Wirecast 14 - Getting Started With PRO Level Live Streaming

[@GarthHaslem]

I've been searching all over trying to find a way to do a video podcast with multiple guests. It should have been easy, but I was getting nowhere until I found this. Thank you.

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Glad I could help!

[@SSMindSeeKING]

I know this is old, but thanks for sharing this. I'm not new to wirecast, but during the time that I've had this software--I wasn't using it. But now it's go time. lol. Thanks again.

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Yes. It’s go time.

[@michaelauknz]

Monte...This is long overdue and clearly very well done...As Wirecast has forgotten simplicity and focused on complexity..

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

I agree. It seems like it's just us users that are helping each other out with questions and issues. Wirecast use to do a weekly show that I thought was very helpful.

[@voc999]

Excellent introduction to Wirecast, thank you very much, great explanations.

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Thank you. Glad it was helpful.

[@devincreislerstudios]

Thank you! This video helped my understanding of Wire Cast and its many functions

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Glad it helped!

[@wheatgrass59]

👍Thank you very much, everything is extremely clear and understandable. Greetings from Moscow

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Glad the video was helpful. I’ll be using Wirecast more during my Monday weekly live-streams.

[@wheatgrass59]

@@MonteWeaverofficial thank you so much!

[@sautsitumorangkpk]

Awesome ...Thanks Mate ..

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

My pleasure!

[@Biruk894]

I appreciate your teaching is simple and clear

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Thanks. Tutorial videos are tough. I appreciate the feedback

[@gigwebsspecialists8661]

You deserve a million subs bro! ... You r good at what you do! ... keep it up

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Thanks. Wirecast 15 beta is out. I’m going to attempt to get some videos recorded about it.

[@chartlook1]

I've been on Wirecast since version 7 as well.. love it too

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Cool. It’s a powerful software.

[@chartlook1]

@@MonteWeaverofficial I feed my main camera ( Panasonic DVX200 ) from my Yamaha mixer so when I input the audio back into Wirecast (eg. on the lower layer ) or elsewhere to be used on other layers eg PinP, I need to adjust in Wirecast from the audio mixer everywhere that input is used to make sure the sound is the same as the camera shot. Just something to keep in mind if you feed the main camera that is.

[@drdimento]

Thanks Monte, by far the "best" tutorial i've seen yet, bar none. Thank you! Where are the rest of the tutorial series?

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Right after I did this video, I got super busy with my business so I haven't been able to record more tutorials specifically for Wirecast.

[@drdimento]

@@MonteWeaverofficial bummer. You do such nice work and presentation. 👍

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Thanks

[@mfundongwanya9655]

Can I have a link to download software

[@ayoadeyemi1251]

Thanks for the video. Much appreciated. I do streaming for my church, please how can i had Easyworship output to wire cast and also use wire cast to control local display screens in the church. The looping camera video via the media capture card always the one showing on the church screes.

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Unfortunately I'm not familiar with how Easyworship, but if you have the output on a separate monitor, feeding it into Wirecast would simply be a screen capture source.

[@laminfmmarigocomes]

This is great thank you

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Glad you liked it!

[@BeFreeUniversity]

Great Job. You introduced me to WireCast 6 years ago - George Howard

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Thanks for watching.

[@johnbawi]

I enjoyed your youtube video all the time and learn a lot. Is it Wirecast applicable for tennis live streaming or do they have another software?

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Any live streaming platform works. Each platform just has their own features. Specifically for sports having a scoreboard feature is important and can be done with Wirecast.

[@inspiredforgreatness]

Hopefully this service will be successful.. I’ve recently tried OBS but I ran into extreme lagging.. for my ministry social media page. Thanks for great content

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

I would definitely recommend investigating the lagging issue first. This issue could be caused by the computer if it does not have the specs necessary to run a smooth stream, computer graphics card and even internet upload speeds.

[@inspiredforgreatness]

Monte Weaver thanks for the advice!

[@djgnice265]

Great Tutorial

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Glad it was helpful!

[@deshpunjabradio6025]

Very good explanatory video, many thanks.

