I use Ecamm Live every day to do morning announcements at my elementary school. I find it to be an outstanding piece of software that solved many problems for me when I began using it during COVID. I am doing a presentation for other elementary school principals in a few weeks on the benefits of conducting live morning announcements each day via YouTube. I use Ecamm to do this, however my school system is mostly a Windows environment. I know that Ecamm Live is only a Mac only product, but I was wondering if there is something like it for windows that I could point my non-mac colleagues to.
Is there a PC version of Ecamm Live?
Ecamm Live is a Mac only software company. We do not have a PC version or have plans to develop one in the future. We recommend Vmix if you are a PC user.
The free OBS Studio app is available for Mac and Windows and may fit the bill. I haven’t used OBS extensively (I use Ecamm Live) but I did kick the tires on OBS a while back, and it looks like a very capable solution.
I use OBS regularly and it meets my needs just fine. OBS is open source and free for anyone to use. It also has an extensive library of third party plugins which expand its capabilities. So it is worth recommending to those who are reluctant to spend money. They can try it out, expand it capabilities and if/when they hit a road block move on to a commercial package.
