Take Mobile Multicam Livestreaming to the Next Level with YoloBox Pro

Livestreaming is fun, but sometimes the setup can be overwhelming. The YoloBox Pro is ultra portable and lets you create multicam streams and recordings, so lets see how well it performs in a real-world workflow!
As mentioned in the video YoloBox sent the Pro to me for free, but there's no commitment on my part to make a video. I've had a great experience using it and I think it's an awesome upgrade over the original, so I was excited to talk about it.

Episode 268: Multicam Livestreaming Unleashed! YoloBox Pro Review

[@frankfengzhu]

Even that I have watched a ton of YoloBox/Pro videos(some for multiple times), this is by far my favorite and the most enjoyable one! Thank you Tom!

[@tombuck]

Woo hoo! I'm so happy to hear that! 🙌

[@GuilDormeus]

Yup! Copy paste what he said. Great in-depth video. Thank you

[@livestream360camspinflipbo6]

is there wonderful video for yolobox original?

[@nvaudio]

This KZbin channel is an amazing find, especially in this new Covid era where everybody has had to become a Zoom and livestreaming expert. Being able to take your livestreaming to the next level with multi-cam, wireless (with Hollyland Mars gear) , battery operable, switched video, with lower thirds, chroma keying, split screen is truly phenomenal. It would be great to do split screen as 3 side-by-side or 4 side-by-side or in a 4-square box, or even 5 (e.g., four live feeds displayed and an SD video source or pic that they are looking at and responding to). I would love to see that functionality in the future! Great channel, Tom! Keep up the outstanding work!

[@tombuck]

Thank you Nick! Really means a lot to hear this and I’m so happy the channel has been helpful for you!

[@ACDoesIt247]

As a user of the ATEM Mini Pro ISO in a professional setting, this device makes a compelling case for itself as a more flexible, user-friendly all-in one streaming box/monitor/switcher. Really impressive stuff. Blackmagic, please take notes. Let us easily record and stream at the same time. Let us play videos from the media pool. Let us choose the PiP sources. Don't limit us to 30 items in the media pool.

[@tombuck]

I love my ATEM but Yolo has take some pretty big steps to improve things and they seem pretty nimble with the updates.

[@zenissart]

The ATEM Mini mediaplayer only compatible with still images and not videos is a shame… and I’m quite sure it’s not a hardware limitation.

[@ACDoesIt247]

Great video again. Loved seeing you test run the YoloBox Pro a month back or so. Such a great device for multiple applications. Can't decide if my favorite part was when you pretended to type at your desk behind the "green trees green screen," or the fact that I learned I can use my Focusrite 2i2 as a display stand for other devices 🤣!

[@Johnrap]

Excellent video. Thank you.

[@JoshMilesVFX]

Very comprehensive review thank you! I wonder if there will be any remote controls via wifi in the future. Linking another android phone to do the switching, or trigger recording for example would be fantastic. That way you don't have to touch the screen of the device to do basic functions.

[@tombuck]

That could be really cool! Especially if you're not physically near the YoloBox.

[@NoelDelPilar]

Great video and love your personality! I sold my original YoloBox a few weeks ago, and I order the YoloBox Pro.

[@tombuck]

Thanks Noel! Hope you like the Pro!

[@TheBuenoWorldDrone]

YoloBox Pro 사용설명 잘 봤습니다. 사용하는데 많은 도움이 되겠습니다.^^

[@SamTavrs]

Seems practical to me. Very 'SD-lightful" video, Tom

[@ElevateToTheUnknown]

I love my yolobox pro. It has fantastic features and eliminates having to bring my laptop to live stream, however I've noticed that it does not pick up super chat comments from KZbin. I also realized it doesn't charge while streaming although being plugged in. So basically although you have a power source, your unit will die after a few hours of livestreaming weird.

[@tombuck]

Interesting about the Super Chats- I feel like that's something they could fix. As for charging, I had the same issue and it turns out I wasn't using the right adapter. I started using a 12V USB adapter and now it stays charged while streaming when plugged in.

[@ElevateToTheUnknown]

@@tombuck Thanks Tom. I'll give that a shot because I am not using the charging adapter it came with. I'll have to get it out of the box that it came with.

