Awesome, I'm already loving improvements, and some design changes :)

Tho, I have some problems, and if I found any other I'll post them in this post:

1. Lenovo web cam input not working in 10.0.0.36, works fine in 9.1.0.37, tried 32 and 64 bit versions it's the same
2.

Some suggestions:
1. Add audio options at every input, as for example audio from camera is built in, and I can't set it as input without audio, and every time I need to manually turn OFF audio on that input when I change the scene!
2. The problem I'm having isn't maybe related to VMix, but it works in OBS, when I want to send a hotkey from my iPad to VMix with Actions server app as for example turning off overlay, VMix automatically comes as the first software on desktop, and opens which isn't good, I want it to stay in background working, as OBS does!

I Love it!!! You are the best!!!!!! Thank you for the preview option!

Released an update (10.0.0.38) to resolve a couple of issues:

* Title presets were not applying correctly due to new live feature
* MP4 frame rate was incorrect
* Users could not change transition button when set as a Stinger

Hi Stefan,

There is now a new button in the bottom right hand corner which contains statistics
from all inputs. It is the button with the coloured bars.

It should give a greater view of any potential bottlenecks.

A 1280x720 4 Mbit MP4 is probably a good starting point for direct YouTube upload.
I'm not sure the frame rate matters to YouTube that much so sticking with the source is recommended.

hi martin, glad to see this new preview.

after a little testing, found some issues that might be help you to improve v10:

*green screen in few first frames when start mp4 recording;
*on streaming feature, 64kbps audio data rate is not possible to select, vmix says "Invalid Data Rate", error report sended, choosing 96kbps it streams at 64kbps;
*mixing at "pal 50p" and streaming at "pal 25p and 50i" works fine but when starting mp4 recording at "pal 50p" my firewire cameras slows down to 21fps some moments after and some blocks are displayed on inputs. recording at "pal 25p and 50i" works well. (The idea is mixing and recording at 50p and stream at 25p)

recently, we upgraded our cpu to an Intel 4770 and our motherboard to an asus z87-c. we are using an amd hd 5750 1gb. we hoping to change our graphic card to a geforce in short time.

for those who have experiencing firewire problems, i recommend LAV Video Decoder... this is an extremely super powerfull stable decoder. for me, it works better than any other vídeo decoder.

edit: 64kbps MONO

its realy strange, in v9 i streamed at 64kbps, 1 channel. i believe that 96kbps is the minimum supported for Stereo - 2 channels, but for Mono - 1 channel, the minimum must be 32kbps. maybe some dropdown list with "Mono - Stereo" or "1 Channel - 2 Channels" in streaming feature would be nice.

for the mp4 issue, i thinked the same as you. when i stop the recording all comes back to normal... the cpu usage for vmix is around 20%-25%... global cpu usage on task manager is 60% peak. note that i am using 1920x1080 for mixing, recording and external output (then i do a resize to 640x360 in streaming feature)

sorry for this question that is not related with the above, which software do you recommend for a better resize on output? vmix or FMLE?

edit: to clarify this post, i am using aac encoder

Hi Grimble,

If you haven't sent error reports already, please send them.
Have you tried re-installing? vMix 10 includes a codec adapter
for the other codecs that needs to be registered so maybe something strange
happened during install.
