Then he took me through a test session to show me the ropes and explain how to stream on the ClearView Flex website.

A company rep mentioned that they’re working on outfitting a smaller box with a mini DeckLink card, which would be a huge plus for portability.

I suggest moving the box at least a few feet away from your workstation for noise control.Īccording to Sohonet, it’s currently outfitted with a full-sized Blackmagic DeckLink capture card.
