Hello!

I am a very new user to vMix. I am running it to live stream our church service. We have vMix basic and are allowed 4 inputs. Our inputs are:
1-A presentation input from another computer (think power point)
2-audio
3-camera 1
4-camera 2

I would like to figure out how to add titles to the screen so when the pastor takes the stage or someone else is speaking, then I can display their name on the screen. When I’ve tried to make a title, it says we need to upgrade to add inputs.
The presentation input is essentially just used for displaying Bible verses when the Pastor is referencing them. Any help would be greatly appreciated-thank you!

Remember I’m a newbie..

Thanks,
Mike

@ racer5112

If you are able to connect your audio Input to a Camera, then you will have a spare Input for a Title.
Another option is to connect both cameras to an ATEM Mini which will open up an Input.
A third option is to close the PowerPoint Input and add a Title Input, then close the Title Input and add the PowerPoint Input, and so on and so forth as required (not exactly convenient, but it will work).
