Hello all,

I intend to build the game news studio (streaming game to our server and Youtube, twitch, ...) which contents are: Game Match Live (LOL), Game News, ...

And this is my project (map): https://drive.google.com...VUdmM1k/edit?usp=sharing

PC 1 & 2: caster in-game (or playing game)
PC 3: Streaming PC with 4 capture cards: 3 capture cards (BM decklink mini recorder) to recorder from PC 1,2,4, 1 capture card (BM Intensity Pro) to recorder from Canon HF M52 + output to LCD TV which 2 MCs (casters) will see what streaming realtime.
PC 4: Video Editor
All PCs specs use Core I7, 16GB RAM, GTX660 DC2OCPH - 2GD5


And my question is:
1. Does my map (above) is correct, logicthic?
2. Do 4 capture cards work perfect in same time?
3. Does Vmix have enough power to support my project? (Because untill now, i still confuse to choose Vmix or WireCast)

Some demo which i found on youtube, this is my target to do in the future:
-

-
(from 10s with 2 MC)

Thank you!

Setup will work. Used something very similar to stream Starcraft WCS Challenger this week that has just gone.

Hi!

Please note that the BlackMagic Intensity Pro which you want to use as a monitor AND camera input for your stream only can;

A; While having an input (your camera) the output is ONLY loopback from the input source, aka you will get camera out of the output if you have it as input

B; External Output from vMix as you specified when you DON'T have an input active, it doesn't have the hardware to get an input at the same time of showing a different output

If this would be a problem I'd like to recommend either buying a separate mini monitor and recorder, another Intensity pro for output or an DeckLink Studio if any of your devices should support SDI in/out.

EDIT: I can't seem to find the logic of the "webcams" shown on the map, connected to the casters' pcs, mind to tell us?


Good luck on your project,

Håvard

If you are going all HDMI in and outs this would be the way to go.

Please note that it often becomes a hassle to get all the computer outputs working in 1080p30 which is the highest supported by the MiniRecorder (read 30 FPS max read from the source), and I've never been able to go duplicated 30p using a nVidia card, only AMD Radeon ones.

If you'd like to both remove the hassle of getting it all working AND upgrade the framerates to 60p you need a high bandwidth capture card (like http://www.oupree.com/OP...ideo-Capture-Card.html), personally I've never tried one, but I know many have and they should work great


Good luck on your project,
Håvard

I use the Oupree card and it works fine. Have recently ordered the dual card so you get 2 x 1080p60fps HDMI inputs.

Twitch has always supported 60fps as far as I know. Youtube is still only 30fps.
