Streaming:

Although the RGBlink switchers can't stream directly, the USB output found on the switcher means it can be fed directly into a computer.  From here, the output from your switcher can be streamed directly to Facebook or YouTube, or bought into a software encoder like Wirecast, vMix, OBS or more.  Lastly, you can also bring your feed directly into your video conferencing application of choice as your webcam.  This includes Zoom, Skype, Microsoft Teams, Google Meets, Etc.

PTZ Control:

PTZ Camera Control is available on the RGBlink mini+, but there are several important things to remember.  Here's a checklist of important things to know:

• Know your camera's default IP Address ​
• The M Button is where you set Mini+ IP address ​
• The S Button is where you set & enable PTZ IP Address and enable them 

There is a variety of PTZ cameras that can be controlled on the RGBlink mini+.  Two of our favorites are the PTZOptics 20x SDI PTZ Camera, and the BirdDog Eyes P100.  We've released video tutorials on how to set up both for camera control.
