How to go Live to EventLive with ATEM Mini Pro
With Atem Mini Pro you have 3 ways to go live:
Configure EventLive destination on your Windows/Mac so you can stream directly from ATEM Mini Pro (with a phone as a hotspot OR Ethernet connection)
Use ATEM Mini Pro as a USB webcam input for your computer and use OBS (that will let you add overlays and control bitrate and resolution even further)
Using Restream.io? You can add our RTMP details to your Restream account and then just add your restream key to ATEM Software Control. Skip the rest of the instructions!
For basic (non-Pro) ATEM Mini there's only one option - to connect it to a computer or android device and use with an app like OBS, vMix, USB Camera Pro, CameraFi Live.
Download and install ATEM Switchers Update to install ATEM Control software
Plug in ATEM Mini Pro to your computer with USB cable to configure it. Run ATEM Setup program and Update your switcher
