Back to the original point in this discussion.
We have found that the ATEM Mini works with Macintosh computers and GoToMeeting and GoToWebinar, but does not work with GoTo programs if you have a Windows computer.
When using with a Mac, the image coming into the GoTo is cropped (the edges are cut off). I played around with this by running PowerPoint on computer 1 and sending that image through the ATEM Mini to a second computer that was running/presenting the GoToWebinar.
I was using the standard 4:3 ratio in PowerPoint, which gives you a 10" wide by 7.5" tall slide. I found that if I embed a video in the PowerPoint slide, I had to size it to be 9" wide. This meant 1/2 inch unused space to the right and left of the video image. Despite the slide being 10" wide, GoTo crops the image and broadcasts only 9" wide. The GoTo Attendees see this 9" wide as full width of the GoTo viewer.
Thus if you do set up a GoTo where PowerPoint and video from the first computer goes through the ATEM Mini to the second/Presentation computer, fooling GoTo to think this is a webcam, you have to include a half-inch border around the material on the slides.
This is not as apparent when you are really showing your webcam rather than using this trick to use an external source as your GoTo webcam. When showing your webcam, most folks would not notice that that the entire webcam image is not really shown.
This is only true for GoTo. For some reason they crop the edges of the webcam input. Other programs that use a webcam don't seem to do this. The ATEM community has tried the ATEM Mini with other computer programs, and have found that only GoTo crops the image.
Rather than redoing all of my slides on the first computer to allow an unused 1/2" border, I still run my regular PowerPoint on my main computer that is Presenting the GoToWebinar. I am also showing the "webcam," which is really showing a black slide from the first computer.
When I get to the point in my slide show when I need to show the video, I press the Stop Sharing Screen button, change my audio input to Blackmagic (the name that GoTo sees for the ATEM Mini) and I advance to the next slide on the other computer. At this point, the output from the ATEM Mini is now full screen on the Attendee's computer. I have already set up that PowerPoint file to be a black slide, then the next slide is also black but with a 9" wide video that plays automatically when I get to that slide.
When the video is over, on the Presenter computer I click to share my screen and change the audio back to my microphone. I find I can do this faster than I can get one of the cloud videos to play. This also eliminates the limit of five videos per webinar.
I could make this even easier and connect my microphone to the ATEM Mini ,and then I would only have to Stop Sharing my Screen when I want to show the video. I could then use the Mute button on the ATEM Mini to control my microphone rather than the Mute button in GoTo.
Hopefully GoTo will look into this and figure out why the ATEM Mini works with all other programs but does strange things with GoTo. Cropping the webcam input is something that needs a defeat button.
