What's new

The more cameras you record, and the higher the resolution and frame rate, the more your Mac has to handle, and what it can take depends on its hardware. Before you record, the Mac app runs a 5-minute test of your actual camera setup and checks each camera for dropped frames. You'll see whether your setup passed. If it didn't, lower the resolution, lower the frame rate or remove a camera, then test again. Results are saved per Mac, so you won't be asked to re-test a setup that already passed.

How to use it

Connect your cameras, open the Mac app and click Record in studio to enter the studio. Add your in-person guests and assign each one a camera. Click the People icon at the bottom of the studio, then click Test setup. When the test finishes, click Done, or Apply this setup if you changed anything.
