Hello all,

I want to use vmix on my laptop for my events where i cant carry desktops.
I want to see the output window on the big screens.
I am using laptop so i am unable to use decklink cards so i am expecting that
Can i use the laptops bulit in HDMI port or VGA port or ETHERNET port to produce the output window only.

I tried connecting through VGA but its showing me all the stuff including running software on main screen where as i want to show only output window not the whole software operating.

Also want to know what is in Setting-Display-Output device option. Where we can select monitor screens 1,2,3,4. How to use that its not making any difference even it is changed.

Thanks in advance.

You need to tell your windows to expand the desktop to the second screen, instead of "mirror"ing the laptop screen. How to do this depends on your graphics card/driver.

Once you enabled the extended desktop in windows, you can set "output screen" to "2" in vMix' settings dialoge.

I want to extend the laptop output to 4 LCD screens.
I m thinking to use VGA splitter which i have but i am reading the post that splitter cannot be recognised for extending desktop.
How should i achieve that..?
