sended.

hi again,

thank you for updates but still giving me an error message.

vmix shows me some message about deinterlace method (bob) does not support vmr and dont load cameras, but i have not ticked vmr option. error report sended.
when i load cameras manualy, after select source options, i need go "i" and tick manualy the deinterlace option. deinterlace method is not loading with the source. this only occours when i choose bob deinterlace.

i tried the blend deinterlace method and no errors on saved profile. vmix load all inputs with no problems.

i can provide some more information, if necessary, to fix the problem. thank you again for updates,

regards,

Hello, Martin,

Some feedback on great new video delay capabilities:

1. For video delay input please add additional option (default) in dropdown “Original” that would Save the original length of video delay. For example, if I have chosen to use 7sec delay, I would also like to be able to save 7sec delay and not only 10sec delay that keeps looping the 7sec delay.
2. Can you make it possible to use video delay while Saving it? At this point we see a black window when trying to use video delay that is being saved.
3. Can you change the default title for video delay to "input_name_time_date" (so that time is visible in title and its easier to identify the recording)?
4. Can audio also be recorded for recordings? (master audio)
5. At some point I noticed video delay time of 23.96 sec instead of chosen 20 sec in preview window, which doesnt seem right.
6. At some point video delay in preview or input windows shows the real-time video and not the delay, which is not good. Previously we were able to see the delayed video in video input also in Preview and input windows.

Also I got a blue screen when running the test version for the second time and trying to add new input - hauppauge usb live 2.

Any chance we can get checkboxes in Options to autostart and autofullscreen? This would help a lot for unattended vMix installations in case the computer gets restarted.

Thanks,
Dundurs

I actually meant "start automatically external" so that vMix virtual device is ready to be used.

Hoping you will consider the RECORD and STREAM status indicators as mentioned in my previous messages. Only showing the setup/start and green stop buttons can be confusing. A few times we thought we were recording but weren't and lost the show.

Famous Pictures,

Could you provide some suggestions on what the record indicator would look like and where it would appear?

Mauro,

1. What video format are you trying to load?

2. Can you describe further what is happening here?

6. Sharpen is not supported with deinterlacing due to graphics card limitation.

Regards,

Martin
