Hello,

I am looking for a live video mixer with transition, title and overlay capabilities for my LED video wall.
I found the nice "Fullscreen" feature of VMix that seems very helpful for LED video walls.
With the "Fullscreen"-feature I can defined an output window with exact position and size on my desktop.
My video wall has the size 768 x 640 and that is not an standard video resolution and don't have the ratio 16:9 or 4:3.

To see the quality and handling of the "Fullscreen" output I create an output with video and embedded image and text.

I used the setting:

Display
--> Output Size: 768 x 576
--> Output Aspect Ratio: Normal
--> Fullscreen Position: 100 100 768 640
--> Preview Size: Auto
--> Input Size: 208 x 156 ???

I use three inputs:
--> Videofile Wildlife.wmv (from Windows 7)
--> TickerHD.xaml from vMix (Overlay 1)
--> A xaml file generated from vMix Title Designer (Overlay 2)
There is an image and text embedded.

I see follow problem:
In the Output window of the mainscreen and in the Fullscreen window the video is ok.
The image, the text and the ticker text in the Output window of the mainscreen are also rendered clean.
But not in the Fullscreen window. The text are not really clean and also the image contains artefacts.
It seem the output is original rendered for 768 x 576 and then scaled to 768 x 640 for the Fullscreen window?
I attached two screenshot that shows the both Output windows.

What can I do to get also a clean rendered output in Fullscreen window?
I assume if I could change the Output size to 768 x 576 that will fix the problem, but there are only predefined sizes available.

Thanks
Alex

Hello,

I figured out a work around for me, but it is not really nice.
I choice an Output Size with pixel width and height greater then the pixel size of the LED video wall.
I set the fullscreen size on the same size of Output Size.
Then I use in Vmix just only the area of the Output that are corresponded with the size of the LED video wall.
Now the Vmix rendered the fullscreen in the same quality like the output.
The disadvantage of this solution is that the placing and sizing is more difficult because you have can not see the boundary of the LED video wall in Vmix.

Is there a possibility to set own values for the Output Size?

Thanks
Alex
