I've been using a FujiFilm Xt-3 with a zoom lens for several years with my ATEM MINI Extreme in a small studio. I'm about 2 ft back from the lens. Would the Obsbot Tiny 2 with the UVC to HDMI Adapter be a good setup for my main front camera for zoom meetings and instructional video recordings? I'm not worried about audio as I have a separate setup for that.
I’m hoping I can use it on the UVC output of the Atem Mini to get the program output and use the onboard HDMI for the preview monitor. That’ll make the device useful for live audio visual work.
@@DeployJeremy thank you for the response! So about 4 frames at 60fps, that’s on the boarder for usable in a live environment, but not bad as a backup option. I think that would work in about 95% of use cases for AV.
In my experience, when you separate audio and video feeds, in most cases you'll see a 50-80ms delay on the incoming video for encode/decode at 1080p and 100ms often for 4k on decent hardware. The only way to avoid this is to have a proper mic attached to a mirrorless camera and take in both audio and video signals over the same HDMI. Webcam mics also aren't usable in almost all cases. I just use webcam audio as a scratch track to align the quality audio.
It should in webcam mode. I haven't tested this tbh. The way to test this is to make sure it uses the built-in driver in Windows for webcams (and didn't install a different driver). That would normally mean it's a UVC camera. Then you can order and test the converter. The nice thing about this is that the Pocket 3 has image adjustment in the camera. You lose the adjustability with normally webcams.
I'll say "it should" because with the firmware update, there is a phone app remote control. Then you'd use that to control it, it would output UVC, and should work with your Yolobox. I haven't tested this, but now I'm curious🙂
Thanks for the video, I am having issues using two webcams at the same time with my ATEM Mini, apparently I can only connect one to the Atem at a time, if I connect two, one won´t work...can you do two at a time or are you finding the same problem?
@@DeployJeremyYeah, I know, but for some reason I can only use one adapter at a time... funny thing is that i can use an iphone and an ipad with dongles at the same time with out any issues.
Hello, Hugo. Sorry to interject, what particular issue are you encountering? I plan on using the same setup; at least two webcams at the same time with the ATEM Mini and a proper HDMI Cam. Please let me know because I was wishing this upgrade will resolve the USB Port bandwidth issue I've been having. @@hugotrevino2565 @DeployJeremy
@@MrSixtoIOrtiz hi, did it work for you? I was going to get to osbot device to connect 2 web cams to Atem also but I’m reading that it is not working for some people.
So this would work for an elgato facecam pro? It runs off of a lightning usb c cable that sends power and video. Thanks in advance, and I appreciate your video!!
I haven't tested this, but it seems ideal for the Facecam Pro, because the image settings persist in the camera's internal storage. So you could tune the image on PC/Mac, then use as a UVC webcam in the HDMI converter. The big downside to this with a normal stateless webcam is that you can't adjust the image, from the webcam itself once it's connected to the HDMI converter. Because Elgato stores the settings in the webcam, it should be ideal, but again I haven't tested this, I can't be 100% sure.
@@HoweyDoodat550 it needs to go through an Atem Mini or capture card, then it just shows up like webcam. It basically allows you to use a hardware video switch so you aren't saturating your USB bandwidth with a bunch of 1080p or 4k incoming streams. With an Atem off the PC, you just have one input coming in.
Hello Jeremy. This video seems useful in my case. I got the logitech brio 4k but it came only with a usb c to usb 3.0. I am trying to connect it to my old laptop from 2015 but that one only has usb 2.0 tyoe A slots. Tried a usb c to a cable that came wit a steelseries headset but that didn't work. Could this device do the trick? Or can i use a ysb c connector box that connects to say hdmi and use a hdmi cable to my laptop?
That camera is very picky with the cable it needs to output 4K. You should get up to 1080p with a normal USB-C data cable. For the 4k to work, you basically need a Thunderbolt supporting cable.
It will connect with this device, but I don't think I would do it if I were you. I would get a less expensive webcam that works with your 2015 machine. With this hdmi converter, you cannot adjust the camera image settings.
Again thx for your knowledge Jeremy. So i could either upgrade to a new laptop or pc that has usb c (my sons are saying it is getting slow) or buy another camera with usb A. In the latter which one do you recommend? I am looking at the logitech c920 but maybe there is a better one?
@@RedsparInvesting just to be clear, are you saying that the Brio 4k you have is not even being recognized by your device? If so, have you tried a few USB-C to USB-A cables? The Brio 4k still works over USB 2.0, but just doesn't show the 4K option until it sees enough USB bandwidth. The LogiTune software also will install the new firmware if that's a potential issue. If it is truly DOA and unrecognized in Device Manager, the C920 is still a great webcam. I'd also look at the Razer Kiyo Pro. I don't like their software as much, but the camera is a good value now. Anything 1080p resolution should work.
