The most structured and detailed tutorial i ca across until now. Thank you very much!

[@mj6962]

Wow I have to say that I am very impressed. I started in life television at a station when I was 15. For my BA in MASS Comm. and worked for CNN in the newsroom at Headquarters in Atlanta for a while, as well as TBN, from every production job, every station job, then finally becoming the GM. You’re traitor set up is very “Sturdy” and complete. You don’t need extra equipment when you have good production tools like this. Thanks for the tour!

[@jrmvideo]

Wow! Thank you so much! Especially coming from someone with so much experience. Thanks!!

[@lawadelante2813]

Thanks for sharing sky is the limit wishing you tons of success.

[@jrmvideo]

Thank you!

[@themanleychannel]

This is our goal!!! Thanks for sharing.

[@consciouskeelanvlogs931]

you guys killed it! thanks so much

[@djnitinmoradabaddj7378]

Thanks for all of your tips! I've just been getting into producing myself for my artists and mannnnn. It's like science lmao. Thanks a ton!

[@princearthur4946]

Very nice!

[@ripkenley]

Great job guys! I’ve been doing this for a while and this is a great starting point. I think is something you will be able to grow. One day you will look back on this and think, “Remember when we built that first little trailer?”

[@jrmvideo]

Thank you!! We hope so haha!

[@BroadcastBuddyTV]

What a great setup!

[@jrmvideo]

Thank you!! We've been following along with your new trailer build. Congrats!! I think we both are located in the same Western PA area? We should met up some day!

[@aninditasrivastava8520]

TNice tutorialS WAS SOOOOOO HELPFUL!!

[@123austeja]

It's working thanks my friend

[@CineMilledUSA]

Nice setup guys!

[@georgebagundoljr4773]

TNice tutorials was a very informative video. You made soft soft soft one hundred tis easier! Thanks alot

[@joshhaughwout3637]

This is inspirational for me. I’ve really been wanting to start a production trailer for all of the high schools in the district I live in. Can you discuss more the financials, not the numbers, but more of how you sell your services so that it’s appealing to schools. I can put together the tech, it’s the sales side I need help with.

[@jrmvideo]

Hey Josh, Thanks for you comment! We're trying to find the time to record weekly info videos like this and I noted your request down. It definitely can be tough selling the broadcast services and I'd be more than happy to do a video going over some helpful tips. Stay tuned!

[@ikhonofilms]

😮wow great job guys I also need a 3 x 8 Production Studio Mobile Trailer

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Nice 👍🏽

[@LawrenceKaneshiro]

This is CRAZY AWSOME guys!!!!! Questions: To where and how do you output your stream? You mentioned in the video that you use Internet from the location you are broadcasting from. Do you use that network to stream to the web? Do you bring your own Internet? Curious about the cameras. The Panasonics are human operated? Is that "robocam" capable of keeping up with the action? Sorry lot's of questions. But this little setup is phenomenal in it's simplicity. Love what you guys did. Too bad you are not in New Mexico I am a retired network admin. and an old photographer and love this kind of stuff.

[@jrmvideo]

Thank you! Our clients mainly want the stream on KZbin so that's we mainly stream to. 99% of the time we are using house internet. There have been a few occasions where we had to broadcast off of a cellular hotspot. The Panasonics have operators. The PTZ is mainly used for crowd shots and other things we can quickly set presets for. Don't really use it much for action. Thanks for watching!

[@andydelle4509]

Neat, I like it. I would suggest you put that RPi in a case. There are a plethora of cases available real cheap.

[@TVJAY]

Can you share the raspberry Pi program/script for clock data? I have been trying to do something similar but can't get it to work.

[@jrmvideo]

We finally released the video on our scoreboard setup. Check it out here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/moqwgHaCYq18bZI

[@evanbrenelus3835]

Great setup! What is the fiber breakout box that you use in the trailer and venue?

[@avdude4654]

First of all Id like to say congratulations! you guys look like your having a blast doing what you love, and that's great to see! What is that cool little fiber breakout system you got going on there?

[@jrmvideo]

Thank you! We sure do :) That's a fiber cassette breakout. LC to MTP

[@gwillacey]

Can you guys do a step by step video on how you connect the cameras to the truck with the fiber?

[@l.j.crandell5764]

Very nice. You guys did an awesome job!! I am curious about the raspberry PI interface. How does that work exactly? Thanks, LJ

[@tedz2000]

I take it you guys have a total of 6 atem studio converter on at both ends with cameras and at the switch.

[@jrmvideo]

We have 1 Blackmagic ATEM Studio Converter and 4 ATEM Camera Converters

[@vidkid1067]

Coming back to this video because I find it so interesting. How are your headsets set up to allow you to also talk and hear the intercom. Is this toggled anywhere?

[@jrmvideo]

The microphone goes through the AUX output on the soundboard. That way I can mix other channels to the headsets

[@pauljohnson4590]

A question about the trailer itself, not the contents. With one axle, does that put a huge amount of weight on the towbar? Here in the UK, our vehicles we would use for towing are smaller than the US ones - I guess we see lots of Range Rovers and 4x4 pickups, but nothing huge. Does the weight cause any issues?