[@yourfriendrich6345]

Hey hey heyyyyy! I just got my unit and I found out that you could install speedify into it so you could benefit from channel bonding like you would with the LiveU solo but all within the yolobox pro. I installed and it actually worked out great!

[@tombuck]

That's really awesome!

[@ArmstrongMedia]

So I have a yolobox pro and wondered who Tom was 😂? Now that I know you have gained another subscriber. I do enjoy the support so far from the dev team.

[@tombuck]

Haha, I was wondering what other people thought 😬

[@jokerlight]

Hello Tom, your video is incredible, I have been following you for some time now and I love your videos thanks to them I have managed to understand many things that used to cost me a lot, thank you very much for it, it is possible that you will make a video where you use these 3 pieces of equipment, rodecaster pro, atem mini pro and yolobox pro to see how they work with each other, please

[@tombuck]

Hey thanks for the kind words! I have several ATEM & Rodecaster videos, but I haven't made one that throws the YoloBox into the mix yet. Could be a fun idea!

[@DavidFosterVlog]

Will it combine the WiFi, Ethernet, and mobile data so you can use all 3 at the same time? Or can you only use one at a time?

[@tombuck]

As of now, no...but if that's possible it'd be an awesome future update!

[@ArmstrongMedia]

I added Speedify to bond multiple connections. Not formally approved by YB but it works.

[@benbrunskill5618]

Nice and ro"Buck"ST piece of hardware it seems to be..the software , like the Rodecaster, can be updated and will be inproved. I don't need it for now, but in future, who knows. I'll be watching. Nice touch the "Tom message on their software.. :-)" and reason to be proud of!

Full on awesome review Tom! And some great use case scenarios. Quick question… I assume I could use the Yolo box pro as an input to zoom or teams, correct? My use case would be live streaming a monthly club meeting to allow a in person/zoom hybrid. Or in an instructional setting like piano lessons via zoom.

[@pasteurdukensalcius]

Thanks for such a clear video. I have an important question. How I have to do so that the screen of the cameras remains visible by connecting it with the Yolobox... I use a Canon Camera And It Is Really Having Problems...

[@tombuck]

It depends on your camera. Some cameras will always turn the screen off when an HDMI source is connected and others will only turn it off when you have all of the on-screen info set to display over HDMI. It really varies a lot by make and model.

[@ChansathyaKAN]

Very useful video thanks for sharing

[@tombuck]

[@JMFILMS809]

You're welcome!

[@ChristmasClatter]

How many are happy with the Cuss Tom’s eyes options? Probably several on the 405...

[@BrandonTalbot]

Tom, I know you're a big fan of ecamm live which can stream at 4k if you using the pro version. But if you're connecting all those cameras via the Yolobox, is that the bottleneck? Like does it limit the stream quality to 1080 despite cam being able to do 4K?

[@tombuck]

The YoloBox is a 1080 device. My Sony in this video/streams was set to 4K, but the output was only 1080. Still works great though. I love 4K video, but I'm not yet sold on 4K streaming. The idea is great, but the number of casual viewers capable of viewing 4K streams isn't super high just yet.

[@BrandonTalbot]

@@tombuck makes sense. So do you think paying for something like ecam or restream is a better option then if I already have an atem mini?

[@EmpiInsider]

Question👋🏻 can you stream on other accounts that are tied to other email addresses? For example if you sign in on a specific email that’s tied to 1 KZbin channel but then want to stream on another totally different channel that’s tied to another email can/does the Yolo allow for multiple KZbin accounts?

[@charlessaunders4430]

I would love to have one of that YOLO bok pro would make my life great

[@tombuck]

It’s super handy!

[@michaelkeenan2658]

Can I ask you what mic do recommend for your current set up , overhead one , going into a rodecaster pro ? Wasn’t sure if you still use sennheiser or another brand , can you let me know your latest recommendations and if you know of a long out of shot arm to hold it, I am using in a similar tool too you , appreciate your time ?

[@AbigailAda]

Thank you Tom, please where can I get a stand to suspend the yolobox pro or yolobox mini? The top of my camera is already occupied with the Rode Wireless Go II MIC so I can’t put the yolobox on the camera, can you suggest a good stand or tripod to keep the yolobox on?

