Hello, everyone,
I was wondering the extent to which I can use vMix for recording the video. At this point when I set up vMix on a clean system, I only had the two default codecs available for recording - DV and MJPEG codec. After installing some codecs on my system I noticed that a few more codecs became available through vMix.
Since I am not an expert on video codecs and their stability with vMix, I was wondering if the community has had any experience with this and perhaps can help on choosing an appropriate codec. Im looking for the following setting in codec: 1. h.264 / mpeg4 2. possibility to set bitrate 3. possibility to resize to any size
Any help will be much appreciated, Dundurs

For h264, I recommend using Flash Media Live Encoder and configure it to save to file.
h264 requires a lot of CPU power to encode, so it is usually best to encode to file using something like CineForm Neoscene and then converting the AVI file to mp4 afterwards.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Martin vMix

I have been using FMLE for some time already to also record the video, but Im not completely satisfied with the encoding quality, especially for sports events when there is a lot of motion. From the perspective of hardware, there is no problem as we are using one of the latest i7.
Actually the h264 choice is only for one reason - disk storage, I could also use any other codec up to 5 mbitps.
