Could we have a tally light for the stream tab? Maybe even the ability to set up two light for when the stream is red or orange.

Red or orange? What does this mean? Preview and program?

The red light means stream is good. Orange means stream is buffering. I was hoping to be able to set something up for my I.T. Guy so he could respond quicker when we have bandwidth issues.

An IT guy should already know there are tons of solutions to monitor bandwidth usage aswell as giving QOS priorities or bandwidth reservation to specific applications such as vMix. Any decent router has these features builtin.

If yours doesn't, check pfSense for example. Free and open-source, very powerful...

When you see orange it's too late, the harm is done. The goal is to never see orange... even if orange is the new black ! ;o)

I have the same requirement, but for a different reason.
When our church live streams, we want to indicate to the congregation when streaming is live.

A Tally light for which camera input is not what we need - we need to show when the stream button is RED.

I know it's been 5 years - has anything changed with this capablility?

Thanks,
Mark

There's a tally in the API for the stream. I don't think it supports individual streams though, just if the main streaming function is active. So, if you have something that can pick up the tally function in the API, you're good. Off-hand, I don't recall if there's a direct way in vMix to trigger a tally pin.
