Hi. Does anyone here have experience with teleprompters?
I am looking to buy a teleprompter that uses an iPad for the text source.
As part of this, I am looking for a Bluetooth device that allows me to
- Start/stop text
- Manually scroll through the text - similar to the center disk wheel on a mouse
I saw a video online where someone was using a ASHATA Mini VR Remote Controller, Wireless Bluetooth Gamepad but the problem is that this only seems to be available on Amazon and I refuse to buy from Amazon!
I guess what I am really trying to figure out is...
1.) Are Bluetooth remote controllers fairly similar/interchangeable?
2.) Does iPadOS (or even iOS) typically support these Bluetooth remote controlelrs?
3.) Is compatability more a function of iPadOS or the teleprompter app you are using or both?
In an ideal world, my desired use-case is to have a tiny controller (e.g. car key-fob size) in my hand - out of frame - and be able to manually scroll through the text using my thumb at a pace that works for me. (If the text is scrolling automatically, I think it will sound like I am reading.)
Thanks!