You can also find USB-C to USB-A adapters on Amazon for $5-7 shipped. For me, option #1 should be to save money. The Brio 4k is a good camera with the updated firmware, even over slower USB ports at 1080p
I'm trying to find a UVC-to-HDMI converter. I want to get an HDMI feed from one of those ultra-small, ultra-low-cost InfiRay thermal-imaging cameras for phones. Resolution is QVGA at 30fps, a bargain at $200, including a macro-lens. The camera appears as a webcam in Linux and Windows, so I reckon it should work. Do you know if the OBSBOT is the lowest cost solutiuon? Cheers
I believe it is. These class of devices are more expensive than HDMI to USB converters (the other way around, where they can be as cheap as $20). USB to HDMI starts at around $150
@@DeployJeremy Thanks for the reply, I did have a quick look around and nothing jumps out. I don't imagine it's any more technically difficult to go this way, but without demand to push down prices.. I'll go for the Obsbot, might even get one of their P&T cameras as well, that tracking feature looks nice..
@@DeployJeremyI did notice you were able to control the PTZ camera (presumably through the USB interface) with the official remote. I don't expect the thermal camera to provide anything other than a B&W image - any radiometric features like temperature overlays, hot-spots etc. plus alternate color palettes are handled by the phone app. Some thermal cameras have a mechanical calibration shutter and that's probably not going to be easy to access. Still, B&W is adequate, I'm sure there's a LUT or effect for applying the color palettes..
@gordo8189 I was only able to control the PTZ and related functions through the remote control. I sort of expected a Linux environment with basic UVC controls accessible via a USB peripheral, but there is nothing like that. I'm guessing it runs a headless version of Linux in the firmware, but there is no (simple) way of accessing it. That said, my computer science skills start at the command line interface, no firmware or assembly code.
Hey can I use this on the elgato facecam pro? I'm trying to Stream on tiktok, but it's proving very difficult with my elgato facecam pro and OBS Studios. Please help meh! Lol appreciate your videos
Can USB3.0( type a)to hdmi adapter,be used for external monitors, planning to use integrated graphics for minor tasks to save on laptop battery. My external monitor connects via hdmi directly to dedicated Nvidia rtx GPU, hence laptop battery runs out much quicker and unnecessary for minor tasks. Cheers!
There are solutions that use normal USB-A ports for monitor out and they've existed since USB 2.0. You are limited in terms of resolution and frame rate compared to a 3.2 Gen 2 port with display out built-in. Something like this is only $10 amzn.to/3WFHBwk (I haven't tested this particular one) and it's limited to 1920x1080 resolution.
If you need the webcam to output as HDMI, this device is what you'd need. I don't understand your scenario though. Does your TV support outbound video streaming with an app/browser using an HDMI input source? If so, this would do it.
@@TomKirkman1 that makes sense. Usually (not always, and I'm going off the last 10 or so Smart TVs I have had), the USB port is limited to just servicing the TV for updating firmware, etc. Even though it likely runs Android technically, I don't think TV manufacturers enable all or most USB functionality. Yours could be different though.
I didn't see noticeable sync issues, but I didn't inspect that on a timeline. Usually with something like this or capture cards, the sync issues arise when you bring in audio through another chain or port with a separate mic. Then the microphone is ahead of the video feed.
How so? I'm converting a USB webcam to output HDMI like depicted in the thumbnail. Is it because I explained first how capture cards work then explain how this is the opposite? I spent 20 seconds on that capture card topic versus 11 minutes on converting USB video to HDMI and the how, when and why it's handy.
hey I did not expect that much from this webcam, but 4k and ptz both of the looks awesome.

Thank you for the introducing. those are amazing. I'm waiting for my tiny2 arrive here
Would like to see a comparison of the OBSBOT UVC v.2 vs the RGBLink TAO
How is the latency? Are you picking up your voice from a separate mic and using that as the same source for all three cameras,
I’m hoping I can use it on the UVC output of the Atem Mini to get the program output and use the onboard HDMI for the preview monitor. That’ll make the device useful for live audio visual work.
@@dooshmasta I would use a second mic. As I recall latency was around 60ms

I guess people sitting about 70 feet from the screen will perceive the sound and video in perfect sync :D

Can you use 2 feeds at the same time like a webcam (Logitech bio 4k) and a DJI osmo pocket 3? Does it have 2 inputs to enable this?
Not the OBSBOT device. You'd need to do that with the Atem or an HDMI switcher
You'd need 2 of these OBSBOT converters, and run their respective outputs into an Atem Mini Pro to combine and switch them.
