Live wall (Facebook & Twitter) - What do you guys use ?

PostTue Jun 27, 2017 8:22 pm

Hi !

I was wondering what piece of software you guys uses for live production to monitor a Twitter feed/hashtag or the comments on a Facebook page and then display only the moderated comments as a "news ticker" or full screen (between the shows).

I'm using the ATEM Television studio as my switcher

Thank for your thoughts

When this kind of thing is necessary we rent an XPression machine. I'm sure it's also possible with CasparCG. Just need some kind of key + fill and ability to edit the text on the fly.

For CasparCG there is SocialTVHub: http://socialtvhub.com
It includes a tool for monitoring posts from Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram as well as a set of CasparCG templates and CasparCG client for displaying them on air.

I frequently use "tintup" seems robust and easy to moderate. They have various levels of pricing available. Have had zero problems after a dozen or so uses.

Im using Caspar CG with my own python coded social-grabber with moderating view.
Second option, but not as well good as sending overlay to the switcher, is to create that
overlay with i.e. stream software right before streaming out - I use OBS Studio and again
that social-grabber. If you are interested, I can send it to you, but Im not sure, if it will works properly ;)
Need lot of libraries in python, but not big problem to handle it. I need that social feed maybe once, max twice a year.

Would be keen to see if your code could work for our situation. Social Tv Hub is too expensive for us unfortunately. Need a simple system to pull a twitter feed into a moderator and then display on screen via Caspar CG.

The guy at H2R Graphics is currently developing a solution to offer this for Youtube Live chats (for free by the way). Should this succeed I could imagine he would be able to do the same with other platforms that offer API access.
