    Ok, so I originally saw this video of the buttons, loved what I saw, followed the link to your website, and noted that the profiles had to be purchased! 😱! Being the frugel tinkerer that I am, I decided to try and just build my own b/c I could learn a ton and save a buck or two.
    Fastforward to 2 days later, and I just could not figure out how to get the "long press" action to work, and the internet wasn't giving me many clues as to how. So I return to this video, and expand the description, and finally noticed your "BUILD" video covering how to recreate the front page.
    Needless to say, I am FINALLY able to continue along with building things to my linking now, and will be purchasing the profile anyways to donate money to your awesome tutorial vids!
    Moral of the story: Yes, I did end up buying the profile anyways, but now I'm quite familiar with "programing" in companion, so I got that going for me at least 😅! Thanks for this video series!

      @@davidjoshuaford hi, Congratulations onnthe amazing work you've done.
      I just got the 15 keys stream deck and I'm considering purchasing your presets but I have a doubt, should I just return my 15 keys stream deck and get the 32 keys one? I need one that makes my work flow simpler and I think I won't need so many keys and combinations to remember...or should I just stick to the 15 keys? (Is it harder with the 15 keys to remember all the presets as there's more functions per key assigned? Or you just removed some of the functions of the 32 keys stream deck in order to make it work on the 15 keys one?) I'll take a decision after I hear back from you, thanks.

    • @davidjoshuaford
      @davidjoshuaford  Před 2 lety +1

      ​@@Kinoptico Hi Kinoptico - great questions - I would recommend returning the 15 button and getting the 32 button instead. In terms of space it occupies on the desk, you'll always need a USB cable connecting it, and the XL is not that much bigger physically than the Regular, and yet the 32 buttons make a HUGE benefit for actually making the operation simpler! Because there are more than double the buttons, you don't have to burrow down into as many submenus, and so it's faster and more intuitive to use. Regarding my own profiles - the 15 & 32 button profiles include all the same functions for the ATEM Mini Pro/ISO range, but I currently only have a 32 button profile for the Extreme. Just on a math basis, the 32-Extreme occupies ~60 Companion pages, so a 15-button profile for the Extreme would need over 120 pages, and Companion only supports 99. If I ever do make a 15-Extreme, I'd need to cut some functions out. Get the 32 button Stream Deck.... you'll fill it up pretty quickly! :)

      To be totally honest with you I found your packs of presents so complete and amazing but at the same time a bit overwhelming for newbies like me in the live streaming area...with so many pages and great options but I guess it's a matter of time to learn them and get used to them. As soon as I get my 32 keys I'm purchasing your presets. Last question...as the creator of this presets pack, is there any particular method you would recommend to make it easier to learn and remember all these pages and pages of presets?

      @@Kinoptico There's certainly a lot in there, true! I am planning on updating the demo videos soon, so that should help walk people through all the capability. The V3.0 profiles also have a Custom page and a Show page - these are designed so you can copy often used buttons from other parts of the profile on to these pages so that all your most commonly used functions are found in one place. Given that many people are multi-tasking between presenting and operating, it's best to pre-program as much of your show ahead of time as possible. So...don't feel the pressure to have to learn everything at once!

The greenscreen in the office is pretty rough and ready - for a proper job I'd light it consistently.

I could try and pitch my church on purchasing ATEM Extreme Pro ISO for the extra inputs, but I don't think I'm going to get them to bite on that.

I want to have 3-PTZ cameras feeding inputs 1-3, and then 1-HDMI Input (No. 4) from the Computer. I want to do both Fill and Key on that input. Could I use a StreamDeck and create macro buttons that would switch my output display type from PC, then the input type on ATM back and forth between Fill and Key? I want to do Lower-Thirds lyrics over the LiveStream video, and then Switch to Full Screen for Announcements, or Videos we may play during the service, so they are on the LiveStream as well. I want to be able to stream from the ATEM to Restream.io

    This is amazing and generous.
    But am I the only one who is thinking this would be better and easier to use buildt in OBS?
    What benefits does this have over a reasonably powered PC with obs and some way of getting the camera as an input?
    I can imagine a hybrid solution where you can power the greenscreening and camera managment in the Atem and controll the layout and other elements in OBS. Combining the controls with companion and steam deck.
    Again. Very generous and inspiring to see.don't get me wrong.

