Seems to be to my eye but is it’s off by .001 milliseconds don’t shot the messenger
I honestly bought them from Best Buy because Best Buy will allow returns. They play nice together and if I need another one I can get one quick at a store.
I did have a video signal problem the last stream I did but it was actually the hdmi mini cable going to the camera that was the issue.
Like anything else wireless with video there can be a few issues. Main thing is to make sure there is a line of sight between the receiver and transmitter. I keep the receivers up above the machines and games.
I’m a bit of a perfectionist and like the idea of using the same brand and not requiring the HDMI splitter. This is going to be expensive. I’ll do a trial run with the Monoprice/Nyrius combo and see how it comes out.
Not sure if a buyer beware is in order here but neither of my monoprice HDMI audio inserter and audio extractor works between my capture card (magewell) and the monoprice RX unit, which I find extremely odd. So I might need another set of splitters. My stack of HDMI one-jobbers will look like Burger Time when done, lol.
why are you splitting the audio out ? I guess for a mixer?
I’ve been using the mono price Nyrius setup for couple of years now and it works ok, I"m using a splitter for the HDCP issue. The nyrius can be a little temperamental. monoprice is pretty bulletproof just a shame its two channels.
The audio extractor was going to tap game audio to the commentator station I’m building. No deal breaker really when I slept on it as the commentators want see/hear the feed rendered by OBS anyway.
Doing a trial run in a couple of weeks with 2 x monoprice (player and PF cams) and the Nyrius WS55 (score cam).
They are sensitive to the power supply. At high bitrates they WILL drop the signal when using a cheap or under powered source, it will resync fine after a few seconds, very intermittent annoying and hard to troubleshoot issue.
GoPro Hero 7 will not establish a link. If anyone is using a newer GoPro successfully, please let me know.
No issues with any of my other cameras, Panasonic G85, GX85, G9 or Sony CX405.
Amazing piece of kit I must say. Such a shame you can’t run more than two.
EDIT: The Nyrius WS55 works just fine with the GoPro Hero 7.
To go with the two Blackbird and one Nyrus setup, it appears I would need to go with an all HDMI camera setup, correct? Are there any wireless options for the USB Logitechs or would that not be recommended? Finally, how is audio transmitted wirelessly? Through one of the cameras? Thanks everyone.
A friend of mine is looking to getting into streaming – he is running a laptop (2019 macbook pro). Most of my knowledge of capture cards is limited to internal cards. Are there any good options external capture card options for ~3 hdmi inputs? Or is he looking at probably 3 separate capture cards?
I’m trying to talk him out of trying to make the mac work. I tried streaming with a mac years ago and it was problems all day. Is that still true today?
But the issue with mac is that you can’t charge it at the rate it can dump power out of the battery so mid stream the thing shuts down! Even if you run windows on if.
I haven’t seen an external capture card that supports more than one HDMI input yet, only a passthrough output which isn’t helpful.
Currently, I have a USB-C hub that runs my playfield cam (Elgato Camlink 4k), player cam (Generic USB HDMI capture), 3.5mm to USB capture, and Elgato: Wave audio mic. Then, I plug in my Stream Deck and either another generic HDMI to USB capture for LVDS or a C922 webcam for DMD (Soon to switch to DMD Extender).
I’ve been exploring Thunderbolt based external PCIe enclosures to use a multi-HDMI capture card, but it’s a really expensive experiment for things to potentially not work. I’m having a hard time finding capture card port speed requirements vs. enclosure power/port speed limits.
Finding an enclosure for my Magewell m.2 card to Thunderbolt has been equally challenging. Lots of NVMe options, but that’s for SSDs, not for m.2 based capture cards.
I’ve been using external Thunderbolt PCI enclosure with windows 10 for ages it works well using magewell 4 port cards and the new elgato card although the latter I’ve not used in anger. I use the enclosure with my laptop (razer) as a mobile solution.
Let me hook it up to a mac and see if it works.
Interesting in the M2 version of magewell - how are using it? Does it have a header or something that you connect ?
I’d expect the nvme adapters to work, as nvme is just a protocol on top of pcie, and uses the pcie bits of the m.2 connector. The ones I wouldn’t expect to work are the ones designed for sata m.2 ssds, and wwan (cellular) devices since they use the sata and usb bits respectively, instead of the pcie bits.
Anyone have any good recommendations for mobile internet? I’m getting ready for Houston Arcade Expo/Space City Open this year, and in the past we’ve always just shelled out the almost $300 to have a high speed internet line dropped into the room for the weekend. This works great, but I feel like I could probably get some kind of wireless solution for less.
Old post but my solution for a wireless rig was to ditch the webcams and use 2 android phones as IP cams for the player and score, then an hdmi transmitter for the playfield cam. I also have a cheap wireless karaoke kit that I use for player sounds.
