Alternative to BlackMagic shuttle
If this isn't the right subforum please feel free to move, wasn't 100% sure.
I currently use a blackmagic shuttle to get my audio and video into a computer, where I use OBS to record interviews where the guest is on skype The signal flow is: Audio & video from camera => blackmagic shuttle => HDMI into my computer => OBS, where it is added to the skype guest's audio and video The problem is that the shuttle does not work as a skype webcam. If i have OBS open, the guest CAN hear my audio, but my camera is not recognized by skype since blackmagic isn't supported as a skype webcam./ My question is very simple: What devices could I put in place of the blackmagic shuttle that would do everything i'm currently doing while in ADDITION allowing me to send my video to the guest so that they can see me? |

we use these:
https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1318044-REG/blackmagic_design_bdlkwebptr_web_presenter.html/BI/2855/KBID/3801 they are made for exactly this purpose. We run all of our video (cameras, power point presentaiong onm a seperate PC, etc.) through a switcher and into the web presenter, but the end result is pretty much the same as what you are going for. We also have a couple Vaddio bridges that we use as well, but to be honest the BMD Web Presenter does a great job at 1/3 the price. |

Perhaps consider using NDI which is a very popular video over IP protocol from Newtek.
You get a converter box from either Newtek or a few different third-parties which converts HDMI or SDI sources to NDI, which is then available to all devices on your local network. OBS, WireCast, vMix, LiveStream, WireCast can all accept NDI sources now, with full HD quality as if coming from a capture card. As for apps requiring a "web cam" source, run the free NDI VIRTUAL INPUT app which then makes any available NDI source appear as a web cam to any software looking for a web cam source. https://www.newtek.com/ndi/tools/ Thanks |
