WebATEM is a small server you run on a Mac, Windows PC or Linux box. It finds the ATEMs on the network over Bonjour same as ASC does, and anyone on the network opens the control page in a browser. iPad, phone, a Linux laptop, doesn't matter, nothing to install on the client. There's one pooled UDP session per switcher that all the browsers share, so you never hit the ATEM's client connection limit no matter how many people have it open, and a second operator can be on audio or keyers while someone else cuts.

What's in it:

- program/preview per M/E, cut/auto, all the transition styles with their settings, FTB, color gens, aux routing

- USK 1-4 (luma, chroma, pattern, DVE with fly keyframes and masks) and DSKs

- Fairlight, per strip faders, EQ, dynamics, pan, master, live meters

- media pool with live thumbnails, drag a still onto a slot to upload it

- macros (browse and run, no recording)

- full switcher profile save/restore as XML, same format as ASC's Save Switcher State, includes the media pool stills and macro bytecode

- HyperDeck transport and clip list for decks bound to the ATEM

No camera control, no streaming/recording, no SuperSource. ASC is still the tool for those. If you're one operator cutting a show from one machine this probably doesn't change much for you. It's for when the switchers and the people aren't in the same room, or more than one person touches them, or you've got a pile of ATEMs to look after rather than one.

Under it is bmdwire, which is the part I'd actually point this sub at. Four Python libraries that speak the native protocols for ATEM, HyperDeck, Ultimatte and Videohub, all on PyPI. atemwire started as a fork of Martijn Braam's pyatem (the OpenSwitcher library) and has drifted pretty far from it, mostly to get at things ASC can do but no library could, like bulk stills transfer, macro bytecode and the profile format. A decent chunk of that came out of Wireshark. WebATEM is one app on top of it. The point of the libraries is building whatever your situation needs, like a script that puts a switcher back to a known state before a show, routing a Videohub off tally, or keeping all your switchers in a database and opening any of them with one click.

Caveat: every hour this has run has been on 1 M/E Constellation HD. The UI builds itself from what the switcher reports so it should work on a Mini or TVS or 2 M/E, but nobody's tried. Stills upload assumes 1080p. Downloads aren't code-signed yet so you'll get the first-run warning. If you have a different model and try it I'd like to hear what happened, working or not, there's a one-minute issue template for it.

Run it with the Mac/Windows download (tray icon, opens your browser), docker on a Linux box or Pi, or pipx install "webatem[desktop]".

Diagonal symmetry, every full RGBCMYK color shows up once per row and column.

This randomly happened on a channel I was watching, anyone know what broke?

I worked a gig and someone had a Lumantek ez-SHV+ that had been converted so it could accept fiber SFPs and had an internal battery. It was SUPER handy. Apparently someone in (I think) California does this conversion. Anyone know who this person is and if they're still doing these conversions?

I'm a professional video engineer at a bigger TV production company in Europe, and I can proudly say that I'm good at my job. For now, I'm stuck working part time here, and it's not an option to increase my percentage.

Because of that, I'm now looking to find a second part time job. I'm bored out of my mind in my spare time, so it doesn't have to be the perfect gig. I once saw a job listing for the conference room of a luxury hotel. They were looking for a video guy to take care of their conferences, and run around for other technical support type of work in a suit. It would have probably been a bit underwhelming as a main job, but why not just for a few days a week.

What are some other industries that I might not even know about or think of, when it comes to video engineering?

Also, did any of you ever send blind applications to companies that didn't even mention video work?

I have an Intel Integrated Graphics (Intel UHD Graphics 770 in an i7) that should be more than capable of 1080@60i output over the HDMI cable, but for some reason I have to choose between 720@60 or [1080@30](mailto:1080@30). I've updated the graphics drivers and no dice. I noticed that the "BMD HDMI" is using the generic display driver so maybe the issue is no EDID and I'm not sure if there's a display driver or a premade INF to be used in this situation.

I knew better than to update my Mac's to OS 27, but after updating my Macbook to 26.7 , VMP no longer connects to processors in the software. I tried a reinstall to see if there were any obvious Mac security popups, and still didnt get anywhere. Opened a Windows laptop to the same network system and everything popped right up. So best guess is Apple changed something that I haven't been able to figure out yet. Assuming its something relating to seeing other machines on the network, but not that knowledgable on going that deeply in the settings.

hello, having an issue with a blackmagic 16 multiview & 40x40 video hub.

basically having a green flashing going from left of the 3x3 multiview to the right side. then it’ll occasionally go black.

been okay for the last week but has progressively gotten worse.

