Totally appreciate you providing this content. I’ve been streaming softball games for the last two years. Recently got a Mevo and looking into the Pivo for Basketball games. Thanks again!
Glad to help!
Which is the better two of the cameras?
Mostly used to live stream worship and funerals.
Mevo Start is my choice for all my live streams. I’ll record with an iPhone from time to time, but streaming gets the Start.
do you game footage we can watch. I'd love to see how it tracks passing plays. Long, med, and short passes. Also kickoffs and punts. I have to say this has me intrigued. I am also wondering how an osbot tail would work when filming a football or basketball game. Another product that I've seen advertisements of that has me intrigued is the Pix4team. Anyway ... thank you for putting up these instructional how-to videos and posting your experiences!
Way too much going on for it to pick out an item or person to track on a football field. It is useful for panning manually. I had an obsbot tail for a while and product support just didn't advance at all while I had it. Even sold my Mevo stuff to get it and wound up having to go back. I'll be trying the combo for baseball season in a week or so and posting findings there. Hoping it will actually track since there are fewer 'distractions' for its algorithm to deal with.
@@JasonHoffmanYT Thanx for being a real life beta tester and sharing all your results!!
This is the first hearing about the Pivo. That might come in handy depending on how much weight it'll hold. I wouldn't zoom at all on the Mevo. The zoom pixelizes the image and it becomes unusable. It's a digital zoom and ok for up to a few feet. I'd just use the pan feature, or take the mevo up top where you don't need to pan.
Pivo pod was a kickstarter project a couple of years ago. I have used it to highlight some 3D prints on my Insta page but just recently started using it with the Mevo. Have mounted the Start as well as the Plus/Boost combo both right side up and upside down. It pans well both ways. I’ll continue to use the zoom as it has served me well in streaming baseball the past few years. Thanks for watching!
This is what I’ve been wondering. If Mevo works with Pevo. Thanks
It has been a great addition for me!
@@JasonHoffmanYT how much did it all cost ?
@@cruzsoccertraining832 the Pivo is on sale on Amazon now for $130-$160 depending on the model you get and the Mevo is $379.

You mention the MEVO app will let you zoom in.
Are you suppose to have both apps open?
I was confused since you said the PIVO has to be opened , if it closes for more than 5 min it will shut down.
This doesn’t shut down the filming of the MEVO correct?
my pivo pod makes squeaky sounds when moving while recording, is that something that happens?
I’ve not experienced any sounds out of my Pivo.
Can I control 2 pivos at the same time? Also you should reach out to the folks at pivo I’m sure it’s a software fix to keep the Mount alive without the app
Never even considered controlling two pivos at once. Once Mevo’s Multicam app is far enough along that would be very useful.
Jason Hoffman so I’m actually using multiple Mevo starts as an NDI input to obs and I was thinking of using multi pivo to Pan as I needed
Shivanath Devinarayanan great idea!
Hi Jason how do you find the wireless range on the Mevo Start, what sort of distance can you achieve before the picture breaks up
Its supposed to give 100ft (unobstructed) but my use is never unobstructed. I will say the setup for this video was a solid 70ft and even when people walked between the camera and my iPad I never lost connection with the Mevo. What you want to be sure of is proximity to the internet source. Closer to Mevo seems to be better than closer to tablet/phone.
@@JasonHoffmanYT thanks Jason
@@JasonHoffmanYT I tested 2 mevo starts and a netgear nighthawk router this evening very impressed must of been 500ft away from the router
@@glennhodnett7179 WOW that is impressive! Thanks for the follow-up!
@@JasonHoffmanYT 400ft it was i just used an online measuring tool, i had 2 cameras one at about 50 ft away from base with the nighthawk and laptop running vMix capturing the NDI signal which i found had a few break ups in signal but the one 400ft was good. I plan to use them for behind goal shots so a bit of tinkering with the wifi settings and hopefully all will be good, thanks for the sports demo videos using the Mevo theres none about on youtube really so you convinced me to buy them, keep up the good work :) I just need to suss out making a weatherproof cover for them over here in the UK we dont get many dry days
Nice videos by the way. I’ve seen so many footage examples with mevo but they don’t use any of the zoom!
Thanks! Setting up my baseball shots I have to use the zoom. We’ll see how it handles football Friday night if we still have power after the hurricane moves thru.
Just wondering if pivo compatible with seasoncast livestream app ? Thanks
I have no experience with seasoncast. Sorry.
Jason I have a 20’ tripod how far have you gotten away from the pivot with the remote and on that note does the mevo allow you to be 20’ from your phone and hotspot connected devices? Thanks
I have been 50 or so feet from the Mevo/Pivo setup and both phone and remote functioned well. Will you be in below the tripod on field level or elevated in bleachers? I ask because bodies between you and the equipment can be detrimental to the connection.
@@JasonHoffmanYT I will be below it. I would prefer to walk about 20’ from the tripod and sit and watch the game on the sidelines. When I tried this with my GoPro 8 last weekend the connection to my phone was horrible from the GoPro even when I was right underneath. Then my GoPro for some reason turned off or stoped recording at about 8 minutes during every game. Plenty of room available on my SD. Batteries on the GoPro lasted 1 battery per game. I’m hoping mevo will fix all this. Thanks for replying and helping. Really appreciate that.
This positioning will work very well with Mevo. Provided your internet upload speed is 10mbps or so you should be golden.

Which tripod should be bought? Thank you for the video !
To control both as described it takes two devices. One for Mevo app and all it does and one for Pivo to keep it from shutting down. I have a video call with Pivo coming Monday and am asking for help with this type use.
That being said, if the phone/tablet and the Mevo are both connected to a router for internet connection then no, going out of the Mevo app doesn't stop filming/streaming.
I don't trust a tripod. Mounted mine to a monopod attached to something secure. Too much happening on a sideline that could knock a tripod over. If you do use one, make it a beefy one.
Have you tried using pivo for a youth basketball game?
I have not tried to stream in a gym yet. Was set to when I was diagnosed with Covid. But my concern is our local gyms are built like isolation chambers when it comes to cellular signal. The Pivo should be a good solution for basketball and volleyball tho. It's pan speed with the remote is not fast, but zoomed out a bit it should handle everything except an unexpected down court pass. Thanks for the question!
Hope youve had a successful recovery , in your video where you mentioned you were getting a replacement Mevo plus , have you had an opportunity to use it w the Pivo to any success , lastly have you tried the Pivo w the Boost attached and your results . Thank you for the quality content .
Thanks ERIC, I’ve tested the Plus with the Pivo but not including the boost.
