In any case, if your viewers will likely include smartphones and/for tablets, I continue recommending all videos be distributed with one of the following framerates: In an upcoming section, IвЂ™ll go into more detail about the many CDNs supported by Ecamm Live.Д®camm Live offers a variety of framerates (temporal resolution) for the recording or stream, but IвЂ™ll leave those details for the Wish List section at the end of this article. You should use the highest spatial resolution offered by the combination of your cameras, your computer and your Internet upload bandwidth, knowing that your CDN (content distribution network) will create and offer lower spatial resolution versions for those viewers whose connection or equipment need it to be lower.

Other hardware NDI cameras or NDI apps for Android or iOS or iPadOS should also work, like NewTekвЂ™s own в‰€US$20 (although temporarily free) NDI HX Camera app which I have not tested yet since it was launched after my clientвЂ™s installation.

Via the NDI protocol, which I have covered in many articles, my client uses three mounted iPhone cameras which were running the в‰€US$10 app called NDICam, which can broadcast the particular cameraвЂ™s signal via wifi (as my client currently does) or Ethernet, with the appropriate converters on the iOS or iPadOS device.

Of course, I have had over a decade of experience with Blackmagic. There are also two other brands recommended by Ecamm: Magewell and Pengo, which I have never used anywhere. My client chose to purchase two CamLink 4K interfaces, one for each of his Panasonic GH4 cameras.

Cameras with an HDMI output (or even with SDI in some cases) can be connected either with a Blackmagic card (or box via Thunderbolt or USB 3) or Elgato CamLink 4K.

The webcam in my clientвЂ™s computer appeared, but we didnвЂ™t use it.

Up to 5 remote guests can connect via the built-in NDI-powered Skype integration. Two of the local connected cameras are HDMI, and two are wireless via NDI. This article will cover Ecamm Live and its integration as I helped a client last year to create a five camera studio in Miami, Florida, US.

Many readers will recall that NDI is a royalty-free software standard developed by NewTek, which I first covered at its historic birth in 2016 with NewTekвЂ™s NDI is now the lingua franca among broadcast brands. Ecamm Live features NDI among other camera connection possibilities. This is my first review article on Ecamm Live, a multicam mixer app for macOS-powered computers for live streaming and/or local recording.
