Has vMix been tested on a Snapdragon X Elite chip on any of the new laptops? Has it been approved?
Any issues or concerns? What are the limitations if any?

Same question! Have been running three Mevo Core cameras via their multi-cam app on an iPAD. Would much rather run them as NDI cameras on vMIX, but I need a laptop with a minimum of 10 hours run time, and can not get a power cord to it. The new Microsoft or ASUS Snapdragon laptops would be PERFECT, as I will not be pushing vMIX very hard at all, GPU wise. But, I hate to buy one, just to test. Not fair to Amazon! Looking forward to an answer.

Nobody EVER answers any of my questions here, so will answer myself. Ordered a cheap Lenovo Yoga Slim 7x ($1000 on sale) with the Snapdragon Elite-X, only 16 GB of fast RAM, and what I would guess is the minimum number of Adreno GPU cores. vMix Pro, 27.0.0.81 ran fine. I was able to ingest the three Mevo Core cameras over NDI, switch between them, and concurrently stream at 50 Mbps using GPU crushing quality, to YouTube. It wasn't great. And, honestly, despite spending many years becoming a vMix expert, I think my time with the platform is nearing completion. OBS 30.2.3 is an outstanding product, and outperformed vMix as an encoder. More tweakable too.
