Yes this would be great to have a button with 1,2,3 etc. So at a glance we can see if a stream is up or down individually.

I'd like to bring this up again. It would be great to have individual start/stop buttons for each active streaming service at the bottom of vMIX.
(1) So we know if one of the streams drops out (just one glance)
(2) And most importantly, as an example, if we wish to live stream on Periscope AND Facebook at the same time. We are able to start both streams at the start of the program.
(As soon as you turn on the stream, Facebook is on-air instantly, but Periscope needs you to go into the app and start it, same with YouTube, you need to go in and "Preview Stream" then "Start Stream" from the web interface of the scheduled stream)
Having different start/stop buttons will help us out with multi-cdn streaming and starting the stream at the correct time.

+1, and chiming in that I feel the Streamer functionality needs some other improvements. Partly due to what have been pointed out in this topic so far. Partly because other related things. For example, the stream to Facebook is not terminated before "End stream" is pressed in the Facebook settings. Besides being confusing, it's cumbersome when sending more than one stream to Facebook. In additione there seems to be a bug regarding Facebook privacy control. It also seems that even though I select to remain logged in to Facebook, that does not always work. I am still working on putting my ideas/suggestions/requests together...

I wanted to start a new topic but I found out that I'm not the only one looking for this feature.
My real life example: I'm using vMix for a 24/7 broadcast, streaming to an RTMP server. Some events need to be streamed to an additional platform, with different bitrate and resolution. To do this I have to stop streaming, add the second destination in Streaming Settings, and start streaming again.
I would like to be able to start/stop and manage the three available streams independently.

My use case is that I stream live ice hockey games on my PPV/subscription platform and would like to do "free pre-game" or "free first period" on Facebook/YouTube.
Another example that rings true would be the case of a church service or other event where there is live performance or recorded playback of copyright music — 'OK' to broadcast to a private receiver in (for example) a second venue, but you can't send to public. Being able to independently start a second public stream for the non-copyright component of the event would be very useful.

We had a case this last week where we were streaming to 2 destinations and the second destination was having problems getting feed out, we had to cut both streams to fix the problem with the first.

The most common or likely scenarios for us are dealing with a problematic stream and having to cut both to cut one (or diagnose), and the other is streaming continuously to one destination (eg your own web site), while starting and stopping multiple events at another destination(s).

+1 I really need this feature for our church stream. We don't always want to stream the entire service on certain platforms.

For those who need this right now already: you can do this now with a restream.io pro subscription. It's not expensive and easy to use. Would be cool to have it in Vmix as well though.
