Hi All,

I'm testing vMix for dual computer productions, and one key aspect is consolidating all the sources into a single multiview. I couldn't do this [efficiently] in prior software, but it seems I ran into a rather significant bug if it came time to actually use the setup in production.

In testing, I had a black color source, with (lowest to highest):
-Program via NDI output in the upper right
-Preview via NDI output in the upper left
-Countdown clock via desktop capture above PVW
-Grid/label overlay image with alpha on top of everything
-There was also a window (full screen browser) capture, browser audio input, inactive NDI input, and offline camera input (ATEM) that were not part of the multiview, but loaded.

After assigning inputs to categories (first time using them) and needing to restart after adding an audio output (never an issue before), all of the multiview settings disappeared except for overlay 1. Even loading prior saved configs won't restore the proper multiview settings.

Is this a known issue and the setup somehow recoverable?

This hasn't happened while using sets, but (not wanting to lose multiview positions and sources absent any feedback), may this still be an issue for single sources like a color input, camera, NDI, etc?
