I like how you are using two streamdecks. Can you elaborate more on using two at the same time? What if i want multiple pages on both? I'm wondering if it's now all even pages are the 2nd streamdeck? What if i wanted to have three or more streamdecks attached? I actually have legitimate use cases for wanting three, but just knowing if i can get multiple pages for just two is more helpful. I would try this myself, but i don't have my streamdecks yet. Cheers.
currently a bit tired, its just pages. You can have several stream decks hooked up - go into companion and assign your buttons per page, then select that page on the stream deck you want.
@KINETICPROFESSIONALS so I can say, reserve pages 1-10 for Streamdeck 1. And have Streamdeck 2 looking at 11-20 ? Each streamdeck would be able to see the other pages as well, it's just the pages each of the physical units are looking at?
Excuse my naiveness but what is Companion? I assume it's a third-party application. Also, in regards to IP, where can I find that? Is that the port or the address on the ATEM. Thank you.
Companion is the software that will you need to install to have acces to the web-base Bitfocus Comapanion configuration platform to setup your Stream Deck with ATEM a simple web search will reveal where you can download it, and yes the IP is the one you use to access your ATEM with from your computer.
Great video! So I have a monitor next to my desk that shows me multiview (as an input coming of my videohub) Would there be a way to make macros that switch which input is routed to the output for my monitor? That way if I want to see a specific camera (since the multiview is tiny) I can software patch a different input to that output. Thanks man
Hello Jay, Thanks for the spot-on video tutorial I enjoyed it and most of it worked as advertised. My only difficulty was/is with Macro #1 you referred to would be a CUT. I have the ATEM Constellation and everything worked as you described except for that Macro 1 button. Can you or any reader offer me an assist with this? I am running both Sreamdeck XL (32) and Streamdeck (15). Any help would be appreciated.
I don’t have companion in front of me currently , but try looking in another preset folder in companion. If I remember cut was not in the macro section .
Hi I am looking to set up my system and I am having problems with the static ip adress and hooking atem with companion to streamdeck. I am looking for 1 on 1 help and would like to set up appointment if that is something you do. Thank you
Like dozens of others who made a video about this exact thing, also you forgot the first steps. First of all you start your video and companion is already on your computer. Second companion asks a few questions at setup the first time. Why on earth every freaking one making a video about this, does not start with that companion setup. Now I wasted another 3 minutes to find out that also you did not start at the beginning. Thumbs down
no problem.- I can probably walk you through starting companion. Apologies, I guess I wrongly assumed most were already working with companion - Thats why this is not a " how to use companion from the start" video. Again, I do care - What questions do you have? More than happy to help.
@@KINETICPROFESSIONALS Thank you for your kind reply to my frustrated reaction yesterday. Much respect for that. The main questions I have are what to do when first using companion as it asks a bunch of questions at first start: 1. Use companion natively.... or Use comapnion via streamdeck software?? 2. Should I enable/disable X-keys? 3. Should I enable/disable Loopdeck? 4. remote control surfaces. a list of things I can enable/disable is shown? The another question: Do I need to download and install stream deck software? I now only installed companion. It already seems to work. The Atem is recognized and I managed to create a button on which the atem reacts. However the stream deck does not show changes made on the atem but that could also be the result of not yet programmed buttons/responses. Or do I need stream deck software installed for both directions communication between atem extreme and the stream deck? Thank you for your time.
