watching your video, I am proposing my church to get "UltraStudio Mini Recorder", but there is any of "UltraStudio Mini Recorder" more than one channel. One UltraStudio but I can plugin more than one camera.
+Bhutanese-Nepali Christian Community Church I don't think they make one that brings in multiple cameras, I think you are limited to just one. They make a different device but costs more the atem studio, I have never used it, but I think it brings in multiple video streams (you might have to bring audio in seperately I am not sure) www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/atemtelevisionstudio
or if your cameras are SDI you can get a different company's product, www.aja.com/en/products/io-4k I haven't used this either, but was at a trade show and seemed like a nice product. Both are more expensive options.
Hope it helps good luck with it.
Use a video mixer my guy then the output from it goes into the UltraStudio, that's all
Does TH-cam have livestreaming implemented now.. so you don't need to use the Wirecast software?
You can livestream to youtube if your camera connects to your computer or from a camera on a phone. The software allows multiple cameras to be connected and switched between for the stream.
I'm with you.. thanks!
Hi
Need lil help im try to found out if i can do live stream with this blackmagic esuing my onwe website ?
Hi Do you know if exist another cheaper alternative and regarding the Blackmagic Design UltraStudio Mini Recorder, It's possible used a kind of Thunderbolt hub to avoid pay for two Blackmagic Mini Recorder units ? My mac only have 1 Thunderbolt port and pay for Blackmagic Design Intensity Shuttle Thunderbolt I think is very expensive
The mini recorder is the least expensive converter that I have found. I am unaware of others converters that work, I am sure there are some out there.
Sterling, thank you. I saw the white box has many inputs. can it be used to stream more than one camera simultaneously into Wirecast?
Unfortunately no, it only accepts 1 input at a time, it just has the options of different types of inputs. I haven't found a good HDMI multiple input yet.
Here is an external switcher that connects to your computer but I have only read about it and have not used it so I can't comment on it: www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/766072-REG/Blackmagic_Design_SWATEMTVSTU_ATEM_Television_Studio_Production.html
If you have a PC some manufacturers make HDMI Input cards, I have not used them so I can't comment on how they work, but here are some: www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1201806-REG/magewell_pc_400_de_hdmi_hd_video_capture.html
Hope that helps.
Sterling Teaches thanks. I have one of the thunderbolt gray boxes and it works great. I have MacBook air though so need to buy the USB version for my second cam. have you used one of those with your Mac?
also can you make a demo with Wirecast for how to do side by side? is it even possible?
I had OS Mavericks installed before and it didn't work on the mac, After I upgraded to the next OS and now on El Capitan (and upgraded the Black magic drivers to the latest) it seems to work without issues.
Sorry I am swamped at work and don't have the time to make a video. I don't usually do side by side, but it looks like you have your source click on the gear (bottom right corner of the source) and choose change template to side by side or two together. It will then let you choose source A and Source B. Then right click and edit shot will allow you to get more detailed on how it looks. I hope that helps.
Does the blackmagic magic also convert input HDMI to analog composite through out rca ?if i have hdmi input and rca out monitoring.
I don't think so, I think it only inputs to the computer or outputs from the computer. I don't think it does both simultaneously, but I don't know for sure.
