Hi

I've started working at a new job, where they do a lot of webinars in Zoom.
They "produce it" using the regular camera input as well as the screen share function, where you can also add another camera source.

I'm slowly trying to introduce vmix to them, and would prefer to do everything in vmix before sending a mixed to Zoom. But for now they are still doing it with the screen share function.

Trouble is that when vmix is installed, even if not running, will populate several sources as available inside Zoom.

zoom sources

Unfortunantely, Zoom is pretty terrible at handling more than 2 sources, when you want to activate/deactivate screen sharing, and will default to the first on the list.

Also when you are in screen sharing mode, there is an option for camera switching, that instead of switching between the 2 active sources, will cycle through all the available ones.

switch camera

This is terrible way to do it imho, so until Zoom hopefully fixes this, i would like "vmix video" sources only show up in Zoom when we need them.

Can anyone help with this?

thanks in advance
