You are a legend. KZbin videos that are to the point for the win.

[@AlexPettitt]

Appreciate the feedback Douglas! Cheers

[@curtvincent3728]

I had to look at 10+ videos until I found this one. Gave me EXACTLY want I needed and explained it extremely well. Well done! Thank you!

[@DiscipleDojo]

A video showing how to also capture multiview in Zoom and record it would be really helpful...especially for us tech noobs who don't know the lingo. This was a great video that didn't stray *too* far into jargon or tech-babble. Thank you for it.

[@jaycole2389]

Thanks the tip on Zoom blocking use of ATEM mini when OBS is on is very helpful . Great job

[@ndrmkhn6559]

I leave my comment here for easy search later. Thank you for your good tutorial, man, it's still very valuable

[@WORLDDRUMCLUB]

I have the ATEM Mini Pro ISO connected to my Mac with a long USB 3.0 cable (4 meter) and using an adapter at the ATEM for the USB C out. It's not working. Have you found that longer cables don't work or should I be using a longer USB-C cable and an adapter at the computer end? I don't have USB-C into my Mac, so I have to get the input from the ATEM to a USB 3.0 type.

[@carbregon]

I´m learning at work how to conect and operate ATEM mini, zoom and OBS for streaming and all your videos and tips are very useful. I have a lot to learn and work harder to figure all this out. Thank you very much, I´m taking notes for future reference. Cheers from Mexico.

A few tricky bits to watch out for: Make sure your audio goes into your camera and from there into the computer, HDMI will otherwise give you a delay. Also, if you also share a screen and your system audio, get a mix-minus set up for your participants, otherwise they will hear themselves echo.

[@droopydog500]

How do you do the mix minus? That is what I am trying to figure out

[@NewFreedomPodcast]

Same

[@MikeBerbano]

​@@droopydog500on your audio mixer: - use AUX sends to send all of your desired audio feeds (mics, laptop audio, etc) to the Zoom conference call EXCEPT (minus) the Zoom audio coming back to you from the far end. - use your audio mixer main outputs to provide a separate audio mix to your live audio speaker system for your In-Room participants.

[@ericcosh]

Thanks Alex. Always great to watch you. Wish I was 30 to 50 years younger (82 now) and I’m sure I’d retain much more. Love my Mini pro. Eric

[@artkarp]

I have connected the ATEM Mini to vMix and used vMix output as my Zoom camera in. Worked great. VMix can also display the current output on a screen, if you have a two or three screens connected to your PC. Doing that lets you do a screen share in Zoom which shows the vMix/OBS output. This allow you to combine all the features of the ATEM and vMix/OBS. 😁

[@muirmustangsmediatv9464]

I didn't have a USB-C to USB-C cable handy, only a USB-C to HDMI and HDMI to USB-C cable. After I connected those two cables (webcam out to Macbook), my Macbook didn't read my ATEM Mini. I guess I need a straight USB-C to USB-C from the Mini to my Macbook. Thanks for showing that setup. It really helped me.

[@phcphcphc]

You are the unchallenged master of explaining the Atem Mini. Please do a video on the best and easiest way to take in a guest on Zoom with the Atem mini. So many have tried but all failed in explaning this in a understandable way. You can do it I am certain.

[@AlexPettitt]

Thanks Peter, this is definitely something I can look into. I don't work too much with Zoom calls myself, but leave it with me :)

[@phcphcphc]

@@AlexPettitt Would be great Alex. Whether it is Zoom, Teams or other does not really matter. The big Q is how to communicate with an external guest and stream the interview. I have seem your vid on Restream Studio, and that it really a smart tool for many thing. But if you want to stream directly from the ATEM to RTMP (avoid the extra PC and cost of Restream) you must take in guests directly into the ATEM input.

[@bobosputnik]

Thanks Alex. You've helped clear up a lot of issues we were having going with a strictly OBS >> ZOOM set up.

[@PhysiologywithChristian]

These videos have been really useful! I'm loving my ATEM MiniPro!!

[@YogawithAllieVanFossen]

Question: why are you using OBS to record the feed rather than the usb out to direct record to a hard drive from the Atem Pro?

