Anthony Balogun You could use midi foot pedals with keyboard maestro to trigger scene switching commands within OBS, if OBS doesn’t recognise midi controllers naturally (haven’t started using it yet!), have a look on Thomann, even something like a Bluetooth page turning pedal could do the job wirelessly I’d reckon

Thanks for the videos. I have an Atem Mini, and running into a problem with OBS. How do I get around the 30min record limit on my Canon m50, while using the Atem Mini? I run 4 of them, and they look great on screen, but once you hit that 30 min, they shut off, regardless of if we are recording.? ( if I hook them up to OBS without the Mini , it works, but I can only run one camera per computer, because OBS won't recognize more than one camera using EOS Webcam utility)

If you use android phones you will not be able to use the newtech ndi plugin. There is an app called ip webcam that works well. You can control which camera you use on the phone using your browser as an access point. With the right light the Logitech 920 is still an awesome webcam. Adding your phone adds some great hd. Nice video, Lon.

@stevesveryown 4 жыл бұрын

Also note, if you have a tablet you can add an OBS controler from the app store to easily control switching scenes in OBS without having to reach for the computer. Another thought is to by a descent burner phone to use, which, in most cases, you can get cheaper than a webcam.

I do understand that 5g has a bandwidth boost when unimpeded, but if you are going to use 5g, you are going to want to at least make sure there are no objects, water or walls in between your phone and the router as 5g object penetration is very poor. Another way you could reduce the impact of objects on the quality of the signal is to setup wireless relays, but that will also introduce higher latencies on the network so way the cons and pros. 2.4ghz, while it has a reduced total bandwidth, is much better at being able to penetrate objects unimpeded in turn being much more reliable in that aspect, but the obvious con with 2.4g is more along the lines of interference, due to the lack of channels available on that frequency band.
