Hi, folks.
I am setting up vMix for our church to stream our services. The Facebook Live stream drops within only a couple of minutes. I AM able to use vMix to produce the content with PowerPoint and a PTZ camera and stream using OBS that captures vMix the output screen. This configuration works very well, but is clumsy and I want to get vMix to do the streaming too. It seems that if I can run vMix and OBS and successfully stream then vMix should be able to do it alone. As I watch the vMix stream, the CPU and GPU percentages are nominal but the total CPU is very high. Watching the GPU performance shows a constant flow until it sharply pegs and then drops to zero. Stream is lost. Any ideas? Thanks.

Your problem is most likely linked to your use of a Radeon Vega GPU in your system. NVIDIA cards are recommended. From the vMix Knowledge Base

Quote:
Avoid: Intel Integrated Graphics, AMD Radeon Graphics, NVIDIA "MX" series graphics on Laptops. NVIDIA Quadro cards with 3 digit model numbers (such as P600 or P520)

If you have a spare NVIDIA card that meets vMix specs, try using that and see if that solves the issue.
