How can Web Captioner caption the master audio from vMix?

All I can see for option is "Listening - Default - Line (NewTek NDI Audio) which gives me nothing vmix caption.PNG (11kb) downloaded 8 time(s).

I installed that NDI plug in but now I am left with microphone inputs only.

microphones.PNG (17kb) downloaded 1 time(s).

How can I point Web Captioner to vMix audio channels directly?

Thanks

Make sure NDI is on in vMix settings (e.g. Output1). That will give you an NDI audio source from vMix.

Alternative to NDI:

Install https://www.vb-audio.com/Cable/ and in vMix Audio Output set one output (e.g. Master) to the Virtual cable input and then in Chrome use the Virtual cable's Output as the mic input for Chrome.

Interesting I've actually ran a 3.5 to 3.5 cable front to back. Web Captioner performs well. The issue now is when the caption is on vMix as a layer I get about 2 minutes then the caption stops!!!

ok, so you are using a Real cable instead ;)

I regularly have this issue too. Web Captioner connects to vMix, starts captioning, and then stops a couple of minutes later. Generally it suddenly starts again 10 or 15 minutes later. Any known solution to this?
