Hey folks,
First of all, any and all assistance is gratefully appreciated here. I've got some experience with video production, and very limited experience with live streaming, but I've been given an opportunity that's above my head in terms of complexity at the minute.
I work for a motorcycling news website, in a sports journalism and web production role, and I've been offered the opportunity to live stream an upcoming race meeting that's being professionally produced by a host broadcaster. We're a fairly big channel on YouTube, and get good support from them as well as having livestreaming capability, so that's my preferred platform.
The host broadcaster have offered me a satellite downlink, but I have absolutely no idea how to go about setting that up - but I'll also be on site during the event, which also has high speed internet access.
So my question is - what hardware would I need to make it all happen? I assume that I can essentially take a feed from their system and then plug it into a Blackmagic box in order to encode it for YouTube, but I'm not sure if that's too simple. Any help is appreciated!
