I want to use the Trigger feature to StartRecording based on the presence of ANY audio volume in a particular Input. In this particular application, it is the Web Browser Input.

For example: I want to set vMix to begin recording the entire vMix Fun Time Live Show from the first opening comments by Martin & Tim. I sometimes I enjoy the pre-show banter as much as anything.

So, I have set http://www.vmix.com/live/ as the URL in the Web Browser Input. In that same Input, I have set Triggers to OnAudioMeterDB6 to StartRecording. And, I have clicked the Play button on the Dacast embed so that it Refreshes every 20 seconds.

For now, the next loud noise in that webpage will start the recording. But Tim & Martin are so soft spoken, it might be 5-10 minutes into the show before Tim's makes a mistake and cusses loudly. (We all know how Tim cusses!) I don't want to miss the first 5-10 minutes of the show or hope that Tim cusses loudly.

So would a OnAudioDB1 do the trick? Or is there a better way for me to automatically record the show?

Thanks.

OnAudioMeterDB1 will make it lest sensitive as it will only trigger when signal reaches -1Db. To make it trigger earlier use OnAudioMeterDB6 or OnAudioMeterDB18 (most sensitive). I haven't tried it, but that is how most Audio Triggers work.

Aha! That should work.

Tim's secret is save. But, of course, now everyone knows. Sorry, Tim.