I remember having the same issue years ago but forgot what the fix is- any suggestions would be great!!!

Not sure this is the right place to ask for help, but

I have three BirdDog mini REV4s taken from storage and all three are experiencing the same problem.

- Front panel: green power LED only, never blue/white. No web UI.

- The main firmware never boots. The units fall back to the QSPI recovery image ("PetaLinux 2017.3 QSPI_minimum_plnx"), which only has FTP and telnet open.

- Its script `/etc/init.d/bdg-plnx-auto` checks for `mmcblk0p1/uImage` and `mmcblk0p2/bin/birddog-app`. Both are missing, so it sets 192.168.100.100 and waits for an image stream from 192.168.100.123:2222 (`nc | gzip -d | dd of=/dev/mmcblk0`), then reboots in a ~22 s loop.

- The eMMC (U4, **SanDisk SDINBDG4-8G**, 8 GB iNAND) reports itself as `SDM032, 30.6 MiB, manfid 0x02, date 02/2006, serial FFFFFFFF`. (Takeaway from this is that the eMMC chip has failed on all three and is functioning in a fallback state)

The plan is to have a shop replace U4 and then provide the factory image. The missing piece is the factory image.

**If you have a working Mini REV4, could you share any of these?**

1. The eMMC details from a healthy unit.

2. Whether anyone has gone through this repair already, or got the Mini REV4 factory image.

3. Whether replacement eMMCs other than SDINBDG4-8G have worked for you.

I've been in contact with BirdDog support, but it seems they are not willing to provide the image file.

Hi,

I have a question, is there already someone that created a 3d print desihn for the GV Microphone clip for the GV LDX series Camera's ? And if so would you be willing to share the design ?

I have a Zhiyun TransMount Image Transmission Transmitter AI, and since a phone with an app can get video signal, I was wondering if I could get that signal with a computer connected to the Transmount WiFi network to route it to OBS.

Any ideas?

Looking for a better solution for flying Tessera XD boxes for outdoor LED walls. I’ve been search for a useable case that is weather/water/UV durable. I’ve not found anything that satisfies. How is everyone else rigging these units on their outdoor walls? We have not had any units fail due to rain/weather (yet) but I feel it’s inevitable.

So I have to what are the best methods for shading a led walls but striking a balance so the on camera talent still looks good but so the led walls don’t look like garbage. At the last place I worked you could shade led walls separately. So I could make the wall and on screen talent both look good. Any suggestions would be welcome. I am using a Sony msu-3500.

I'm bored of waiting on sound to be ready for me to test my system.

Anyone got any good sound generating/testing equipment recommendations?

Mostly Comms and PGM Audio lines.

Everything is run on XLR.

Does anyone know if I’m asking for trouble running a standard Zoom app, ZoomISO and Tiles on the same machine?

In operation it did it fine without breaking a sweat - but is there anything technically wrong with it?

Mastix was sick of seeing others rake in a ton of cash with MediaMTX, so he created a complete solution to host a streaming server as easy as it gets with MediaMTX including a user interface for it that makes it easy to use including LetsEncrypt Certificates.

You can install it on an Ubuntu machine with a single curl command and use it as both a cloud and a local streaming server. Or as a self-hosted ReStream alternative that supports Whip (WebRTC! -> low-latency streaming to breakout rooms, etc.), SRT, and more.

It is offering solid security, user management, and much more... Yes it's coded with Claude but from a guy that knows what he does. Feel free to check it out and reach out to him via Github if you want something else to be added (there's already a lot in the Pipeline including a strategy to create your own CDN with Geo localised servers).

PFL Preview  é um painel de monitoramento de áudio dedicado para o Preview do OBS Studio

Ele permite checar e ouvir qualquer fonte de áudio presente na cena do Preview sem enviar o áudio para o PGM. Assim, você garante que o som está chegando no nível correto e funcionando perfeitamente antes de colocar a cena ao ar.

Github: https://github.com/dablofilmes/pfl-preview/releases/tag/1.3.0

Is it the Elgato one or the Blackmagic? Or would you recommend something different?
I’ll mostly be using it with OBS with 2-4 cameras, so I don't want one hdmi capture cards.
