      It is frustrating there are no tutorials on how to get a script to show up on my Elgato Prompter. I'm not understanding how to get the camera hub to show the script as big as I'm seeing in this video or scrolling itself.

    Your presentation is really smooth and professional. I saw on another video that this functions like a separate monitor for your computer making it more versatile than you might think. I got a small taste of that in the beginning where you briefly ran through some things you can use the prompter for but as a newbie to this I would have liked it if you slowed down just a little to explain what you were showing. But a wonderful video and I am likely to buy one. Just doing a little more research because this is really just for my hobby and has zero professional use.. as long as I'll use it I think it will be good but I sometimes buy gadgets and they just collect dust.

    Love your videos on this & am excited by the product. In fact I gleefully ditched my Glide Gear last weekend! I was even OK being on the backorder list. But then I got an email from Elgato that said they're charging my card now. 😤 And then the shipping dates started slipping later and later. Sorry, not sorry, but I cancelled that order. I'll get one when they're in stock and ready to ship. I suspect it will be about the same time frame. And if not, ok - no productions from my studio will suffer while waiting. This is a 'nice to have' item, not a 'must have' for my studio.

  • @punknugget561
    @punknugget561 Год назад +1

    With all the money that Elgato is charging you, they should at least have an Auto-Prompting feature that ONLY scrolls as you're speaking the words. I'll just continue using my iPhone app that can perform that feature. Thanks for the video. At least it helped me to understand that it should have been the FIRST KEY FEATURE that they offered. When they do offer that later down road, I'm sure they'll be some of these units on eBay that'll I'll be able to pick up used or like new for around $175-$195. Who knows, maybe a bit less.

    I know you're supposed to look around a little while you're reading off a prompter so that you look more natural on camera but doing it too much makes you look like you're avoiding the camera (or your audience) which feels even less natural than reading off the prompter.

    Hi Luria! On Elgato's homepage, it says that the promter is not compatible with the kit lens E PZ 16-50mm F3.5-5.6 OSS of my Sony ZV-E10 camera... can it be solved? I would love to use this prompter!😅

    • @LiveStreamingPros
      @LiveStreamingPros  9 месяцев назад

      I believe the reason they say that is likely for ANY Zoom lens. Because this prompter attaches TO the lens, when it zooms (and often they zoom when powering up...) it's causing the lens and the prompter to move at the same time. If you have a zoom lens, and don't want to get a different one, I'd recommend attaching the prompter only when using it, after you power everything on. Kinda annoying, but...

    I have a M2 Mac mini with two monitors connected by thunderbolt and HDMI. Will the display for the prompter not work right as a "third" monitor with my Mac since apple technically listed the max display output as two? I had an HDMI splitter before but it kept on messing up when I would turn on my camera so I had to switch it to a direct plug in for both monitors to get the best use with no issues. Would hate to lose a monitor when I use the camera or use a splitter again and have issues with my Mac not talking the right way

      It would probably take some hacking in order to get the angle right, but really the bigger issue is the movement that you get with a gimbal, which would end up banging against the sides and giving your audience a view of the side of the teleprompter instead of what you want them to see.

    This is very insightful. Honestly, I was considering this for our studio live stream setup. It's the best option out there, but unfortunately, the distance might be difficult to manage, plus the need for converters, such as VGA and HDMI. Hopefully, they will make a 12-inch version in the future with similar features, either with SDI input or HDMI. I know the cost won't be low, but this is the best one out there for a budget-friendly kit

So which prompter software can be used for this to increase it's versatility? Or was that a carrot on a stick to watch another video of yours?
