I want to plug my camera into the Pearl Mini and have it record that source and simultaneously send that signal to a Zoom meeting. I am unfamiliar with how to do this. My MacBook Pro has to be in Wifi mode (for this job) to connect to the internet to send the feed. I believe the only way to stream is via Ethernet (Pearl mini to my Ethernet port). I bought a HDMI-USB-C cable hoping that the Pearl Mini signal would appear on my Mac, but this doesn’t seem to work.
You could use a Pearl Mini, or any Pearl product with a capture card to facilitate this! The Pearl device USB are not output ports, so the HDMI output must be used.
Zoom/Teams Settings
Video Source:
Capture Card (AVioHD+)
Microphone Source:
Capture Card (AVioHD+)
Speaker Source:
Room audio/preferred audio to hear participants in meeting, if required
Considerations
If routing Zoom/Teams meeting audio back to the room the Pearl device is
capturing video and audio from, depending on the microphone and speaker
placement a in-room noise/echo cancelling application can improve audio overall.
Noting, Zoom/Teams will remove detected echo quite well if microphones
connected to the Pearl device pickup Zoom/Teams audio from the speakers in the
same room. Headphone/Earpieces can remove any chance of echo, if needed
Spotlighting the video feed from the Pearl device in a meeting can help partisans in
the meeting focus on the intended material.
AVioHD+ capture cards can be renamed in Epiphan software for better indentation
