Sorry for the probably simple question. Transitioning from Wirecast, and trying to figure things out quickly.

I have a program which includes one camera, PowerPoint via NDI, and a few videos. Of course during the camera presentation I'll be switching back and forth to the PowerPoint, and I've figured out how to have my camera's audio stay on when switching, but when I switch to one of the videos, I need for it's audio to be solo, killing the camera's audio til the video ends and I switch back to the camera. Is there a way to have this occur automatically, or am I relegated to manually muting the camera's audio every time I switch to a video?

Thanks!
Steve

First of all, welcome to the vMix Forums.
As with all things vMix, there are usually several ways to do things.
In your situation, I assume you've enabled the camera audio to be active all the time, in order to turn it OFF when playing a video, you can use a "Trigger" on the video Input:
cog wheel of Video Input -> Triggers tab -> "OnTransitionIN"/AudioOFF/Camera Input -> Add
You'll probably want to turn it back on at some point, which can also be done with a Trigger, either an "OnTransitionOUT" function of the same video Input or an "OnTransitionIN" function on the Camera Input itself. Either one should work but really comes down to your overall workflow requirements. All-in-all, "Triggers" can be very useful but also somewhat convoluted if your set-up is complex (whatever you turn on, will likely have to be turned off and/or vice versa).
A simpler solution is to enable the "Automatically mix Audio" of the Camera Input and simply add it as a MultiView Overlay to the PowerPoint Input and disable its visibility (tic box next to Overlay #). This way, the Camera Audio will always be audible whenever either of those two Inputs is LIVE and OFF when not.