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

No problem.

[@Gnosis2078]

I cannot find any more advanced wirecast videos from this series. Where dey hiding?

Right after recording this video, business got busy and didn't have time to record more specifically for Wirecast.

Thank you. Subscribed!

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Thanks for subscribing to the channel

[@Elpuchungosexy]

can you make a video explaining how to use web stream??

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

If time allows. I haven’t had the time to record and upload any videos for the past couple months.

[@JOTV876]

Thanks for the intro video, I thought you would have more videos as you mentioned going more in detail in future videos. However, I'm not seeing anything else related to Wirecast. Do you have any plans for a future video on this topic?

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Right after I uploaded this video, I've been working with a lot of clients so just haven't had the time to create more videos for Wirecast as I anticipated.

[@JOTV876]

@@MonteWeaverofficial ok no worries, I will look elsewhere. Thanks for answering.

[@JBeMart]

How to Make Spinning/Rotating Logo in Wirecast?? Please make a vedio on it, Thanks

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

I'm not sure how that can be done within Wirecast, I typically create the spinning logo within a video editor program and then I upload the mp4 file into Wirecast.

[@JBeMart]

@@MonteWeaverofficial thanks for responds

[@PastorRomelus]

Thank you for the video, Can we display lyrics/ Bible verses on the screen while live-streaming during Sunday morning service? If so, please send me the link showing how to do that. Thank you in advance,

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

You can definitely do that. I don’t have a video for it. Here’s a conference where i will be teaching more about Wirecast for ministries. Registration grants you access to both days. emissionaryconference.com

[@ItCantRainForever2]

Just found out about this. Sounds interesting

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Wirecast is a powerful platform.

[@TheReverrol1990]

So you dont have to add audio to each camera or layer right just keep it at the bottom

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Correct.

[@bamboopms11]

Hey, I’m new to wirecast and I’m searching for an up to date tutorial on the iso-replay option. Can you do a video on the replay option?

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Unfortunately, it will be a while before I would be able to create a YT video for it. If you're in my community group, just shoot me a message and ill post a quick vid in the “live-streaming / wirecast” section.

[@bamboopms11]

How do I get into the community group?

Mastermind Community - valetmedia.podia.com/mastermind

[@joshuarobert9528]

Thanks for the tutorial. Have a question, how do I stream directly to my WordPress website using Wirecast?

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

I personally just use a YT embed code and place that in the wordpress site.

[@CrossroadLife]

Great vid! My church has been using Wirecast for several years (though not the Pro version). For the most part it's been going pretty smooth but we're getting a "hitch" (for lack of a better word) during our live stream service (KZbin). Video and audio remain in sync, but about every few seconds, there is a momentary and noticeable pause (hitch) which creates a less than smooth video. I haven't been able to deduce if its a FPS issue, a bit rate issue, an encoding quality issue, or a combination of them. I've eliminated internet speed as a causal factor (79 Mbps up, 17 Mbps down). Any ideas on what may be causing the issue?

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

I'd definitely would need to spend time to really look into some troubleshooting. Nothing immediately comes to mind of what could cause that specific issue.

[@LindiMoo]

@@MonteWeaverofficial or @Crossroad Life did you ever find a solution? I am having the same issue on Mac the "glitches" are apparent even before recording or streaming.

[@LindiMoo]

Remember Max Headroom from a long time ago? LOL. that's how this pause looks on my wirecast on my mac. Did you find a solution?

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

I haven’t had any dedicated time to research and troubleshoot.

[@airwreckbee313]

Max Headroom! 😂 Ours isn't that bad but it is noticeable. No issues live--only during stream. Hadn't thought about checking the recording to see if the problem is there as well. I'm curious if it's Mac issue since we're using a Mac as well.🤔

[@partylab24musikagenturlive24]

Hi Monte, , is there a way to control incoming audio from lets say zoom also via the studio live board? More like a hybrid show. Lets say we have 5 people calling in and we have a live band in the studio and we want to control everything from the studio live mixer including monitoring with the least latency in the monitor mix possible. Audio and Monitor Routing seems to be impossible to control. we tried Wirecast, and we could not make it to do a good job. audio control really is a pain in the **** - maybe you have an idea? thanks!

