I have yet to figure out the ethernet connection, as it seems to want a router between the device and the PC. Very weird choice, I will be purchasing a longer cable. You connect to a PC with a male to male USB-A 3.0 cable that is 20 cm long. When the warranty runs out, I'll be making the same mod as mentioned in this thread. So they want you to just keep it running always, or pull out the wall wart? So weird. There are some annoying drawbacks: No power button, but a PSU with a screwmounted barrelplug. It pops up as a regular video input device, and just works. I used it with sources of varying resolutions, frame rates (even a interlaced source) and it processed everything nicely. It works well both with and without a computer attached. It's a very decent hdmi mixer with an agreeable amount of latency.

Audio latency is not that much of an issue with more recent (November 2020 and later) firmware revisions because they added HDMI input selection (so now there options for analog, AFV, or one of 4 HDMI inputs you select, so you may use one of your cameras/computers as a sound source). These mixers are reliable and work as advertised they get quite warm but not terribly so, although I would not advise to use them on tables covered with thin plastic, or on soft surfaces like couches. I successfully put the RGBLink mini and even mini+ firmware into the L1 (which RGBlink claimed as not possible), the only thing left is to trick their software to see the added functionality of the mini+. Usually it is Feelworld that is slightly cheaper though (counterintuitively so, but China is weird sometimes in more aspects than one). RGBlink is the OEM for both - Feelworld ordered some from RGBlink, because RGBlink specializes in video mixers, switchers, scalers, controllers, etc, and Feelworld/Seetec are experts in field and production monitors. So does anyone know if these work, and how well they work?

I have however, not found a single mention of the RGBlink online, that wasn't from their official channels. But, I can get the RGBlink from a local retailer for a 30% less, and they are both obviously conjured from the same factory floor (they look uncannily alike). I would prefer them over the BlackMagic ATEM and the Roland V1HD simply because they have a built in screen with previews, and look similar to the analog mixers my students gets introduced to at my course.īut, do they actually work that well? I've seen YouTubers review the Livepro, and the only drawback mentioned was audio latency, which doesn't really concern me. The Feelworld Livepro L1 and the RGBlink Mini are both budget friendly, seemingly very fitting in terms of IO and interface design. I often find myself needing one to mix between two or more students' laptops when we do live shows, being able to check beforehand that their connection is solid. I'm on the lookout for solid FullHD mixer for my VJing course.
