Great tutorial. Thank you Just a note on the ATEM Mini Pro & Photoshop CC2020: If one saves the files - PNG or TGA - with transparency, one has to disable the 'Pre Multiplied Key' option in the Downstream Key. Otherwise the transparency does not work correctly. The sample PNG files work OK. Direct export from PS to the ATEM works OK too. I did struggle to save a useable file from PS until I tried unchecking the said button on the ATEM mgmt s/w. Again - thanks for the tutorial and the reviews.
I was racking my brains because it wasn’t working, and then I realized I had to turn off the invert option. For whatever reason it was activated and as soon as I turned it off, everything went smooth. Great tutorial as always.
Running a show tomorrow with live projector feed in house with song texts, live stream and singer song text presenter on the stage simultaneously tomorrow, as well as multiple live interactive Slido Polls. Didn't work with the ATEM for roughly a year, so it was the perfect video to catch up!
Great tutorial. I was trying to figure out this on my own, kinda following the 3rd method you explained but I didn't know H2R and was using Google Slides. But H2R it's much simpler and you explained how to make it work in the ATEM Mini Extreme. Greatly appreciated!
Got this working via the upstream key option before I found your video. Guess I need to do some reading on the difference between the upstream and downstream keyer options in the ATEM mini.
Awesome tutorial. All I'm after is one transparent lower third that I can keep stored on the ATEM between powering on and off and call at will with a hardware button. Like you say, hopefully this will come with an update!
Great video! Awesome they included the Photoshop plugin. That's super handy. Unfortunately my PNGs and even Exports to the ATEM aren't showing up as transparent. They've always got a black or white background... any idea what could be going on?
If you're using the photoshop plugin, first make sure your photoshop document has a transparent background, and also make sure the "pre-multiplied alpha" checkbox is checked.
@@aaronpk I've done both and it still comes up with a black or white background in the ATEM :( I may have to reach out to their support or the user forum.
University of RUclips. Thanks bro, your videos have helped me sort my way through the setup for our livestream of our shows. You're an invaluable resource! BMD should hire you!
Thanks for your help today, I have now tried H2r Graphichs with my Atem mini and OBS i works fine - Thx Per Rasmussen Bornholm / Denmark - look forward to your next session
This is definitely the most informative video on using graphics with the atem mini. Can you explain further how to use the downstream keyer? I would love to get more training on the topic. Thanks so much for your help!
Hey Aaron....thanks for a great video and demonstration. I am really struggling to show song lyrics overlaying the live feed using a separate laptop with HDMI out to the Atem Mini Pro. Would really appreciate your help giving me a step by step guide how to do it. Thanking you in advance.
Your videos are amazing! I’m hoping black magic have let us have programmable buttons… I’ve been using Ecamm for a while now and bought an atem mini pro iso thinking I could record and stream to ecamm. Unfortunately I found out after that’s not how it works. The atem feels like a step back 😥
Thank you! Yeah I think it was really unfortunate that they have only one USB port on the original ATEM Minis, at least with the Extreme there are two so you can record and use it as a webcam at the same time! I just wish they had done that on the smaller ones too
The ATEM Mini should take any camera that can output 720 or 1080. That should cover most cameras unless you're talking about suuuuper old cameras that might only do 480. Check the specs of the camera to see if that's the problem
I email BMD suggestions via the support system and they say they are happy for feedback and consider it while making changes. If many people ask for similar things, it might get prioritized.
Thanks for all your amazing videos Aaron! I've learned a ton watching them. I know there's probably not much I can do about this, but one thing I *wanted* to do is be able to share my ipad screen during Zoom meetings. I have my camera and the iPad as the two HDMI sources. I realized though, when I switch over to the iPad, it's obviously not the same as sharing the screen. I guess the only option is for me to join the Zoom meeting on the iPad... Was hoping for some magic tho!
Great video Aaron. Applies equally well to the ATEM Studio HD switcher. You are right - BM Design has practically no training, although their support is good. Thanks!
