I would like the option to set my own password for the vMix call, even if it is still only numerals. I would also prefer that the password wouldn't reset every time I go to check the settings.

All vMixCall passwords must be unique so that connections can be established correctly between users.
If vMix lets you choose your password, it is very likely that this password is already in use for somebody else and your callers are routed to the wrong place.

save it as preset, so you can have always the same password

I also would really like this option!
Now i always do send the link last-minute to the callers and test it last-minute.

it's discribed often in the forum
setup a call
save a preset
next time you can append only the "call" preset and have the same password again
that works very well
as DWAM writes, the PW is unique, so it's difficult to mae our own

I would like a user defined password on top of the call provided password. (Or like a 4 digit pin)

I've run into situations where a call was reused and an old caller used the same password instead of a new one they were given, so it kicked the person that was on the old call. This way we can keep a current login, and just change out the pin for new shows.
