I run Television Studio off an old macbook pro which I was able to upgrade to the 10.6.8 mac operating system. my even older macbook pro will not allow me to upgrade to 10.6.8 so I cannot run LIvestream Pro for producers software so I cannot find the stream I output usb 2.0 on my older mac. I want to be live on RUclips not Livestream anymore. My question is, is there another software like live stream producer that I can run on an older operating system? If I try to run the newer mac book pro as the switcher and the output server it gets overwhelmed. I am outputting 720 60 on all cameras and have no hdmi input on either macbook pro to put image of desktop as a source. Also is there another way to show my desktop besides mirroring on a 2nd monitor and pointing a third camera at that monitor of my desktop.
One more question Lon and Thank you for the cable recommendation it works great! What did you do to fix the audio video delay or did you have any? I thought the ultra match pro did that but now I'm learning that is not the case. Thanks again for the reply!
What cable did you use to run from the Behringer ultramatch to the Television Studio? I just purchased this equipment and Im stuck. Thanks
Mat have you not had a look at the new tricasters we our using the 410 and 40 as well they our bait more costly but you get so much more with the tricasters they our def worth a look at we have a couple of shows coming up in the next three weeks using them ps we do love blackmagic as well we our getting in three new cameras that our the

unless you have converter's and the spec on them is a lot more as with everything you pay for what you get and in the tricasters you get i am not knocking blackmagic switchers i am just saying what we use them for where better off with tricasters and we our getting the new 4k production cameras from BM
Great tutorial on the atem. It was very helpful to me. I always wanted to know how to do an interview live. I was talking to a family memeber one day. He suggested use skype to interview him. Your video was right on time. Thank You so much for helping me figure it out. Keep up the great work brother. 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Lon, you're the man for sure. Thanks for the set up advice. :)
If you are still looking for a scaler (or anyone else reading through the comments) the Extron RGB-HDMI 300 A RGB to HDMI Scaler is great. You can find them around $50 on eBay all the time and they have really granular control too.
Thanks for the vid. Helped me to decide how to run some streaming as well as a good switcher for front of house screens.
Thanks for the review! I have a Tricaster Studio and I'll hopefully be upgrading to the ATEM soon!
What video scaler did you end up going with? I'm considering getting this and a buddy has one but needs a scaler for 3 or 4 sources.
***** Hi I'm having an issue with Colorspacing with the gefen and TVS - (I think RED/Blue is switched @1080i)- Any tips on solving that would be amazing. Love your videos btw. Really helped us.
***** Thanks. I'm pretty sure that i tried that but will revisit.
THANKS FOR THE CLEAR EXPLANATION!!!! NICE I WILL BUY A SIMILAR BLACK MAGICK ATEM.
no, we are social tv. have a look to : ecocultura.tv. your explanation was very clear and now we can get this ATEM. this is a cheap and PRO way to have some cameras working simultaneeusly. we can take a rest with the long hours of editing. lets be in touch. i have some ideas about new programs sharing your videos.
hello , i have a question please help. black magic media express doesn´t recognize my atem production studio 4k, it says no device connected. i want to record the program out in my computer
Many thanks for the very informative video, just, goings through the process of making a kit purchasing
Lots of good stuff sir. Thank you for the information. I've had the ATEM on my grocery list and will start using it in April. It will help with live broadcasting sports here in the North East Bay with Commentaries Tim Fitzgerald and myself Tim Banks of Vallejo Sports.
Thanks Lon for sharing this video.
***** Okay I will,
Hello. a query when I install the Software, I do not have the STING and DVE options enabled in the program. Any recommendation? or specific version for this type of Switcher?. Currently I install versions 8.7.1, 8.8 and in both the enabled options do not appear.
this switcher do you have those options available in the program?
Great to know, thanks as always!
that is wonderfull.

next time see if u can use a mini tripod for the little camera in ur desk. I felt kinda dissy when u were moving it around
hello I have a BLACKMAGIC DESIGN ATEM TELEVISION STUDIO HD LIVE PRODUCTION SWITCHER. It has been a nightmare to connect. No just to put into my Laptop but also to input a new devise.
my question is. I have connected just 2 cameras and I have tried to connect one laptop by the HDMI input but i does not recognizance it. I have tried changed the resolution of the laptop, the input at the back but nothing. I when to setting but there in to any option to change from SDI to HDMI. So I am completely blocked. Could you help me with it please?
dude i love your toys and your basement.
