I’m setting up a satellite media tour at the moment. A lot of broadcasters want to take their input by Skype, which produces a fairly grotty result often with bad lag.

I’m wondering whether there is a better way to send them a signal from vMix? I could ramp up the video on a vMix Call to 1080p… Does anyone know if that would be an acceptable input for a broadcaster?

Thanks!

Generally, they'll want to use only what they have in place / what they've tried. Skype is widespread, quick, and (very) dirty, so pretty much all of them figured out how to use it.

Does this need to be bi-directional? You-to-one, or you-to-many?

Only taking whatever video they want to send me for the client's reference, no further use my end. This is simply us-to-broadcaster, one at a time.

Never done that before. Is there a how-to you could point me at?

Thanks for responses!
