JamesFlashG Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 If anyone has experience doing this please let me know how 😅 Essentially want a GoPro - or similar sized camera's placed around the stage for example on guitar neck & above the drummer facing down, the footage from these cameras needs to be live streamed onto a projection screen behind the band so people watching can get some nice close ups of solos etc. Need the ability to have multiple feeds shown on the screen at the same time and switch between them one at a time... I thought I would be able to figure this one out but has stumped me so far! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twigman Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 (edited) You need some expensive kit to do that - apart from the projector, you'd need something like a Barco S3 and an event controller (EC20/50) .

JamesFlashG Posted June 6, 2019 Author Share Posted June 6, 2019 😳 around $20k for an s3... maybe not that much money to burn jeez, but it's pointed me in the right direction cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul_c2 Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Can we clarify the terminology, its not a "live stream". Its a video signal from the camera. If you do it digital, you'll get lag - do you really want lag, if this is a live performance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why we use fibre connections and kit like the S3 is so expensive.....lag is minimised. Shows project or display 'live' streams on LED walls all the time these days - have you never been to a stadium show? I've worked in show video for 10 years now. It needs specialist knowledge to operate too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
