Work on the ATEM Video mixer applications has gotten up to speed, there is now initial support for other models than just the Mini. One of the major new features that is in progress is a SuperSource editor. See the screenshot below for a sneak peak.

We started a new project a while back, a ATEM switcher remote control application for Linux. It started first as just a proof of concept and is now slowly evolving to something actually usable. The basic switching operations are there, preview/program cut and streaming/recording control. At first we only had access to the ATEM switcher at work so development was a bit slow, but now we can locally work with a ATEM Mini Pro. We are already some nice extra ideas, for example tally information over MQTT or CAN bus, animated lower thirds with QtQuick, video/music/effect playback.

Quite often when there is some nice API for something, the obvious application type seem to be a mobile application or somekind of web site/app. That is all quite nice and all but sometimes you just need a simple tool. Probably most Linux (or unix) user spend most of their time in a terminal so why not make some tiny command line utilities instead ? My latest little project is all about the command line.

I'm in a need to test Blueooth LE beacon functionality on both desktop and tiny Linux systems (Raspberry Pi mostly). Looking around there where a lot of shell scripts or python scripts, that just run hcitool and hciconfig to do the actualy work. And none of them supports more that setting-and-forgetting, no support for any other frame types. So I started a little project to create a small beacon utility written in C that would support other frames types, switching the advertising data from time to time.
