I'm running the Pro version of vMix & wanted to figure out how the outgoing feed for vMix Call with multiple callers. To be exact: does vMix intuitively understand that I'm sending the same feed to 2-3 callers & combine them, or does it stream 2-3 separate streams?

@ cd6

Separate and independent return feeds, you can send each caller different audio and video return feeds.

I think he want's to know (and I'm interested myself also) if every caller gets the same feed back, can I save bandwith or is there really a sperate backfeed even when I send the same video and audio?

@ xaver

It is recommended you have 2Mbps upload/download per caller:

Outside of bandwidth, what about the actual encoding?

If I am sending multiple callers the same video/audio return feed (incl. same res/bitrate), does VMIX only encode it once and duplicate across the board (more efficient) or is it encoding separate feeds for each one using up more system resources.