[@jrmvideo]

Honestly, I don't ever have any issues towing. We have a pickup with a tow package. (don't even feel the trailer behind us) I've never gotten the trailer weighed but if I were to guess, we're probably between 2,500-3,000lbs. The tongue weight doesn't ever seem to be a problem either. 2 of us can actually lift the tongue up if we have to fine tune placement.

[@jayhouslander3969]

What type of Wireless Robotic IP Camera do you use love the tour starting to build ours

[@jrmvideo]

We use the AViPAS IP Camera

[@AstorProd]

Hey guys, just wondering if you'd ever consider sharing the program you created for the pi to convert the daktronics data to scores? That's amazing that you created the program!

[@jrmvideo]

We've been asked that a lot. We just don't want to be responsible for customer support. Honestly, we've switched away from that program as we use a SportsZcast now. I'd look into that device.

[@Jimmy_Jones]

Looks a lot easier to use than Everyday Astronaut's livestreaming rocket launch van.

[@Maddawg9255]

yes

[@janoudman2695]

I hope you have a lot of stuff that you keep on the other side while driving, because it looks like you have a weight distribution problem. When driving faster you will find out that the weight will pull your trailer to sway left and right up to the point that your car and trailer crash.

[@jrmvideo]

This has been a big concern for us but yes, when traveling we usually put equipment along the right side wall. Sand bags, cable spools etc. We've been up to 70mph on the highway and knock on wood haven't had any swaying issues...yet.

[@dennismcconnell7057]

It seems like most of the weight is on one side of the trailer. Does this cause any problems while towing?

[@jrmvideo]

Not yet. We've been 70mph on the highway and I haven't noticed any swaying. When traveling, I will put sandbags and other heavy equipment on the right side wall to help with weight.

[@zackfogle3690]

Any chance we could get a video going more in depth on the raspberry with the Daktronics?

[@jrmvideo]

Yeah! We'll make something in August when we are doing our football setup!

[@jrmvideo]

Hey Zach, we finally released the video on our scoreboard setup. Check it out here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/moqwgHaCYq18bZI

[@rotnederasajib5505]

everytNice tutorialng, I really would pay for a webclass

[@BytownDigitalSolutons]

What is the total weight of the trailer, including the trailer, because I am looking to build one? I am looking at using a Ford Transit Connect that can tow up to 2000 pounds or do I need something with more towing capabilities?

[@jrmvideo]

We've never had the trailer weighed but if I were to guess, I'd say right about or less than 2,000lbs. Two people can lift the trailer by the tongue so it's not extremely heavy.

[@tedz2000]

What type of intercom system u guys are using Atem.?

[@jrmvideo]

At the time this video was filmed, yes ATEM system. Now we've switched to Unity Intercom. Intercom is all over IP and completely wireless.

[@vidkid1067]

I would like to know more about how you do graphics

[@jrmvideo]

Graphics our all done within OBS. We make the png, jpgs and mp4s. Add them into the specific scene. (Pregame, halftime, program, postgame, etc) We used to use X Keys to control the graphics but have since upgraded to an Elgato StreamDeck.

[@anonomas7123]

how do you access the back of your equipment rack?

[@jrmvideo]

You didn't haha. We upgraded to an actual server rack due to this reason. New video in the making!

[@mahmoudlawendy6029]

Well lockdown started with Blender but since my laptop can't handle it, I've relocated

[@automaticfilms4007]

how do you guys run replay? Is it only off one camera?

[@jrmvideo]

At the time of this video, yes. We had one camera dedicated to just replays. We've since upgraded to have 4 replay capable cameras.

[@mmdvideo3263]

@@jrmvideo Awesome, thanks. What system are you now running for replay? We have a tricaster which we are building into a 14'x7' trailer and collecting as much info as we can from people like you who have successfully pulled it off. Thanks for making and posting this video. It's very helpful!

[@jrmvideo]

@@mmdvideo3263 We are currently using the Newtek 3Play. It's the older model but it does great. 4 inputs and 2 outputs. So far it's probably my favorite addition in upgrades. Good luck with your build!

[@tedz2000]

How are you doing the instant replay

[@jrmvideo]

That's the DataVideo HDR10 Instant Replay. We now use the Newtek 3Play system. Check our recent trailer tour to see that in action.

[@willemcbothavideos]

What replay system do you use

[@jrmvideo]

At the time this video was made, we were using the DataVideo HDR-10. It's just a single SDI input. But since then, we've gotten a Newtek 3PLAY. We used that for basketball season and it was such a big upgrade.

[@willemcbothavideos]

@@jrmvideo cool sounds nice we use vmix for replay

[@dbovideo1]

Funny question. Lol did somebody actually score 255??

[@jrmvideo]

No haha. Just Ryan messing around. Although that would be crazy haha
