Can you bring mevo camara into webcaster x2?
No. The Mevo doesn't connect to anything other than its own system
hello Joseph, is the Meebo for live streaming and recording, or just live streaming
Both (and it's Mevo not Meebo). Good luck!
Thanks for sharing your experiences with all this streaming gear. I’ve been on the fence for a while on what hardware encoder/streaming device to get. At first I thought I would get the AJA Helo, then I was certain I was going to get the Vidiu Pro (mainly due to cellular bonding), but now I’m not sure anymore. I think I might have to save up for a LiveU Solo. The company I work for uses the big LiveU units and they’re almost always rock solid.
Thanks again. Subbed.

Hey Joseph, I just bought the SlingStudio solution, seems pretty easy. Any plans to review that?
I hadn’t planned on it but can certainly try to get one. What do you like about it?
This is probably one of the most entertaining live stream education live streams I've ever seen. haha hope that made sense.
Thank you! Makes about as much sense as I do 😝
really appreciate the effort you are putting into these shows!
Great video, taking inception to a new level.
Bought an X2 based on your review, and LOVE it, and the USB audio is great news for my setup.

Excellent content (as always) Joseph! One small note that I wanted to make a slight correction at around 52:50 you mention the "Blackmagic Mini Converter" whereas people should be looking for the "UltraStudio Mini Recorder" instead. I just didn't want people buying the mini converter and being disappointed :)
Great show Joseph, amazing you got that all to work :-) I have been testing out vMix recently however like Wirecast it is dependent on the computer, and I seldom trust those for something like streaming, so what I am looking to do is actually use vMix to do my lower third captions and video playout but take that output into my ATEM switcher and use the Vidiu for streaming. So, using a relatively low spec laptop to add good quality graphics and playout into the stream via the ATEM, plus you get a backup switcher and streaming device thrown in :-)
Interesting! Pumped into the ATEM how? A computer’s HDMI out?
Yep, just tested it and I can get a live title into the ATEM, editable live from vMix, keyed on to the program and also with the ability to playout video content etc. I think this has some useful potential :-) I'll try and put a little video together to show what I am doing next week.
Ah, ok. So you can’t send an alpha out over HDMI (AFAIK), but a green key may work. Or any color; the ATEM is customizable. Do let me know how you get on though! I’ve seen other software graphics packages for the ATEM but I don’t think I’ve ever seen one that works in real-time. But there has to be something!
How will you key the graphics? Sounds like a great idea if it works!
