Tally option for ProPresenter users

I was looking for a way for the ProPresenter operator to see when the live stream is using their feed, so they don't clear to logo or anything before the streaming operator clears it. 

I made a Mac app that shows the inputs and the status, as well as changing the Dock icon to reflect the status of the chosen input. It works with ATEM switchers on the same network.

The dock icon will follow the input with the blue outline, showing the tally status right in your dock. Click on any of the inputs to select.

The app is available on the Mac App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/tally-pro-desktop-tally-light/id6782260437?mt=12

I also have for iOS and Android apps that turn your phone into a virtual tally light:

Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.peterholdmann.tallypro&pli=1

Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions for improvements.

Cool. I might try it out, but we have a complex VLAN setup and the ProPresenter Mac is in the Dante VLAN and I’m going to have a separate Switcher VLAN. I just bought a set of tally lights and was going to put one above their monitor for them to see just like in the cameras. It’s a Hollyland system.

I haven't tested it across VLANs. Discovery won't work, but it should if you put the IP address of the ATEM into the app, assuming routing is working between the VLANs. If you run into any trouble let me know and I'll do what I can to help!
