With the vigorous development of the live broadcasting industry, activities of all sizes have also started live broadcasting with the trend, which not only meets the needs of commercial activities, but also shows various styles of individual anchors. However, the front-end development of the current live broadcast industry is quite uneven. Individual anchors can only use smart phones for simple live broadcast due to environmental reasons, while large groups rely on professional equipment to have a higher level, so the phenomenon of mixed good and bad in the live broadcast industry is very obvious. Based on years of experience and technology, Hemiao has launched its own live broadcast solution to try to solve the current problem, which is the Hemiao coding stick we need to introduce today.
Appearance and workmanship
The outer package of Hemiao coding stick is quite simple. It adopts the popular white package. On the front, there is only the logo of Hemiao live broadcast, with some decorative patterns.
The bottom is printed with the official account of Hemiao live broadcast and the QR code for app download, which is convenient for users to scan and follow or download apps.
The internal packaging looks very simple. The product is placed on the upper layer, and the inner layer is the instructions and accessories.
All accessories attached after unpacking, in addition to the instructions, there are four data cables with different interfaces, namely USB Type-A to USB Type-C, USB Type-A to Micro USB and HDMI to HDMI HDMI to mini-HDMI, It can be said that the consideration is very thorough, basically including the required interfaces of most users' devices.
The Hemiao coding stick is made of stable black, and the metal texture is quite good. The workmanship and seam treatment are commendable. The logo and name are printed on the front, and the HD in the lower left corner indicates its highest support 1080P@60fps Input source for.
There are also some relevant certification marks on the back. It can be clearly seen that the specific model of the coding bar is HN-HLS01 Pro, which is a professional model.
HDMI interface is arranged on the left side of the Hemiao coding stick for access to the input source, and the audio input interface is beside it, which is exclusive to the professional type. The difference between the basic type and the professional type is only the availability of the audio input interface.
On the right is the USB interface, audio switch and PWR interface (Micro USB interface). According to the staff of Hemiao, connecting the PWR interface can realize the charging function for some smart phones and enable 24-hour live broadcast.
It is very simple to use. It can be directly connected to the smartphone through the data cable, and then connected to different input sources (camera/SLR, UAV, PC/Mac). It can work immediately with the live broadcast app of Hemiao. With a slightly larger volume than the USB flash drive and a light body, the Hemiao coding stick is highly portable.
The connection of USB camera is more convenient. Connect the USB camera to the USB interface of the mobile phone to realize the live broadcast of the camera. Solve the beauty problem of beauty anchors, and realize more functions with Hemiao Live.
Hemiao LIVE
It's hard for a clever woman to make bricks without straw. Even with a coding stick, it's impossible to cooperate without corresponding software. This is an important role played by Hemiao Live. Similar to the logo of Hemiao, the theme color of Hemiao Live is green. The primary menu is divided into three parts: activity, streaming and personal center. The Bar bar at the bottom can quickly switch to different parts.
The live broadcast parameters are set in the personal center, and the options available for setting are rich, such as live broadcast direction, output code rate and resolution of different input devices, live streaming and video settings, and video file size. What is worth praising is that Hemiao Live provides a speed measurement assistant, which can recommend the code rate and resolution of live broadcast according to the speed measurement on the spot. Users who broadcast live outdoors must love it.
After the activity is created and entered into the live broadcast page, Hemiao Live also has relevant simple instructions for users to get started. It can be seen that the selection of playback sources on the left side is quite rich: mobile phone camera, Hemiao coding stick, USB camera, video files stored in the body, video playback, etc. can all be used as the live broadcast input source to meet the live broadcast needs of different people. The power in the upper right corner will permanently display to remind the user whether to charge.
The QR code below is used to quickly share the address of WeChat live broadcast, which is convenient for users to spread. It is quite practical for small activities or live broadcast between relatives and friends. You can directly use WeChat to scan and watch the live broadcast, which is very convenient for both the anchor and the audience.
At the same time, Hemiao Live provides a sharing interface for QR code sharing, WeChat sharing, friend circle sharing, and playback address copying, which facilitates users to bind live video sharing with public accounts and websites.
Hemiao Live also provides layer editing function, integrating most of the time required for live broadcast Logo、 The title, score mode, etc., are easy to use as long as users add them. This is much more intimate than the official app of the current live broadcast platform, so you don't have to go to the computer side to make detailed settings.
The score mode update system, which is specially introduced here, provides great convenience for us to broadcast a sports match live. Hemiao Live has also carefully produced timing score templates for different competitions. The display position of the score board can be changed at will, so that users can get the live broadcast of the games they want.
The left and right sides perform their respective duties. There are also some option settings for the live broadcast page below, such as calling the phone's sound source selection, switching front and rear cameras, picture in picture selection, atmosphere and sound effects, advanced parameter real-time settings, pop-up screen, screen flip energy-saving mode, etc. These are common options that can be quickly located and changed. He Miao is very considerate in this regard.
During the live broadcast, the external video source and mobile camera can be switched in real time, which is the picture in picture mode of Hemiao Live. This function is a light guide station function. When broadcasting, the host can switch the external camera or mobile phone camera in real time. At the same time, it can also achieve picture in picture, so that the live broadcast program effect is more life. What's more surprising to the author is that the picture position of the mobile phone camera can be modified to any place and any size in the live broadcast image, which is very practical.
Actual effect
It is useless to talk more. It is really good to perform well in practice. The test was carried out with the cooperation of Hemiao Live. After scanning the QR code, you can immediately see the live page on WeChat. The right side is the management page, where you can manage the chat information. Click the live page to watch it in real time, without registering an account or filling in any information, which is very convenient.
This is the live broadcast picture using the mobile phone camera. At this time, Hemiao Live is set to HD (720P) resolution, and the code rate is 2000kbps. The effect is quite good. It can basically meet the live broadcast needs of most people, especially for users who need live broadcast anytime and anywhere.
This is the live broadcast effect when connected to the SLR through the Hemiao coding stick. Although the parameters are the same, thanks to the advantages of the SLR, the picture looks better indeed. It is also convenient to use a Hemiao coding stick to broadcast commercial activities or the indispensable situation of SLR. In the process of use, although the smart phone is relatively hot due to network communication and data exchange, the Hemiao coding stick always keeps a cold metal texture, and it seems that engineers have made a lot of efforts to cool it.
In addition, Hemiao Live also has the function of third-party streaming. Here we have tested it using the fighting platform. The trouble is that you need to start the live broadcast to get the streaming address, and it is very difficult to fill in a list of addresses on the mobile phone. The method recommended by Hemiao to generate a two-dimensional code and scan it with app is indeed the most convenient.
In the actual test, as long as the network condition allows, the live broadcast effect is quite good. When the live broadcast room address is entered, the platform's bullet screen content is displayed on the Hemiao app at the same time, which is convenient for the anchor to understand the gift content sent by fans in real time.
summary
The direct seeding scheme of Hemiao is composed of coding stick and Hemiao Live. It is also called "direct seeding system in the pocket" because of its compact shape. It is a product developed by Hemiao based on its own experience and investigation of the actual situation. This live broadcast scheme of Hemiao is easy to master, and junior users can also operate independently; All kinds of use scenarios are basically taken into account, which is more than enough to serve as a small broadcast station; In addition to the inexpensive price, interested users can freely purchase entertainment without the high price threshold of professional broadcasters.
