Connect your Computer
Plug ATEM Mini's webcam output into your computer's USB input. Now your computer will
recognize ATEM Mini as a webcam so you can select it as the webcam source in your streaming
program, such as Skype or OBS Studio.
Plug your computer into ATEM Mini's webcam out USB-C connector
TIP
When recording to disk using ATEM Mini Pro, the USB connector will be busy
recording to a disk so it won't be free to use as a webcam output. However the
ATEM Mini Pro model also has live streaming direct via its Ethernet connection. If you
want to use the USB connection to record to a disk you can use the Ethernet
connection for streaming. You can even use the Ethernet for external control using
ATEM Software Control. Please refer to the 'additional features on ATEM Mini Pro'
section for more information.
Setting the Webcam Source
In most cases, your streaming software will automatically set ATEM Mini as the webcam,
so when you launch your streaming software you will see the picture from your ATEM Mini
straight away. If your software doesn't select ATEM Mini, simply set the software to use
ATEM Mini as the webcam and microphone.
Below is an example of how to set the webcam settings on Skype.
1
In Skype's menu bar, open the 'audio and video settings'.
2
Click on the 'Camera' drop down menu and select Blackmagic Design from the list.
You will see the video from ATEM Mini appear in the preview window.
3
Now go to the 'microphone' drop down menu and select Blackmagic Design as your
audio source.
With your Skype settings set correctly, perhaps try out a Skype call with a friend as a quick test
to check your broadcast setup is working.
That's all you need to do and ATEM Mini is now ready to broadcast your video to the world live!