[@tombuck]

Since it has a 1/4 20 mount, really any tripod, light stand, c stand, or articulating arm will work. The simplest option is probably just a simple light stand 👍

[@ArraialHD]

as life is too short for cable management and trying to be minimalism may I use like 3 wireless smartphones as my cameras on weddings/sports/conferences for exemple? Thank You.

[@tombuck]

Currently the way to do that with the YoloBox would be to run each phone through a wireless transmitter/receiver, but perhaps at some point they can add in NDI in an update, which if possible would be extremely useful.

[@JuusoHoo]

well well this is overwhelming wow..Have used Atem M-P and this seems a lot more "multiusable"! thanks

[@tombuck]

The YoloBox is pretty awesome. I really like how often they update the firmware to add new features and how much they listen to the user community.

[@Ticklefitz]

I just got this, ive had the ninja V that i was using to live stream from but they refuse to make the audio porion to share sound so got rid of it. You can only use whatever cam your connected to or switched to for audio. And their CS isnt great :(

[@gojohnnygo2021]

Tom, always love the videos!! Question, can you stream to Restream or Streamyard from Yolobox?

[@rickgodley1018]

Chadwick sent me. Looking forward to learning from you. I am trying to master my use of the Rode wireless Go II and my options of streaming live into and through my Rodecaster as well as using the Rode wireless Go II and recording for posting and playback with Canon XA15. Stumbling my way to getting it right. You are a great help from someone who doesn't have a clue, just a want to. I've been telling people, 2021 for me is like, trying to solve a 1000-piece jigsaw puzzle, except I'm trying to do 4 of them at the same time, with all 4000 pieces in the same box. Does this make sense to anyone else out there? Please tell me it's do able. Thank you all . PS I like your current use of the Focusrite. I too have one now collecting dust, since I got my Rodecaster back in March.

[@tombuck]

Have you seen those puzzles that are all one solid color with no edges? Maybe that's what we're all working on 😁 I'm happy that the videos have been helpful- I promise it's possible to get to wherever you want to be, it just takes time. Things can seem very overwhelming if you look at it all at one, but if you start with what you've got and then fine tune/upgrade parts as you go along it becomes much more attainable.

[@tamipaul7994]

What do you suggest for cameras? This would be a church setting, starting with two cameras.

[@tombuck]

That's quite the rabbithole to go down, but my general recommendation is Sony. The ZV-E10 is a budget option, and something like the a7IV or FX3 would be higher end choices. A lot of churches use Blackmagic cameras and switchers (which it kind of funny considering the name) and they can be phenomenal as long as there's someone who understands how to set it all up and operate them correctly.

[@YoloVib3s]

So would you recommend using the YoloBox Pro in conjunction with say an Elgato stream deck or a Loupdeck Live? Also what is that wireless video streaming device you have on the camera in your hand when your outside?

[@tombuck]

Currently, you can't connect something like a stream deck directly to the YoloBox, but you could run them all into a computer (with the YoloBox acting almost like an ATEM). I was using the Hollyland Mars 400 to send a wireless video signal. I have a whole video on it, it's very fun!

[@YoloVib3s]

[@silverscreenmike]

Do you have a recommendation for specific HDMI cables to use with this or other inputs like the Elgato CamLink 4K?

I honestly just use whatever cables I can find on Amazon that have the length I need. I prefer slimmer cables that are easier to wrap/bend.

[@tombuck]

The YoloBox will take any HDMI input, so depending on your GoPro you might be able to send an HDMI signal directly or you might need one of the Media Mod accessories to do it.

[@SpeakingofHappy]

Did you get the 12v usb 3.0 power plug with your Yolobox pro? I didn't and if you did I will need to take that up with them! LOL If you didn't but you have a link to where you bought yours would you be willing to share? Thanks! I also didn't get two chords. I only recieved one that was usb-c to usb.

Hey Tom. Would it allow you to switch between cameras via a computer in the example you used with the Hollyland? Use case a one man show with multiple cameras.

It currently doesn't allow for computer control, but you could run it into a device like the ATEM.

[@honduzuelatv2436]

You could either run a long cable or use an HDMI wireless system, like the ones from Hollyland 👍

Good evening! Which cameras have you connected to the 1st and 2nd inputs via HDMI ports and with what settings?

