00:00 Intro
00:27 With MicroSD cards not being designed for use as boot volumes, with the extra read/write cycles shortening the life span - would you look at the M.2 Pi Hat, and what impact would this have on Playout Bee or other Pi uses for you?
03:03 If I have a few hundred photos to transfer from my iPhone to Google Photos and set my phone down a few inches from my UBIQUITI UNIFI 6 PRO (U6-PRO-US) they seemingly transfer much faster. Is there a better way like an ethernet adapter?
05:50 Is there a way to utilize the LiveU Solo for a Zoom connection? What would the panel recommend for generic internet on indoor corporate shoots? Mofi, Peplink, Teradek...?
09:33 I struggled this morning with my iPhone as a WebCam. It may be finally time to move on , if the panel can share some possible suggestions and links that would be appreciated?
18:07 Does anyone use the Mac application called Hazel? What are your thoughts on it?
19:44 I took a photo of a diver at Barton Springs in slow motion on an iPhone 15 Pro Max but it came out grainy. I'll try the same shot again today on a Samsung S24 Ultra. How could I make slow motion sharper on both phones? See at [link]
23:48 There has been huge drops in behringer x32 prices over the weekend. New model ?
27:49 I'm looking for transitions. I'm new to editing video and am curious as to the best bang for buck when it comes to stock and template video transitions on the market today.
32:57 At the carnival how do you amplify the music from Matterhorn or Zipper so it can be heard almost ever where, but doesn’t overwhelm the sounds elsewhere or the carousel? Thanks!
34:50 We took some incredible UV photographs on our Canon 5Diii but when we switched over to the Pocket 6K, the images were dead dead dead. What gives?
37:59 Have you talked about this portable USB-C hub for the iPhone 15 on the show? If not, what are your thoughts on it? Also, do you know of any similar devices? [link]
39:38 With the popularity of Sony cameras, would BMD do even better if they allowed remote control of Sony or others cameras in addition to their own cameras?
42:25 The more I use Stream Decks (up to 6 XLs now), the more I’m looking for ways to combine different versions and sizes. Has anybody had time with the new Cooler Master kits? [link]
43:54 My teenage son wants to begin filming things in slow motion. What do you recommend for a beginner camera?
48:11 What hardware would you recommend for experimenting with self-hosted LLMs or other AI technology on a personal level at school or home?
50:01 Other than transition libraries, what AV tools or gear that we may have invested in heavily in the past 10 years is now obsolete? Is there any tech still being marketed that you would advise everyone to avoid?
52:04 what is the best to clean the glass on my iKan teleprompter?
54:44 Looking at the current landscape of emerging technology, what are you looking forward to the most and what do you think will be the most significant change in the industry?
