I'm trying to look for an option to reduce my inputs in VMIX due to limited PC resources.

In our broadcast, we use separate inputs to show the active speakers. I.e. if we have 3 speakers, we create atleast 3 inputs to capture their video, and 3 inputs (with foreground designs) to show them one at a time.

So instead of creating 3 inputs (with foreground), I'm thinking of using a single input, and use SetLayer to change it's multiview and show whichever speaker needs to be shown. However, it'll need atleast 3 shortcuts to trigger the SetLayer functions. I want to combine these 3 shortcuts. I.e.

1. Pressing F12 key, SetLayer Function will show Speaker 1.
2. If I press F12 key again, SetLayer will show Speaker 2.
3. Lastly, if I press F12 key again, SetLayer will show Speaker 3.

I feel that this will be useful specially if we need to show 2 speakers simultaneously. Please help.

Or you use a trigger to change the dynamic input when the layer transitions in (with a small delay)

I'm sorry mavik but I couldn't visualized your suggestion. Though I maybe its similar to the approach I used below:

1. Create DynamicInputs/Shortcuts that will change the Layers of my main inputs (with diff layouts).
2. Create a script to apply the same setlayer commands to all inputs (with diff layouts).
