Integrating a Ross video switcher with a Resi decoder is a great way to streamline your live production workflow, especially for worship services and live-streamed events. By using RossTalk commands, you can automate key functions like play, pause, and fades, allowing for smoother transitions and better control over your video content.

Start by adding the Resi decoder to your Ross switcher. In the system menu, navigate to the device configuration, select the appropriate slot, and set the type to RossTalk. After entering the IP address of your decoder and setting the port, you’ll be able to establish communication between the switcher and decoder, which sets the stage for your automated controls.

Once the connection is established, you can program custom commands in the switcher’s dashboard. This allows you to control functions like play, pause, fade to black, and fade from black, all from a central control point. Customizing commands like these helps simplify operations, making it easier for volunteers to manage the flow of the service without missing a beat.

With your custom commands programmed, you can execute complex tasks with just a few clicks. This is especially useful for live worship events where smooth transitions between video feeds are critical. Whether you’re fading to black, pausing a stream, or playing back a specific video, RossTalk gives you the flexibility to automate these actions, reducing the risk of errors and allowing your team to focus on other aspects of the service.
