Hi, new to V-Mix and working with a couple of Birddog P100s.
Just wondering if there's a way to get the tally lights working on them? I get a tally indicator bar in NDI Studio when I switch, so the signal is there, and (using Sony VISCA over IP) I can use all the PTZ functions, but the lights don't indicate status on the camera itself (I gather the camera's 2 front LED lights should go green-red, but just one shows permanently green).
Is there a trick in V-Mix to get this to happen, or not possible with this camera?

Thanks!

Open the cam UI (right click on the source -> configure source), browse to the AV Setup section on the left. In the encode settings you see an onboard tally that needs to be set to on.

Might be worth mentioning what firmware the camera is on .
They have recently released the general NDI5 beta fw and (for some cams) there are still some bugs there . For one this FW on an PF120 fails to keep its on cam Tally settings

Yes, sorry. I'm on the beta already with my P200's. I did extensive tests the past days and I have no issues.

Will be FP120 specific then (others have mentioned the issue too)

Thanks @mavik and @doggy
When I click configure source it opens my web browser to the birddog web UI (I assume that's correct), but I have a menu that runs along the top, with A/V towards the right side of the screen and no 'Tally' option under encode settings.
I'm running birddog firmware 4.5.3790-LTS, but it's also a P100 so not sure if it actually supports NDI5? (so also maybe didn't get that firmware)

Yep, that's where I got the firmware from. It appears to be the current/latest available for my camera

I can check my BD studios where the setting is when I get into the office again. They are not updated yet.
The beta is also available for the P100. You might want to try that as well.
The beta to me looks more be in beta in regards to the freeD support.