[@AlexPettitt]

Hey Allie, it’s because I was using the USB-C to send a feed to my Mac for the Zoom call, so with the USB-C already in use, you can not plug a Hard drive into it for recording, so best way to record is via software on the same Pc/Mac

[@pinnaclephoto]

@@AlexPettitt Just to clarify your point here. If you're using the ATEM Mini Pro ISO and using your USB-C to connect the switcher to your laptop, this will means you're unable to record each angle independently correct? I don't believe OBS allows for that and only captures the switched stream output. This is a major flaw with the design and something I hope BMD addresses in their next model. Having two USB-C outputs would be massively helpful. Any wisdom on this, Alex? I'd love to hear your take.

[@carutherswillaby7592]

@@pinnaclephoto The ATEM Mini Pro ISO does this. There are three versions of the ATEM Mini.

[@AvistaMultimedia]

@@AlexPettitt Could you use an USB-C Hub to get the signal out to connect the Atem to the Mac and at the same time record on a hard drive? have you tried it?

Thank you for another helpful video! btw: ZOOM pro does allow you to record session BUT the recording quality is lousy

[@sajannarekat]

Thanks for the video Alex; very informative. I was struggling with zoom and recording with the resource being locked by one application.

[@chrismonsen]

Great video, thank you so much for sharing. A question, How do you record the keynote presentation and conversations from webinar participants in zoom in OBS?

[@ShaneHarderPhoto]

This is a great method. The way I've done it is by using my laptop webcam so the person I'm talking to sees that, then I use the ATEM mini pro PIP to overlay over the top of the little video window zoom shows of yourself talking using the laptop webcam. Then I can record directly out of the USB C port. The nice thing about this is it's simpler, the bad thing is the person I'm talking to sees a terrible webcam video feed of myself instead of a nice looking feed. BUT.... I've worked around that by using a 5D mk IV I typically only use as a stills camera and the new EOS webcam utility to use my 5D as the webcam so the person I'm talking to still has a nice image.

[@AlexPettitt]

Really like your creativity with this work around Shane! Got any videos of it working on action? Would be cool to see :)

[@jeduardocortezmendez290]

Wow thanks a lot mate!!! Your video game me so much clarity. I was in the understanding that I needed a switcher like the black magic atem mini PLUS a software like OBS just to be able to broadcast... now I understand I need the OBS like software, only if I want to record the whole thing... the only question that I have, I will look to see if you have other videos regarding this... is what do I need to do in order to have a multiview of my cameras, I am planning to have 4.

[@essanmedia]

Great video and thanks for taking the time. You were using a Sony camera for this video. Did you do the color correction using atem mini pro or it was in camera. Thanks again

[@AlexPettitt]

Hey Nelson, thanks for the kind comment. I actually didn’t apply any colour correction at all. I’ve managed to get my setup & lighting to a point where what comes directly out of the camera is what goes into the ATEM Mini and then is recorded for KZbin. No colour correction in post either. I do this to speed up my whole workflow. But, if you’re looking to add colour correction, the ATEM Mini can only control/colour correct BlackMagic Pocket Cinema cams, so any other cameras would need to be colour corrected either on camera or in post. Hope this help!

[@essanmedia]

Alex Pettitt got it. Thanks Alex

[@HomesickMac]

@@AlexPettitt Hi! I think this could be an idea for another video - "How to color grade in camera for your livestream"... I've managed to get very pleasing colours by just tinkering with the white balance and then tweaking the.. "Landscape" profile in my Sony A5100. Also, the (hold on now) Toy Camera settings can give fantastic results if used with smart white balancing. The main thing will still be your lighting in the room, without that, no settings in the camera will save you.. Looking forward to this kind of video!

@@AlexPettitt Hi Alex, been following your videos for a couple of weeks now. I have a setup that I'd like to emulate... but for the love of YT... I can't figure out HOW they're doing it, and HOW they get the high quality. This team of KZbinrs stream together - the show appears simultaneously on each KZbinr channel. Also, hosting withing China onto YT is not the easiest since we have to go through VPN... although, I know of member of the team is not in China so perhaps he's hosting.

Great job.. thanks!! I was about to buy the ATEM mini but all the air came out of me when near the end you said that we can't use the ATEM mini to live stream the capture of Zoom call with audio and video of callers, but the feature is available in Zoom. Would you know of a device that does allow this, capturing the callers' audio and video from Zoom along with our high quality video/audio that we're feeding into the ATEM mini for example, all produced as one video/audio source that gets streamed? I thought there was some way to use this device to live stream video from my cameras while capturing video of Zoom callers with their audio and have it show up in the live stream. I want to do something like this with my son, who lives in another state, where we got on Zoom call and I use the ATEM Mini to live stream, with the ability to add callers to Zooma and see and hear them on the live stream, again using ATEM Mini, not the Zoom streaming feature. Is there a device that does this. I prefer not to do it with OBS and Zoom and virtual audio cables etc. I don't like a kluge solution that touches my Windows audio config. Thanks very much!!

