Video Assist 12G Streaming Question
Posted: Tue Feb 16, 2021 1:47 pm
Hello all.
I am about to purchase a 5" 12G Video Assist purely for live streaming. The new firmware that allows you to stream seems quite useful for my setup.
Here's my current setup:
I use one of my first-gen 5" Video Assists now to stream. I have an HDMI signal that includes audio going in the VA and the HDMI out goes to a monitor. To capture the video signal and audio in Wirecast, I run the SDI out into a USB capture device with SDI in and through. To capture stereo audio I run a 1/8 TRS to split XLR out of the headphone port that then goes into a Zoom H6 which is connected to my Mac as an audio interface. Wirecast brings it in successfully as an audio source.
Using the new 12G via USB with the new firmware would get rid of the need to use the extra step of the SDI out to the USB capture device.
Will the streaming software also detect an audio source with this firmware?
Thank you.
