I would like to request a 3rd fullscreen output. The current Nvidia cards support 4 displays, so please make them all available to vMix.

Now let's try a little bribe. ;)
If you would make this a pro-only feature, I would instantly reward you with a upgrade purchase.
If it would be made available within the 4K license, I would be even happier and reward you instantly with a extra 4K license purchase.

Also, if you made available a SECOND multiview (because 1 multiview only shows 14 inputs). I'll immediately upgrade to the pro or even a higher version.

It would allow me to remove a power supply and HDMI splitter from my setup.

Sorry guys, that's an old Feature request (Add more outputs). Not possible to get more than we have, as Martin wrote Feb 10:

Quote:
I know you mean well, but sadly the information you have provided is not a solution to the fullscreen limits.
Performance of the GPU processing itself is not the issue here, but rather being able to accurately time each frame for display.
Frame timing cant be done accurately at high GPU load, so even if it is says only 30% is in use, that doesn't mean you can triple the number if displays, it just doesn't work like that.
Also, the reduced GPU clock is due to power management in the NVIDIA driver and is normal, if the driver thinks it can render consistently at a lower clock it will and it is fine.


side note: It's always a good idea to search the Forum for similar request before posting.

If it's not possible because of technical limitations, then too bad.
Thank you for pointing out that post I did not see before. :)

That will add a lot of latency, so not usable for live screens.

Same thing, when the video needs to be frame-copied from the videocard to another output, the latency gets too high for live screens.
Still perfectly usable for recording, sending video to other locations, etc, but not for a live screen, when every frame extra is one too much.

Yes you can. Connect the monitors and set them as extended desktop in windows. Now fire up vMix and at the top there is the fullscreen button. Click on the downarrow on the right of it. A dropdown menu opens in which you can select what to show on each output. After is is set, click the fullscreen button and the two fullscreen outputs should work. (assuming you have vMix 4k or pro, the other licenses have one fullscreen output)

My gear is in the van right now and I have no system with 3 displays connected in my office, but when you look into the manual HERE,
you will see what it looks like and can also see how to set it up in settings under the display tab.
You will have to assign a display to each fullscreen output. After you have done that, it will look like it does at the top of the help page.
When you setup the fullscreen displays, also tick the hide cursor and on top options to active. That way you won't mouse into them or get any other program or notification in your vmix outputs.
