Hi vMix Team,

I love using vMix for streaming, but I’ve run into a major limitation that affects performance, especially when running multiple browser sources for alerts, chats, and overlays.

Currently, there is no way to pause or unload browser inputs when they are not visible or not in use (unless I'm missing something). Unlike camera or video inputs that can be paused to save CPU, browser sources keep running full speed all the time, even when off-screen. This leads to high CPU usage and makes it hard to run more than a dozen browser sources without overload, as a streamer this can be headache.

I’d like to request a feature that allows browser sources to automatically pause or unload when not visible or when manually toggled. This would help streamers greatly reduce CPU load, improve performance, and streamline complex setups.

Thank you for your hard work and consideration!

Best regards,
