These are good ways to increase your knowledge of how EasyWorship works with video mixers. Read the articles that EasyWorship has published on using NDI, Chroma and Alpha key themes, Feeds, and the ATEM Television Studio Setup.
#EASYWORSHIP 6 EXTENDING TO TWO DISPLAYS HOW TO#
Get familiar with your mixing software/hardware so you know its capabilities and how to get the most out of it. Additionally, I recommend using a separate computer for keying text to the live stream and bringing in the front of house computer into the mixer in case you need to do a PIP of what the live audience is seeing. In some cases, you might be able to set it and forget it, but most of the time it’s going to need some attention. If you’re going to live stream, I recommend having a volunteer dedicated to managing the live stream. PTZOptics did a great job of demonstrating how EasyWorship works in a downstream keying setup using NDI. Of course, from the mixer, you can send the video signal to the content distribution provider. In all of these scenarios, you’ll notice that you’re connecting your EasyWorship computer to a video mixer or mixing software, either via video cable or the network. With a downstream key, you have more options and versatility. This allows you to show the picture or slideshow the speaker wants to refer to the streaming audience. Additionally, you may want to set up a PIP scene in your mixer to allow you to show EasyWorship’s content in a PIP. Chroma key isn’t as clean as Alpha key, but it works. Alternatively, you can use a green background in EasyWorship and connect one video cable to the mixer, and use a chroma key.

EasyWorship will use one as the fill (standard full content) and the other as the key (the color that the mixer is keying out). Otherwise, if you want alpha channel support using video cables, you’ll need to connect two video cables to the mixer from the video card on the EasyWorship computer. This means that you just have to set your background in EasyWorship to none and the video mixer receives the background as transparent, allowing you to put text over video.

The benefit of NDI is that you have transparency baked into the video signal. You can use NDI or video cables with capture cards to get EasyWorship to the mixer computer. EasyWorship becomes one of many sources that your mixer can use. Downstream keying is where a video mixer takes the output from EasyWorship and mixes it with other sources, like cameras.ĭownstream keying gives you several options for keying EasyWorship over other content. Upstream keying is where EasyWorship does all the masking. Honestly, the options for using EasyWorship in a streaming workflow are fairly diverse, but basically, you’re either going to be doing upstream keying or downstream keying. Now that we’ve connected the dots from your camera to the streaming page, we can flesh out the workflow you would use with EasyWorship in the mix. From there, the video content is distributed to, Facebook, YouTube, the church’s website, etc… A More Complete Workflow Now you are streaming video content to the web.

The content delivery service provider will generate a special link and key to enter into the software or stand-alone box. In your streaming software or device, you’ll configure it to send the reprocessed video signal to an online host, like a web hosting service, but it’s specifically designed for handling video streaming. So, where does it go after the HDMI signal is reprocessed (Trans-Coded)? That’s where the content delivery service comes in. This means the HDMI signal will have to be brought into a computer through a capture card and reprocessed using OBS, VMix, Wirecast, etc… Alternatively, you can connect the HDMI cable to a stand-alone streaming box. The HDMI signal from the camera needs to make a stop to be converted to an internet worthy video format. Next, you need a way to get that video to the internet for all of your parishioners to see. First, you have a camcorder that you’ve had lying around the church. In order to stream video content, you need hardware, software and a content delivery service like or. By now you probably have a rough idea of how live streaming works, so here is a refresher from the thousand-foot view.
