6. Probleemoplossing

If you encounter issues with your Osee GoStream M2, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Device Buttons Remain Lit After Computer Shutdown: The GoStream M2 does not have a dedicated power button. Its buttons may remain lit if connected to a computer whose USB ports continue to supply power even when the computer is off. This is a normal characteristic of some computer systems and not a device malfunction.
• HDMI Output Color Issues (RGB 8 Bit Limited Range): The HDMI output of the GoStream M2 supports RGB 8 Bit Limited Range only. This may cause compatibility issues with certain video equipment (e.g., Atomos recorders) or displays, potentially resulting in a green-washed, crushed, or oversaturated image. Ensure your receiving device is compatible with this color range or adjust its settings if possible.
• HDMI Output Stuttering with USB-C Output at 60FPS: If the USB-C output is enabled at 60FPS, the HDMI output may experience stuttering or un-smooth motion. Consider adjusting the frame rate settings if this issue occurs.
• Reversed Audio Channels on Line In Port: Some units may have the Left and Right audio channels reversed on the 3.5mm Line In port. If you experience this, you can swap your analog audio cables or use software filters (e.g., in OBS) to correct the channel orientation.
• High Gain on Microphone Input: The 3.5mm microphone input may have a high gain, potentially causing distortion with certain microphones, especially Bluetooth lavalier mics. An external attenuator may be required to reduce the input level and prevent distortion.
• No Signal/No Detection:
  • Verify all HDMI and USB-C cables are securely connected.
  • Ensure your input sources are powered on and outputting a signal.
  • Check your computer's device manager or streaming software (e.g., OBS) to confirm the GoStream M2 is recognized.
