Play your Nintendo Switch using your iPad - CAMO Studio

[@LearningandTechnology]

You will need a USB video INPUT adapter - Here is the Capture Card I use to connect amzn.to/4eVtMA9

[@Zero]

Finally, can stream my mobile games from iphone to twitch with just my ipad. No longer will I need my MacBook or gaming desktop. Honestly impressed here and really think this will open up a path for more streamers.

[@LearningandTechnology]

It’s quite impressive. I tested it by taking my iPad and iPhone to a park. I was able to live stream with just those two devices. Although, I would add audio as well.

[@Zero]

@@Giovanni_Ihman I own a m2 air but you don’t need anything special to stream your iPhone or iPad to MacBook. Just connect lighting or usb c cable to iPad to MacBook and open QuickTime Player

Nice now I can finally play my switch on the go

[@LearningandTechnology]

Haha! At long last! Seriously though - it is actually a bit of a nicer experience to get that extra screen space. I was playing some RPGs and it really was quite nice. To be honest - the Switch was just a demo of the software - stay tuned for some other, maybe more practical, demos.

[@LearningandTechnology]

The new @camoapp is absolutely game-changing. I’ve been impressed by CAMO Studio as a tool for teaching and learning, but the Livestream and iPad features of the Studio have really amazed me. This video on using it with my Switch is just the tip of the iceberg - I’m working on a longer video and keep finding more cool things about it.

When I turn off camera 2 there’s a circle that stays on the screen. Is there a way to remove it?

Yes - in the video, when I show the custom template it’s to remove the circle. It’s right after the part when you turn Camera 2 off.

Can you link a capture card that has a lightning cable because my iPad does not use USBC.

[@Ken-gs7tm]

Hi, is it possible to connect a USB-C to HDMI instead of using the nintendo dock to connect to the capture card?

[@LearningandTechnology]

That is a very good question. Amazon delivers the cable to me tomorrow. I will test and answer.

[@Ken-gs7tm]

thank you 😊

[@LearningandTechnology]

@@Ken-gs7tm no worries - I hope it works because then I might be able to use it with the Switch lite.

[@Ken-gs7tm]

Hi, did it manage to work?

[@LearningandTechnology]

@@Ken-gs7tm not yet. I’ve only tried it on a Switch and it won’t work (I think it’s because the Switch needs the power for HDMI and can’t do it off the battery alone - which is why it needs the dock). I’m going to try to find some other devices that have HDMI out via USB-C I also have a Switch Lite to try, but suspect it will not work because of the power required.

[@KoshConnection]

Hello I would like to ask, I would like to stream my games from switch via the ipad, but my problem is that i cant use my audio and microphone in tandem. When i plug in my external mic i lose my game audio. is there a fix to this?

I’m not too sure how to stream both audio sources - I’ll take a look and see what I can figure out.

It sadly won’t. The USB hubs are HDMI out. The capture cards are quite reasonable in cost though. I linked one in the description

You don’t require Internet - just the CAMO Studio software (free) and the Capture card hardware (quite inexpensive)

[@Alnero80]

@@muhammadgamon8968 you will need to see if CAMO Studio will run on your iPad first. If it does run - then the adapter should allow you to pull the signal.

i have a question, is there any way to fix this? :( i got mine a month or less ago, and it took a while to set up as it wouldn't be recognized, but it would work after a bit. now mine doesn't even work, camo studio or any other app doesn't recognize my capture card. i got every single thing, and did the right steps, but now my switch isn't recognized at all and camo studio won't let me switch the external video source from none to capture card, and others have had the same problem too please help :(

[@LearningandTechnology]

The best solution might be to uninstall and reinstall CAMO - the card and setup have been working for me for a long time. So I’m not sure what the issue might be.

[@jordan.mp4302]

i thought this was dumb but this is great for live streaming

That’s actually the main use-case. It’s designed for streaming and works very well. I also use it for a larger screen to play when I don’t have a TV handy.

Hi. When i create a new scene. It still has the second camera inside the layers! What can i do?:)

It’s cool but it’s not really great. It’s not portable bc you need everything with hdmi and the capture card so the latency is super high. Now if Apple actually made the software able to have output and input using usb c to usb c would be pretty sick

[@LearningandTechnology]

The latency is actually quite good with CAMO - it’s fast. unfortunately, with the Switch- the docking station is needed (this won’t work in a Lite) It’s not really something I would consider “portable” (for that I just use the Switch screen) It’s a nice setup when I’m at my desk or dining room table.

Hi! I seem to be having issues connecting any external mic to Camo without horrible feedback or no sound at all. Any tips?

[@LearningandTechnology]

For feedback - in the audio settings you need to make sure “send to speaker” is deselected. Also, the last audio device plugged in is the default. So sometimes unplugging and replugging does the trick.

[@neffybear]

@@LearningandTechnology yeah I don’t know! I tested multiple different setups; usb mic, XLRs into 2 different interfaces, tried changing the settings in app, deleting it and redownloading it but now NO sound goes through but the app is acknowledging the external mic is at least plugged in? I’m not sure if it’s a glitch or a bug or something. Because when I just jump into Voice Memos to test that the equipment still works, it sounds perfectly normal. Goes through the mic no problem. But specifically camo is just rejecting the sound for some reason.