Can I use animated lower 3rds with this system?
Nice. Thanks for sharing this great setup.
Thanks for the great review. So you can run the TV switcher into a Blackmagic shuttles HDMI and into the computer and stream with it?
Thank you very much for your response, I started to buy my setup by stages and part by part. Do you have any experience with the: Teradek - VidiU On-Camera Wireless Streaming Video Encoder; the Ninja2 Recorder for backing up HD Proress 4.2.2; or the Atomos - Connect H2S Converter with 2600mAh Battery. I'm also looking to find if the analog audio processed by the Behringer SRC2496 24-Bit/96 kHz A/D-D/A can also be adjusted for delay. Are you experiencing any delay?
Hi, I noticed that you use an Mac Book for your screen capture footage. I have a PC and when I plug the HDMI cord into the computer, nothing happens. Am I doing something wrong, or is the switcher only compatible with a Mac?
puedo usar cámaras que graben en 4k con el atem study
Hey Man, great video overview. Thanks for posting this!
Hi,
I'm having a problem with my system. From a day to another I have no audio signals on my ATEM Television Studio. There is any setup that I have to change? This is very weird because It has always worked until now. Can you help me?
Can you have one camera be the primary audio source? My thought is run all of the audio to your mixer, then mixer to camera. Let the camera convert the analog audio to digital and send back to the switcher. As long as audio doesn't follow video, and that camera can be assigned as the only audio source: you could eliminate the A/D converter? Great video by the way, I really enjoy Blackmagic products too.
very cool setup
1- greetings. whats video format is compatible to insert the device media player.?
2- Lower Thirds as I can put it is not using photoshop ?
***** thanks
which hdmi splitter are you using to get the atem to pickup the mac book pro? i try to capture my imac via hdmi on my capture card it it says hdmi protected.
***** I'm using a avermedia capture card it supports hdmi 720P 60fps and 1920x1080 30FPS in the future i'll be buying the 4k model to use for live dj events but for now i'm using the avermedia with a 5 port hdmi switch just wanted to show my imac live when i make music and it gives me a hdcp error.
Lon, we got the ATEM up & running thank you so much for your help. We did have a problem streaming due to the bandwidth.. My questions is can you stream from the same computer you have the ATEM set up on?
We had the ATEM switcher set up on a PC but we streamed form a Mac so we could use the BlackMagic intensity extreme card via thunderbolt to capture & recorded video. The intensity extreme was connected to the ATEM via HDMI. We were not able to capture and record onto the external hard drive.We are still working on that. We did of course have an external monitor connected to the ATEM for multi-view. Worked great!
***** Thanks you the Hyperdeck shuttle is on our top list priority.
Thanks again for your information. Greatly appreciated. If I may ask do you have a preference when it comes to streaming services? have you compare the ones available like Ustream, Livestream, RUclips streaming, Justintv, etc, or do you run your own server streaming?
I cannot get my ATEM Television to connect to my laptop to use the software which I cannot use the control panel. I use the cat 5 cable connected to the switcher to my macbook pro. I downloaded the latest software too and everything seems to be connect. Any advice?
One of my hdmi input does not work with any camera , any suggestions to get it working
Can I connect the switch to a laptop to work the software control or does it need a more powerful desktop? Whenever I try and stream live from a laptop I run into issues with CPU usage and have to do it a low resolution. Thanks.
With the ATEM TELEVISION STUDIO, you can't connect a switcher instead of software right?
Hey Lon..how do i get stereo audio into the atem television studio..i have the ultramatch pro from behringer, but seems iam getting mono on my audio settings in the television studio audio settings
muy buen video , bien explicado , te felicito por tu talento y gracias por compartir.
Thanks for the info Lon
if you would have to buy everything again. what would you change? would you buy the same things?
***** thank you for the reply. :-)
how do you solve the problem of interlacing?
i see that switch has online 1080i at blackmagic site.
do they relase new model or all the do is update the software of those devices?
i like progressive rather than interlacing
***** thxs
do you have the link to send me? or is it in the details of your video?
***** to make live events with progresive mode.
***** i email to B&H they told me they got the new ATEM from black magic that work with 4k and it does progressive. Have you thought about upgrading yours?
Hi Lon I bought a black magic atem switcher, every thing is perfect even the quality of the video is very good, but the problem that I have is when ever some body is using a walki talki the signal gets cut off video get breaks. Why is that.
