Is this not already possible if you load your images into pre-assigned folders in your preset?
Then changing the contents of the folder will give you different graphics for your preset.
Or am I mis-understanding something?

I think ClementN has a good point, and asks for a feature that I find useful.

If I understand it right all vMix's file references to material (videos, images, graphic folders, etc) are absolute. This has to be considered for backwards compatibility if one would also be able to use relative paths.

A tentative idea would be to add "Work folder" as a new Setting section below "Options", or perhaps as a part of the "Options" section.

This section could offer one of two modes:

Use absolute paths (Default, full path file name referencing)
Use relative paths (and a field for the "Work folder" where the path should start)


In addition i strikes me that a supplementary feature for missing files might come in handy.

File missing when absolute paths are used: Instead of giving an error, ask the user to find the file (or skip)

When relative paths are used: First ask the user to re-specify the Work folder, and then try finding file there.
If the file is still not found, ask the user to find the file (or skip).

In both cases, if the user selects "skip", then create the input us Offline (upcoming feature in v13).


Could this work, and solve ClementN's need?

I have the same beasic need. My current fix is to use Photos inputs (which points to a folder) for all the graphics, and then replace the files in that folder for each production. After that there is some tweaking to select which "photo" should be used in which Input module. Cumbersome, but at least I don't have to rebuild the whole preset.

A couple of other users have run into similar problems (that motivates this request) and discuss it in the general topic Easy way to develop remotely and "package and go". In one of the posts I summarize the issues and describe my current work-around.