Aaron Love your videos. Is there a way to create a macro that tells ATEM MINI what graphic to use from the Media pool by number or name. For example to change Camera inputs and Chroma Key backgrounds. I would love to see a Macro Video on this can not find anything on RUclips. Thanks.
Hi Aaron and thank you for all the information I found here 🙏 You are fantastic! I am wondering if there is some simple way how to switch between two RTMP sources. I would love show 60 minutes countdown but still, be able to prepare my ATEM Mini Pro setup for the streaming session during these 60 minutes. So something dedicated just for the countdown. I tried to stream from two devices with the same RTMP RUclips key, but RUclips gives me an error saying something like "there are multiple sources".. Thank you for your time ❤
60 minutes is quite a long countdown, I would suggest maybe limiting the countdown timer to 10 minutes tops, which would give you 50 minutes to prepare ahead of time. If you really want to keep things the way you've got it set up and don't want to add new hardware, you could stream the countdown timer to RUclips's backup URL. When you're ready to go live, you'd stream with the ATEM to the primary URL, youtube won't switch over automatically, but if you stop streaming the countdown timer then RUclips will switch over to the primary stream.
Another great tutorial! I saw someone using one of these ATEMs a few days ago, and they were asking their viewers for questions, then showing the viewer’s RUclips thumbnail along with the question in real time. My mind was blown. I’m assuming they were using H2R Graphics, but I’d be interested in your thoughts Aaron. It was Curtis Judd’s live stream for two days ago.
That's a great idea! It looks like he didn't archive the live stream so I can't go watch his. I'm sure there are a number of ways to accomplish this though, check out my most recent "Studio Tour" video for another way to show stuff from a computer on the stream! ruclips.net/video/F7sHD1w0qxM/видео.html
Could also be utilizing a program called “Streamyard” which has the feature of showing the username, picture, and question built into it. Hard to explain, but what I can say is that this service is a perfect combo with the ATEM Mini.
Thanks for the video Aaron. I'm looking ATEM Mini Pro mostly as a Chroma keyer (to key live taking head video shot on green against various video backgrounds) as as a web-cam for video conferences. Right now I'm doing it all in software on the laptop I use for video conferencing (ManyCam software on Mac w/ a AJA U-Tap to HDMI->USB). I'd love to get the Chromakey work off the computer. Since I want the backgrounds to be animated, it seems like an HDMI input is the only way to go. I'm wondering if you considered a HyperDeck Studio Mini as the HDMI source for the background graphics? I realize this is probably overkill.
That'd definitely work! I've been using the hyperdeck studio mini a bit lately to play prerecorded conference talks thru my computer as a webcam. There's a really cool feature with the integration which is the ATEM mini can control the hyperdeck so you can have it start playing when the ATEM switches to the input the hyperdeck is on. The hyperdeck can also be scripted with macros so you can load different media with physical buttons on your desk!
Cool tips but for stuff like that I use good old Camtwist app in combination with my mini. This way I can play back mediafiles add more webcams, CamLinks etc etc too. I use a CamLink (USB3 to HDMI dongle) to get the stream in to my mac, HDMI output on the mini in to the camlink HDMI and them output via USB in to the mac usb3. The usb on the unit is USB2 only if I got it right.
Hello Aaron, I was waiting for a product like Blackmagic ATEM Mini Pro for a while and I am glad that they just announced it..I have already placed a pre-order on that one...I am also looking for a video where you are showing macro control using Elgato Stream Deck..i would love to see that one..Please kindly provide the link..
I need to be able to just use the min pro ISO as a logo switcher. We do sometimes get Powerpoint video from clients as well. The HDMI ouput will be going directly down to our video matrix via a cat 6 balun, then to the tvs. Your comment about till images only worries me. Or did I understand that wrong. Ive never used a mini or anything like it, Im brand new to this. Any advice is welcome. thank you. Also, our venue is in nashville on broadway.
