The hardware and software is basically done except for any new features we decide to add. The control surface uses high quality broadcast LED backlit buttons like you find in the high end switcher control surfaces. From one control surface I can now control the entire workflow. This was done because I currently use an ATEM to switch video and Wirecast to do the graphics, DDr and streaming functions. The cool thing is this can work with all of these devices at the same time. The control surface also has MIDI and Serial control output and will hopefully have keyboard macro output soon. Wirecast (Windows via network, Mac via MIDI for now).For this project I have submitted 3 patent applications for one of the features that will be available with this control surface.Ĭurrently, the switcher can control the following switchers: This project is designed to solve this problem plus add a bunch of new features. but nothing that is of the "broadcast" quality. There are some hacked together solutions that use inexpensive MIDI controllers, etc. If you use a software based video switcher then you know there is not a good solution for software based systems. If you are into live video production you are familliar with the broadcast control surfaces that allow you to control the video switcher.
