Magewell just released a new audio-only streaming encoder that supports matrix style transcoding of analog, AES67, USB, NDI, and SRT audio. Unfortunately, vMix does not yet support SRT streams without a video component.

The use case for this would be in remote productions where the cameras natively support SRT and are sending directly into vMix, but the audio is being mixed or captured separately. For example announcers and commentators at a sporting event, or a concert with live music. It is not always feasible to run an XLR cable from the mixing position into a camera located on a roof or another part of the stadium/venue.

During testing, vMix can and does successfully connect to the audio-only SRT stream, but does not pass the audio because the video portion is blank.

Please add support for audio-only SRT streams.

BTW, there's a new firmware for the Magewell Pro Convert Audio DX that enables sending video along the audio. That could solve the audio-only SRT Vmix limitacion

Here is the detail:
Support setting to send a default logo video for SRT TX.
Support auto rebooting periodically.
DEP (Dante Embedded Platform) supports the AES67 protocol.
Optimize the audio transmission latency of Dante protocol.
Fix the issue that the settings in Dante Controller and DDM cannot be saved after restarting the device.

Could you test it out?

I can confirm turning on the Stream -> SRT TX -> Logo setting in the Magewell Pro Convert AES67 does now allow audio to pass. The stats screen shows dropped video frames, probably due to the static logo, but the audio still passes.
