osee GoStream Deck HDMI Pro Live Streaming Multi Camera Video Mixer Switcher

I've been using an ATEM Mini Pro for the last couple of years for my home office. I work in events and during COVID we were all producing livestreams from our home so that was the original need. I'm doing less of those now, but I've gotten used to the workflow of having a switcher at my desk. The one big drawback to the ATEM Mini was that the USB output was mjpeg which Zoom did not handle very well. The blacks were crushed, the highlights were blown out. The image just looked oversaturated / over contrast. In OBS you could solve for this by switching betwee full / partial color profile. But Zoom has no such toggles. I use Zoom for all my meetings at work, so I got tired of this look for my camera and eventually started using an Elgato Camlink instead. Fast forward to receiving the OSEE switcher a couple months ago. I bought it on a whim to see if it would solve this one big problem I have and it did! The output looks fantastic in Zoom without any adjustments needed. The image does look slightly more grainy than the CamLink but its leaps and bounds better than the ATEM. This switcher also improves over the ATEM by having two HDMI outputs so you can have a multiview + something else. And that something else is configurable via macros, so I have it setup to switch between a multiview and preview and program fullscreen. I hook up two cameras and two computers into the OSEE switcher, so with the macros I can toggle between a multiview which I use most of the time and full screen computer output on my secondary monitor when I want that instead. It also supports onboard recording via SD card. It has a secondary USB function which I have a webcam plugged in, just in case my main video call camera overheats during a meeting. It's definitely cheaply built plastic so it's likely not going to be as durable at the ATEM Minis but for desk use it's perfectly fine. One note is that it does run VERY hot. I thought the ATEM Mini ran hot, but this thing literally hurts to touch the bottom of it. So far it hasn't had any impact on my real wood desk, but buyer beware if you have this on a mat or a cheap surface, it could eventually lead to issues. In a Version 2 I would love for a fan to be added. The last thing I'll say is that the on screen menu is OK and works fine (it's got a bit of input lag when scrolling through things). On the one hand, I appreciate the on screen menu since you don't have to have a computer hooked up to change settings like on the ATEM. On the other hand, it's less intuitive and tedious than using Blackmagic's fantastic software. And it makes things like adding in rtmp stream keys very clunky (have to add it in a text file on the SD card). There are pros and cons to both approaches. The ideal would be to have both, so maybe we'll see OSEE release control software sometime in the future. I know they are working on NDI which would be a real game changer in a device this price.

Hard pressed to find something better for the price, and better than many switchers costing much more. Supersource with simultaneous keying, two usb ports for webcam input/pc webcam output and disk recording simultaneously, plus sd card reader / recording, network access for uploading media files via the app...this thing is still impressing me after a month of daily use. Built in screen with menu button means you can setup / make changes using the on-board controls without software control even though it has that as well. I did find one time where it rebooted while in after I tried to do too many things at once, but my multiple Atems has done the same thing several times over the past 4 years. It's highly configurable on the routing side, and keyer options, but I have yet to see if it can do flying key which is something Atems can do. Very few cons with this, and many, many pros.

I wasn't sure what I was getting myself into with this new Chinese switcher. Let me say that I am not the kind of person who likes reading user manuals and I didn't start by opening the manual that comes with the Osee GoStream Deck either. But after ten hours of testing I am very impressed. Osee has a reputation for a line of very good field video monitors but this is their first venture into production switchers. What's so good you ask...First of all the very low price...Second, when I hooked up my cameras and a laptop for inputs and a couple of monitors for program and multiview outputs, it's surprisingly stable...plugging and unplugging cameras and computers and switching resolutions did not phase it when streaming and recording. Second, it's very accommodating and much more flexible than other compact video switchers I have used. The microphone inputs are actually switchable as either mic or line inputs. There are four dedicated HDMI inputs and one USB input which can be used for a USB camera or phone or practically anything that has a USB output. It has a streaming ready USB output as well as two HDMI outputs that are programable and can be used for program out, preview out or the built in multiview out. The built-in multiviewer is well designed and also has graphic audio meters... The switcher is comprehensive...it has a linear keyer, downstream keyer and chroma keyer....and these keyers look great. These are not the typical inexpensive keyers often found in budget switchers. It has a built in recorder with three levels of H.264 recording quality. Honestly...it's about time somebody handed us a video switcher that has built in recording capability. Thank you! If you don't want to record, you can use the SD card recorder as a media player for your production. Physically the switcher is compact and conveniently laid out with groupings of buttons for keyers and audio switches just where you'd expect them to be. The menu system is straight forward but also wildly extensive, as you would expect, with a device that can be programmed to meet so many needs. So what's the downside...the only rough element I find worth mentioning is the "feel" of the main switcher buttons. They have a "cheap" feel...the result of a crunchy membrane cover over a physical switch. That's the most objectionable element of this device I can point out...Perhaps not a very big deal... In my opinion this switcher is phenomenal. I'm looking forward to taking it out on the road very soon.

I love my go stream. I have one for myself and also purchased one to replace the video switch in our church live stream system. Both are working great. Love that we can live stream on several platforms at the same time. We are starting to have some issues streaming on Facebook, but it is a Facebook problem and not the go stream. It just has so many wonderful features that should be on every switch, but we're missing on our old one. It is easy to operate and is very flexible in many areas. Love the easy recording feature. This device definitely deserves 5 stars.

