This is great content. I manage a High School podcast. And I am considering filming a few episodes. In your opinion what do you think would be the most efficient / slimline way to record their podcast and put it out online? We have the Rodecaster Pro, Canon DSLR's, Mac Computers. Anything other than just hitting record and then taking that footage, editing it and throwing it up on YouTube? My ideal scenario is that my students do this and upload it themselves. Is there a piece of software you would recommend to capture audio and video. They are not streaming. Just recording a podcast and we want to introduce video.

Pat- trying to jump into this world. I want to give a live demonstration via Zoom with no lag via the audio and video, is that doable? Your presentation is great and I believe the harware/software you have presented will fit the bill. Before I purchase, just want to get a sense of the live presentation by me that is showing a clip concurrently with me demonstrating something and the clip will not "lag" or I won't. Thank you for your answer, if you can!

cant do anything without stream deck so this is mainly about the stream
deck

Does your Sony ZV-1 charge through the USB connection? I thought it was supposed to, but mine died on me during a stream. 🤷🏻‍♂️

$20 a month, insanity, why don't they just sell the product at a one time price.

[DemetriPanici]

I’ve been wanting to learn how to do this. Sucks I don’t have a Mac

[HappyTrekkers]

Looking forward to your OBS video. I've used OBS for many of the same purposes but it's been to record "in camera" for my own talking head vids rather than do all the MultiCam and overlays in post. But I'd really love to know how to pull it off on a zoom.

Great Tutorial Pat! This condensed all of the info I needed into 1 video! Thanks

[VincentOrtegaJr]

Zv1 only does 720p without properly using a capture card correct?

[LoveLiveSave]

Pat can you recommend a streaming service like ecamm for those of us who don’t own a Mac yet?

If you pin this you will hit 1M Subscribers soon! Really love your content.

thanks Pat! Seems like audio is lagging... can it be synched without any virtual cables?

Thanks Pat, great presentation. Looking at one of the replies it leaves me to believe that you can pre-program a Zoom viewer using Stream Deck to be more interactive. This would allow the program Producer (host) to included them as a direct part of the conversation on the same screen as the speaker. Hopefully I have explained it proper. Am I on the right track?

[JustChopsingPodcast]

I've tried obs, couldn't figure it out at all.

[edwardpileggi]

If you want to present something in a meeting through your virtual camera won’t that be harder to see compared to hitting the present button in zoom?

[Bruuuuuh]

Pat this has opened my eyes and makes me wanna stop thinking i can’t and just do it. thank you.

[joshuadelaughter]

I thought Zoom is a video conference platform like Skype, not a streaming service.

[snippetsofpam]

can you use this set up with mac shortcuts?

[DamianBrown]

So disappointing when after all that cool stuff it's a stream deck you need to switch so smoothly.