Decimator HX scaler, bruv... again, excellent video! Thankyou
excellent video. tks for sharing.
That's pretty cool. So that Atem is the precursor of the Atem Mini Pro basically? Do you think you could still control that Item with an Atem mini via ethernet connection as controller? Also, is the HDMI only 1080i?
hey Lon...is it possible to get video from a non usb camera to skype...i have a blackmagic intensity shuttle, with thunderbolt and a canon xa25 camera and a macbook pro.?
Hi, if you want to connect to a windows Pc and not a MAC what do you use instead the Blackmagic ultra studio mini recorder?
Hey what can be done to integrate the JVC GV LS1 camera to the ATEM Tv Studio.
Have you ever tried to send the program stream to CamTwist and stream out via FMLE? That would eliminate the need for a second computer, wouldn't it?
Hey thanks for the response. So yes I do mainly stream to Livestream but that's kind of irrelevant. The main encoders I use, wether it's Wirecast Pro or Procaster are looking for an H.264 signal coming in through the USB port of my computer. Most basic webcams operate on an H.264 stream through USB as well. The encoder repurposes that for the CDN. I guess my follow up question is a what encoder are you using that acquires it's video from Thunderbolt and is it a big improvement in quality over using the switcher's H.264 output?
What scaler did you end up getting? I want to use my MacBook Pro LapTop with the Blackmagic Design ATEM Television Studio HD... The Resolutions are 1024 X 640, 1280 X 800, 1440 X 900, 1680 X 1050, 1920 X 1200. so not sure if I need a scaler to get it to 1920 X 1080 or 1280 X 720
Lon - I have a couple of other questions.. 1 is is the H.264 codec good to use to generate a high quality standard DVD or does it have to be a blu ray dvd. Second question is what specs do you need on the macbook. Does it have to have a high speed drive to record. 7200 ? or solid state drive. Memory, processor speed... any info would help.. thanks!
Lon, is it possible to attach a laptop to control the ATEM television studio without and ethernet port? I want to use a tiny laptop pc for the switching panel and none of them have ethernet so I'm stuck with a big old laptop that is cumbersome. I got an ethernet USB adaptor but it doesn't seem to work for the purpose of connecting the ATEM hardware.
Hi there, i am setting up a system like this, i have the same switch you have (atem) but i have a PCI card for out/input, (Decklink studio 2) but i just cant get it to work for streaming, will your setup work on that too?
Can you pull audio from one of the sources even if the inputs change. Like if someone is presenting on one camera but referring to different devices. Can you have the audio from one input present the whole time regardless of what input you switch to?
Hi, Thakns for the info. I'd like to know how to combine audio from a Focusrite Saffire Pro40 with the Atem Tv Studio. Do I have to plug the Saffire output into the Atem, or can they work connecting both into my iMac, just like if I were using software like wirecast? Thanks for the feedback.
I seem to be losing something in translation. I'm not talking about streaming directly from the ATEM. I'm talking about connecting the ATEM's output directly to an encoder like say Wirecast. If I am doing a live webcast using Wirecast as my encoder, I would connect my ATEM to my encoding computer (running Wirecast) using the USB/H.264 output. Last I checked, Black Magic had not enabled the thunderbolt out on the ATEM .In your vid you are looping through your Hyperdeck to get a thunderbolt connection into your laptop. I go direct from ATEM to Laptop encoder (using USB). I assume Wirecast 5 can acquire video from the Thunderbolt port. My final question since I've now forgotten what my original was,what encoder are you using that is acquiring the video via Thunderbolt, and is it overly processor intensive in compressing that full bandwidth video down to several streams where the H.264 feed gives me a very efficient, compressable signal that I can encode to 3 different bitrates as well as record locally and it still looks great and gives me a good amount of cpu overhead. Thanks.
Is there a way to use the intensity extreme if you don't have thunderbolt port? I'm trying to figure out how to stream live and record at the same time.
Kudos to you! with 2 jobs and a family... that is passion! Great setup, Can you expand about your rack mounting solution and what kind of monitors are you using for preview?
It is posible tu use it with Wirecast software or which is the best option for a 4 HDMI input capture card?
