Hello,

I have a problem and hope someone can help me.
I have 3 cameras and would like to preview 3 separate video inputs so that I can see what each camera is showing. How do I implement this sensibly and with the best quality?

About the technology:
My predecessor ordered the following equipment.
- 3 Sony a7sIII
- Atem Mini Pro
- Stream Deck XL

I don't think I can do that with this euipment, or can i do that?
The Atem has enough HDMI inputs, but vmix can only show me 1 preview image and I would have to switch between camera1 / camera2 or camera3 on the Atem. But I would like to have all 3 cameras displayed as a separate video input.

Excuse my bad English. I hope you understand what I mean exactly.

Best regards
Sebastian

Have you tried using the USB-C connection from the Atem to the PC for your input to vMix (as a webcam), and then set the HDMI o/p on the Atem to MultiView, which can be fed to a monitor (or captured into the PC for use in vMix purely as a camera preview image, possibly sent to a FullScreen output). I think that's the best you can get from the Atem without a whole load of extra external kit to split the HDMI camera feeds and capture each one into vMix, which pretty much eliminates the need for an Atem in the first place.

No, I haven't done that yet.
I already thought that it was not possible with the atem. It doesn't matter if it doesn't work with the atem mini pro. What would be the best solution to implement this? Has anyone any good experiences? What hardware is recommended here? I would be very grateful for a cost-effective solution.
