Hi!

In multi-view mode, I use a PNG image backgrounds.
In Photoshop i change to the image and save.
Sometimes changes the background, sometimes not change.

When changing?

Does this update by other imported graphic?

Thans for reply.

Try saving with the same name, save and replace, see what happens

I do not believe vMix is dynamic and able to make changes on the fly, you have to restart and/or reload your images.

No, actually vMix does refresh images if you update them. That feature was added in vMix 10 - "Image Input will dynamically check for updates to the source image".

Perhaps I stand corrected, and it seems to me that I had thought this was the case Rehan, as I remember dealing with a similar issue before, but for the life of me, in trying to re-create the OP's scenario, I cannot "refresh" my images without re-loading the input, and I am using vMix 11...
So I think videokommando has a valid question as to what makes an image refresh after the source has been changed or why it seems to be intermittent?

Martin???

Not sure if it helps, but I tend to use "Photos" input instead of "Image". This way I can change the image without removing/adding input. An added benifit is that one this way can update an image with the same file name.

(Of course it would be better to change the one image in an Image input after the input has been created. But that's another request I will save for later).