    • @davidjoshuaford
      @davidjoshuaford  Před 2 lety

      Hi Glenn, Are you talking about the H2R graphics part, or the VLC part? You could take an ATEM's multicamera program out and use OBS downstream to overlay graphics but I've always gone the route of relying on hardware for the encoding rather than a computer, hence sending it into the ATEM for mixing/encoding/livestreaming.

    I use Doug Johnson's solution for animating SuperSource layouts using an X Key pad and JustMacros. You think this system will run at the same time? Can the ATEM take multiple macro calls from different devices?

    • @davidjoshuaford
      @davidjoshuaford  Před 3 lety

      Hi James, they should be able to run simultaneously - you'd just need to find vacancy within the 100 macro slots available on the ATEM.

    • @davidjoshuaford
      @davidjoshuaford  Před 2 lety +1

      Hi there, you need to select the cameras as input on the Upstream Key to resize and place them, and then put the PNG image in the Downstream key with the cutout for the cameras - assuming you are trying to place cameras behind the PNG image.

    Companion with mac mini M1 it does not switch to internal other pages. I means when i press key on the homepage nothing happens. I use it as companion buttons on the streamdeck software. When i use just companion it works. On my macbook pro 2015 it all works fine together. Do you have a guess what is happening. Besides thank you for this impressive work you have put into this controls. It makes live easier.

    • @davidjoshuaford
      @davidjoshuaford  Před 3 lety

      Sounds like it may be a conflict with the native Elgato Stream Deck software, since you can run companion solo on the M1. Might need to wait for Elgato to update SD for the M1. Just a guess.

  • @jlmoped
    @jlmoped Před 3 lety

    Great demo! Is there a way to program a button to cycle through a list of commands or buttons?
    For example, set up a button to assign CAM1 to Key1, the second press of the button to assign CAM2 to Key 1, the third press to assign CAM3 to Key1, and so on. That can be useful to move a flying key into different predefine positions on the screen too.
    Toggle down/up only allows for 2 actions, if there is a way to allow for 4 or more actions will make is very useful. I was thinking of setting up Page 1 Key 10 as the "cycle through" key. Then Page 1 Key 11 through Key 14 are the actual keys with the actions. The first press of P1K10, it will execute P1K11, then P1K11 will assigns P1K10 to execute P1K12 on the next key press. Then the next press of P1K10, P1K12 will reassign P1K10 to execute P1K13, and so on. But I can't find a find to make a key assign the action on another key.
    Thanks!

    • @davidjoshuaford
      @davidjoshuaford  Před 3 lety

      I would achieve this via a long press which cycles through different options. See the BLK button (page 1, button 30) for an example of 4 options.

      V3 has new macro layouts, so needs to be reinstalled. As mentioned in other comments, it won’t overwrite slots 1-12 or 89-100, so use that for your own custom macros.

    Ya know, I watched this video, and realized it was nothing but a giant advertisement to your companion profiles you are selling - you should really update the page text in description to mention that the companion profiles you mention ARE NOT AVAILABLE anymore, instead, it's a straight promotion for your new $90.00 profile. While I appreciate what you can do by showing what is possible, there's no way I would have sat through an hour long video!!

      Hi Dave, apologies if this was unclear and taking up your time. This whole project has grown and morphed over time. The features outlined here were available for 6 months, and thousands of people did in fact download them for free. As the Companion app continued to be updated, I put more time into making the profiles comprehensive, and changed the project to be a paid download to support the efforts. I do plan to produce updated videos on this topic when I get the time, but for now these videos still demonstrate many of the profile functions. The link still leads to a free trial version which enables people to download a 1-page switcher version and try out the Companion modules. I'll make sure to clarify that in the description. Thank you for taking the time to convey your feelings and feedback!