Hi. How do i add text using lower thirds real-time while I switch across 2 camera feeds? Assuming I can bring in a feed from another computer where the text are selected or set
When you are overlaying graphics from one of the inputs using the upstream or downstream keyer, it will stay on when you change camera angles. If you're switching using the buttons on the ATEM you'll need to go into the setup app and choose "stay on with transition"
@@aaronpk thanks for the feedback. For example for a church feed, I'll like to set Bible verses or song verses as lower thirds in real time as they are being mentioned using a software like pro presenter which is on another system. How do I achieve this with atem mini pro? Thanks
Definitely check out @AJayTheCEO's channel too cause he talks more specifically about workflows for church. But generally you'd want to bring that computer in as one of the HDMI inputs, then you can overlay it using the downstream keyer. You'll need to use the Software Control app in order to set this up.
Hi Aaron, wondering if the ATEM Mini could be used for simple travel video production instead of Live streaming. Appreciate your advise, please. Thanks!
Thanks for sharing some really good info here. I just found out yesterday that if you use a an older mac that can run CamTwist with a capturecard in it like the Intensity Pro or a Camlink USB capturecard and route the HDMI out from the mini in to the capturecard you can do all that a little easier and even more and still use all what´s build in to the Atem Mini series. The mini will show up in CamTwist as a webcam.
So many things did not match between the video and my photoshop and Atem software control, but I got it to almost work... I see that your lower third has full opacity, but when i turn on the one I created, even if it is at full opacity in Photoshop, it only gets to a max of about 90% opacity in Atem... Between 2 frustrating programs like PS and Atem control, my level of frustration is through the roof...
If i use Green screnn and Chromakey in my Upstream Key. Can I then not add a lower thirds either through Media Player as a static image or HDMI with H2R graphics with just a white/black luma channel ?
I need the contact information for the company who manufactured your 3d ATEM switcher. A few of the screws and nuts fell off. I need to get replacement screws & nuts so I can use the Atem stand
I had the exact same issue getting the software control app (2:40). There was very little guidance from BM. Actually none what so ever. I found it very frustrating and disappointing. Even their PDF manual failed to give any guidance in this. It is a great switcher. But come on BM... your website and setup instructions are just horrible! Thanks so much for this video. Your channel is AWESOME!
Am I able to overlay a corporate logo as a static and then lower 3rds or PIP as well? Could I do this by upstreaming the logo and downstreaming the lower 3rd?
@@samschofield8367 You could use one of the HDMI inputs to play media off a different device. But you're still limited to one downstream and one upstream source. Beyond that you'd have to look at different hardware, either the TV Studio which has more media players and sources, or get a second Mini and chain them together.
@@samschofield8367 I do see the option to use "Camera 1" as the fill source of the upstream DVE, and "Media Player 1" as the fill source of the downstream key. So if you brought in one of the graphics via HDMI you can do it.
Hello Aaron thanks for this video. Can you make a video that show the diferen picture in picture ATEM does? I need to divide a screen in 3 parts. Two cameras and a pc windows screen. Is it possibel. Thanks
Thumbs up to you. Just curious, on ATEM mini pro, have you had any weird false color look on channel 1 input? I found that inputting a wireless signal feed into 1 gave me the false color look. Same wireless into 2,3,4 were normal color. Hardwire all the way on 1 input yielded proper normal results. BMD had no answer for it. This issue also shows on their forum.
It depends on the color space the HDMI transmitter is using, RGB vs YUV. I'm guessing the particular wireless transmitter you're using is fixed to one color space instead of negotiating it via HDMI. Input 1 on the ATEM Mini is special because it can do a pure pass-through to the HDMI output. I'm not exactly sure how that overlaps with the color space issue, but must be related.
