There are endless combinations of hardware out in the the world, you won't know for sure what your box will do until you do it.
As far as AI goes, I've uninstalled CoPilot and will continue to do so as it keeps trying to reinstall itself occasionally. I don't want any "help" and prefer to do things myself thank you. I've also removed a lot of what Windows comes with - Help, tips, suggestions, weather, searches, paint, clock, email, games - almost every stupid app as they are always doing things in the background. I've also removed permissions and privacy settings for almost everything as well. I only run vMix/DVS/NDItools/hardware drivers and treat it more like an appliance than a computer.
Yes, thank you, AudioGreg. We are planning to do all of that six weeks ahead of time. If everything looks good, the plan is a clean reformat and clean install of W11 and then Vmix and not much else.
We also treat it like an appliance.
You were right about Copilot re-installing itself. I uninstalled it before, but I checked, and it had already reinstalled itself (this is my daily driver).
We uninstall any program we do not expect to use.
If we have any problems, six weeks should give us time to go back to W10 temporarily while we troubleshoot orobtain other hardware.
Since we are not to NDI yet, we do not expect any problems at this time. Still, I am sure everyone on this forum knows how useful Vmix is, and we want to make sure we do not lose it. And that we can incorporate NDI when it is time.
I am pretty sure everything is 100% Windows certified. If it does not work with a clean install of W11 we will get something that does.
We are praying for the best, because we prefer Windows, and Vmix. It seems the ideal combination.
We look forward to Snapdragon X+ processors that can run Vmix on a mobile laptop with low power consumption.
Sorry if any of the answers to my questions might seem obvious to anyone else. I am not really a tech, but rather the alleged "talent" and the decision maker, and I am trying to find out our prospects of being able to stay on Vmix long term. If not then we need to research Apple, to have a plan just in case. But we would prefer to stay with Vmix, because the quality is better.
I am just trying to get a heads-up picture of the long-term prospects before the deadline, if that makes sense.
