Sorry if you saw a related post on the Facebook Group. Figured I'd ask here too as I haven't found a solution.

I am deploying a vMix system for a customer installation. I have a couple PTZ cameras and created a few inputs at different positions. The idea is to have one click operation from these presets. To do that I can either change the click action from Preview to a transition or Quick Play, or they can just use the Quick Play button for each input. The problem comes when simply switching between these PTZ inputs with Quick Play, because after the switch, vMix loads the previous input into Preview.

What happens is that the input thumbnail for the previous input (the one that is now in preview) is no longer the frame grab image for that preset position. I then have two input presets showing the live preview, which is undesirable. Only the current input on Program would accurately be the live preview. However, this wouldn't be accurate if someone were to move the camera at this point. I understand why it does this, but it prevents the user from seeing the actual PTZ preset angle for that input.

Is there a way I can have the PTZ inputs never show live preview and only show the frame grab?

OR

How can I have the input I just clicked Quick Play on remain in preview after the transition?

OR

I tried using Triggers with OnTransitionOut and On Completion to load a different (or the same) input into preview but that doesn't seem to work.