I've been using the GoStream Deck for a little while now and I'm really liking it. I am an Atem Mini Pro user and this product competes directly with it at the same price point. I do love my Atem Mini Pro but I wish it had a few more features that require me to move up to the Extreme. The GoStream has some of those features I'm looking for, especially as it relates to super source and media playback. It is super easy to use out of the box, but the main thing missing is a companion desktop software. Osee says they are working on it. Once they do, I will update this review accordingly. What I like: - Easy to use out of the box - Supersource - Ability to record and playback media from a SD Card - Flexible ports - two HDMI ports and two USB-C Ports - Ability to stream to 3 different sources simultaneously - Bring in a webcam as one of your inputs. What I don't like: - No desktop software (as of 10/18/2023) - Some default settings - button brightness is set to high and multi-view layout (these can be changed in the settings) - No video scalers - This will not accept 4k (or higher) inputs. You need to make sure your inputs are set to 1080p (or 720p). - No audio processing for audio. Make sure to update to the latest firmware. One of the issues I had with the original firmware is that by default it output to 1080p 30. The external monitor I used didn't support 30 fps. I had to change the output to 60fps. The new firmware addresses this issue along with a number of other things. See release note below. V1.0.3 Release Note: 1. Fixed the issue of occasional out of synchronization problems between video and audio in long-duration recorded video material to the SD card. 2. Fixed the issue of occasional abnormal audio in recorded video materials. 3. Enhanced the video recording capability that allows the frame rate of recorded videos to match the output frame-rate set by the GoStream Deck. 4. Fixed the issue of out-of-sync streaming.

I purchased the Osee GoStream Deck as a video switcher to help bolster the marketing within my retail business. This thing is awesome for efficiently creating recorded and live video. The GoStream is in my opinion the only real competition to the Blackmagic ATEM mini/mini pro & mini extreme. I have a background in broadcast and this little device reminds me of a small version of the bigger production switcher I used to use. It's well built and the button placements have been well thought out compared to the ATEM mini Extreme that has tons of buttons that are hardly used. The preview bus is a MUST in my opinion and I'm so glad that Osee decided to stick with the traditional layout and include those buttons. Incredibly impressive to have a built-in SD card slot that can both be used for recording and playback live. Additionally love that this switcher includes both a SuperSource and 2 keyers, 1 Upstream, and 1 Downstream. Also at this price point it's notable that there are 2 still stores. You have to spend almost $1,000 with BlackMagic to get that feature. Osee has been continually updating the firmware on the device and it just keeps getting better. According to the manufacturer they are coming up with an update soon that will enable API access to the device along with a software companion product for computer control. I would like to see the DVE capabilities extend to doing transitions and also add support for alpha channels within video playback so that animated titles could be added from the SD card. But overall a very impressive device with a promising future. Competition is never a bad thing.

This is a power packed video switcher. Great input options. The ability to stream to 3 different services is great. Also doubles as a video capture device. I would definitely recommend and will buy other products from them as the need arises. No connectivity issues to date. I use this weekly for different projects.

The best purchase for live streaming. We run a church team and we use 3 cameras for live streaming, is a lot easier to control using the interface. The app that you can we can download is great for stills and to control the systems. The video quality is great, sound input and output is awesome. Super portable and there is no lag when connecting the cameras. Make sure to have a USBC to USBC cable to connect the interface to your computer and an external monitor so you can watch the feed directly from the interface.

Osee est une marque que beaucoup de gens mériteraient à connaître! Excellent rapport qualité prix et offre plus de fonctionnalités que la concurrence. L'appareil a très bien fonctionné lors de divers événements avec enregistrement et webdiffusion. L'appareil m'apparaît fiable et n'a pas fait défaut pendant ces événements. Il existe des groupe en ligne de soutien entre utilisateurs et la meilleure recommandation est de déposer le GoStream sur un plateau ventilé ou refroidissant. Le principal point avantageux comparé au Atem est d'avoir 2 sorties HDMI : un pour le multiview et l'autre pour le programme.

I use it to help with running the local astronomy club meetings. I was particularly impressed when they bent over backwoods to help me sort out some warranty concerns. They shipped the product back for free, listened to the issue I was having and went out of their way to help. I was initially concerned with buying from overseas but as it turned out, it all went fine.

With hdmi inputs and outputs, this unit is the CB perfect streamer control.

If you are looking to get into any online live content creation, this will save your LIFE! It's packed with features, build quality is awesome. The fade switch is fun to use. My favorite things out of this thing are probably the possibility of streaming right from the unit and the multiview. Having these two at this price is completely out of this world. I can finally have a professional live stream setup while staying on a budget! Used to work with Blackmagic's Atem Mini, and my god is there a great difference. They based their unit off of them and just kept the good things, and made everything better! In all honesty, this came in at the right time, and is making my whole workflow a whole lot better.

Bought this on Amazon au. But it didn't come with an Australian plug. Amazon won't replace it or send the right plug. Now I have to pay to fix their mistake.
