Hey all, I produce video podcasts on an occasional basis, and dabble with video as an experimental media. One of the areas I've been interested in is the growing space of live video production on the Mac.
In terms of Mac-based video production studios, I've heard that daily videocasters like GeekBrief.tv use WireCast, while I've been playing with the freely available CamTwist on my end. Today, I managed to try the pre-release version of BoinxTV... and I love it. Here's the feature summary: - BoinxTV is an audiovisual mixing tool - for recording video podcasts or displaying live - overlay logos, a news ticker, or create graphical effects - apply transformations and filters to the incoming video image - runs on your Mac and supports up to three cameras From my personal experience with BoinxTV: - decently short learning curve in terms of user interface (i.e. video mixer) - it's a beta but it runs well on my 17" HD MBP, even with multiple cameras and layers active - unsure if BoinxTV is capable of acting as a video source for live video streaming (e.g. Quicktime broadcaster, Flash-based video streaming) - no idea on cost yet Here's the page where you can register to be invited to try BoinxTV: http://www.boinx.com/boinxtv/ I bet you'll get an immediate invite after registering there since I got my pre-release today (I registered some time ago).
