I’m wondering if vMix currently supports pan and zoom specifically for the replay input(mix output) without affecting the program output.

During baseball games, we often route the replay input to the umpires for game reviews. They frequently ask for zoom and pan capabilities to better analyze the plays. However, I haven’t found a way to achieve this within vMix yet. Most of the workarounds are very cumbersome and not smooth.

Ideally, we’d like to apply zoom and pan on the replay input (mix output), since this feed is typically displayed directly to the umpires via a walkie monitor—not on the main program output. This functionality would be incredibly valuable for improving the review process in live sports settings.

Thank you! I followed this exact setup, but I’m running into an issue—when I try to reset the input to its original state, the image disappears (it turns into a black box). I have to manually reset the box to bring the picture back.

Do you happen to have a script that fully resets the input window? Or are you using shortcuts to accomplish this? I’d really appreciate any tips on how to return the input to its default position after zooming and panning.

Also, when using the zoom function, does it only allow for a single preset zoom percentage, or can you click multiple times to zoom in further in stages?

Thanks again!

increase/decrease values using +=.1 -=1 for pan for example , similar process for zoom in or out

reset is just setting zoom and each pan to its base value combined into one shortcut key
