Re: New to Live Streaming

Re: Im kinda late to the party,,,,Canon XL 1
The "Dazzle capture device" you mention is likely a composite to USB converter. You're actually losing a lot of quality doing this, since MiniDV is digital, and composite video is analog.

Re: Question about a broadcast tripod

Re: Dmx in TV studio
Yes, probably.
If you're not going to run out of addresses, then it makes sense to make each fixture separate. If all your fresnels (for example) are the same address, then you won't have...

Re: Cable wrap
Techflex is my go-to. Adhesive heat shrink at the ends, and make sure to cut the Techflex with a hot-knife.

Re: Intercom for communication question

So it looks like you have the Eartec HUB and the HUB-INT. The HUB-INT is your ClearCom interface. If you're sending your audio over Dante, it's going to be 4-wire...

A lot of the price of the head and sticks comes down to weight capacity, build quality, adjustability, and extra features....

Since you already are using a laptop, I suggest using a software switcher like OBS or Wirecast. For your camera inputs, you need a capture card. My favorite is the Magewell HDMI or SDI USB3 capture...

Re: video Converter
That's an interesting issue. There's no way to set your cameras to 1080p? Also what video switcher is it that doesn't take 1080i?
