FAQs

What is ISO recording?

ISO recording means the switcher records each of the 8 HDMI input sources and the main program output as separate, independent video files. This allows for maximum flexibility in editing after the live event.

Can I record directly to an external drive?

Yes, you can record directly to a USB drive connected to the switcher, or utilize the 10G Ethernet port to save ISO files directly to a high-speed network-attached storage (NAS) device.

What resolution and frame rate does it support?

The ATEM Mini Extreme ISO G2 supports video input and output resolutions up to 1080p60.

Does it require a computer to operate?

While the switcher can perform basic switching without a computer, a computer running ATEM Software Control is required for advanced features like ISO recording configuration, DVE effects, chroma keying, and streaming setup.

What kind of audio inputs does it have?

It features two professional XLR audio inputs for high-quality microphone or line-level audio sources, alongside a 3.5mm headphone jack.

How do I perform picture-in-picture effects?

Picture-in-picture effects are configured and controlled using the built-in DVE (Digital Video Effects) within the ATEM Software Control application.

Can I stream to multiple platforms simultaneously?

The integrated streaming engine is designed to stream to a single destination at a time. For simultaneous streaming to multiple platforms, you would typically use an external streaming encoder or a service that rebroadcasts your stream.

Troubleshooting

No video signal from an input

Verify the HDMI cable is securely connected at both ends. Ensure the source device is outputting a compatible resolution and refresh rate (up to 1080p60). Test the source device with a different display or cable.

Audio is distorted or missing

Check XLR cable connections and ensure microphones or mixers are properly powered. Adjust audio levels within the ATEM Software Control. Confirm the selected audio source in the software is correct.

Streaming is unstable or dropping frames

Ensure a stable and high-speed internet connection. Reduce the streaming bitrate in the ATEM Software Control if necessary. Close unnecessary applications on the computer connected via Thunderbolt if using it for streaming control.

ISO recordings are not saving

Verify that the connected storage (USB drive or network drive) is properly formatted and has sufficient free space. Check the storage connection and ensure it's recognized by the ATEM Software Control. For network storage, confirm network connectivity and permissions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Connect your HDMI sources to the respective inputs. Plug in professional microphones or audio mixers to the XLR audio inputs.
