@9:50 - Yes, you can use an iPhone as a camera. However, you need to use the Blackmagic camera app, not the native iPhone camera app, and you need to adjust the software so you don't see all the camera settings on the feed.
Cat, that was the best damn explanation of features and limitations of the RCV. Thanks for keeping it real and being such a valuable contributor to the community.
This was an amazing presentation! You demonstrated what I needed to know that has made me pull the cord on this purchase. Originally I didn't want it because it wasn't 4k. After Tom's explanation and your demonstration, it will smooth out my work flow. Rode should have paid you for this!!!
Thanks for mentioning the 1080p auto adjust on the ZVE10 because I have the same setup and now I'll be sure to setup my Rodecaster Video with my Streamer X! And shoutout to Tom for the tip!
So much value in this video. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Im considering the RCV for my podcast setup and now have a better understanding of how powerful it is. The writing on the iPad is really cool!
Will you be doing a video training on how to build and use all functions/features of scenes? Plus how to save them, the saving feature has yet to work for me. I struggle with building scenes and cannot find any good trainings. Thanks!
Awesome video Cat. Your in my Top 10 streamers list 🙏 I have Elgato equipment, but I'm going to get a Roadcaster......because you made me realise I should really hsve one for the work i do. Cheers 🥂
Thanks for the informative presentation - still waiting for the RCV here in the UK. A piece of information for you, and your viewers - if you have an Android phone you can output clean HDMI video, so you can use the phone as a camera as I have done on my Streamer X. Thanks again.
Hi, Cat. Excellent video, thank you! I have a question you might be able to answer in a future video: is there a way to control the RCV audio mixer using the knobs of your streamdeck or using a similar usb/midi control like a Korg Kontrol?
Cat, unfortunately my question was not answered on this excellent video. I have a currently recorded/edited netcast that I upload to several platforms, Mon-Fri. I want to start going live with it. I have several images and videos that are shown along the netcast (it usually lasts 24 to 30 minutes). Would I be able to click on the RCV to show the (prepared in advance) sequence of images and/or short videos as I present the news? How could I achieve that? My idea would be clicking on a given image and after it is shown, the next one is up to be shown when I click on the RCV again. Is that a doable process? Once again, thank you very much. I look forward to your feedback, this time... All the best, Claudio Lessa - in Winter Park, FL
Thank you Cat, as usual, your videos are both fun and informative.🎉🎉🎉. I would like to take up one issue with you, because this issue is the very reason I want my boss to buy an RCV for our business. You indicated that you were not a fan of using the RCV to bring in virtual guests. I totally respect your view, but I wish to share my idea. I was planning on plugging a lap top into the RCV via HDMI. The virtual guests then send an audio/video signal, via their machine onto the laptop. The guest could send their signal via YT premium or Ecamm etc. The laptop is now working as a camera within my RCV. I thought that this would work just fine. So I am interested in why you are not a fan of using the RCV in this way. Is it Image Quality? Audio video latency? Many thanks.
You definitely can invite a guest on a secondary laptop, and that’s likely how I would approach it for a single guest. I think it starts to get complicated when people are planning panels, etc., and want to bring in multiple guests.
@@CatMulvihill Thank you for getting back to me. Yep, that is exactly what I am planning on doing- Panel discussions, Multi media panels. The lot. 🤞. I will let you know how it goes. The thing is that, if it works, we will save ourselves about $AUD45,000 in platform fees per year!
Thank you very much. Big help. I’m with you. Going to use it to control external devices for my ecamm productions. Trying to use the usb c ports for video has been very frustrating. I’ll search for an uncompressed webcam. I have returned four so far that didn’t work. Thank you so much.
@@CatMulvihill your suggestion to use a hub to both power and connect the hdmi cable was brilliant. Allows the ipad to stay charged. I’m making that change today.
Thank you very much for your videos. I’ve just discovered your channel and I am learning and enjoying it a lot. I’ve thinking of the poor quality of your phone image through the Rodecaster… (11:10 or so…); don’t you think that the bandwidth of the lighting could be one of the the reasons? I really like the way you speak in your videos. Good luck 🎉!
Thank you Cat, very insightful! For a beginner who does not have any equipment, would it be better to start with the Rodecaster Pro 2, or RC Video, or both. Looking for ease of use and short editing time. Thanks!!
Hi Cat, when you answered the question about audio gateing you described the high pass filter, you did however have the gate turned on in your drop down.
