[@chrisgrove569]

Thank you for this great video. This helped me so much.

[@MikesWorld1]

Glad it helped!

Good video Mike. I purchased the app after watching Runway DFWs channel where he was testing it out. I have tried it with the J5Create JVA06 dual capture card and 2 camcorders. It seems to work well. I have had issues with one webcam connected to a USB OTG cable although another worked fine.

[@MikesWorld1]

Glad it’s working out. I can’t get audio after the most recent round of updates.

[@crosswhite17]

​@@MikesWorld1Audio seems to work on mine. Maybe it's the camcorder, I have a couple of Sony CX250's that only pass audio through when playing back video. My CX450 does pass audio through though.

Greetings. I have a Vixia HF G70 camera. I set up the app and I don't have an image. If I connect my laptop I can see the screen in the app but when I connect the camera I cannot see the image. What could it be

[@hoffman9409]

Any solution for wireless streaming with a Sony camera ?

[@jeremykrumwiede6699]

Hey Mike, I have used this app for the last few months to stream my kids lacrosse games. In every game there seems to be moments where footage is missing. It is as if the stream jumped 15 seconds forward and I miss moments of the game. Have you ever had this issue? Not sure if it is a setting or if maybe data dropped. Thanks for the great video reviews on this.

[@MikesWorld1]

Sounds like a data buffering issue. I have not experienced that personally.

[@EazyDpodcast]

Hi Mike, I'm having an issue with the audio. When I'm live streaming or recording i don't get any audio. Please help. Thanks

[@TheWolfster001]

My camera is similar to yours, mine is a cheap one I paid $30.00 on amazon, and I'm using a cheap 8" android tablet, I have tried using so many apps, nothing works, Do I have to have the HDMI Video Capture adaptor to make it work?? I already had ton's of cables from HDMI adaptors for everything.. The only thing I don't have is that "HDMI Video Capture adaptor" I'm just now trying to get my KZbin Channel up and going, I only do down shots, I am doing How to Paracord Craft Tutorials and a monitor is a must for me.. Any other advice would be great.. Thank you for sharing...

[@MikesWorld1]

You have to have the hdmi capture card for this to work. If you are just starting out, don’t overlook audio. You need good clean audio in your videos.

Hello, how many seconds of delay are there during a stram? thx you

[@MikesWorld1]

Depends on the bitrate in setup. Most stream delays are between 10-30 seconds.

[@kirankomaravolu1104]

Does this app support a web overlay? Like a scorecard ticker?

[@MikesWorld1]

No, unfortunately it does not.

[@teamthunder8594]

Hey Mike, I am trying to livestream a helmet camera to tiktok... do you have any advice?

[@MikesWorld1]

What is the model of the camera? Once I see the specs I can see what the options are.

[@teamthunder8594]

@@MikesWorld1 I have a gopro 10. Thanks!

[@guymccort8735]

Hey Mike, I got everything set up. It says it's live pushing, but not showing up on my Facebook page. I entered all the url and streamkey. Like I said it says live pushing but I can't find to where? Any help would be great

[@MikesWorld1]

I only use this with KZbin. I never use Facebook. I know on KZbin, you have to have your KZbin settings so that auto start and auto stop are enabled. If they aren’t, you are pushing to KZbin but then have to go on a desktop or laptop and log into KZbin to start the stream. I’m guessing there is something similar with Facebook and your settings are set up so you have to start and stop the stream in Facebook.

[@axisproductionsltd]

I like it. But how do I charge phone while streaming.

[@MikesWorld1]

You'll need a USB-C splitter such as this: amzn.to/3vMaaN7

[@axisproductionsltd]

Can you show how this would be set up.

[@rajeshgsnet]

Does this tab support obs studio?

[@MikesWorld1]

Not directly. However, you can set up the rtmp stream to VLC and then import the VLC stream to OBS
