Hi all,

I broadcast some of my football team's matches to Facebook live using my tablet, but I'm looking to upgrade the quality on as low a budget as possible (video and commentary).

I have a good enough video camera already, and have a blue snowball mic. Sadly, that's where it ends. Could anyone recommend me a capture card, streaming software, and what are the important specs of laptop I should look for in terms of beg/borrow? Or alternatively, is there any way I could upgrade video and audio quality of steaming using an Android tablet without the use of a laptop?

Obviously not looking for top notch video quality, just a noticeable upgrade from livestreaming from the tablet camera and mic on as low a budget as possible.
