Greetings, everyone!
I am a vMix programmer at Casablanca Online, a leading company in broadcast solutions in Brazil. For more details about our company, visit our website at: https://www.casablancaonline.com.br/?lang=en.
This discussion centers on enhancing the use of overlays in vMix by proposing a separation and organization of overlay usage across Mix inputs. This adjustment could streamline workflows, allowing each Mix input to have customized overlay configurations and improving scene transitions and layouts.
Current Situation:
Currently, I can use overlays 1 through 4 across Mixes 1 to 16. However, when overlay 1 is activated in Mix 1 and subsequently activated in Mix 2, it stops displaying in Mix 1.
Suggestion:
I propose an independent overlay management feature, where using overlay 1 in Mix 1 would not impact its use in Mixes 2, 3, 4, etc. This separation would enable overlays to be used independently in each Mix, greatly enhancing production flexibility.
Thank you for considering this suggestion. I am open to discussions and feedback to further explore and refine this idea.Versão em Português:Saudações a todos!

Esta discussão aborda sugestões para melhorar o uso de overlays no vMix, propondo a separação e organização do uso de overlays entre as entradas de Mix. Essa alteração pode otimizar o fluxo de trabalho, permitindo configurações personalizadas de overlays em cada Mix e aprimorando transições e layouts de cenas.
Situação Atual:
Atualmente, posso usar os overlays de 1 a 4 em Mixes de 1 a 16. No entanto, quando o overlay 1 é ativado no Mix 1 e depois ativado no Mix 2, ele deixa de ser exibido no Mix 1.
Sugestão:
Proponho uma funcionalidade de gerenciamento independente de overlays, onde o uso do overlay 1 no Mix 1 não afetaria seu uso nos Mixes 2, 3, 4, etc. Essa separação permitiria que os overlays fossem usados de forma independente em cada Mix, aumentando consideravelmente a flexibilidade de produção.
Agradeço pela consideração desta sugestão. Estou à disposição para discutir e receber feedbacks para explorar e refinar ainda mais essa ideia.

This makes a lot of sense.
If I'd have tried it, I'd have reported it as a bug. I'm still not entirely sure that it's not.
While I understand why it may behave like that from a logistical perspective, especially with how the 4 Overlay channels have historically worked, if they're being opened up to all 16 Mixes, they should be completely independent of one another.

Hi,
Please note we are not accepting feature requests here, use the Feature Requests forum, as vMix 28 is a lock and no new features will be added (other than small tweaks, which this is not).
Regarding the overlays, there are only 4 overlay channels total, so this is the same behavior as without the mixes, if you try to enable Overlay 1 when it is already active, it will just move to where you have enabled it.
Regards,
Martin vMix
