Livestreaming with only Micro converter?

PostFri Jan 11, 2019 12:21 pm

Hi!

I have been offered to buy the SDI to HDMI Micro Converter and ive been thinking about it for a while. But the only need i may have for it is to livestream on youtube and facebook with my Cinema camera. so the question is, can i do so, only using the Micro Converter and have the SDI in my camera and the USB go into my PC or do i need another type of converter for this kind of usage?

Thanks!

That converter isn't a capture device. You need a DeckLink, Ultrastudio, or the Web Presenter.
Ryzen 5800X3D
32GB DDR4-3600
RTX 3090
DeckLink 4K Extreme 12G
Resolve Studio 17.4.1

The USB port is there only to power the device and for the odd firmware update that BMD put out every so often for the converter range.
