I did my first tests with SRT in vMix 23.0.27 and I found out, that I can only send an output over SRT when the "Hardware Encoder" is ticked on.
Is that a problem in the beta or standard behaviour? If it's meant to be like that, why am I able to enable SRT without Hardware Encoding? ;)

Are you using HEVC? If so, the following from the help file applies:

When using HEVC on Windows 10, the "HEVC Video Extensions" from the Microsoft Store is required to be installed.

Hardware encoding may use a graphics cards own drivers, hence why it may work while software encoding may not.

No HEVC. Just plain H.264 for the first tests. Sending SRT just didn't work without hardware encoding (tested on three different machines).
But basically you're saying it should work without hardware encoding and is maybe a problem in the latest beta? :)

But thanks for the hint with HEVC. I'll test if that works.

Well, yes it appears there was a bug in the last few beta updates.
This should now be fixed with 23.0.0.29!

Thanks for the report!
