So at my school I am head tech for the morning news which is a live broadcast that is sent throughout the entire school. Right now we have a blank green background and my Teacher asked me to setup a way for us to broadcast the news with a green screen live. After about a month of attempts none have proven worthy for the situation is not the best:
- The output signal that is used to broadcast to the school is old analog: it runs on a coaxial plug. However, we have a modulator that takes in s-video and RCA and converts that to coaxial
- We have adobe Premiere on new computers but they don't have a suitable coaxial output, I could possibly install a graphics card we have but since they are new and are school PCs, I cant really do that
- The camera is nothing fancy, put does have a fire wire and RCA output, but the computers do not have none of those inputs, however we do have a converter from fire wire to USB
- The new computers have no RCA or s-video outputs(like I said, they are new and the broadcasting setup is old) but we still have one old laptop that we can clone the screen to the broadcast for it has an s-video output.(Possibly we could stream from the new PC to the old one and clone it to the TV?)
- The new computers do have extra VGA outputs, so could you possibly convert that to s-video? (Cus they are both analog?)
Like I said, this is a very sticky situation. My closest idea is that we could some how stream the green screen video from the new PC to the old one that would then broadcast it, but I do not know how to do that and the camera will not register with Premiere even when plugged in via converter... I believe it is because we do not have a capture card, the only capture card I could even use though would have to be external for I cannot open the new PCs under the school policies. If anyone has any suggestions or ideas on how I could solve this enigma, that would mean a million.
