vMix offers 8 base languages in addition to the original English. These additional languages were translated by Google Translate and are built into vMix.

It is possible to add new languages and modify existing languages in the languages folder in your vMix installation directory (typically C:\Program Files (x86)\vMix\languages). However, if modifying a base language file always have a copy saved elsewhere, because updating vMix will overwrite this.

This forum gives vMix users the opportunity to:

• Share a new language translation
  
• Improve on an existing language translation
  
• Request a new/improved language translation from other vMix users
  
• Download and use translations shared by vMix users

If you have any questions, please ask them here.
