Mark,

We’re just starting a streaming workflow using the HVX200 cameras. After some investigation and chats with the Telestream folks, the firewire 720p/60 output from the camera WILL work in Wirecast if you have the DVCPro codec loaded on the machine (I have not been able to get the PN formats to work). The catch is that I have not been able to figure out how to use any of the firewire audio stream from the camera – we’ve rigged a USB M-Audio device to work with the DVCPro HD feed from the camera. Also, it took some tweaking and preference setup in order to get the HD pictures flowing over the firewire. Basically some trial and error yielded success!

My advise would be to fiddle with the demo and give it a try. So far so good for us, but we’re just starting out – I’m sure there will be more to sort out as we go.

Cheers,

-Patrick
