This guy took years off and apparently spent time on a mountain digging deep into his psych and came back twice as strong as before

Wow! I have been searching for months for an inexpensive way to add a viewfinder/monitor to one of my digital cameras or cell phone. You nailed it - I hope. I ordered about 2/3 of the items on your list. Some E-Bay items were no longer there so I had to make some substitutions and that took a while. I hope everything works together.

Thanks a million!

I just found out your channel and I'm glad that you're back!
Keep up the very creative work you're doing and thanks for sharing it with us!

Great Scott! You're back on top of your game! It's helpful tips like this that made you so popular in your first life. I still use several of your old tips (like the $56 7" monitor with the added Sony battery adapter). I built a few of the PVC pieces, but I replaced them with the real things shortly. Thanks for another great idea!

I was talking about you to a YouTuber friend of mine about DIY camera setups, glad to see you doing videos again! I miss your content & looks like I have some catching up to do.

[AntwonisheaHardy]

Thank you for the details on the exact equipment needed!

[actioncom]

I got one of these.
And my God, emphasis on finding the right software for this equipment. It took me a little while to figure that out. But I don't regret my purchase. It does a great job.

I bought that like 3 weeks ago. Haven't used it yet though. Lol. Nice to know that it really is a good deal. Just decided to take a chance with it.

[rogermurphy]

This is exactly the information I needed! I'm getting on Amazon/eBay right now!

[WolfsHaven]

I love these things. I bought 3 of them to do a 3 camera setup in OBS and it works flawlessly. It also works well to capture and import graphics from a video game console to OBS.

Shortly thereafter I bought the ATEM Mini switcher from Blackmagic not as frugal at $300 bucks but easier to control.

With either system you can setup a full live TV production studio fairly cheaply.

A good free product for on the fly lower thirds is H2R Graphics. It works well with both systems. There is a free plugin for OBS out now too but I haven't tested it.

[jcmimages]

Yep, works for me. The software allows 16:9 on my phone, another app that I downloaded first would only do anamorphic 4:3. and would not do full screen at all. Excellent, many thanks.

This is the video I didn’t know I needed!

[OverlandTrailer]

I have so missed your work! Thanks again.

[LostWax]

Hey, that's brilliant! Amazing how quickly things come down in price- a couple years ago I thought I might try live streaming, and the cheapest capture box I could find was $200. Thanks for sharing!

[lemmonsinmyeyes]

This is pretty interesting. I remember paying 400$ for a wireless HDMI thing, and you did it for like 50$. (Sad noises)

[ImTheDaveman]

This is really cool schtuff, man! Thanx for bringing this to our attention

[cocoscabana]

THANK YOU SOOO MUCH...i have 2 tablets sitting around.. and i was trying to use those instead of buying a mirror contraption or pay the 15-$ min. for a monitor, as I am just starting out..

[fellawhofilms]

You are amazing. Keep doing more technical videos.

[josegovea]

Omg I found u again in my life. I use to watch you yrs ago.

[justvish]

You are brilliant. Thanks for the tip. Love from fellow Youtuber from the EAST COAST of India 😍
