Hi all, I have a show coming up with three contributors who are all dialling in using vMix call on their iPads from remote locations. Using the web interface on an iPad with LTE is limited to 2Mbps so I'm wondering if a Microsoft Surface Go (which runs Windows 10 and also has LTE for mobile coverage) would be enough to run vMix just for 1 Channel of vMix call so I could receive a 4Mbps feed (vMix to vMix) and still be able to give them a Return feed? This is the surface Go im thinking to replace their iPads: https://www.harveynorman...gb-128gb-ssd-4g-lte.htmlIt has a Dual Core 1.6Ghz Processor 8GB RAM Intel HD GFX 615 Would vMix run ok on this Surface Go just for 1 channel of vMix Call (vMix to vMix) with return feed or am I missing something that makes this a bad idea? EDIT: Iv'e just noticed this runs Windows 10s rather than full Windows 10 so going to assume it prob wont be a good idea Cheers

In the days where mobile phones have good cameras build in you can use them. There is a free app called larix broadcaster, available for apple and google, that can stream SRT into your vmix. That way you have maybe the best and most secure conection to external contributors.

Thanks Mavik, SRT doesn't easily support a return feed with Mix- audio does it? I know there is a hack to do it on android devices with screen sharing but I want to keep the process as easy as possible for our contributors.
