KVM Switch
These little KVMs were the secret sauce for touchscreen USB switching, because the ATEM can’t do that part. I didn’t care about the video path through the KVM—only clean USB switching that I could trigger remotely instead of pushing buttons on the unit.
Pros
- +Solves USB switching for touchscreen control
- +Works alongside an SDI/ATEM-based video routing workflow
- +Can be controlled via IR (which I automated)
Cons
- -Requires IR control, which isn’t ideal without automation
- -Adds another device in the chain to manage
What Live Production Mastery says
“The fun part was when I attached a KVM switch to those cables connected to the monitors”
“And then over here on the side, I have two different KVM switches with an IP to IR converter”
