Atem Mini Only One Input Working

PostSun May 09, 2021 7:35 pm

Hey!
Just got an Atem Mini from BH. I can only seem to get my computer (macbook pro) to show up on my output (Optima Projector). I want to have 2 Bluray Players hooked up while I use this machine because I run a backyard movie business. I like having two machines going, one to play the film, the other as a backup.

The only input that works is whichever one the computer is going into. I can use my best or worst HDMI cables, and it's consistently only showing me the laptop. What's the deal?

Hi Connor-

IIRC, it's likely because the Mini does not pass HDMI content that is HDCP-protected on inputs 2-4.

ATEM switchers aren't HDCP compliant, so Blu-rays will be a problem.
My Biases:

You NEED training.
You NEED a desktop.
You NEED a calibrated (non-computer) display.
