FDR-AX1E Can it stream video

[RogetDodget]

Hi All,

I have a FDR-AX1E and need to integrate in a small TV Studio with OBS Studio App or vMix App and feed live video from the camera into a PC where it will be mixed with graphic overlays etc - but for the life of me I can't get either app or any other to recognize the camera. I'm using a ASUS X570UD laptop. I already know that its possible to record on the SD cards then transfer to PC, that works fine but it is a live stream that I require. Can you please help? THANK YOU!! And yes its super urgent.. I'm trying to demo with teenagers the fun of developing tv content and engineering side as a career

Hello @RogetDodget,

you would need to get a HDMI-capture card like the ELGATO Camlink (HD or 4K) to use the camcorder as a video source to OBS.

Hi Nick,

Thank you so much for the prompt and informative reply.

It would be so useful if Sony Corp could actually make these details available .. and they should offer their thanks to you too!

Good health and best wishes
