I’ve been streaming to both twitch and youtube for a while now but recently started streaming to periscope. But Periscope won’t stream at my 720p like I do with youtube and twitch and that’s when I noticed you can hit multiple providers but you can have a setting different for each one. What do other people do? Also, is there no way to add a new stream or stop one without killing all of them if you have one or more going? Seems silly.
Thanks!

You can activate the EXTERNAL output in vMix. Then you can use "vMix Video" and "vMix Audio" (virtual devices) in any external encoder, like FMLE, FFMPEG, VLC and so on... This way you can stream independently to several OVPs (depending on your machine's power)

Open a vMix project Click on EXTERNAL (it turns red) Open VLC Ctrl+C > Read from Capture Device (I forgot the exact english term) You should see vMix Video and vMix Audio in the list providing your output signal
Same for FFMPEG, FMLE, OBS, and so on...
If you forgot to activate EXTERNAL output, you should see bars

yeah i tried restream.io but it always gives me problems and plus its just a pass through so i can't change resolutions or anything unless thats changed. Wowza i'm looking at but seems like if vMix provides you 3 stream tabs it should allow you to configure each one independently. or at the very least allow you to stop one or start one without affecting the others.

Switchboard Live https://switchboard.live/creatorYou can configure each stream in vMix independently as to quality and destination, but I don't think there's a way to start or stop them individually.

There are three bitrate choices in the Streaming Quality window which match up with the 3 destinations. So if you have 1 and 2 enabled as destinations, tick the 1 and 2 boxes in the streaming quality to set them independently.

Just to be clear : if only first of quality settings is ticked it will be used for all separate destinations ?