Gating, or as it is usually called Noise Gating is a feature that if the mic level is below a threshold, the channel basically gets muted (volume turned all the way down). This can be useful if you have s low level background noise like traffic or air conditioning. Zoom by default puts a noise gate on inputs, and noise gates need some tuning to make sure they don’t cut off the beginning of words (threshold is too high) or are slow to come back on after being opened and hearing that noise each time before the gated closes.
Missed opportunity to talk about what a lot of people need help with & that's using the RodeCaster Video with the RodeCaster pro which most already have.
Thanks for those tips on how to mute a mic in Rode Central. I am not optimistic in the question but could you link that button in Rode Central via a StreamDeck button?? I figure that is a "stupid" question but you never know. LOL!! And I love how you make a point of not pushing the shinny new objects on everyone! I bought an RCV but I am using it with 13 and 14 year old Apple monitors. No pain with the monitors yet and loving the RCV.
With RØDE Central being software that can control the RCV remotely, I’m crossing my fingers for a Stream Deck option in the future. I’m glad to hear you are having success with the RCV!
I sent a message to B&H, they still haven't answered me. The next day I wrote to you, a software update arrived, I did it and I'm recording in spurts at the moment I haven't reached an hour but it's doing it well in a short time of 7 and 15 minutes, thanks for answering my message.
It really depends on what you are using it for. If you have a lot of scenes, the RØDECaster Video may feel limiting compared to OBS. If you have a handful of scenes, overlays and media, then it could be a nice option.
I am trying to get my iPad to work and I am using similar adapters to you, but it still won't show up as a camera. Can you tell me the specs of your iPad and if you needed to change any settings? Thank you. I have found the setup so frustrating.
It's such a shame it only has 1080p input when you look at products like Feelworld L4, Ulanzi DD02 or RGBlink Mini-Edge who all do 2160p. It is almost already outdated before it hits the market
I wish you went into more detail...if this box isn't for bringing in remote video guests from Zoom to use as video/camera sources, what other setups do you suggest? I cannot find ANY help in here on how to do that properly...for our video podcast, with three hosts all over the country, how do we get all three video feeds into something like this to make scenes around and be able to produce the show on the fly instead of hours of editing after?
I recommend Ecamm Live if you have a Mac. You can bring in up to 8 guests with their Ecamm for Zoom integration. It requires the Pro plan, so it's an investment but that's the way I would go. There is a 14 trial if you want to test it out: www.ecamm.com/mac/ecammlive/?fp_ref=catmulvihill (this is my referral link) In May I did a series about Ecamm and the Zoom integration if you want to learn more: ruclips.net/p/PLvHSfPVVKOLFtsjzmfb-CAl9qBhM2hcpe&si=cArc3U3FDyDtFhDh
have you had any problems recording iso for an hour?. i used my rode switcher video this saturday, with 3 cameras and after 5 minutes my switcher was only processing for a long time, in the end it only recorded 5 minutes of my entire event which was more than 5 hours. today i did an update on the switcher and tried again with 2 cameras and it did the same thing again after 5min. just processing and until i turned it off and on again.
You can connect your computer's display, but I'm not aware of an option to send your built-in camera feed. It's designed to connect to external camera sources.
Cat, this video is really great! Thank you for the fantastic walk-through. I used the RodecasterVideo at a live 2.5-hour emergency training presentation in a Southern California emergency operations center on Thursday, and got surprised about the limitation on the number of active audio sources (as I tried to figure out audio as I was setting up). I'm not sure how user-friendly the one-knob, 9-active-sources-at-a-time audio control section is though. Seems to require a pretty thorough adding and deletion of audio sources for each use. Gotta figure out if I'm going to keep the RodecasterVideo.

Tom Buck is a great resource for that. I stopped using the RCP a while back, so I'm not the best person to teach about it.
The audio mixer for this device would work best with the Streamdeck Plus

Is Roscaster Video software a more suitable alternative to OBS? I recently discovered your channel and am trying to determine if it is.
It really depends on what you are using it for. If you have a lot of scenes, the RØDECaster Video may feel limiting compared to OBS. If you have a handful of scenes, overlays and media, then it could be a nice option.
Which app on the iPad are you using for the draw on screen section of this video?
I use Goodnotes on my iPad. I like it because it has a 'clean' output when you use HDMI, meaning it won't show the drawing controls.
