Hi

I want to set up two calls for a guest. One Call will bring in his camera. The other Call would bring in his desktop. I would be providing him with two separate passwords.

As host I would, of course be doing the switching from his desktop to his camera as needed.

What would be the steps to make this happen?

Also, as I think about it, as I switch to the caller’s desktop call I would want to ensure that I am still hearing his (or her) audio......

Thanks,

...Rowby.

I not sure you can (but I far from being super knowledgeable on this)

Having the functionality via vMix Call for the caller to share their desktop (specifically PowerPoint in my case) would be awesome if it becomes available

I did look at some gaming options where it was possible to stream the desktop via the webcam, but the options when I searched it did not look that impressive and switching from webcam to desktop via webcam and back again was cumbersome.

I think when you've seen it in use they are using desktop capture and often another copy of vmix if they're bought in remotely

Ah, so that's how they did it....

Hmmm.. I'll put in a feature request === but perhaps it's just not technically possible....

Or perhaps there's a workaround...

Already replied to your feature request but using SplitCam is a solution.
