In Vmix23 there is only an option to select all Cameras / Calls / Audio Inputs as NDI outputs

It would be nice to have an option that other input sources like videos, pictures, powerpoints can be selected as NDI outputs too.
In addition it would be helpful to select which inputs are activated as NDI outputs with a checkbox in each input configuration

No, read the Help https://www.vmix.com/hel...orkDeviceInterface1.html

And search this forum for tons of requests/duscussions/workarounds concerning what v23 offers EDIT: in relation to what you ask ask in this topic...

Hi Richard,

yes, I know that you can use the 4 NDI Outputs for this purpose. But in our productions the 4 Outputs are already in use for other things like additional srt streams with/without overlays, additional audio versions.....


If you use the option to select all Cameras / Calls / Audio Inputs as NDI outputs you will get additional NDI sources not all of which are needed. If you have a lot of inputs that would be a little bit confusing. With an option where you can select which inputs are used as NDI outputs it would be more clearer and would not need additonal cpu resources.

And if the 4 outputs are already in use there is no chance to get a video, picture or powerpoint input out of vmix for use in other applications or devices like a video wall, display etc. Surely there are other ways to get this problem solved (external players like vlc with NDI etc.) but it would be more convinient to handle all resources in vmix and send them via NDI to all your other devices.

Thanks for the clarification.
As pointed out here https://forums.vmix.com/...-4-NDI-outputs#post88295 I think you cannot get what you ask for...

Please take care of the bandwidth NDI produces. This can quickly be a problem.