Could you explain it a little bit slower (especially for me. I am not an english native speaker ;-) ?). I would like to see you helpful tricks in a step-by-step explanation. I just start to explore the ATEM mini and your videos helped me a lot! Thank you so much! - Greetings from good old Germany. :-)
Hi, I got couple of questions to ask; 1. how can i lock the overlays? do i really need to press "key on" everytime I switch cameras? 2. I'm using windows, It seems like there's no full screen view for H2R. Its stills shows the title bar. Thanks and more power!
Hey Aaron, thanks for the tutorial, I have used these however when yout cut to another camera angle the logos also go off air how do I lock the logos and some graphics so that I only need to cut the camera angles without having to click the on air for logos and lowerthirds whenevr I cut. Thanks
Great video, thanks! I was using a Deity D4 mic directly into the ATEM mini audio port 1, but after you mentioned the lag, I attached it directly to my Sony ZV-1 and turned on audio for the Camera 1 input. Now I can't get any audio into my Zoom meetings - it doesn't recognize any mic. Any ideas?
That’s odd... which input your audio is set to shouldn’t have anything to do with what Zoom sees for audio devices. One thing to try is to monitor the audio coming out of the HDMI port (easiest is to plug the HDMI into a monitor that has a headphone jack) just to make sure your audio is working. Then if Zoom can’t see it it’s a problem in the computer, usually fixed by unplugging the USB or rebooting the computer.
@@aaronpk I was able to record the audio from the ATEM mini with Ecamm Live. Just not Zoom. Will try your suggestions - thanks for the speedy and clear response :)
I don't want to use the media player or software for lowerthirds. I want to use an input. Can I just change the DSK fill and key sources to an input instead?
Did something change because I see that people can create animated lower thirds now all within the ATEM software? It's a series of PNG files but it works like a charm.
Hello and thanks for this great info. I'm a newby on this live streaming thing. I just got lost in option 3. You mean you connect the same laptop you're using to control the Atem and stream back to the Atem via HDMI?
Aaron, since you own both the Atem Mini and the Pro, I am curious if you considered daisy chaining them together to form an 8 channel switcher? More specifically, now you have two chroma keyers??
Rick Allen Ive definitely thought about that, but haven't actually put it to the test yet. I think I'd be most likely to use one as a dedicated keyer, and the other for switching, or use one to just stream and add a corner bug or something. If I'm going to actually have 6 or more cameras I'd probably use the TVS at that point.
Hello @Aaron, is there a app for the ipad that would allow me to send overlays and graphics to the atem mini. I want to use the ipad as a extra input into the atem and configure the atem with a macro to use that input for upstream keying while displaying overlays such as lowerthirds? Hope I am making sense.
Yeah! Take a look at H2R Graphics which lets you load the overlay URL on an iPad, and if you don't want to use just a regular browser, check out LiveApp's URL overlay feature!
Do you know if the new mini Pro has macro programable buttons on the device itself? I haven’t heard anyone talk about this aspect except you. It seems clunky to have to mess with the software to flip in graphics. Thanks.
since the atem mini or pro can be used over a network connection, and I won't be using obs or ecam etc, do i really need to use ndi? and also can I still use ReStream to broadcast to other channels using the atem?? Thanks
Hello. I need some help. My graphic designer has built lower thirds for me using my custom logo. The files are PNG. When I add the files to the media pool they have a white background instead of being transparent. What are we missing?
Great tutorial. Thank you
Just a note on the ATEM Mini Pro & Photoshop CC2020: If one saves the files - PNG or TGA - with transparency, one has to disable the 'Pre Multiplied Key' option in the Downstream Key. Otherwise the transparency does not work correctly. The sample PNG files work OK. Direct export from PS to the ATEM works OK too. I did struggle to save a useable file from PS until I tried unchecking the said button on the ATEM mgmt s/w.
Again - thanks for the tutorial and the reviews.
You're a genius. Lol I was just getting annoyed at why my .png with transparency had an ugly background to it. Thanks!!

The upstream key can do your chroma key, and then you still have the downstream key that can do your luma key for the lower thirds.
Thanx for the great tutorial; it has been helpful.