Have you reviewed the in-ear "bone" microphones? They mount in the ear, translate the vibrations from the bones of your ear into an electrical signal, then feed that directly to whatever you are recording/broadcasting to. It completely eliminates all other sounds as it only picks up the sounds you are making with your voice.
hey i want to make streamings with calls and stuff kind of news chanel i have the ATEM but i dont know realy how to use it and if i will get audio its confusing
need help any video capture you recommend my imac don't have a thunderbolt port im using wirecast
Has there been any kind of an update that allows this to do 1080P? I was really excited about this and about to buy it and then found out it doesn't do 1080P? 1080i is the stoneage, so I'm really hoping there's been some kind of update (besides the 4K switcher for $700 more)?
It's amazing overview. Thank you so much :)
Hi where did you get the box where you mounted the ATEM and the Ultra match pro? thanks
Great job.
Two last questions, I promise. Do you know if you can use an iPad to record the Skype calls? I know Apple has an HDMI to Lightning connector. However, I am not sure if you can mirror to the ATEM.
Lastly, what CODEC should I use to record? I am going to use Final Cut Pro.
Thanks!
Good day Lon!!, I have just recently seen a problem with my ATEM TELEVISION STUDIO SWITCHER, all my SDI slots are not working, I just can't understand that, please if you have any idea or might have come across such situation, how can it be fixed or what must I do to get this switcher work again...... All HDMI's are working perfectly with the exception of my SDI SLOTS.
Using the HDMI camera. How long of a HDMI cable can you run?
hi Lon, what cables do you recommend for the full HD Studio ? I have SONY HVR-Z1E Cameras, then converted with the Analog to Digital converter.
Hello Lon. I have a question. ATEM and SRC2496 connects with XLR Female to BNC cable (www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/717631-REG/Comprehensive_XLRJ_BP_3B_XLR_Female_to_BNC.html). Or have to buy anything? Thank you.
Hi Lon, I Am Trying To Get Audio Into My ATEM Television Studio Switcher....What Equipment Do I Need To Convert The Signal coming out of The Behringer Ultramatch into the aes/ebu format/connection?
oh ok so there is a bnc output on the behringer?
Hey Lon, great video.. thank you! I have just some stupid questions to be sure I got everythig.
- I need to make a live streaming on RUclips through WireCast 5;
- I have 2 Cameras (1 Canon EOS 600D and 1 Nikon D7000);
- I'm going to buy 1 ATEM television Studio and 1 INTENSITY Shuttle or Extreme;
So, in order to stream live on RUclips I have to: (and here's the question) :)
1) Connect the 2 cameras to ATEM via HDMI
2) Connect the ATEM to INTENSITY via HDMI
3) Connect the INTENSITY to my IMAC via Thunderbolt
... Then I open WireCast and I'll be able to use the 2 cameras and setup the youTube stream
Is it correct everything correct, or am I missing something?
(I just did a couple of live streaming on RUclips in the past using wriest and the internal imac camera or a USB one, so it was easier to setup).. Now I need to use 2 external camera like I mentioned and it's little bit harder.
Thanks for clarifying my doubts and congrats again for your videos.
thanks a lot for taking time out to do this. I have issues connecting my camera to the Atem, i changed from diff frame rates and outputs 1080i, 1080p and all but still nothing is showing on the Atem. any idea what else I need to do please ?
Is there a way to use ATEM output as a webcam on OsX for stream apps like OBS
Thanks Man this exact what have been looking for you are genius, SUB for you
Hi Lon, thanks for your channel. I'm looking to do the same thing you're doing with the ATEM, that is, using the Canon HF cameras you feature. My question: Do the cameras have to be in record mode to make the connection to the ATEM happen, or can they be in "non-record" or pause mode (or just connected). My Canon HF-G20, if not in record mode, goes into "store demo" mode if left unattended. So, typically, I don't want to record on the camcorders, just use them as cameras. Is this possible?
Our team from a non profit organization is thinking about buying a black magic television studio for livestreaming multicam . We did a lot of research. It almost have everything we need. The only thing that is missing is a good video player for pre-recorded videos. Can you tell us how you set your pc correctly so you can put your pc signal in to the bm television studio. An other question, Do you know if it is possible to put on a media player like an apple tv? I hope you can anser my questions.
Lon, had a question about your setup. what camera's do you use with the ATEM switch.
Lon brilliant information and well explained. Can I ask what way are you bringing the audio from the mixer via the digital converter on coaxial just on the screen shot camera 1 , 2 and 3 had audio on it ....
