00:00:00 Intro
00:54 I shot some video with Blackmagic Camera and the output files show as "16:9" in QuickTime Player. However, they came out in 4:3. Is there any way to salvage my footage? ([link])
03:39 VMware Desktop Hypervisor Pro Apps Now Available for Personal Use. What are some practical uses in production - virtual or physical, and how will you use it (if at all)?
05:21 Morning Everyone! What does the Panel think of the new family of Hemisphere mics from Universal Audio? How do these stack up for live streaming in H.o.W. settings or are they better suited for recording purposes? [link]
07:47 Canon released the new R1 as "Flagship Model for R system" at midnight last night. Why would they have a midnight press release? [link]
10:12 Whar are your Google IO takeaways? Gemini talks to Gmail, AskPhotos, Agents, Astra, Flash, Veo, Trillium, AI Overview, Gems, Tokens, Gemma, LearnLM . . . [link]
18:56 I've been dealing with DAW control issues using Logic and my Yamaha DM3 (confirmed by support as being known firmware bugs.) For a studio use case, would you change the mixer or add a DAW control surface as a workaround?
20:27 Do you have experience with programmatically raising or normalizing audio levels using ffmpeg-normalize? Is it essential to have an audio file with the least amount of compression when performing a process like this?
23:44 Love Bert Monroy's work. As a School of Visual Arts alumni, with a BFA in Illustration 1987, I'd love to know when he taught there and any galleries that he now shows his work?
24:33 How can I create custom Multiview for Commentators and other "watchers" I've using an HDMI splitter from the ATEM Mini Extreme ISO. Suggestions?
29:26 With Zoom Room 6 in the Enterprise, is it beneficial to segregate NDI Traffic using discovery server? We have about 8000 rooms world wide
30:10 I can't wait to use Googles A.I. tool to automatically find and organize emailed receipts while creating a spreadsheet of expenses; can you?
37:54 Can Courtney, Jeff and Bill describe their lighting setups? They have nice separation of themselves from their backgrounds today.
41:32 We got to get this guy on a show (Hugh Hou). He is one of the best 360 and 180 vr people on CZcams. In this video he was showing Unreal Engine into CZcams Live 360. [link]
42:10 Has anyone heard of or used Quickture AI video editing tool? [link]
43:20 Do bone conduction microphones exist in the way that bone conduction headphones exist. If so what brand and where?
45:55 Lectrosonics released a new version of Wireless Designer. Can this be used as a general purpose spectrum analyzer? [link]
46:48 I am planning to sell my house and would like to preserve a scanned version of my home as a memory. Is there a service that OH could recommend that is reasonably priced in the NY/NJ/PA area.
49:21 Rupert Neve Designs claims the RNDI direct box "enhances the sound" of any line-level instrument or source. Would those enhancements be noticeable or subtle? Would that depend on the source? ([link])
52:44 Could this be the final death of the orange dot? I think so.

56:38 Blackmagic 2110 IP Mini BiDirect 12G Converter has a 5-pin XLR talkback headset connection. Can a floor Director use this for comms without connecting a video signal to the SDI ports?
57:43 Jeffrey Powers youtube channel just hit 10 million youtube views. What do you predict for Geekazine youtube views from now through 2034 and what would you like to see Jeffrey change and review?
