Hi,

having finished a busy show with PPT shares and screen demo shares, along with a web cam and audio back from each presenter.

I checked out the new beta vcall and love the way we can screen share or web cam share and switch back, but a great feature would be to send screen share down one vcall feed and webcam and audio down another vcall channel.

Guess it could be an advanced feature.

Obvs be nice to have more vcall channels available on vmix as this would consume two channels

cheers,

Pete.

We just tried this idea (two tabs - one showing camera - one showing presentation) - it's something our clients would require - being able to do a multi layer - remote presenter and remote media on same screen.
- worked really well
That was before lunch ...

Reconnected to take some screen grabs for possible client instructions and it didn't work so well ..
caller (me) receiving constant echo of myself - which makes sense - the system doesn't know that the two calls are on one computer - so why would it want to mute one entirely.

The only way to do it successfully was use current version vmixcall for camera and beta version for screen sharing and mute that sites audio in the tab settings.
So - in conclusion
I shouldn't have had lunch !!
OR we require two separate sites all the time (?)

But the idea is sound - and required.

I think you should switch off the "audio back" from vMix for the second call which does the screen sharing

We really need a solution to this that is robust. 2 vmix calls is pretty clunky for an end user, especially when you consider zoom, whereby, teams etc all do it anyway. Each caller would have camera feed and auxiliary feed (some window shared)

The internet clickers out there are fine but that means we need a copy of the deck which is often last minute.
clickers can also be unreliable and unified integration is the pits.

How do we get on this before we lose business due to convenience of zoom etc. ?