Thanks also does this unit have a wave form monitoring feature and vector scope feature
hello dear friend. Do you currently use a camcorder under 400$. Best regards. I need to used the ATEM TVS on 720p
Is there a way that I could record all feeds from all cameras that go into the switcher? I understand the Hyperdeck only records the "live" feed that comes out of the switcher?
***** Thanks! How about if we used something like a Tricaster 40? Could we still not record the other feeds on it besides the "Program" one?
can these softwares be supported on windows i see everyone using too much mac
I am considering purchasing the Roland VR-4EX and I read a review that the Blackmagic ATEM was a better purchase. From what I have seen from you review, the only advantage that the Blackmagic has is the ability to record HD. It appears that you had to purchase a lot of additional equipment to do the same thing that the Roland does (which brought the overall price way above $1000 and your still limited with what the switcher can do.
We are currently using both the Behringer SRC2496 and the ATEM Television studio switcher to do broadcasts in our college studio. What is the best way to get audio from our audio board with a mono XLR output, into the Behringer system and into our videos through the blackmagic box? We would really appreciate the help!
That's awesome, thank you very much for replying!
i have a problem with my BLACK MAGIC TELEVISION STUDIO.the main point is that i cant see the camera on the multi view display.the camera we have are CANON XL 2 and SONY PD 175 these camera do not have HDMI all its has is SDi outputs.please help me the BM TVS is becoming useless .
So, those cameras' HDMI outputs operate in the YUV colorspace?? I'm having trouble finding the right camera because everything is RGB, and as you know, the ATEM TVS only operates in YUV. Or does it? I'm looking at a Canon HF R400 right now. What is the model of the sony camera you had in your hand the whole time? Help!! Any recommendations for camera would be greatly appreciated. I need something with an audio input, because like you said at the end, I'm going to run sound to the camera first, and then send the audio and video signal through the camera's HDMI.
***** Do you think that the HF R300 would work? Side note: don't you find it immensely irritating that the TVS only operates in YUV? It seems that it greatly limits the camera and device options you can hook up to it. I guess I have one more question to bug you with: have you ever had HDMI signal loss from any of your devices?
Blackmagic also makes the Production Studio 4k - which has XLR inputs and outputs for audio. Would you get the Production Studio over the Television Studio for the better audio capabilities if you didn't mind paying the extra money?
What are DVE features - forgive me I am new to this stuff?
Thank you sir , excellent channel !
Please tell me how do you sync you voice with audio im like 2 seconds behind please help!!!!!! Blessings and Thanks in advance
Nice video...thanks for sharing.
I need advice on setting up for an upcoming shoot for a week of presentations at a camp meeting. I plan on using the blackmagic television studio switcher and recording to disk. Budget right now only allows for the blackmagic switcher. I need help to make sure that I can record multiple cameras, intro/outro graphic(s), powerpoint, possible videoblocks short clips, and then have it all recorded to my laptop in which I will then export the finished production to youtube and an external drive.
My concern is making sure the live production can be completed and exported to youtube and an external hard drive without additional pieces of hardware/software. Can you please advise on this?
Lon, with this setup (ATEM TV studio and Intensity Extreme), can you use the built in software to control the camera outputs and use the free version of Wirecast to live stream multiple cameras? I assume so, since you can output 1 stream to Wirecast. Thanks!
Hey Lon,
I noticed you've connected your macbook pro to the ATEM like you would a camera, how did you do that? My Macbook pro doesn't have an HDMI connection, only a thunderbolt one. What would you recommend to make this work? Also will I need to change the monitor setting of the computer to match the resolution of the ATEM?
Thank you!
***** Thank you for this quick reply, also any chance I could use the worlclock on the SRC2496 to make sure the Audio and video stays synced throughout long recordings?
the black magic Micro Studio Camera function with livestream tv?
I am considering purchasing the Roland VR-4EX and I read a review that the Blackmagic ATEM was a better purchase.

It appears that you had to purchase a lot of additional equipment to do the same thing that the Roland does (which brought the overall price way above $1000 and your still limited with what the switcher can do. Please give me your thoughts.
Great video, thanks - One question, why do you need the thunderbolt? Cant you just plug the ATEM into your Computer (HDMI/USB), then use your streaming software to upload?
Hi. Great Video. Your Setup is quite complicated. I think that your live would be much more easy with an atem 1m/e switcher!
