Give a Crew Member a Phone Camera Role
Give a crew member a phone with a camera-only role: they see a coloured frame when their camera is on air and adjust only their camera.
The short answer
Give the crew member the camera role from the crew settings. Their phone joins as a camera, shows a coloured frame when it is on air, and lets them adjust only their own camera.
How to do it in Streamdzy
- On the PC press Connect. A code and a QR code appear.
- Scan the code with the phone’s camera. The phone’s browser opens Streamdzy’s camera page.
- Press Start on the phone. It becomes a camera you can cut to, place and style in the scene.
- For the sharpest copy, let the phone keep its own full-quality recording; it is sent to the PC when you stop.
What to know first
A phone is a camera, not a second computer: its battery, heat and camera settings set the picture. Wi-Fi works well; a USB cable gives the steadiest picture. Use the webcam test to check the light.
Questions
Can a camera operator change the other scenes?
No. A camera role can only change its own camera.
Want all of this in one app?
Streamdzy is a free streaming and recording app for Windows: several cameras, your phone as a camera, going live to many places at once, and recording first so a bad connection never costs you the show.
