I like. I think we can/should avoid hardware specifics. I don't have the same hardware, makes it a show stopper for me for a few good reasons. So for now we can also avoid the two hardware subjects ;)
Let's start with Voctomix. meta: soon this will live on a wiki, but I want more perspectives first. more cooks! Below is 1/2 to start an outline, and 1/2 to figure out the scope. like "mixed stream is saved (yes include) in 30 min chunks (doesn't matter?)" scope: What a person needs to operate it, not set it up. Show up 5 min before a talk is scheduled to start, walk out 5 min after it ends. items to cover: Each input stream is 1 video and 1 audio (too obvious?) Voctomix gui has an audio meeter - for people that know audio, nothing. everyone else: "keep the peek between 1/2 and 3/4" or "...-20db to -2db" ? When the talk is starting, the Talk Master (sp?) should do this https://veyepar.nextdayvideo.com/main/talk_intro.pdf/394/pyohio_2017_talk_intro.pdf "Point at the Video Director, when they point back begin the introduction. (Video starts now.)" When a presenter puts up new slide, switch to slide, read the text on the slide, (twice?) switch back to presenter. Don't thrash - if you find yourself flipping between slides and presenter more than 2x a minute (er, no idea how often really?) switch to slides and hold there for a minute, even it is boring. that's better than making the vierwer sea sick. meta: How do we reconcile the preferences of different team leads? Like Ryan doesn't like PnP, says vollies play with it too much, says "everything full screen, one stream at a time." I love PnP - part of my training includes "even though you can't read the text, the viewer will like knowing there isn't anything new on the screen."