At church for livestream we have song lyric we have on atem mini we are looking to add another one for the sermon notes
Was suprized you mentioned the stream deck, we just programed iurs this last weekend.
HI, nice tutorial, but where or how do I get the plug in for Atem in Photoshop, thank you
It gets installed when you install the Blackmagic ATEM Software Control app
I need the contact information for the company who manufactured your 3d ATEM switcher.
A few of the screws and nuts fell off. I need to get replacement screws & nuts so I can use the Atem stand
I had the exact same issue getting the software control app (2:40). There was very little guidance from BM. Actually none what so ever. I found it very frustrating and disappointing. Even their PDF manual failed to give any guidance in this. It is a great switcher. But come on BM... your website and setup instructions are just horrible! Thanks so much for this video. Your channel is AWESOME!
This was very well done. Thank you.
Am I able to overlay a corporate logo as a static and then lower 3rds or PIP as well?
Could I do this by upstreaming the logo and downstreaming the lower 3rd?
Yeah that should work! As long as you don't also need to greenscreen or show picture in picture.
Is there a way to add a second media player?
@@samschofield8367 You could use one of the HDMI inputs to play media off a different device. But you're still limited to one downstream and one upstream source. Beyond that you'd have to look at different hardware, either the TV Studio which has more media players and sources, or get a second Mini and chain them together.
Aaron Parecki but I can’t use different sources for the downstream and upstream.
@@samschofield8367 I do see the option to use "Camera 1" as the fill source of the upstream DVE, and "Media Player 1" as the fill source of the downstream key. So if you brought in one of the graphics via HDMI you can do it.
Hello Aaron thanks for this video. Can you make a video that show the diferen picture in picture ATEM does? I need to divide a screen in 3 parts. Two cameras and a pc windows screen. Is it possibel. Thanks
I'm going to try to demo this during my livestream tomorrow! You should stop by! ruclips.net/video/yaiY9tyGCj4/видео.html
Thumbs up to you. Just curious, on ATEM mini pro, have you had any weird false color look on channel 1 input? I found that inputting a wireless signal feed into 1 gave me the false color look. Same wireless into 2,3,4 were normal color. Hardwire all the way on 1 input yielded proper normal results. BMD had no answer for it. This issue also shows on their forum.
It depends on the color space the HDMI transmitter is using, RGB vs YUV. I'm guessing the particular wireless transmitter you're using is fixed to one color space instead of negotiating it via HDMI. Input 1 on the ATEM Mini is special because it can do a pure pass-through to the HDMI output. I'm not exactly sure how that overlaps with the color space issue, but must be related.
CAN you have a video playing in full screen on a second monitor and key green screen to be in front of that video playing as opposed to a still
Could you explain it a little bit slower (especially for me. I am not an english native speaker ;-) ?). I would like to see you helpful tricks in a step-by-step explanation. I just start to explore the ATEM mini and your videos helped me a lot! Thank you so much! - Greetings from good old Germany. :-)
Do you have a video on ATEM Macros? Creation and usage? If not, can you please do one? Thanks muchly!
Oooh I think this is the vid I need to watch. Nice
Thank you! They all works!
Hi, I got couple of questions to ask;
1. how can i lock the overlays? do i really need to press "key on" everytime I switch cameras?
2. I'm using windows, It seems like there's no full screen view for H2R. Its stills shows the title bar.
Thanks and more power!
Hey Aaron, thanks for the tutorial, I have used these however when yout cut to another camera angle the logos also go off air how do I lock the logos and some graphics so that I only need to cut the camera angles without having to click the on air for logos and lowerthirds whenevr I cut. Thanks
It would be amazing to run H2R graphics in a raspberry pi!!
Great video, thanks! I was using a Deity D4 mic directly into the ATEM mini audio port 1, but after you mentioned the lag, I attached it directly to my Sony ZV-1 and turned on audio for the Camera 1 input. Now I can't get any audio into my Zoom meetings - it doesn't recognize any mic. Any ideas?
