Hi
I've recently set up a live event with 1 Main vMix PRO hosting the call for 8 remote partecipants using vMix Basic HD
The choice to use vMix on the remote caller is because I need 2 cams there
I've also set up a laser presenter for the remote users in the way that any button you press is triggering a shortcut that cut between the cams but since the "monkeys" working remotely are totally useless it happened often that they were not switching between the cams and I got the wrong one in the main deck
It would be really nice to have a native subsection in the web controller of vMix host of the remote shortcuts of vMix caller
I was then wondering if there was a way to handmade a solution in situation where you do not have time nor any control over firewall of remote locations
I've then figured out to set up a ssh connection opened from the remote caller to a server hosted on cloud that tunnels local 8088 port to a remote 8091-8098 for all caller
Next I made a dumb html page that embed all 8 WebController in a single page
<html><head><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
<title>Multi Web Controller</title>
</head>
<frameset rows="50%,50%">
<frameset cols="25%,25%,25%,25%">
<frame src="http://webcontroller.domain.ext:8091/">
<frame src="http://webcontroller.domain.ext:8092/">
<frame src="http://webcontroller.domain.ext:8093/">
<frame src="http://webcontroller.domain.ext:8094/">
</frameset>
<frameset cols="25%,25%,25%,25%">
<frame src="http://webcontroller.domain.ext:8095/">
<frame src="http://webcontroller.domain.ext:8096/">
<frame src="http://webcontroller.domain.ext:8097/">
<frame src="http://webcontroller.domain.ext:8098/">
</frameset>
</frameset>
</html>
Obviously SSL could be set up for better security but since I locked down the access to the hosted server allowing only callers public IPs to open ssh sessions and my public IP to access 8091-8098 ports I was not really worried about it
It works like a charm and allows to manage remote vMix caller shortcut easily from a tablet
I hope it can be useful to someone (or maybe there's an embedded function that does it natively and I'm a idiot :D)
Regards
Marco
