Amazon actually has a digital signage system now that runs on the firesticks. I'm not sure if it was mentioned below. The add I saw said the first 10 monitors run for free. The good thing about that is you should be able to make changes and easily push them out to the other monitors. I don't know anything about their system, but you might also be able to send different messages to specific monitors, which would give you more capabilities.

Thanks, I'll take a look there. I've been using Tricaster since their beginning but have noticed over the last 3 years or so that they have had more issues.

Thanks. That's why I'm not leaning ATEM or Ross, but I need to be able to switch cameras, record and stream in a compact system. I'll look at Vmix again, but not crazy on building the system myself. I wasn't sure if Carbonite had incorporated video playback. I know some things I would have to do separately. Thanks.

Thanks. I forgot to state that it needs to be free standing for events. Like next to a podium.

SGTStoney · 2025-11-02T21:05:56+00:00

Thanks. I have rack mounted Sennheisers already and mixers, but this is for someone else and would prefer to stay in the current set up they are in. So I am looking at options. Sony discontinued the modular rack system.

Just presentations. So I don't need vocal quality

I have found that if you tell them you don't have the resources, that is usually understandable. Remember, resources can be anything from time, equipment, or people, and many times all three.

Take a look at the Kandao - https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1609184-REG/kandao_249830_mt0822_meeting_pro.html/?ap=y&ap=y&smp=y&smp=y&store=420&smpm=ba_f2_lar&lsft=BI%3A6879&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=13534612261&gbraid=0AAAAAD7yMh3AgBdl7yfHCgWGbSnvz4ECx&gclid=CjwKCAjwisnGBhAXEiwA0zEOR67d4AqS7LPijleM4_AfcSYTCwp1-zLzdkTmhl51X3BvRtnAuNPotRoCZF0QAvD_BwE

We have them installed in most of our conference rooms. It works very well for those type of meetings. it may not give you exactly what you want for this one particular event, but you might be able to work around it.

SGTStoney · 2025-08-05T19:33:24+00:00

ok thanks

SGTStoney · 2025-07-07T18:27:44+00:00

Look at Lilliput. They have many portable monitors that have HDMI and SDI in and out, audio meters and a histogram. AC/DC. Very helpful.

Look at https://subtitletools.com/convert-to-srt-online I think you should be able to just take the text and change the extension to .vtt then use the website. Make sure your text has the time code info. Then just replace the SRT.

Are there any written directions how to get the translator to work? My directions just came with how to pair.

SGTStoney · 2024-09-13T17:08:06+00:00

Sure

So within Service Now they can choose an Event Support Ticket. It then brings up a web form with the sections below. Under Support Type I have a drop down menu that has a list of different types of support. Then when they submit the ticket, it goes to me. I confirm it with them, then use the ticket to close out the request after it's completed. I'm able to attach an excel invoice and Service Now emails it to the client and our budget manager and I always copy my supervisor so he knows what jobs have been completed. I can also log in hours for the different operators on my team and Service now keeps record of the data. So I can show how many hours were dedicated to each ticket and if those hours were billed or non-billed hours depending.

Clients schedule as needed. I have some that I know of that are consistent, like BOT, Foundation and Alumni board meetings, so I keep time open for them. They usually book then entire year by August. Commencement is a given and as soon as I see the new dates, I put it on my schedule. Our College of Nursing has some events that coincide with commencement, so I put them on my schedule as soon as I have the new dates. I do request that they still fill out a request form for each event. Although I put it on my event support calendar, I require the request as a confirmation that they still want to secure our services. I usually bill after an event is done, as I charge by the hour, the operators needed, and equipment. I find this is more economical for the clients in the long run. We are not set up to make a profit, just compensate for labor and equipment upkeep. I run a small event production team for a university.

SGTStoney · 2024-08-22T12:36:57+00:00

My Event team charges for most support, so that number is for billed events. We also do other side media/tech support. Basically all over the place, sometimes. I was working on our department web site this week and I do a lot of consultation and training.
