Bill, did you by any chance save that skeleton emitter? I think that may be exactly what I’m looking for. But it seems the cinebydesign website is completely down. I’d LOVE a link to that emitter if anyone still has it?

One more update. I have good news, after talking with the folks over at the OBS forum, there is a way to get this full screen on my TV. Right clicking in the Scene, and selecting Projector Screen does the trick. Mind you I did have to change the resolution of my Surface Pro from 2880 X 1920 to 1920 X 1080, but once I did that, I got exactly what I…

Elgato Teleprompter is a very nice unit, and initially I was going to buy one, and considered a few others as well. At the end of the day, it came down to this. I didn’t want to be wearing reading glasses on Set. So I thought, what about using my large TV as a Monitor, then type my script in all “Caps” with large fonts. Initial tests out of…

Thanks guys, for your continued support and ideas. First an update, I was making a stupid mistake, and I had connected my TV to the output of the Capture Card, which is why I wasn’t seeing the scrolling on my TV. Once I connected the TV to the output of OBS, I could see both screens scrolling. Progress, but not exactly what I want. So then I…

So Jurgen, I am almost there. I have the text scrolling on both screens in OBS, but there is no text on my TV screen, which is where I need it to be. I also can’t figure out how to start and stop the text scrolling, how is that done? Lastly, is there a way to add an audio track so that I can time the scrolling to match the lyrics. Either by…

Well what Render Settings do you use in Vegas for output to the Internet?

That tutorial definitely helps! The missing piece of the puzzle. And I can probably cut and paste from my text file, to speed up the process. But what about my question about importing an mp4 (transparent credit roll) from a Vegas Render. Is that importable into OBS….as a second option, instead of creating scrolling text in OBS?

So from my research, I’ve found I do need a Capture Card (adapter) So I ordered this one online…

Here are the screenshots you requested. Two of them, are how it looks in Vegas, and one of them shows how it looks on Smartphones and Windows Media Player. My goal is NO black areas around the video……in other words full screen, in the Players that the Internet uses to play them. I’m sure I’m just using the wrong Render Settings.

Yes, I can do that. But I can assure you I’m in 16:9, my Camcorder only records in that mode. And I set all my Clips to 16:9 in Pan/Crop. As you can see by my Render Settings I also have checked off Stretch to fill. The screenshot you may be referring to, was taken down by Mods. Why, I have no idea, she was fully clothed. Anyways, that screenshot…

Hi Jurgen, I’ve run into a bit of a snag. I have the newest version of OBS installed 13.0.2 but it can’t see my Sony Camcorder. It sees my Surface Pro Front and Rear Cameras but not the Sony Camcorder. I’ve tried connecting via USB 3.0 and HDMI, but it doesn’t pop up as an option. Any ideas? Do I need some kind of special adapter? If I connect the…

Some of the things you mention are confusing to me. What makes you think I’m 4:3? I set all my clips to 16:9 in pan crop, on every clip, and set “stretch to fill” in my Render Settings. So what is it I’m missing?

Is no one going to chime in on this one, and offer some advice?

Wow, thank you Sir!! That could be the perfect solution. I will test it and get back to you, if I have any additional questions. Once again, thank you so much!

Thank you so much for your response it’s appreciated. Please excuse my ignorance, but I have no idea what OBS is?

This may not be possible, but what I’m trying to achieve is having Vegas’ Credit Roll scroll my monologue while viewing myself on that same TV. So that I can make sure I’m centered in the frame, and be looking directly into the camera, which is front of the TV. Behind me is a large green screen. So to clear, what I’d like to see on the TV, is a…

John I have a similar question, but by using the Search function, this is the closest topic I could get to my question. I’d like to find a render setting that fills the screen, when viewed through Windows Media Player or any smart phone. I’m happy with the quality, just not the screen size. Do you have any recommendations? You can see from the two…

Is there a reason why no one is replying? Did I post in the wrong section or ask a question that is so obvious……..everyone knows the answer?

Gentlemen, I’m seeking your advice once again. I’m rendering in what I thought was the correct format, but I’m seeing black edges on the sides and tops of my video, when played back through Windows Media Player, even in full screen mode. My render settings are Main Concept AVC MP4 Internet Video HD1080 and the box is check off called “stretch…
