Is there a way to make a stinger transition follow the outline of the stinger instead of having to make it fullscreen to make the cut over point?
This is my example. I want the video from the preview to be in the black area behind the W

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

That's helpful but not quite what I'm looking for. Hard to believe there's not a way to do this but I can't figure it out

Essentially, the Stinger Transition is only a "Cut" hidden by an Overlay and what you need with that video is a "wipe" to a third element (i.e. A/B transition on screen simultaneously) which is not currently possible with vMix.
I would suggest possibly reworking your video with a comet trail of some sort (in the black) that fades to an alpha channel as it crosses the screen, that way you can make the "Cut" when the Stinger is fullscreen and it will give a similar effect to what you are looking for.

I made a very similar transition work that is a horizontal video clip transition that never goes full screen, and thus instead of a simple cut underneath, requires a properly timed horizontal wipe underneath the video transition, with these (sorta) simple steps:

- make shortcut on a keyboard or midi button...

Function = OverlayInput3 (or whichever overlay channel you want)
Input = whatever your video with alpha channel is

- make two triggers on whatever your video with alpha channel is

First Trigger =

Trigger = OnOverlayIn
Function = Wipe
Input = Preview
Duration = 500 (might need to adjust this)
Delay = 200 (will need to adjust this delay to fit your wipe)

Second Trigger =

Trigger = OnCompletion
Function = OverlayInput3Out
Input = Preview
Duration = 500

Voila!