[@jazzer84]

I'm debating if an ATEM Mini Pro is worth over the Mini standard version. I want this for educational purposes only over Zoom and an ocasional streaming. Is the streaming feature in the Mini Pro compatible with some other platforms than KZbin? Facebook Live Streaming? Also like to know if the ATEM Control software may allow some custom PIP like, let's say compositing two angles of a professor playing the piano and a top view of the keyboard and hands visible in bottom part of the frame. Thanks so much in advance, loved your video.

I have the Atem Mini, with multiple cameras this is a great way to do online learning sessions as well as Zoom calls.

Great video - thanks ;-) Just one question - I would like to use this setup to stream product demos that include video of hardware products + audio software. This means I'll likely need 2 camera feeds + a desktop capture (which I am happy can be set up without any problem) BUT the audio routing is tricky, as I want to have audio input from my pro microphone + hear the output from a music production application + have this routed into Skype/Zoom so everything looks and sounds good and importantly without there being any audio latency between the mic and the music software output. PS: I am on PC and have an ASIO audio interface, so in theory all should work ok. I just haven't found a good way to do this yet - but figured that may you have??

[@onsiterecording]

Brilliant Alex. The thing is... Set up just like you say, coming out of the ATEM Mini Pro into the computer when monitoring OBS from the computer the audio is delayed some and the video is even more delayed. Is that because I'm using a very low spec MacBook Air? Recording looks good at bit rate 2500 kbps but audio and video are out of sync withe audio first of course. (P.S. I've integrated my entire 3 camera set-up built around the ATEM Mini Pro on many Skype and Zoom meetings and it's been working great.)

[@AlexPettitt]

It could be to do with your MacBook Air. You could try adding an audio delay in OBS to match the two

[@onsiterecording]

@@AlexPettitt Thank you, Alex. I've tried adding audio delay...no effect. I think that only has an effect if audio and video are coming from separate sources and using OBS as the encoder. Still digging the hair, mate!

[@AlexPettitt]

Maybe try opening up QuickTime and recording in there. Or even better, try recording to a USB-C drive using the ATEM Mini Pro recorder. Then, check if that file is in sync. If it is, you know that the ATEM Mini Pro is fine, so the issue is with your MacBook. If it’s not in sync on the ATEM Recording, then that means that there is a sync issue with your audio/video sources :)

[@onsiterecording]

@@AlexPettitt Thank you Alex...Sorry I should have said...everything is fine with recording USB-C out to an external HD...beautiful video and audio and totally in sync. I will try recording to QuickTime, that's a good idea. I think the OBS issue is my weak MacBook Air. I'm going to be getting a fully powered 2015 MacBook Pro at some point BUT if I don't use multi view during an event production, which I don't really need, I can record beautiful video (totally in sync) with my Avermedia Live Gamer Portable as I split the ATEM Mini Pro HDMI out to video monitor with a splitter...works great! (I use the Mini Pro USB-C out to connect to computer for ATEM Mini Pro control software and I use ATEM Mini Pro ethernet out to my router or travel router on gigs for internet streaming and so my MacBook Air can have wifi internet for live internet websites as a program source into HDMI input 4 of the Mini Pro. Things will be a smoother and less work-aroundish when I get a second computer...and this MacBook Air will be for graphics source only.) Cheers, Mate!

[@ilovetri]

Thx for the tutorial! Zoom is obviously reducing the resolution of the webcam input. I came acorss the issue when using Powerpoint presentation. When I share it directly in Zoom, it has good resolution. When I feed it from an extra Notebook through the ATEM mini it gets reduced in resolution. The output resolution from the ATEM mini is still ok at HD. But the viewers in the Zoom webinar get a much lower resolution. Does someone have a fix to that?

[@9VARZ]

Excellent stuff! Just wanted to go one step further. If I wanted to play/share videos with audio during my live stream or Zoom/Teams call, should I still be using the built-in "share screen" function in the Zoom/Teams software or should I have the video on a second device feeding into the ATEM mini pro? If I don't have a second device for the latter, how can I circumvent this? Thanks!
