No I understand that the Dejero, TV U or Live U is easier especially when you do not have truck ops. Either I’m doing something wrong or my location sucks. Honestly I have success maybe 60% of the time at best. It freezes or drops out, the lip sync is off, signal strength is low, audio is low, sometimes it looks like somebody is pouring water on my lens as the live shot is going on.
I’ll never forget going live from Madison Square Garden, the team we were covering won I fired the Dejero up and ran on the court to capture the excitement live, followed the team into the locker room to show that to our audience. Proceeded to go live immediately after the locker room celebration scrambling to set up lights, tripod and ifb . I glance over at the box and the delay reads 2.2 sec delay. Well I am getting older and glasses are eminent the box actually read 22 sec delay. Can you imagine the fiasco that live shot was? OMG what a disaster!!! ( It really is a funny story but for another day) Since then I have frowned on using any cell packs. I just have had no luck with this new technology. Sat & Live trucks may take longer to set up but I will take it any day of the week.
