Out of Inputs/Outputs. What am I doing wrong?

PostWed May 11, 2022 8:28 pm

I have an ATEM Mini Pro ISO, connecting to a Macbook Air M1.

I used a USB C port with HDMI to try and connect the switcher to the laptop. No luck. I think HDMI to a monitor and the output (for recording or streaming) to the laptop. Finally there was a connection for the control software. But with HDMI to a monitor and USB to a laptop for control software, I was out of outputs to connect an SSD drive to record. I used the same USB hub > laptop and plugged in a drive. However the control software did not recognize it as a drive.

I need to...
Connect to a monitor for multi-view.
Connect to laptop for software control
Connect to drive for recording.

This is all for multi-cam recording, as well as cam and web cam recording.

Any ideas?

You need to use:
- HDMI for multiview
- USB-C to your SSD
- Ethernet to your laptop for software control

You can not use both web cam recording and ISO recording to SSD at the same time (this is not supported by the USB design)

Great. Thanks so much for your help. That makes perfect sense.
