Ease of use is of most importance when we invite remote participants to our live productions. In the long run smartphone apps would be ideal. Meanwhile the browser based vmixcall.com does of course work, but is still somewhat difficult to manage for most non geeks. To a limited extend the difficulty applies also when laptops and desktops are used.

I guess that the server script at vMixcall.com currently always use Windows' default playback device for speakers. And I (not many non geeks) understand that which camera and microphone to use can be changed via the icon in the web browser's address bar. Much better if the login screen would allow device selection. And a dream if that could be change also when connected.

In theory that would be possible, judging from WebRTC samplesSelect sources & outputs

Thanks.

I think for us "geeks" we understand what's going on and can figure it out quickly but the problem is when dealing with a call in guest that isn't that technical and try to walk them through making changes. See a drop down for the guest to choose their playback device / camera would be a great feature.

Thanks

After two guests having problems with default playback, and trying to walk them through changes, this might be a solution (if possible).

Fine tuning of the vmixcall.com - but it does not have a high priority in my book

+1. If technically possible, this should be done.

Thanks,
