ATEM Mini: Live Greenscreen-Keying
Posted: Wed Nov 06, 2019 2:41 pm
Dear forum members,
I am relatively new to the world of video-mixers. I am very interested in buying the new ATEM Mini. I have seen this device in real life at the IBC Convention a few weeks ago.
I'm wondering if it is possible to connect a 1920*1080 Laptop to Input 1 and then connect a Video-Camera with a person in front of a greenscreen to Input 2 and then live key the greenscreen from Input 2 while putting the live input of Input 1 in the background?
In other words: like in a live news-tv-show: Input 2: Speaker (in front of Greenscreen) (live keyed) and in the background lies the signal of Input 1?
I know that you can live-key Images and animated stuff that is provided thru the software to the mixer. I'm just wondering if I can use another live Input signal for the background material instead.
I know that Input 2 should be active/on air and the "Key" key on the device should be enabled, but is it possible to choose, which Input-signal should be used to fill out the keyed-out-background of Input 2???
Sorry, if this is an absolute noob-question, but I can't find no real answer to that question...
Thanks so much for helping answers
Cheers,
Joe.
