Webcam video (via chat apps like Zoom)

  • advantage: affordable
  • disadvantage: 30 fps chat apps not optimized for 23.98 fps video

Zoom settings

stream direct from Avid Media Composer using NDI

  • see: https://avid.secure.force.com/pkb/articles/en_US/How_To/stream-MC-video-NDI
  • within Avid version 2018.7 and higher you can send video to stream (button on timeline)
  • need NDI software (free)
  • can stream via Zoom or Skype and other NDI compatible chat
  • "OpenIO NDI is incompatible with Nitris DX and Mojo DX hardware, so those need to be turned off and the system rebooted. Media Composer must then be run in software mode." [1]
    • "With the Nitris DX being EOL, I doubt the drivers have been updated to recognize the Open NDI option. The DX has a specific driver, unlike all other modern Open I/O's." [2]

screen share via Zoom (no hardware)

  • some report lag using this method [3]
  • others not: "Screen Sharing a video source in Zoom creates a lag of about 500ms. I think that is quite reasonable." [4]

Avid DNxID $999 US (used for Avid Media Composer)

  • "use the output from the DNxID and run it in the input from the DNxID, then you will see the picture in Zoom" [5]

BlackMagic Web Presenter $600 US

  • see: https://sofimarshall.com/real-time-remote-editing/
  • Blackmagic Web Presenter is fed video (and audio) from Avid via HDMI or SDI and sends back a web-cam compatible signal via USB that can be shared on Zoom chat
  • audio from chat microphone and audio from Avid are combined using $99 Loopback software (sounds similar to SoundFlower)

Blackmagic ATEM Mini $435 CAD

AVerMedia Live Gamer Portable 2 (GC510) $209 US

  • AVerMedia Live Gamer Portable 2 is fed video (720p/23.976 works, 1080p/23.976 does not) via HDMI from Avid sends back a web-cam compatible signal via USB that can be transmitted via Zoom or FaceTime or Skype
  • HDMI loops through the device back to client monitor
  • device has microphone input; audio from Avid HDMI combines with that in web-cam signal
  • Avid audio sounded bad (tinny) in tests
  • see: http://storage.avermedia.com/web_release_www/GC510/GC510_Datasheet_20170218.pdf

Magewell HDMI to USB 3.0 Dongle $402.42 CAD

  • HDMI in, web-cam out [6]
  • because there is no loop-through, an HDMI splitter would be needed if you needed to send HDMI to your monitor

HDMI Share via Zoom Rooms $49 US/month + hardware

  • Zoom will detect HDMI source from these HDMI devices:
  • requires Zoom Rooms $49 US/month
    • "Zoom Rooms a software-based room system that runs on a Mac or Windows computer, and uses an iPad, Android or Windows tablet as the room controller" [7]
