So I have been working all morning on this issue. I need to use my laptop to stream live video (I use vMix HD). I needed to record the output of the stream but I want to do that externally on my Hyperdeck Shuttle.

My streaming PC has 2 Decklink Quad cards so all my connections are SDI (including the HypDeck Shuttle).

But now that I want to use my laptop I got the green screen and found out that is because my laptop is outputing RGP and the Shuttle needs YUV.

So the very simple solution was to use one of these:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/111384026849 ($45). I have 6 of these that we use to convert the signal from our Sony cameras to SDI for the Decklink Quad.

This little box solved my problem. Take the laptop HDMI output, go to the converter, then from the SDI out on the converter to the Shuttle. I still have the HDMI “out” on the shuttle going to a monitor so I can verify the video is going thru.

Just wanted to pass this on in case anyone else has the same problem I did.

Thanks Craig! Laura emailed me today with some pricing info. Now we just have to see what brand scoreboards we have. I am also waiting to find out if their software will work without the bot (ie manual score update). Take care!

I have Wirecast and I am very interested in the Sportzcast LiveCG and LiveScore but there is ZERO info on their site regarding pricing. Does anyone know what the cost of those are?
