Remote guest on the big screen, with camera and screen apart
Receive the guest's camera and screen over NDI or SDI/HDMI cards, with voice to the console, return feed, clicker and time, integrated with Over Timer, Proteus, Phantom and MixPresenter.
What it does
The speaker opens a link in the browser. Their camera and screen arrive separately at the event, their voice goes to the mixer, and they see program return, advance slides and talk to the crew.

Questions from operators
What counts as a speaker hour?
The time a speaker camera, screen or return is flowing. Idle links, the Host alone and the connection test do not count. In a group, each speaker counts their own hours.
What if we go over the plan hours mid event?
The event never drops. Hours come from your hour pack and, after that, count as extra hours, charged when the cycle closes. In your account you can turn extra hours off or set a cap.
What do I need on the event computer?
Windows 10 or 11, 64 bit, with a stable internet connection. For the card, a Blackmagic DeckLink or UltraStudio with Desktop Video installed. For NDI, the switcher network. Run the connection test with each speaker before the event.
What does the speaker need?
An up to date Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge on a computer, a webcam and a microphone, and at least 3 Mbps of upload. Other browsers work with a warning. On a phone they join with the camera only.
Do I need to open router ports?
No. Media goes through the Cloudflare network and the Host only opens outgoing connections.
Can I use it for a single event?
Yes. The day pass lasts 24 hours from the first speaker session or from the start you set in your account.
What is in the post-event report?
A PDF per speaker, or for the whole group, with the conclusion of where the problem was, time connected and on air, incidents, speaker and production indicators side by side, and upload, loss and delay charts. You choose the session, the day or a date and time range.
Windows or my antivirus warned me about the installer. Is it safe?
Yes, as long as the installer came from app.broad.tools. Windows SmartScreen warns when a program is new and has few downloads, not because it found a problem. Click "More info" and then "Run anyway". If your antivirus blocks it, add the installer or the app folder to its exceptions. Digital signing of the installers is on the way and will remove this warning.
