Although Avprosupply has the legal right to set our own prices, some manufacturers place restrictions on how those prices may be advertised. This is why you may sometimes see requests like “add to cart for price”, “click here for price”, or “call for price”.
Specific actions required may vary based on the manufacturer's minimum advertised price policy. We'd love to show you our lowest price, quite simply, at the earliest possible time while shopping, but in these circumstances the manufacturers don't allow it. We realize this is an inconvenience and apologize. By ensuring we follow manufacturer advertising guidelines, Avprosupply is able to offer the very best pricing and value to our customers.
This subcategory groups the software products and license keys that complete streaming and production workflows: production switchers (OBS, vMix, Wirecast, mimoLive), encoding and streaming software, lecture capture and classroom recording software, presentation software (ProPresenter for worship and live events), recording and editing software bundled with hardware, conferencing platform licenses, and the software components of integrated AV systems. While hardware does the physical capture and processing, software determines what gets done with the video and how it reaches the audience.
Production switcher software replaces hardware video switchers for live production: multiple camera inputs, picture-in-picture, transitions, graphics overlays, audio mixing, recording, and streaming output, all in one software package. OBS Studio is free and open source, dominant in personal streaming and small productions. vMix is commercial with extensive professional features, used in broadcast-quality live production. Wirecast is commercial with polished interfaces and strong streaming integration. mimoLive runs on Mac with a focus on live production. Each has different strengths and pricing.
Lecture capture software automatically records classroom activity: instructor's voice, screen, and camera, integrated with the institution's learning management system (LMS). Common platforms include Panopto, Echo360, Kaltura, and Mediasite. The software handles scheduled recording, automatic publishing, captioning, and student access. For hybrid classrooms, the software bridges in-room recording with remote-participant video conferencing.
Presentation software for houses of worship and live events handles lyric display, sermon notes, video playback, lower thirds, multi-screen output, and integration with live camera production. ProPresenter is the dominant tool in this space, supporting complex multi-output configurations, integration with streaming software, and synchronized media playback. EasyWorship, MediaShout, and similar tools serve smaller worship environments.
Standalone encoding software takes captured video and prepares it for streaming or recording: setting bitrate, codec, frame rate, and destination. Most production switcher software includes built-in encoding, but standalone encoders (such as OBS as encoder, FFmpeg-based tools, or specialized streaming encoders) handle specific encoding tasks where flexibility matters. For multi-bitrate streaming to multiple platforms, standalone encoders or restreaming services offer fine control.
Modern conference rooms often use platform-specific software certified for the room hardware: Microsoft Teams Rooms, Zoom Rooms, Webex Rooms, Google Meet for Workspace, and similar. These platforms require licenses per room or per user. The license cost and management are integral to the room's deployment.
Commercial AV installations often need control system software to integrate cameras, displays, and streaming infrastructure with room controls (Crestron, Extron, AMX, Q-SYS). The control software handles preset recall, source selection, camera positioning, recording start/stop, and other automation. Software licensing is part of the overall AV system design.
Software and licenses are essential in any modern streaming or production installation: house of worship media teams use production and presentation software for services; education uses lecture capture software integrated with LMS; corporate AV uses conferencing platform licenses for meeting rooms; broadcast facilities use professional production software; content creators use OBS or vMix for streams; and integrated AV systems use control system software for automation. The right software stack is as important as the right hardware for a successful installation.
OBS Studio is free and open source, ideal for personal streaming, small productions, and budget-conscious deployments. It handles multi-camera switching, scenes, graphics, recording, and streaming to common platforms reliably. vMix is commercial software with extensive professional features (instant replay, multiview output, virtual sets, advanced audio mixing) used in broadcast-quality live production and houses of worship with serious production. Wirecast is commercial software with polished interfaces and strong streaming integration, popular with content creators and small-to-medium productions. The choice depends on budget, feature requirements, and operator preference; many production teams have experience with multiple tools.
Lecture capture software automatically records classroom activity: instructor's voice, presentation screen, board camera, and student-facing camera, integrated with the institution's learning management system (LMS) like Canvas, Blackboard, or Moodle. The software handles scheduled recording (cameras start when class is supposed to begin), automatic publishing to the LMS for student access, captioning for accessibility compliance, and analytics on student viewing. Common platforms include Panopto, Echo360, Kaltura, and Mediasite. The integration with LMS is critical: it determines whether captured content reaches students efficiently.
ProPresenter is presentation software designed for houses of worship and live events, dominant in the worship-tech world. It handles lyric display for congregational singing, sermon notes for speaker reference, video playback, lower thirds graphics, multi-output configurations (one output to the auditorium screen, another to the stage confidence monitor, another to the streaming graphics), and integration with live camera production software. Other tools serve the same space: EasyWorship and MediaShout are popular alternatives at lower price points. For any house of worship doing modern services with lyrics, video, and live streaming, ProPresenter-class software is essential.
You need a platform-specific room license if you want a certified "room system" experience: branded hardware (a touch panel, room PC, certified camera, mic array, and speaker bar) running platform-specific software that integrates with the platform's central management. Microsoft Teams Rooms (MTR), Zoom Rooms, Webex Rooms, and similar systems offer one-touch join, calendar integration, and seamless meeting experience. The alternative is using a regular PC or Mac with the platform's standard software, which works fine but lacks the polish and integration of a certified room system. Costs vary: room licenses are typically a per-room annual fee on top of standard user licenses.
Multi-bitrate streaming sends the same live content to multiple streaming platforms simultaneously, each at different bitrate or quality settings. For example, sending one 720p stream to Facebook Live, a 1080p stream to YouTube Live, and a custom RTMP stream to a website player, all from one production. Software that handles this includes production tools (vMix, Wirecast, OBS with custom configurations) and dedicated restreaming services (Restream.io, Streamlabs, Castr). For commercial productions reaching audiences on multiple platforms, multi-bitrate is essential.
Houses of worship (production switcher software like vMix or OBS, presentation software like ProPresenter, multi-bitrate streaming services), education (lecture capture platforms integrated with LMS, conferencing licenses for hybrid classrooms), corporate AV (Microsoft Teams Rooms or Zoom Rooms licenses for meeting rooms, control system licenses for room automation, conferencing platform user licenses), broadcast and production (professional editing software, broadcast switcher software, graphics packages), content creators (OBS, vMix, or Wirecast for streaming and recording; editing software for post-production), and any modern AV installation where the software stack is as important as the hardware for delivering content and managing operations.