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

You’re going to have little control of incoming audio. You’d probably want to route it through an interface first before bringing into Wirecast or have the callers adjust on their end. I can connect with my audio guy for a consult and troubleshooting

[@Gnosis2078]

Thanks Monte. Nice intro.

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

You're welcome

[@sportscardkelly]

Is there a part two here?

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

There was going to be but just got busy with life and wasn’t able to have a part 2

[@eworshiper8340]

This was awesome! I do the streaming for my church and I am new to Wirecast 14. We are trying to stream to KZbin. I made it work once but still a little confused. Do you have a specific video on setting up the streaming like u did in this video? I need to know if I need to set up an event in KZbin or should I just set do it thru RTMP - but I heard you have to set that up every week. pls advise

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

I don't have a video yet. I've been teaching my Mastermind group so just haven't had the time to make more Wirecasr videos. Using RTMP is the best way as YT made some changes on their platform.

[@CrossroadLife]

You may already have the answer to this but just in case.... kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZK0lYOKm9WVmJI

Good afternoon sir, please sir how can i add my phone camera to wirecast

You can use NDI app or the Wirecast Go app

[@llearyq]

Hello Monte thank you for the video. Is it possible for you to create a how-too video for streaming from wirecast-to-zoom-to facebook live?

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Hi Racine. I get so many request that it's not feasible to create every video request. This is why I do offer one-on-one meetings and offer a membership community.

[@osassunday4818]

Is very nice

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Yes. One of my favorite live streaming platforms.

[@jaustinphelps]

Thanks for this! Are you familiar with the Wirecast Web Stream?

is this one time purchase or monthly bases, thank you for the video, I'm looking for our church but I'm looking for one time purchase software , at present we are using OBS but its not working properly it hangs sometimes , sudden crashes .

Its a one time purchase but I'd definitely recommend getting the $99 yearly support plan to get all the updates each year.

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

There are so many potential variables. This would be much easier to troubleshoot if you want to schedule a strategy session. valetmedia.podia.com/strategy-session - One occasion I get a jerky preview but my output always comes out clean. I personally use an i7 processor and 32gb RAM with 2 monitors max plugged directly into my computer. I'd recommend testing OBS or another platform to see if you can isolate it to Wirecast or computer/machine.

@@MonteWeaverofficial Thank You. I rebooted the computer and began a different sequence of turning on the cameras. Everything works very well now. God Bless!

You would need to setup an output destination to each zoom room.

[@sydneysterling3335]

I'm using wirecast and I have a i5 but it is maxing out my cpu I'm using a Mac mini do I need to upgrade to a i7

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Wirecast is definitely a powerful platform that requires a powerful pc. I definitely recommend a i7 Quad Core with at least 16GB of ram.

[@brama563]

can you tell us how to use wire cast and use it on ustream

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

I've personally never used u-stream.

[@Simplyfishingtv]

The problem we have is utilizing ZOOM with Wirecast. Big issue for us.

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Depending on the your use case, the built in "rendezvous" feature may be an option to consider using. I've personally not had issues brining in audio/video feeds of zoom, google meets, or any of the other popular meeting platforms. However depending on the use case, I can see how there could be some situations where its not the most ideal situation combining these platforms together.

[@Simplyfishingtv]

@@MonteWeaverofficial The audio routing is something to be desired.

[@osassunday4818]

How can I download it on my pc 💻

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Visit the telestream website and choose wirecast. Once you purchase the software, you will be provided download details

[@blueorchidquilting]

Please tell me about Controllers?

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

I don’t own any of the controllers. They are extra devices that would need to be purchased and be configured to work with the software.

@@MonteWeaverofficial ok so in wirecast i can create an embed url?

[@MonteWeaverofficial]

Not natively within Wirecast. I connect to Restream ( restream.io/join/monte ) and use their embed code feature.