That’s odd... which input your audio is set to shouldn’t have anything to do with what Zoom sees for audio devices. One thing to try is to monitor the audio coming out of the HDMI port (easiest is to plug the HDMI into a monitor that has a headphone jack) just to make sure your audio is working. Then if Zoom can’t see it it’s a problem in the computer, usually fixed by unplugging the USB or rebooting the computer.
@@aaronpk I was able to record the audio from the ATEM mini with Ecamm Live. Just not Zoom. Will try your suggestions - thanks for the speedy and clear response :)
OK, got audio from the ZV-1 to Zoom via the ATEM Mini when the ZV-1 was recording. When it wasn't recording, no sound.
hmm there might be a setting in the ZV-1 then. I use it with the ATEM Mini when it's not recording all the time.
@@aaronpk Thanks - will sleuth that.
Super video Aaron, you deserve alot more viewers my friend !, greetings & Happy New Year from Copenhagen / Denmark
For the H2R graphics and green screens, can you use luma key for the H2R feed and still keep the green screen keying elsewhere?
I don't want to use the media player or software for lowerthirds. I want to use an input. Can I just change the DSK fill and key sources to an input instead?
You are awesome, thank you so much!
Did something change because I see that people can create animated lower thirds now all within the ATEM software? It's a series of PNG files but it works like a charm.
The larger ATEM devices can do animated PNG sequences but the mini and even the TVS cannot.
@@aaronpk You could just use Keynote or Power Point for animated L3rds and run it through one of the HDMI inputs..
Hello and thanks for this great info. I'm a newby on this live streaming thing.
I just got lost in option 3. You mean you connect the same laptop you're using to control the Atem and stream back to the Atem via HDMI?
You can do that, but it's a little easier to manage if you use a dedicated laptop for the graphics.
Great information, thank you!
Aaron, since you own both the Atem Mini and the Pro, I am curious if you considered daisy chaining them together to form an 8 channel switcher? More specifically, now you have two chroma keyers??
Rick Allen Ive definitely thought about that, but haven't actually put it to the test yet. I think I'd be most likely to use one as a dedicated keyer, and the other for switching, or use one to just stream and add a corner bug or something. If I'm going to actually have 6 or more cameras I'd probably use the TVS at that point.
Really great info. Super helpful
Hello @Aaron, is there a app for the ipad that would allow me to send overlays and graphics to the atem mini. I want to use the ipad as a extra input into the atem and configure the atem with a macro to use that input for upstream keying while displaying overlays such as lowerthirds? Hope I am making sense.
Yeah! Take a look at H2R Graphics which lets you load the overlay URL on an iPad, and if you don't want to use just a regular browser, check out LiveApp's URL overlay feature!
@@aaronpk thanks very much, cheers
Do you know if the new mini Pro has macro programable buttons on the device itself? I haven’t heard anyone talk about this aspect except you. It seems clunky to have to mess with the software to flip in graphics. Thanks.
since the atem mini or pro can be used over a network connection, and I won't be using obs or ecam etc, do i really need to use ndi? and also can I still use ReStream to broadcast to other channels using the atem?? Thanks
This is My First Time Watching Your Videos First Vid Newest Memebers!!!
I am trying to find the best setup to use openCV over a 4k video input which should go out on an SDI output. Could the ATEM be useful on that ?
Blackmagic update available today that "Adds adjustable audio delay on the analog inputs on ATEM Mini models."
Thanks for the Video. It has been very helpful. Wanted to clarify Can we use Browser Overlays with the Atem Mini ?
can you show how u can get a camera / source feed then green screen yourself and add a graphic in front if possible
Hello. I need some help. My graphic designer has built lower thirds for me using my custom logo. The files are PNG. When I add the files to the media pool they have a white background instead of being transparent. What are we missing?
Try using the feature in Photoshop to upload the graphics and make sure "premultiply" is checked
@@aaronpk Thanks so much.
