    Great videos!
    BTW - Just so you know - You need to configure Internet Protocol 4, not 6. As your laptop and most of the majority of users will be using P 4. I doubt any PTZ cameras out there support Internet Protocol 6. Hope this helps.

    Hi Monte,
    Great channel, its really been helping me out alot with my camera network but am having a few issues pulling up my network cameras in OBS as I see you have in this video without a Atem Mini switcher.
    Also am considering getting an Atem Mini Pro, I see you connected yours in this video without connecting any HDMI cables, will that setup allow me to operate my cameras on the network?
    Hoping you can help me.

    • @MonteWeaverofficial

      This video was solely focused on networking the cameras. My setup when I use the cameras in a livestreaming environment, I use my ATEM Mini Extreme pro all the time. You'll see it a lot on the more recent videos on the channel.

    I’m new to all of this. Trying to get my church set up so I’m learning as much as I can, so I hope my question is not silly. But do I also need to add a stream switcher to the poe switch and then add the ptz cameras to the video switcher? Or do the ptz cameras and the video switcher go on the poe switch

    • @MonteWeaverofficial
      @MonteWeaverofficial  2 месяца назад

      You don't need a POE switch, but it is a benefit if you want to place all your cameras on the network and/or power them without using a DC power supply. In order for your production team to switch between different cameras, you would need a video switcher.

    So if I have a multiple PoE to connect my PTZ CAMERAS, no need to connect them in an OUTLET with their own power cables?
    That's awesome.
    What about the ATEM MINI, does it neet to connect to an outlet or just to the PoE?

      To use your PTZ cameras with an ATEM, you’ll still need to connect to the ATEM with HDMI.

      The ATEM Mini is a video switcher device. It allows you to connect cameras to it via HDMI - To switch cameras, you just select the camera number associated with the camera connected to that specific HDMI port.

    Hi, thank you for your video. Is there a way to bring the PoE power and data wireless to the PTZ cameras? I mean a wifi ethernet that I can plug into the camera in its ethernet port and that send and receive the ethernet signal with PoE wireless from the other side of the room where there is the other sender of the PoE I connect into the switch. Without using a 30-50 metres of ethernet cable. Is there a way to do that? Thank you

    • @MonteWeaverofficial

      Wi-Fi Ethernet? - POE is Power Over Ethernet so you’ll need a switch that is capable of powering the camera if you want to use POE

    I now manage multiple video sources within OBS Studio, or by using NDI Studio Monitor, so what advantage would having an ATEM mini be? Is that really necessary ?

    Crucial question, I'm new to this.
    Can all this configuration be done offline? That is, I don't need to be connected to an internet network and only do it within a local network using nothing more than the POE switch?
    I want to do this configuration in rural areas where there is no internet connection, either wifi or Ethernet network, but I am interested in using the POE protocol for its practicality.
    Is that possible? The video would only be recorded locally using a capture device such as OBS.
    Another question, can I use one controller and use different PTZ cameras of different brands or do I need to have the cameras of the same brand as the controller?
    Thank you very much, I hope you can help me.

    • @MonteWeaverofficial
      @MonteWeaverofficial  8 месяцев назад

      The purpose of the ATEM is to receive a video signal from your camera via HDMI. So I’m not sure what you are specifically asking as the ATEM has nothing to do with sending a video signal via your network.

    • @JasonAlexis
      @JasonAlexis 8 месяцев назад +1

      @@MonteWeaverofficial Thanks for replying. If I have a PTZ camera that is PoE enabled, I can use a PoE swtich to power that camera. I cam also use a PTZ controller to send video to that camera. Especially if they are on the same switcher. I can also connect my ATEM mini to the same switcher where that can talk with the network. I watched another video by @AjaytheCEO partially (after this one) where I believe it's possible. In the ATEM mini camera software, you should be able to set each camera slot the digital camera feed as it's being communicated in the network. That's where I am not sure. My ideal setup as I understand it so far is I can just use a network cable to power, control and get the videos from each camera that is several feet away without having to run an HDMI or HDMI/Ethernet converter option to get the video as well.

      You can use a DHCP server. Home routers have that built in. The router doesn’t need to be connected to the internet to be able to hand out IP addresses. You can also configure the DHCP reservation for the cameras and controller to always get the same IP address every time..

      All PTZ cameras are different and I don't know which camera you have. I would 1st go to the manufacturer website or reference your user manual and check for the ip address. Another way for some cameras is to plug in your camera into a monitor source and reboot the camera and some show the ip address of the camera. A 3rd way to to do a hard-reset, (again you will need to reference your manual to see how to do this) to change the ip address back to the default ip address of the camera.
