Great tutorial. Thank you Just a note on the ATEM Mini Pro & Photoshop CC2020: If one saves the files - PNG or TGA - with transparency, one has to disable the 'Pre Multiplied Key' option in the Downstream Key. Otherwise the transparency does not work correctly. The sample PNG files work OK. Direct export from PS to the ATEM works OK too. I did struggle to save a useable file from PS until I tried unchecking the said button on the ATEM mgmt s/w. Again - thanks for the tutorial and the reviews.

So You do not like OBS for graphics because You need a computer. But both other offered methods also need a computer. I think the OBS offers the best solution since you can use that for other things to. But it was great to see that there are other solutions too.
@Robinlarsson833 жыл бұрын
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.

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"

Definitely check out @AJayTheCEO's channel too cause he talks more specifically about workflows for church.

OK. I understand all the benefits of doing this direct from the switcher. But the atem software crashes, as does photoshop, when I try to connect them. So much easier to just do this in Wirecast or OBS. I am finding way too many bugs in the ATEM. Having said that... your videos ROCK. So much better than anything blackmagic is offering. For me, you are the ATEM goto guide. And the blackmagic control has one of the worst UX designs I have ever experienced. Obviously made by developers who have no UX experience. So hard to use. Thank you for making it easier.

Hi Aaron and thank you for all the information I found here 🙏 You are fantastic! I am wondering if there is some simple way how to switch between two RTMP sources. I would love show 60 minutes countdown but still, be able to prepare my ATEM Mini Pro setup for the streaming session during these 60 minutes. So something dedicated just for the countdown. I tried to stream from two devices with the same RTMP KZfaq key, but KZfaq gives me an error saying something like "there are multiple sources".. Thank you for your time ❤
@aaronpk2 жыл бұрын
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.

Thanks for the video Aaron. I'm looking ATEM Mini Pro mostly as a Chroma keyer (to key live taking head video shot on green against various video backgrounds) as as a web-cam for video conferences. Right now I'm doing it all in software on the laptop I use for video conferencing (ManyCam software on Mac w/ a AJA U-Tap to HDMI->USB). I'd love to get the Chromakey work off the computer. Since I want the backgrounds to be animated, it seems like an HDMI input is the only way to go. I'm wondering if you considered a HyperDeck Studio Mini as the HDMI source for the background graphics? I realize this is probably overkill.
@aaronpk4 жыл бұрын
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!
