Thanks: 4 times
We have recently added PowerPoint slides to our church production. We use the vMix feature to process the slides into an input list of images. I have coded VB scripts/shortcuts to display the slides side-by-side with one of the live cameras. We also have shortcuts defined to advance the slides forward or back. This all works, but it does not provide a preview which slides are coming next. One way to see what slides are coming up is to right-click on the slides input and bring up the slideshow pop-out. By leaving this window open, the operator can see what slide is coming next.

Unfortunately, the size of each slide in the pop-out is fixed; and the size that vMix selected for the slides makes the text too small to read on some slides. (We use a 40px font size in the slides, but allow PowerPoint to shrink the font down to ~25px for long passages.)

Please consider a request to add a feature that configures the size of each slide in the pop-out. For our purposes, sizes of 100% (current design), 150% and 200% would be a huge benefit.

Could you add the PowerPoint as 2 inputs in vMix and then just advance one of the inputs +1 ahead of the other. Then make a shortcut that advanced both inputs at the same time?