[@tombuck]

In this video I was using the Sony a7SIII and Canon EOS R, both at 24fps. The YoloBox Pro has been pretty friendly with any camera I've connected to it so far 👍

[@sergluviano]

Hey Tom! I record a podcast with 3 Sony a7iii and 1 a7siii cameras. Does this save the multi cam file in 4K? All the ones I’ve researched say up to 1080. Any recommendations on a lower budget one if available? Great video!!!

[@tombuck]

This currently does NOT save the multi cam output. You’d need something along the lines of the ATEM ISO for that, which would also automatically create a Resolve project file 👍

[@sergluviano]

@@tombuck thank you so much! I’ll look into that one. I work with FCPX so hoping the resolve file can work for it

[@nickcicione8455]

Great review! There's a big discount now with the pro now that the ultra is out. Would the pro still be a good purchase?

[@tombuck]

The Pro is still super capable, so I guess it really comes down to price (and you might be able to find the Pro on sale more often than the newer Ultra). Vertical video is also important to consider, since the Ultra is really the way to go if you plan to stream vertically.

[@MurrayWilkinson1]

Can I add motion graphics on an alpha channel overlay?

[@tombuck]

Not currently as far as I know, but you knows what they might have up their sleeves with a future update.

[@theunboxnetwork]

You didn't mention anything for wireless live streaming different cameras with Yolo box pro, by the way when I upload a video 4k it doesn't stretch much on my s23 ultra but your video does take over almost thr whole screen in horizontal.

[@tombuck]

Wireless live streaming with cameras works well with something like the Holland Mars setup (I do have a video about that). And I did make this video in a 2:1 aspect ratio in hopes that it wouldn't get cropped on phones, which I'm happy to hear is what happened!

[@Dan_TheMedic]

Between £800 - £1500 in the U.K. for this bit of kit is serious investment in a product and probably not for those looking for a budget solution. Great video though.

[@BENCREATIONS]

what was the video quality difference you noticed.. original yolobox and pro?

[@tombuck]

The Pro is significantly better. As you can see here, it even holds up pretty well to the 4K coming from my camera.

[@jalabi99]

Do we use the YoloBox Pro as an alternative to the ATEM Mini Pro? Or can we use both of them together?

[@tombuck]

Really it’s either or. The benefit to the YoloBox is how stand-alone it is, but the ATEM has physical buttons and some incredibly advanced features if you really want to dig into it.

This could be a solution for small churches on budget. Audio input is my question. How do you get audio from an analog mixer. Do I need a computer to connect audio on it?

[@tombuck]

I think this could be a great simple option for churches (YoloLive themselves told me that schools and churches are some of their biggest customers). As for audio, you'll just need to somehow get your output into a 3.5mm cable. Depending on your mixer, you should be able to find adapters/cables that work and then you would eliminate the need for a computer altogether.

[@boxoffisa]

@@tombuck thank you man. This will work without hustle then. We are a small church and been looking for a solution. Thanks for help.

Looks like a cool product! Is that tracking from the updated FCPX?!

[@tombuck]

Haha, no it's mTracker- I finally learned how to use it like a week before the Final Cut update 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@podcastpoint7576]

Can you show us how you made the time they said transitioning to beginning with the layers it looks pretty cool I like it a lot make us so the total how you did it I want to do it to

[@tombuck]

The scoreboard time? In the scoreboard section, there's a settings option that lets you customize EVERYTHING. It's super simple and you can dial things in exactly how you want them.

[@silverlininghomeplace]

Another super valuable video. Thanks, Tom! Q: Were you able to go live on Facebook in 1080? It isn't clear to me from YoloBox or Facebook if streams from my YoloBox Pro are limited to 720.

[@frankfengzhu]

According to our tests, livestreaming to Facebook with YoloBox Pro is 1080p and when the stream ends the video compressed to 720p. No limit/restriction on Yolo encoder!

[@tombuck]

This is the most qualified answer here!

[@silverlininghomeplace]

[@MattPhelps76]

Can you go live to fb and yt using an existing event and streaming key already set up? Or do you have to enter details/set up the streaming details every time?

[@tombuck]

I haven't streamed on Facebook, but KZbin is just based on your account, so once you're signed in you're all set.

