Hello All,
First of all thank you for taking the time to take a look at my post. I have been given the task of streaming our company events via WebEx and/or GoToMeeting. We have a very basic setup of using a Logitech C930 webcam on both the presenter and the audience. What we would like to do is be able to have a 2 x HD camcorder's and an audio system (lapel mic for speaker + microphone for audience) to have more of a professional setup for recording these events while also possibly helping to improve our streaming quality.
I have fairly good knowledge in computer/server equipment but am completely clueless when it comes to A/V hardware and software. After some research, I wasn't able to find many people using camcorder's as webcams these days so our plan may not be feasible as it seems like this was more commonly done in the past using firewire.
I would be very thankful if you guys could recommend some hardware/software to help us with our setup. One feature we'd like to incorporate in the new setup would be to switch the source of the video between the two camera's. I see that some people are doing this via a hardware switch while other's are doing this software. We have a budget of ~$1,500-$2,000. I apologize if this out of the scope of this section, but any pointers in the right direction would also be very helpful.
Thank you,
Steven
