Hey there,

I do use vmix in an elite league sports venue and had great success so far. But every now and then I stumble over things which could be better or let's say even more convenient. I sure know it is always a question of effort and requests but I'll just let you know how my christmas wish to vmix looks like:
We create highlight clips through the save of a video delay option. As I do not want to have the recorded sounds go back to the speakers in the rink (average 5.000 spectators) I disable the audio-button and also disable the automatically mix audio box. So far so good.
BUT when I want to use the saved files for a post-game highlight reel for our youtube channel there is of course no sound with the files. And that sucks.

I would love to have an option like in the Outputs tab in the settings where I can choose if sound is not saved at all, saved only with the file on the hard disk or also saved with the input which got created.
In an other thread I read the request to recode all the audio part of vmix. Maybe a kind of a matrix (which input sound goes to which and how many outputs) could help here?


Greetings,
Daniel

This is exactly what many of my customers also need. vMix is used for highlight and streaming production in different professional sports. The problem is to switch audio on and off for different purposes. As described here by DeeJay you do not need audio for live output of video delays during an event. Sound will bother the audience then. But of course you need audio (live atmosphere) for rough cut and after-game purposes (YouTube/Facebook, upload to league server, image trailer for sponsor and so on).

My guess is to make a drop-down when adding a video delay (like in Add-Input / Capture). There you can select an audio source for the video delay at recording. An option within the delay list or clip will determine whether you play audio or not. So audio source of your choice will automatically be saved with the delay but you can decide to play recorded audio during highlights or not. With this solution you will have live audio saved with the highlight clips for after-game purposes. Maybe some new shortcuts like "DelayAudioOn/Off" will make it easy to toggle between both states.

Merry christmas.

With that major update for vmix comming up, I would like to bring my request from December back up. With all the redesigned Audio engine, this feature would be still awesome to have for me!

Yes please. For same reason as everyone else. It would save so much time for the cuts in sports videos.

Giving a choice makes the application more usable.

Add me to that wish list. I filmed my first hockey game today and found that I can't use any of the replays in a highlight reel because it lacks audio. Annoying and time consuming!

Superawesome idea: when the replay is added to a list automatically it has no audio (or played at reduced speed). But when you add your own list it has audio. Perhaps if it has another color or something.

vMix good, lack of audio bad!
