I wanted to evaluate the latency introduced by using H.264 encoding. The C922 does support H.264 encoding. I've used it in the mode in the past. https://en.wikipedia.org...nboard_video_compression I found that vMix did not allow the use of H.264 with this webcam. It returned an error, with a list of allowed resolutions & encoding types as follows: 2304x1296 Unknown (4999998) YUY2 2304x1536 Unknown (4999998) YUY2 2304x1536 Unknown (4999998) YUY2 640x480 NTSC 30p MJPG 640x480 NTSC 30p MJPG 160x90 NTSC 30p MJPG 160x90 NTSC 30p MJPG 160x120 NTSC 30p MJPG 160x120 NTSC 30p MJPG 176x144 NTSC 30p MJPG 176x144 NTSC 30p MJPG 320x180 NTSC 30p MJPG 320x180 NTSC 30p MJPG 320x240 NTSC 30p MJPG 320x240 NTSC 30p MJPG 352x288 NTSC 30p MJPG 352x288 NTSC 30p MJPG 432x240 NTSC 30p MJPG 432x240 NTSC 30p MJPG 640x360 NTSC 30p MJPG 640x360 NTSC 30p MJPG 800x448 NTSC 30p MJPG 800x448 NTSC 30p MJPG 800x600 NTSC 30p MJPG 800x600 NTSC 30p MJPG 864x480 NTSC 30p MJPG 864x480 NTSC 30p MJPG 960x720 NTSC 30p MJPG 960x720 NTSC 30p MJPG 1024x576 NTSC 30p MJPG 1024x576 NTSC 30p MJPG 1280x720 NTSC 30p MJPG 1280x720 NTSC 30p MJPG 1600x896 NTSC 30p MJPG 1600x896 NTSC 30p MJPG 1920x1080 NTSC 30p MJPG 1920x1080 NTSC 30p MJPG Unspecified error Thinking this odd, I reached for a C920...and found a similar result. vMix does not allow H.264.

I found only the Microsoft UVC drivers worked properly (the irony), but unsure if I was using MJPEG or h.264.

But it's possible that since installing Camera Settings associated with Brio I am using the Logitech driver.
