I have the need to create a 6-up multiview and send it out via SDI. It consists of 5 cameras and the Program output (so people in Studio B can see all the cameras of Studio A along with the Program output).

I've gotten it to work by adding External 1 as an input via NDI (essentially sending NDI from vMix back to itself as an input). Is there a better way to get Program (external 1) available to to use in inputs without using NDI?

Hope that all makes sense.

Thanks!

@ roverradio

Which edition of vMix are you using?
Is the "Fullscreen" MultiView output an available option for you?

19 Pro (now testing 20 as well).

Unfortunately I need to be able to customize what's shown and sizing/positioning a little more than the available fullscre3en multiview options.

Of course I could also take an output from our VideoHub and route PGM/Ext1 to an available SDI input (may be a little less resource intensive than using NDI, perhaps?)...was just wondering if there was a way I am missing.

it's probably not all that common a request I suppose, but as vMix adds more outputs and people have more complex needs for return feeds for vmxix calls, etc. I can see it becoming a little more common.

roverradio, AFAIK using NDI is currently the easiest option.

Seems you have a similar need as I earlier put forward in the General discussion Output as an input? (for use as a Multiview source). So it might be time to make a Feature request for it.
