    Hmmm... currently I have my ATEM Constellation 1 4K connected to my IPAD Pro, over ethernet. So, If I connect this way to get USB View, with this new cables-converters, etc., do I still get full connection/control of my switcher via iPad, or do I have to make that connection happen wirelessly via Wi-Fi? And what about the USB webcam connection on the back of the switcher? Does Mix Effect utilize that at all?

    Hello Adam, thanks for the video! Just a quick note on the photographer's workflow and the cloud storage. I personally wouldn't upload my raw images to the cloud, I need to select them first, edit them and only after that I want them to be available on my phone or cloud. Maybe that's why there is still not much investment on that. Greetings form Italy :)

    • @AdamTow
      @AdamTow 16 дней назад

      I shoot RAW + JPEG, and I only uploaded the JPEGs to the cloud. Bandwidth, even today, makes it difficult to upload the RAW images. My workflow did rename the JPEGs to the same filename that the RAW files would be renamed (shooting date and time + frame number). So, once I transferred the RAW files, I could reference them using the JPEG filename in Photos.

    Great video, Adam. I started with Mac on a 2015 MacBook Pro and a 2015 27" iMac. I love Mac hardware, because of its longevity and support. I sold my 2015 MacBook Pro to a friend a few years ago, and it still serves his needs. I had my 2015 iMac in storage for a long time, but i hated to see it sitting around doing nothing, with that 5K retina screen going to waste. It is now my daily driver for basic stuff like RUclips, email, messaging, calendar, etc... I currently have a basic 2020 M1 mac mini (8GB RAM) that got me into Apple silicon, but now it sits idle. I have two 2021 M1 Max MacBook pros (14" and 16") that are used for video production. The 14" is perfect for travel, while the 16" is connected to a Sonnet Express SE III expansion box. It is impersonating an M1 Max Mac Studio :). The M4's specs look great, but it will be hard for me to justify replacing anything at this time :( But, an M4 Pro Mac Mini does sound tempting.

      My last MacBook Pro prior to my 14" M2 Max MBP was the 15" 2015 MBP. I gave it to a family member, and I think it's still in use today. macOS Monterey is still somewhat recent, but do you see yourself using OpenCore Legacy Patcher to bring it up-to-date maybe next year? My rack mounted M1 Mac mini is connected to a Sonnet Echo expansion box. It holds the DeckLink Duo card for when I have to use ZoomISO. Turn that 2020 M1 Mac mini into a server for your home or as an extra video input for your studio.

      @@tdivina28 are you referring to SuperSourfe Box 1? Unfortunately, you cannot do transitions within SuperSource boxes. You could animate between box 1 and 2 in your presets, moving box 1 off screen when box 2 comes on screen for instance. The other option is to combine multiple ATEMs so the box sources are powered by the other ATEM. Then you can do transitions on that ATEM and the one doing the SuperSource will see them occur in the box. But that complicates things because now you have to manage two ATEMs.

    Hello Adam, got a few Q's for you: 1st My Hardware set up, I'm running a Mac Studio M1 and Atem extreme + an ipad version 7. - My setup will be to use OBS (for the sole reason to see my live streaming messages and all the bells and whistles OBS offers when doing live streams) - I will have the "Program" (showing the SuperSource) feed from the ATEM into OBS and then I'll lay out all my widgets on top of them. Questions: - In the event I want to run a video background loop behind my SuperSource, I assume I would just need a piece of hardware like an iphone, ipad that would be playing that looping video coming into any of my 8 HDMI inputs on the atem, right? How would I set up such a video loop while using MixEffect Supersource? Basically what Alex Pettitt (which he himself recommend your app towards the end of his video) did on the following video Minute 11:51: ruclips.net/video/08_-V3dKDI8/видео.html - Last Q: Image there will be myself (Cam1-hdmi 1) and a guest (Cam2-hdmi 2) viewing a video from my laptop (hdmi 3) as well as my looping video (hdmi 4) all coming into my Atem Extreme hdmi ports. How would I place a static visual video signal effect on top of the laptop video coming in from the hdmi 3 port of the atem? All in all I guess I'm just wondering how you can overlay different hdmi video feeds while using your MixEffect app under Super source. thank you sir.

      @@estrellasfamosasenaccion Yes on the video loop. Play it back on another device, plugged into one of the HDMI inputs of the ATEM. In the SuperSource Art tab, you set the source to that HDMI inputs. For the image overlay on the laptop video, that will be a little more complicated because you’ll want the overlay to follow the laptop signal as you change SuperSource presets. Is this a hard requirement? Or can you use the DSK feature of the ATEM to overlay an image on top of everything? People can accomplish this by placing another device between the laptop and the ATEM, providing the overlay. Like another ATEM or OBS running on another computer.

