This is where the 16 multiview options come in; you have your eight HDMI feeds from cameras and or media players, then the rest show status, those graphic overlays and audio monitors.

At least, that’s how easy it can be if used as a straight webcam connection through your chosen streaming app. Configurable to 16, 13, 10, 7 or 4 up views including Program, Preview, 8 HDMI inputs, SuperSource, Clean Feed, Media Player, Streaming Status, Recording Status and Audio Meters.

Atem Mini Extreme ISO is a great switcher for the price. You definitely get your money’s worth. I am using it in a church environment and and I find it very impressive; especially being able to plug in any HDMI camera and get reliable results and the opportunity of being able to connect your mobile and share the internet takes Atem switchers to another level. The dual HDMI outputs are great for churches...allowing you to choose a different feed for the church display without affecting the program out and still keep the multi view out! I love the ability ability to record individual cameras for editing. You can now very simply switch between each camera using the ATEM Extreme, and the feed will stream as normal but with the multi-cameraThis model is an advanced switcher for true professionals!

The Extreme builds on this, offering the ability to Multicam up to eight video inputs in real-time. The second option is to connect through the ethernet port. This has a couple of advantages over connecting solely through USB-C. Although almost everything can be handled directly through the hardware, you need to access the ATEM Software control when it comes to loading graphic.

Using USB or Ethernet connection directly connected to Mac OS X or Windows computers. Includes ATEM Switcher Utility.

The workflow was seamless and easy to understand, the only errors being when I switched to the wrong camera. The Ethernet connection also allows customized control solutions! Even though ATEM Mini includes ATEM Software Control, you can use the Ethernet to control the ATEM remotely, anywhere in the world. A popular workflow is to use the Ethernet to allow the ATEM Mini to be positioned near the HDMI cameras, but the control is positioned remotely in a quieter space, such as a control room. Imagine using the switcher from a control room and building a professional broadcasting studio where the control room can be separated away from the performance or interviews. Ethernet allows you to add as many panels as you like all at the same time, or you can build custom solutions using the developer SDK! While ATEM Mini is easy to use, it's also hiding very powerful broadcast features!

With a little experimentation you can learn how to produce broadcast quality live production. Only ATEM Mini is a true broadcast switcher hidden in a tiny and affordable design!I found that even when using the ATEM Mini Extreme in this way, having the multiview output monitor was essential, just so you know what’s live and what’s not. Switching to the network You have the base function of switching between multiple video inputs, be that camera or media player.

One of the benefits of ATEM Mini is the professional production values that are possible using the range of built in video effects! The cut button ensures an instant cut when switching between sources. The auto button is a professional term that's used on large broadcast switchers to enable video effect transitions. There are duration buttons for video effects allowing 0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2 second settings. You can also select the type of effect you want including mix, which does a smooth transition between sources, and dip which fades via a color during the transition. Or use fun DVE effects that move the image off screen when transitioning between sources!HDMI input resolution from computers: 1280 x 720p 50Hz, 59.94Hz and 60Hz / 1920 x 1080p 23.98, 24, 25, 29.97, 30, 50, 59.94 and 60Hz / 1920 x 1080i 50, 59.94Hz and 60Hz Let’s start at the top with the ATEM Mini Extreme as most of the features remain the same as with the ATEM Mini Pro; aside from physically, it’s larger obviously with more buttons. ATEM Mini ATEM Mini is fast to set up and easy to use. It includes 4 standards converted HDMI inputs, USB webcam out, HDMI out, Fairlight audio mixer with EQ and dynamics, DVE for picture in picture, transition effects, green screen chroma key, 20 stills media pool for titles and free ATEM Software Control. Another point that takes a little working through is the graphic overlays. These are essentially graphics loaded into the Media Manager area of the software that can then be assigned and placed over the live stream video. Here you can assign the graphic to buttons and switch them on and off as you need.
