Logitech Mevo Multicam 4+

Good App, Would Love To See Some New Features

This app is great. I run the stream for my kid’s baseball games through GameChanger. My iPhone 13 Pro Max handles four Mevo Start cams and a Mevo Go source on another device with ease. It does crash occasionally. I love how I can keep a corner bug with our team logo showing all the time, add full screen overlays for our team photo and sponsor logos, and even stream a cool promo video from Mevo Go screencast into the stream. I also set up lower third overlays with the boys names and photos that I display when they come up to bat.

I have a couple suggestions:
I would like to add a video as an overlay, including sound, instead of having to stream that from a second device with Mevo Go.
I would like to have videos (with an alpha channel/green screen) to use as overlays, so I can add moving graphics.
I would like all the controls on a single screen, rather than on separate screens. When I’m streaming a game I want to be able to switch cameras (not just use overlays and PIP), zoom and crop, and select overlays, without having to switch screens. Maybe add an advanced mode to allow people who want complicated controls instead of the simple controls you have today that require me to switch screens.
I would like to have scene selections, which would be pre-built scenes where I select a camera with certain zoom/crop settings, multiple overlays or PIPs, and sound sources, so I can instantly switch to that scene during a live stream.

Mevo to the rescue

I have been looking and longing for a system whereby I can record myself and go live with my practical sewing demos spontaneously without having someone to control the cameras. I also wanted a system where I did not need to purchase and know how to use expensive cameras. I saw complicated and expensive setups and I was just overwhelmed. I wanted to teach my skill and not be bugged down with the tech. I knew that I was not the only one with this problem and that there must be a solution out there. Well I came across Mevo Start and the rest I history. I am loving it and the ability to use the app to switch cameras. The set up is easy and I also love the small but powerful cameras. Well done Mevo you saved the day.

Developer Response ,

Hey, this is amazing feedback! Thanks for being a Mevo customer and happy streaming!

Great idea, unstable sometimes

We use three Mevo Cameras and either Studio 6 or this Multicam app. Sometimes it’s the frequent updates that cause instability. Sometimes it’s just something unknown in the system. But we find we get a solid streamed broadcast only half the time.

In the case of this app, notifications on my iPhone caused the stream to quit unexpectedly mid program. Unfortunately, with Vimeo you can’t just click “Go Live” and pick up where you left off. If you do you create a whole new event with a new url. And that’s a big headache. (Think changing/updating your broadcast’s URL’s on your website, app, and social media during your live program.) And the same problem if for some reason you broadcast for just a few seconds and the feed goes down… now you have to update all the links.

This app has a nice interface and it does connect to our 3 Mevo’s well (so long as app and Mevo camera firmware are all up to date.)

A major drawback is not being able to stream to multiple outlets at once (i.e Vimeo and Facebook). If you could create a Vimeo event from the app AND from the app tell the Vimeo event to send to other outlets limitations of an iOS device could probably be avoided. Alas no such option (yet?).

Good concept. Good start. Make it dependable. Help us get our content out to multiple outlets. That would be 5 stars.
