A more compact solution would be camera with USB streaming support, e.g. Sony A7M4, attach to android phone and stream online. But I think there are caveats like no Audio, and of course I don't see how that can run for hours. Maybe with a battery adapter to keep the camera going but the camera won't charge the phone AFAIK. The FX6 can charge the phone while attached via usb-c but that's not exactly a cheap camera 😅

Or get the Sony Xperia pro phone, it has HDMI input, separate usb charging input and comes with software for streaming from HDMI. Expensive device too but allows for a compact set-up with any camera.

haha yeah FX6 is a bit over my budget

I have Vmount D-tap 95Wh battery that I can use with cameras and phones..

I just need to find perfect camera that has clean HDMI

I know my laptop maybe doesn't survive OBS-studio for hours but I was thinking if Yolobox could do it? or maybe a smaller computer that has bigger battery life like macbook air M1?