[@MattPhelps76]

@@tombuck I guess I mean if you pre schedule the stream (set it up in yt ahead of time) can you stream to that live event or does it create a whole new live event when you go live? The workflow I have in mind is to set up the events a week in advance and use the stream key to go live on that particular event.

[@marcusstenbeck]

I noticed that in the test stream there’s quite low quality audio with popping. Do you know if this is fixed yet?

[@tombuck]

Honestly, that was probably user error on my end using a wireless mic.

You're welcome!

[@stephenbrunton4891]

Hi @tombuck, can you tell me how to get hold of the HDMI Encoder you referenced in the video at 4:04. I'm keen to get several of these, to try to solve a similar problem you did, but I'm not entirely certain of what to search for. Any help or a link would be greatly appreciated. regards Stephen.

[@stephenbrunton4891]

Also: at 4:25 I zoomed in to read the device and note it says Bi Directional Ghost! So.. is it Haunted? Lol, but what does this spooky text mean? thanks again.

[@tombuck]

Haha, not haunted (hopefully), but works well! Here's the one I ordered: geni.us/QFwgym

[@rawimagemedia5823]

Have you used the pro with 5G hotspot such as T-mobile to stream?

[@tombuck]

I've got an iPhone XR, which doesn't have 5G, but I've used it with pretty good results.

[@witheverybreath]

This is a great video, but i'm shocked that you didn't show how to put graphics on the video (intro and outro) as you know this is fundamental for streaming these days. Is there any information you can give in relation to this; pro's and con's?

[@tombuck]

You can either add graphics as images (as shown in the video), or you can put your intro/outro clips on an SD card and play the clips from a card 👍

[@witheverybreath]

@@tombuck is it only one graphic you can load at a time?

[@ARUTECHALI]

[@arnoldsnodgrass2953]

Does it accept (and encode at) 25 / 50p for those of us in PAL-lands?

[@tombuck]

You know, I'm not totally sure. I want to say yes, but I can't confirm. It might be worth reaching out to YoloLiv on social media for an answer, they're usually super responsive.

[@foxxmediaja]

Do you still need the hdmi encoder to use with cannon cameras?

[@tombuck]

The Pro works with everything natively, thank goodness. So far it's taken every signal I've sent to it (Canon, Sony, Blackmagic, Computer).

[@nvaudio]

There's a dad somewhere who is sad that you are stealing all of his jokes.

A regular joke only becomes a dad joke when it’s apparent.

How long does streaming last?

[@DjPositiveP]

Can you use it as a Webcam in OBS if you wanted to?

[@tombuck]

I haven’t tried with OBS but it should show up when connected via USB.

[@jrich21bp]

How are your videos so crystal clear?? Do you record in 4k?

[@tombuck]

They are in 4K which helps, but I think a quality lens is what makes the biggest difference. I appreciate the compliment!

@@tombuck I’m hoping my Signa 16mm 1.4 will make my videos look like this on my A6400!

[@justicemeeks7007]

Please go into detail about the holly land mars and how it works w yolobox pro nobody does reviews or set up vids like u Tom !!

[@tombuck]

I'm working on a Yolobox update video, so I'll be sure to talk about the Hollyland in it. Basically it's just a great way to bring in sources to the YoloBox wirelessly. If I had had these tools when I was teaching and we would stream sports games, it would've been amazing. Instead of running cables and setting up computers, we could've just had a YoloBox and a few Hollylands running cameras wirelessly. It seriously would've taken our setup time from 3 hours to like 15 minutes.

[@mrsdesireerose]

How many cameras did you use for this video?

[@tombuck]

I usually use two cameras for most videos 👍

[@TodayIFeelLike]

Can you use the Yolo Box if you want to invite guest to the live stream?

[@tombuck]

There’s not currently an interview mode, but that’s be awesome.

Can this support 3 camera angles and share a screen on a computer?

[@tombuck]

The 3 HDMIs can be any source (cameras or computer).

[@edwinzhingri]

Great video, thanks :). Has anyone figure out how to do replays on the yolobox pro?. I stream soccer games and I want to be able to replay the goals, so the last 10 seconds everytime someone scores. Thanks in advance.

[@tombuck]

I'm hoping this is a feature that might be added in a future update- that would definitely be super cool!
