When your “office” is a remote fishing cabin in the Norwegian wilderness, reliable internet isn’t always guaranteed. But for Bernt Nor, founder of a small production company that’s been capturing the magic of Norway’s outdoors for over 15 years, that challenge became an opportunity to innovate.
Bernt’s company produces fishing and hunting content for YouTube and domestic Nature TV, and recently expanded into live streaming outdoor events — from fishing contests to charity auctions and hunting adventures.
“We’ve used pro-sumer gear from Blackmagic Design and Teradek for years,” Bernt shared. “But I felt there was something missing — something that could deliver the same quality and flexibility, without breaking the bank.”
The Turning Point: Discovering YoloBox Extreme and Mini
This summer, Bernt added YoloBox Extreme and YoloBox Mini to his production lineup — two compact powerhouses that completely reshaped his workflow.
In the studio, the YoloBox Extreme handles replays and NDI inputs, and in the near future, it might even replace his ATEM Mini Extreme as the main encoder. Out in the field, a YoloBox Mini is mounted on an EasyRig with a Sony PXW-Z90, connected through a bonded Starlink Mini and two LTE networks, all powered by rugged 100W power banks.
“Imagine a studio in a cabin with two to four cameras, while a cameraman is hiking in the mountains with a YoloBox Mini,” Bernt explained. “Everything is connected through YoloLiv bonding — Starlink, LTEs, power banks — the whole deal.”
Why Network Bonding Was the Game-Changer
For Bernt, YoloLiv Network Bonding was the missing piece.
Traditional streaming setups often struggled in Norway’s rugged terrain, where network coverage is unpredictable. Bonding multiple networks — Starlink + LTEs — through YoloLiv’s integrated bonding service gave his team uninterrupted connectivity, lower latency, and more reliable uplinks in remote environments.
“The bonding is central to our production,” Bernt said. “When this setup works, it’s brilliant, flexible, and a lot of bang for the buck!”
This hybrid setup allows his studio to stay connected to field crews in real time — even in remote fishing cabins or mountain trails. With YoloLiv’s bonding, they can now stream high-quality video seamlessly without worrying about network drops or bandwidth bottlenecks.
The Move Toward a Complete YoloLiv Ecosystem
Bernt’s team is gradually transitioning from multiple third-party devices to a fully YoloLiv-powered production line.
They’ve also started testing YoloCast — YoloLiv’s cloud-based streaming and management platform — for backup streaming, multi-destination broadcasts, and auto-archived playback.
“We’ve used Restream.io before, but YoloCast is becoming our go-to one-stop solution,” Bernt noted.
By combining YoloBox hardware, YoloLiv Network Bonding, and YoloCast, his team can now produce, connect, and broadcast — all within a single ecosystem.
Real-World Results
So far, the results speak for themselves.
Bernt’s team successfully live streamed outdoor sessions using the YoloBox Mini bonded setup — sending video feeds back into the studio for seamless production switching.
