Hi Ettore

Although it is not recommended, you can do it. Just go to settings, tick the "show advanced settings" option, go to "options" tab and tick "allow multiple instances"

Perfect the two sessions opens it in a stream stream session to a wowza server while with the other i have to stream on facebook. When I launch streams to facebook I get the following error: "Capture Device is still in use, close any open programs and try again"
what should I do?
thank you

try NDI input of the camera in the second session
in first session make sure you have External output/ndi cameras checked

You can stream to Wowza and FB at the same time with a single instance of vMix btw...

And if you want to control independently each of your streams, I recommend to use vMix for the first stream and use External Out to feed another encoder like OBS for example

Then simply use External2 Out going to your 2nd encoder.

There are solutions for "sub-switching" specifically for External2 at the same time as for PGM (with a single instance):

- in this video I demonstrate how to do it with vMixUTC:

- in this one, I use a Midi Controller:
