Hello, I have designed a time system for drones and I would like to do postproduction in real time with Vmix, but I see that it takes pre-defined texts and what I would like is to be able to send text and times in real time by serial port from the controller Arduino..
I do not know if this is possible, I searched all the menus and options and I can not find a com or serial port for this ..

I already have this done with OSD in black and white, but it is very ugly and I want something more colorful and pretty ...
Here is an example:




Thank you

you could simply let the serial data be send to a title

here is an example of a Timer/Clock read from a serial port being send to vMix (lower right)
We were allowed to read the serial data from the local timing equipment and converted it with a little external app to send it to vMix. It didn't interfere at all with official users

Serial Clock reading to vMix

Replaced pointing camera at the clock

Great then!!
It's what I need to send times and ratings by serial port ...

Is there any serial command manual to work on a conversion application from my system to Vmix?

Have an app read the serial data and let it send that using a httprequest to vMix

See the Help Files

Thank you so much! It's what I'm looking for!!

I just have to make an application in visual basic to transform the commands of my system into serial port 9600 baud in HTTP commands for the Vmix ..

Although the examples are not very clear, I managed to do FADE, but I could not change the text with the command:

Http://127.0.0.1:8088/API/?Function=SetText&Input=877bb3e7-58bd-46a1-85ce-0d673aec6bf5&SelectedName=Headline&Value=Hello

Does anyone have an example of how to do it? Or a sample to try?

Looks Correct though

easy way to test is to directly put the instruction in a browser addressbar

as input you could also use it's input number

Are there any examples or configuration files to load into the Vmix and to be able to test grids of drop-down classifications in text or cvs?
