Never worked at a TV studio so I am not "used" to the preview step. in VB you could click on the shot and it went directly to program out, in WC you can set it up to either show you the two windows (preview and program) and do the two clicks needed, or set it up for "Auto Live" which took out the preview window and allowed you to just click on the shots to switch. I understand that vMix can accomplish that via shortcuts (never used them either :-)
Doing a show and switching by one person makes it easier with less clicks, and less distraction for the eyes. The shots are big enough to see what is in them before clicking, and the program will probably use less resources when configured with one less video window (The Preview).
Makes sense ????

Hi

you can click the "cut" button for each input.

Using the shorcuts feature is also very convenient. For example, I switch all my cams with numpad keys. Just associate numpad1 (or any other key) for cam1 to "cut" to PGM and so on...

Amnon, to replicate the VB behavior, open the Settings page of the input you want to modify (gear icon); alter the mouse click action (General tab-top right pf window) from Preview to Cut. Simple as that.

@ Amnon

Welcome to the forum!
(It's about time you showed up here, lol)
You can easily accomplish "one click" to Program by adjusting the "Mouse Click Action" in the settings of each Input (Settings cog wheel -> General -> Mouse Click Action drop down menu at upper right, choose "Cut" or "Quick Play")
