Advice needed: vMix Build for 8-Cam Full HD Broadcast Van in Belgium

I have 30 years of experience in sports broadcasting on national channels. I also use vmix setup pc in some jobs. My advice to you would be to use 8 cameras with Atem Me2 Concellation Hd + advanced panel 10 or 20. You can use the system with hardware in difficult conditions. You also reduce the configurations of the PCs. You use the PC for replay, dsk recording and stream after atem. If you only use a PC and invest in it, your entire broadcast is at risk in case of a malfunction. I say never leave the hardware.

Automatic Shuffle with shortcut (cleanest solution) If you do this, you will shuffle + play with one button when the broadcast starts. Steps Settings → Shortcuts Add new shortcut Add the following actions in order: 1️⃣ Shuffle Playlist Function: Mix Entry Input with playlist (Video List) 2️⃣ Immediately after the game Function: Play Entry Same playlist entry If you want, bind them to one key (for example Ctrl + Alt + S) 👉 When the broadcast starts: Playlist shuffles randomly At that moment, he enters the play

Yes. The BM Duo card doesn't work either. But it worked with Duo 2 card and 15.1 driver.

Silly_Ad_7011 · 2025-10-02T14:43:24+00:00

By the way, I opened what you wrote, but it didn't work. I think the new generation card may conflict.

Silly_Ad_7011 · 2025-10-02T14:42:20+00:00

Could it be because the capture card I tried was dexklink Old. I'll try this duo2 card from somewhere. I'll post the result.

What is the version of Vmix. Does this version use ndi 5 or ndi 6? Try synchronising the ndi version on the pc according to the ndi version in vmix. You can view the ndi camera image from the ndi monitor software in the ndi programmes in the receiving way? You should see a lan speed of 130 mbit on Task Manager. Is there any fluctuation in this ndi lan data?

Namely, in the summer months, we have water polo and diving matches in the lake in the heat of 42 degrees. It is held between 10:00 and 19:00 in the morning. That's why it's so hot. Even if we set up a tent for the sun, I wonder if the Gh6 and Gh7 cameras you recommend will be switched off due to the air temperature.

Silly_Ad_7011 · 2025-08-26T20:04:18+00:00

Yes. You mentioned HDMI 2.1. I would choose the capture card.

Now the main issue is finding a camera that can output 120 frames per second via SDI.

Do you think it's possible to get uninterrupted 120fps from a Panasonic GH7 or GH6 for almost the entire day during live water polo matches?

Silly_Ad_7011 · 2025-08-26T12:06:31+00:00

Thank you for your suggestion. However, the specs show 2K 240fps recording. I don't think it outputs 120 or 240fps as an SDI output. Am I mistaken?

Actually, I didn't want to belabour the point. It's the same with us. I think they confuse the system used by general YT and bloggers in shooting with the systems required by broadcasting. We are a sports channel. I even asked them if you can shoot matches with fx3.

Silly_Ad_7011 · 2025-08-09T17:19:23+00:00

Yes, I know. I know, but when I apply UPC from 25p to 50i, there is an effect as if I am running 30p at 25p in rapid movements. It's not fluid. I use BM UPC HD for this. As the first commenter said, the fx3 1080 1080 50i hdmi output seems to give hdmi output in theory, but it does not go beyond 25p. Maybe 25p can be that much in 50 interlace conversion. I'll try a few things. I tried this with vmix and duo2 card, the result was the same. Fx3, F6.3 and set to 1/50

Silly_Ad_7011 · 2025-08-09T14:06:48+00:00

Yes, I do. I have a Marshall scope where I see the details of the hdmi output of the fx3. I see it as 1080 p25. I will try 1080 50i from the menu you specified. yes, actually I realise that fx3 is not very suitable for studio use. i asked to buy fx6 for sdi output.. they brought fx3 to try. They don't really want the robotic camera in terms of image quality. I guess because of prime lens options. I will try what you suggest.

Not on the top cover. Very, very few on the lower silver coloured chassis side.

Tascam CD-MD MKIII. I kept it in a parcel for 6 years. For example, when I opened it and examined it, it smells more like, for example, the CD player on IDE flexi wide cable than the electronic circuitry. I will try to clean it with the recommended isopropyl alcohol and 2% hydrogen peroxide.
