Hey Guys, I am an IT professional. I am suppose to setup CCTV and do Live internet broadcasting of an event for my church. We have two halls. one hall were the main even will take place and second where I want to setup a projector which will get feed from the cameras operting in the main hall. the main hall is 15 meters long. I have got no idea at all how to go for it. I have 2 laptops with best configuration. 2 very good handycams. But not sure what all I need to fullfill what i want. What cables or hardware devices are required. I am ready to spend money on this function. and If few things are really very costly then will hire those. can You please advise me how it works and what things I should look for. Thnx in advance, prady

Hey G22, There is no voice in the videos, Does tht mean, DVR cards can not transmit voice.. Thnx, Prady

Hey Thomas, can we see any demo? and when DVR cards record video, do they record audio on video as well? Thnx, Prady

I am ready to spend somewhere around $1000 for this purpose. and which sofwtare do u think will be best to do live streaming. can u recommend any good DVR card which will do streaming. I am planning to use real-producer from real media for streaming. any ideas... Thnx, Prady

Rory, Please let me know how did you go with recording tommrow. thnx , Prady

cool. thnx Rory... U guys are great. I have some other confusions in my mind as well. I started streaming on DVR.. and then I swicth the output going to DVR.. Will it break the signal for some time , will it affect DVR, I mean, will DVR try to start recording again after the output is switched. secondly, does DVR record both audio and voice? Thnx heaps. Prady

the problem with tht switcher is.. it will give me only one output. and I am not really sure, how will webserver work. can u help me decide if the diagram which I posted earlier will work. Thnx, Prady

what do u mean by web server?? how will i connect camera to webserver?? wont I need PC for it?? and I need to be able to switch between the cameras whose feed is sent to TV. thts why I need a switcher. what do u say? Again, i am not an expert.. thnx,. prady

any one???? PLease.... Rory?? CCTV_AUSTRALIA???

Hey guys, First of all , thnx very much to CCTV_Australia for giving me time for a phone call. Was great talking to you.. much appreciated. I have came up with this scheme after talking with CCTV_AUSTRALIA. Please let me know about your views about it. Purchase one AVS5430 video switcher and one VDA 4 amplifier. CAMERA 1 CAMERA 2 `````|`````````| `````|`````````| _________________________ | |``````````AVS5430``````| |````````````````````````| |________________________| ```|`````````````````````| ___|_________``````______|______ |````````````|`` ```|````````````| |`DVR`CARD`'|``````|`````VDA`4 `| |____________|``````|____________| `````|```````````````|```````| `````|```````````````|```````| `````|```````````````|```````| _____|____________```|____`__|____ |````````````````|```|````|`|`````| |``LIVE`STREAM```|```|TV 1|`|TV 2`| |________________|```|____|`|_____| `````` Details about AVS 5430 and VDA 4 can be found at Now this is I think how it should work.. two cameras will feed to AVS 5430. AVF5430 will come up with output say OUTPUT 1 and OUTPUT 2. OUTPUT 1 will be directly fed to DVR card as AVS5430 will be sitting quite near to computer which will do live streaming. OUTPUT 2 will be fed to VDA 4 , which will give me 4 outputs, this will be used to display whats being selected from AVS5430 to OUTPUT at 2. and all the TVs( I wanted 2 but this will let me use even 4) will see same thing. I think there is no problem with this scheme. but I am not sure , as I am not an expert in this field, so please help me out and let me know if u think there is flaw or loophole in this scheme.`

ohhh 2:15 AM... its 4:25 PM, here in Aussie land... If projector gives complications then i am more than happy to go with TV or LCD... by switching , I mean, I can show one camera to LCD at one time and show second after some time.. depending upon which feed I want to send to LCD... and same for streaming... hope I am not making it more complicated to understands... Thnx very much for you inputs mate. Thnx, Prady

Hey Rory, Thnx for your input. Highly appreciated mate. I am not restriciting to projector only. I can use TV/LCD/PLASMA anything. I need good quality output. I want to show only one output at projecttor/lcd but I want to be able to control which one of two goes to LCD/TV. and want to choose which one goes to live-stream as well. Which DVR card do u think I should opt for? secondly, my handycam gives me AV output and s-video output. which one should I use. as Venue is 11-12 meters long. SO I will need the cable to be able to carry the signal to this distance. Once again, thnx very much, all help is highly appreciated. thnx, Prady

I am not sure whats "broadcast gear" and dont know if it will fullfill my requirements...

Thnx for your quick reply. We are having some function in our church. we have two halls. main hall where function will take place and second hall where few people will be there. I want to use two cameras in main hall. and put up a TV/projector in second hall where people can see whats going on in main hall. secondly, I want to do live telecast of this event to internet so that people around the world can watch it. Hope I am clear this time. Thnx very much for your help and it is much appreciated. Thnx again, Prady

I want to do real CCTV,like... setup two cameras in one hall and then setup one projector in another hall. secondly, put the feed coming from cameras to internet as well. Hope I am clear. Thnx for your replies, Prady
