List with Different Media Types(Pictures & Videos) Question
I am using multiple media types(jpeg, mp4, gif) in a single list, more to learn than anything else. When I do this the images in the list flash by quickly and then it goes to the videos I have in the list. Is there a way to change the timing for the Images so you could set "Image - 5 seconds" then Video for the "runtime" of that?
I am sure I am doing something wrong or if I am mis-using a tool, Hammers are not for Screwing Screws(must remember).
What options do I have or ways to do this even if it is not a list.
Thanks in advance for all your help.

Hi Rich
for pictures it's better to use "photos" input which provides all the settings required for a real slideshow...

@ RichShumaker
Sounds like the "Playlist" feature is what you want to use for mixing various Inputs (videos and pictures) automatically.

Thanks IceStream - I see the PlayList button. I will try that out except that is a way to go between inputs(I could use Photos and List together in that). I wanted to mix media together in a single list. So I will explore PlayList later today to see what I can do.
Thanks Guillaume - Drats I thought I could do both with one. I don't want to switch back and forth from a 'List' to a 'Photos'. I was hoping to run a multimedia show automagically to make the 1 man banding easier.
I guess I am asking for a feature request to allow 'Image' and 'Photos' to be in a 'List' with specific timings. Honestly I am chasing the multimedia Dragon here and vMix probably can't fix it. I used Scala MM products on my PC after they switched from the Amiga and it spoiled me. I could drag and drop photos and videos into a playlist and move them around and create random transitions and add music to the whole thing. I would be able to set up the whole 'presentation' in 2 minutes and it was super professional & easy. I always would tell people it was PowerPoint on steroids.
Now I am waiting for the comment then NDI Scala to vMix. If Scala MM wasn't really really long in the tooth I might try that.
Thanks again everyone for your help.
