There is no answer for me
We could answer this question in a few different ways without speaking with you further, but here it is. You would be able to input all four cameras onto the Atem mini pro and output the results over a single capture card (which is built into the device). Multiview allows you to easily see all four inputs at once. Another great thing about the mini pro is that it is a hardware encoder, so you don't have to use OBS (software encoder) for anything unless you want to use it for other purposes. The way I prefer to connect the mini pro to my local network is via Ethernet. You don't need a computer to stream your content if you do it this way. Thus, you won't have to worry about your streams getting wiped out if your computer crashes. In addition to freeing up the USB port, this setup also works A mini pro has a USB C port, which can be used to attach an SSD drive for recording streams. You can search for us and give us a call if you have any further questions. I am a BlackMagic installations specialist for the religion and government sectors in North Carolina. It would be my pleasure to speak with you in order to ensure this is a good match. Call Chad or Carder if you have any questions about BlackMagic gear because they are the most competent.
The device cannot be powered from outside, it runs on its own power. It is technically possible to power it with an external PoE converter that has a minimum 36 W and a barrel (12 VDC) input.
Selected User Reviews For Blackmagic Design ATEM Mini Pro HDMI Live Stream Switcher
When I bought a cheap $30 USB 2, I was amazed at its quality. By the time I got into OBS and tested out my 1080p Camcorders and EZVID mini cams with the devices I had, I realized that I did not need this box to do switching, sizing, and basic overlays for streaming (or ATEM macros are far more complicated and I need a Bluetooth keyboard to easily switch between scenes with hotkeys. OBS scenes are more powerful and I can switch scenes easily on the fly with hotkeys. It's true that I am not aiming for 4K. With my Lenovo Thinkpad X1 laptop, I can connect one camera per USB port without running into problems. Do your research on OBS before you put your hopes in it You will find an order box there. In any case, you will be using OBS as your portal anyway. As an added bonus, you can hook up your iPhone or PC to an audio mixer and a streaming device such as iRig Stream.

A different store just sent me this product There is a serious flaw in this plan. There was a Program/IMAG output on the Atem Mini originally. However, it did not possess the Multi-Purpose Model You can view the feature here. MultiView has been touted as an addition to the Pro version, so now the Pro version has this added feature. However, in order to use it you must give up one of its most important previous features - the availability of the menu bar.
It does not allow IMAG output - it only permits one or the other if it is the output port In a 4-part combination we would need BOTH! Wouldn't you think that with a 4-part One in / One As part of the production of an IMAG or LiveStream, users would want to see the input and output choices on the switchers used for Live Streaming and/or IMAG? It was really one of those major implications of all of the hype surrounding the Mini Pro product. There has been a MAJOR failure in this.

Great little switcher with some cool features, but it only has HDMI inputs. Atem's mini pro is definitely impressive in terms of its capabilities.
As a pro technical director, I've had an extensive experience directing shows using Grass Valley, Sony, and Tricaster switchers. For that reason, I am extremely critical of the form factor and function of switchers. The limited number of buttons and only the HDMI inputs have their I was able to perform everything I expected and so much more just using the switcher out of the box along with atem software I already had installed on my laptop. It was used for a subtraction subsystem I was originally using my 8th ME row with macros for talent, controlling what they see on their screens like a stage monitor, but discovered that it was too many simultaneous clicks and the row was needed Luckily, I had the Atem Mini Pro in there, and was able to quickly and easily install switching software on the tablet, so someone else could easily handle my sub switch! I can't believe how amazing it is! I immediately purchased it as soon as I saw that black magic added the multi-view feature to the Atem Mini, which is now included with the new Pro model. It is a small console, and everything has to be plugged right into it, making it look sloppy on a desk. This tiny machine has all the power and functionality of bigger machines, but is small and portable. It's a done deal for me! Despite what you might think, HDMI is not a professional Although this switcher is billed as being a pro switcher, it packs many of the pro features of the more expensive Atems. Despite its low price, it does have some advanced features, which most expensive models do not have. This product allows you to record to two thumb drives with a USB C As well as the ability to use a computer without streaming directly to the web. It's a pleasure for me to be here. you're a pro or an aspiring pro who uses console switches and requires only 4 inputs, this switcher is perfect for you. A price point of this magnitude deserves special attention. Due to it's small size and speed, I am using it for some of my small jobs instead of my $50k tricaster.

The pros are The recording and streaming options are very fast and easy to setup. An awesome multi-tasking tool Take a look. •A number of other options are also available cons include Initially, the program needs to be installed on a PC. The only way to stream is by connecting your computer to its WiFi and sharing it with the laptop.

There were so many ways in which I was disappointed in this. While watching videos before the event, I thought that was all there was to it, sadly no. Would have been better off buying the last version of the game It is likely that most will still use an OBS along with pro presenter or similar software. In my opinion, if you only intend to use it for multiple cameras and gaming, it is fine. My biggest complaint in this regard is that there is no headphone jack for enjoying Having multiple screens on one port is convenient, with a There is a problem finding and downloading the Atem software. I had a major problem getting the sound and video to line up when I did not use the HDMI source for sound. After some time, they managed to fix Finding something else would be a good idea. I don't think this is a pro at all. Using something like OBS and a single camera source, their Black Magic Mini is just as good as their more expensive mini. It would be better to buy the last version of this product and you would.

We feel it was a good investment. In addition to the mini pro, we will keep two external hard drives. The pro has a nicer TV presentation, which is a must for either one, but it is not as flexible as the pro in things like picture in picture. There are three things to have at hand a PC, a TV (about 28 inches or so is fine), and the computer must have a wired Ethernet port (this can be a USB ethernet adapter) with either the mini or It is not possible to attach a USB camera without an adapter, and the mini does not have a headphone jack - these are my two biggest complaints about these devices. Monitoring the audio is extremely important for me, so I do not know about the pro. To operate it, you need a program like OBS It is important to note that OBS has only one video input and one audio input, which makes it a set up, start, and then you only need to use it to start As well as YouTube and Facebook, we consume our live video through restream.
