Hi All,

We always have to count in our presenters and it would be great if we could give them a VT clock on their screen so that they can always see how long is left. We give them a feed of the main output for them to commentate on etc. and it would be great if any VT's or replays (anything that shows a timer under the main output on the vMix interface) could be shown on an external monitor/multiview etc.

Any ideas if this can be done? If not, does anyone have any workarounds that they use?

Thanks a lot!

thinking aloud im thinking desktop capture (cropped) added to whatever input you wanted to output to the presenter

As of now, I just do like Barney said. I have a desktop capture and crop the Output down to just the time codes. Then I make sure that it is input 4 so it is directly under the output in the Multiview. Not the cleanest option, but it works for my commentators.

We were thinking something similar but it's such a clunky workaround and adds needless stress to the main PC.

I wonder if this is a feature that could be added or if it's not very widely needed. I'll submit it anyway.

Thanks for the ideas though.
