I'm using vMix to locally stream video to my church's nursery. We have three camera sources. While running the software a couple weeks ago, in a moment of panic (my cameras were not pointing where I wanted them) I went to hit the "Quick Play" button on a default view camera but accidentally hit "Close" instead. These buttons are right next to one another!? That put me down to two cameras. I had to scramble to re-add the camera input while jockeying between the two cameras I had left. As you can imagine, this only added to my current state of panic. :)

This situation would have also been prevented if there was a confirmation dialog asking me if I really wanted to close the input. That would allow users to recover from accidental clicks.

Thanks,
JG

JG,

There is a padlock button over on the bottom right hand corner you can use.
This prevents any action that might close an input.

Perfect! I totally missed that feature. I will be sure to do that next Sunday while I'm recording. Thanks.