    For the Mac version, could the USB view be implemented as a dockable window ? And maybe even create multiple instances of that window ? My idea would be, that on a Mac with multiple screens, one could then have the Multiview on a different screen and maximized. Eventually maybe 2, 3 or 4 multiviews, if you add a capture for each multiview on a 2M/E, 3M/E or 4M/E.

    Im used to Tricaster - 4 ME's, 4 Upstream and 4 downstream all just point and click, scale, crop and switch. I have always felt that BlackMagic with all their software chops has ignored what could be a huge market by offering a direct competitor to Tricaster / VIZRT, but at a "significant" affordable price point. I'm working on a blog about this.

    Hello Adam, I'm in the process of purchasing the software? Question, is there any way to accomplish the following scenario: 2 to 4 person podcast (mostly 3) is there any way to also switch to the wide angle middle camera angle as any random person might be talking? 2nd Q: do you have a link were It would show someone how to also use the Video Follow Audio feature while applying the Super source at the same time? To elaborate think of talent 1 in a box on the right hand side taking 3/4 of the screen, Talent 2 same but in the middle, Talent 3 same deal and then a wide angle shot of all the guest at the bottom of all 3 shots, running from one end of the screen to the other. So basically 3 boxes on top and one elongated footnote wide angle shot at the bottom. Thanks.

    • @AdamTow
      @AdamTow 3 месяца назад

      Switching to the wide angle when anyone starts speaking can work if you set VFA to change the camera when any of the 2-4 people mics are active. VFA works on individual audio sources, so you cannot create a trigger for any audio source. There's a video from Aaron Parecki where he shows off how he was using VFA with me. Check out: ruclips.net/video/E1nI5-p35AE/видео.html I would focus first on creating the different SuperSource presets, then linking them up with VFA triggers. Keep in mind that if you have the wide angle shot via random audio working, you won't be able to use the SuperSource presets (because it will keep switching to the wide angle shot). Some people solve this by having the wide angle shot trigger when the Master audio dips below a certain level.

    Thanks for this video! I’m having some regrets with this keyboard compared to the smart folio keyboard I had before: How do I navigate in Chrome? On all my Macs and on the previous iPad I would be able to navigate backwards and forwards using command + left or right arrow keys.. this however yields no consequence, no reaction with the new one.. Also what is the esc key for? Where does it function? Definitely not like on a Mac desktop or portable computer. Apple should provide a chart for where these keys are supposed to work.

You can hold down the Command key for a few seconds to see a pop-up display of keyboard shortcuts in many applications. Escape key is useful for developers; I’m glad that they added it to the Magic Keyboard. The fabric on my Smart Folio keyboard is starting to split at the edges. I have to see if I can super glue it back together, because it’s just going to get worse over time.

      @@AdamTow It appeared I had somehow entered "Full Keyboard Access" mode. I switched it off and that cmd-arrow key navigation began working again. Also I didn't have to see the intermittent blue frame (extending through the screen edge radi! :D). One con with the new keyboard is the weight, but I haven't seen it mentioned much in reviews. It is quite heavy, but it also makes me happy with the 11" choice over the 13", because the 13" definitely would've overlapped a bit with the use cases of my MBP 13" M1. Quality feel however is very nice, and the ability to bring the iPad bundled with a very usable keyboard AND trackpad is great! Looking forward to exploring Lightroom use with the iPad! Funny you mention the edge wear on the case, it will be interesting to see how well the new one sticks together, seeing as the load on the edges will increase due to the added weight.

    @Adam Tow: I’m a new user. After reprogramming an ATEM with Mixeffect does Mixeffect have to stay on and connected to the network or ATEM itself to function. Or can I reprogram then disconnect Mixeffect and the computer it is using?

    • @AdamTow
      @AdamTow 3 месяца назад

      MixEffect needs to stay on if you use this method with Companion. If you program the trigger using the ATEM module in Companion (not using the MixEffect module), you may disconnect MixEffect. But then you won’t have access to other features of my app.

      ​​⁠no. In order to talk to MixEffect, it needs to be open and running. When I said to use the ATEM module in Companion, you would create the triggers using its feedback variables and send commands to the ATEM directly using the ATEM modules functions. If you used the MixEffect module, you would talk from Companion to MixEffect to the ATEM.

    I really like your videos, they are very helpful. I want to report a strange issue that has appeared in iOS 18 Beta: In iOS 17, when users used Shortcut automation to open or activate the Dynamic Island, it would automatically shrink from the large island to the small island after opening. However, after upgrading to iOS 18 Beta, the large island does not automatically shrink, but continues to appear at the top of the screen until the user manually minimizes it. Do you know the reason for this issue? Is it similar to the problem in this video, which is also an Apple issue?
