Support has confirmed that Twitter has disabled vMix Social access for at least the time being. Could not login this morning. Got an error logging in and contacted vMix support. They are seeking resolution.

ah, I'm not alone.
I didn't see any real confirmation of the problem out there in the well-known FB groups.
Not so happy with this, ran 2 shows without it.
Hope its fixed next Sunday.

Hope its fixed next Sunday. In order to fix something, it has to be broken. This "bug" we discuss here is not a bug. Is the new feature of how the new boss of twitter wants to be..

Just to add some clarity for those unaware of all of Twitters changes, earlier this year they announced changes to their API which are now going live. These changes include removing the ability for free API access to 'read' tweets which is needed for 3rd party apps such as vMix social or many others to get tweet data and display it in some way. The updated API pricing can be found here: https://developer.twitter.com/en/products/twitter-apiIn short, the free tier just allows posting some tweets. To read tweets for such in vMix social would cost the user $100 per month for reading up to 10,000 tweets. And if vMix was to cover the cost on their end for all users of vMix social they would need to be on the Enterprise tier, which from what people have been reporting the cheapest Enterprise tier starts at $42,000 per month. The outcome of this is that it would be ludicrously expensive for vMix to use the Enterprise tier so that's not even a sensible option, and the free tier is not usable for reading tweets, so the only remaining option from the way I see it would be for vMix to update vMix Social to allow end users that are willing to pay $100/month to subscribe to that tier and paste their apps credentials into vMix social so that it can use those credentials to make the API requests needed. If vMix was to not update the only remaining choice is to use a non-vMix service for retrieving tweets (which would still require a $100/month fee) and then using that as a data-source.

Hola a todos. Sigo buscando desde abril, una solución para implementar los twiter "X" en los rotulos de vmix. No encuentro nada que sea igual de rapido que era vmix social. Alguien tiene altún tipo de solución o está utilizando algo parecido con otra aplicación de terceros? Gracias
Hello everyone. I have been searching since April for a solution to implement the "X" tweeters in the vmix labels. I can't find anything that is as fast as vmix social was. Does anyone have any kind of solution or are you using something similar with another third-party application? Thank you
