Hello,

For streaming im using Vmix, and recently i bought Blackmagic Studio 4k Pro Cameras. They have build-in Tally lights, which are working PnP with ATEM switchers software.

But is it any way that i can activate those build-in lights via Vmix only?

Short and simple. No. The cameras get tally information through the return signal. Sdi or HDMI. Without a atem switcher you would have to get the Arduino sdi shield and code that to embed the needed data.

There is ways aroud that. I'm buying a broken Atem Television Studio HD with some inputs/outputs broken to get the pgm/aux out into the cameras and have a way to sent camera control and tally info to the cameras.

Blackmagic have just brought out a whole bunch of new SMTPE 2110 compatible devices, it looks like their future direction is having 2110 ethernet ports on all future devices.

It's great because you can plug any device anywhere on your 10G network and it can send uncompressed video anywhere.

They are upgrading the Blackmagic Studio Camera to 2110.. this means: DC power, Video, audio, return video, return audio, talkback, camera control AND tally can run over one single CAT6A cable, this is AMAZING to simplify setup when doing live streaming or in a studio environment.

vMIX can you PLEASE add tally control output (Via 2110 or SDI card) for the studio camera, because vMix combined with a 2110 camera would be complete heaven for so many people!!!

In the past you could use third party devices like Skaarhoj to insert this into the SDI cable, with with 2110 it's ethernet based so this won't work, the ethernet cable goes from the Decklink card to a switch, and the camera plugs into the switch.
