GoPro Black 5 as a webcam Resolume 5 arena

Post by Bobvandeveen »

Whats up gang?

I've been trying to connect my Gopro 5 black as a webcam in Resolume 5 arena.
Im using the HDMI mini > HDMI IN on the Blackmagic Intensity Shuttle > USB 3.0 in my laptop.

In Resolume I see two new options in the sources menu.
1. Blackmagic capure devices ; Intensity Shuttle 1
2 DirectShow Capture Devices ; Decklink Video Capture 1

If i drag both of them in my layer, but the screens stays black.

Is there a special option in the Gopro?

Please don't tell me ive trown away alot of money!

use option 1,
and you have to set the correct format and source in the bmd-clip's properties.

Boom! right on the money!
Thanks a lot!

Do you perhaps know if you can charge the gopro without Resolume showing USB Connected?
Or doesn't it drain my battery?

You should be able to use any USB-C charger to keep your GoPro 5 charged without draining your laptop battery.

Keep in mind that Resolume will drain your laptop battery pretty quickly on its own so you should preferably run shows with the laptop plugged.

If you don't have access to direct power you can always use a UPS to connect your laptop and camera.
