You're a genius. Lol I was just getting annoyed at why my .png with transparency had an ugly background to it. Thanks!!

Wow! THANK YOU! Oh my god, I was going crazy over this, haha.

Thank you!

This comment should be pinned to the top!! Right on...I was getting frustrated as well with this. Thank you for this.

Thank you SO much. I was so frustrated! This really should be pinned to the top.

Thanks! Glad I could help!

Thanks for watching!

What made you go to ATEM from OBS?

Awesome! You're going to enjoy it!

I email BMD suggestions via the support system and they say they are happy for feedback and consider it while making changes. If many people ask for similar things, it might get prioritized.

Only the higher end ATEM models support that

Thanks!!

That's a great idea! It looks like he didn't archive the live stream so I can't go watch his. I'm sure there are a number of ways to accomplish this though, check out my most recent "Studio Tour" video for another way to show stuff from a computer on the stream! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fJ2je6di3JbVqIE.html

Could also be utilizing a program called “Streamyard” which has the feature of showing the username, picture, and question built into it. Hard to explain, but what I can say is that this service is a perfect combo with the ATEM Mini.

Thank you! Yeah I think it was really unfortunate that they have only one USB port on the original ATEM Minis, at least with the Extreme there are two so you can record and use it as a webcam at the same time! I just wish they had done that on the smaller ones too

The main difference is that if the computer that does the graphics dies mid-show, you only loose the graphics and can reboot the computer. When (not if) OBS or the computer running OBS crashes, the stream is dead and show is over until you can restart and get back on air with a lot of fiddling around. Also, it's a lot harder for a computer to encode video and run OBS real time and push it to the internet than it is to run a simple lightweight graphics software like H2R Graphics and maybe even something like Companion to control your Streamdeck. You could probably run H2R Graphics on a really small cheap computer, maybe even Raspberry Pi (think there is a Linux version of H2R Graphics now). Running OBS as encoder really needs a fairly powerful computer. It's almost always better to let dedicated hardware/firmware handle things that they can handle and use computers for the other, less demanding things, in mission-critical applications.

Thanks! I don't know why so many people are confused by that! I've never heard it spelled out before, and "ping" is even the official pronunciation! www.libpng.org/pub/png/#history

The ATEM Mini should take any camera that can output 720 or 1080. That should cover most cameras unless you're talking about suuuuper old cameras that might only do 480. Check the specs of the camera to see if that's the problem

This video has some info about it! Also some links to other videos in the description: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sOB1jNaaxLaUgok.html

When you are overlaying graphics from one of the inputs using the upstream or downstream keyer, it will stay on when you change camera angles. If you're switching using the buttons on the ATEM you'll need to go into the setup app and choose "stay on with transition"

@@aaronpk thanks for the feedback. For example for a church feed, I'll like to set Bible verses or song verses as lower thirds in real time as they are being mentioned using a software like pro presenter which is on another system. How do I achieve this with atem mini pro? Thanks

Definitely check out @AJayTheCEO's channel too cause he talks more specifically about workflows for church. But generally you'd want to bring that computer in as one of the HDMI inputs, then you can overlay it using the downstream keyer. You'll need to use the Software Control app in order to set this up.

@@aaronpk thanks. You are the best

Not sure what you mean "normal mode". The Picture in Picture feature is the only thing that can scale a video source in the ATEM Mini

Weird, I thought I'd get a chance to edit the text. Thanks for the ATEM Mini tutorial/guides etc! Just fantastic and really helpful.

Thank you so much!

The upstream key can do your chroma key, and then you still have the downstream key that can do your luma key for the lower thirds.

I hear the retailers are slowly getting new shipments in, so give DVEStore and B&H a call and ask how long the waiting list is and get your order in!

Aaron Parecki, thanks for suggestion. I did place an order with Adorama just to get in their queue. Can imagine, though, that production halted in China due to the virus. Not sure if Chinese factories reopened yet. I’m converting a F2F drawing/painting class to online using Zoom and want a camera on me and one on my workspace for demos. I can do two logins and that works but one login with the ATEM Mini would be way cooler!

My Mini comes on Monday!! They’re in! Now I need to rewatch all your videos. Reason I bought this was to use it to do online classes with Zoom.. I want to connect an iPad or iPhone on me, a Panasonic GX85 camera on my workspace, and ability to switch to Keynote slides on my MBP. I also have an iPhone XS and an iPhone 6S+ available. Any suggestions?

What happens if the computer crashes in this case? You lose the graphics, but the stream stays up.

60 minutes is quite a long countdown, I would suggest maybe limiting the countdown timer to 10 minutes tops, which would give you 50 minutes to prepare ahead of time. If you really want to keep things the way you've got it set up and don't want to add new hardware, you could stream the countdown timer to KZfaq's backup URL. When you're ready to go live, you'd stream with the ATEM to the primary URL, youtube won't switch over automatically, but if you stop streaming the countdown timer then KZfaq will switch over to the primary stream.

​@@aaronpk woohou, didnt know that. Thank you again!!! :)

Try using the feature in Photoshop to upload the graphics and make sure "premultiply" is checked

@@aaronpk Thanks so much.

That'd definitely work! I've been using the hyperdeck studio mini a bit lately to play prerecorded conference talks thru my computer as a webcam. There's a really cool feature with the integration which is the ATEM mini can control the hyperdeck so you can have it start playing when the ATEM switches to the input the hyperdeck is on. The hyperdeck can also be scripted with macros so you can load different media with physical buttons on your desk!
