Is it possible to Render the external outputs back to the GPU, our GPU can handle 6 Displays, Id like to have 5,

1)Control
2)Preview
3)Output
4)Fullscreen (aux 1)
4)Fullscreen (aux 2)

Thank You

You can do it this way, bit of a hack job but works.

There will be a small delay, few frames to half a second.


Go into Output settings and set it to something like this.

Open up something like VLC and open a capture device (Ctrl + C)
Set it to the VMix video (for output) and Vmix external 2 for Aux2.

Should then see video, maybe a few frames to half a second behind though.

That what you were after? Maybe Martin needs to add more fullscreens to vMix IDK :P

Thank you very much. I stumbled upon this work around by accident a few hours ago. It would work if I were the only one running it however it's too many steps at startup to get it working every time. A lot of my users wouldn't be able to handle opening up 2 vlc's and setting the capture card.

If vmix had 4 full screens that would be perfect. Or at least a dedicated program out and preview out. Using the 2 fullscreen outs is awesome as auxiliaries. It's a shame to waste them on output and preview. Especially with the leaps and bounds that the GPU market has excelled in the last few months. 6 monitors on one card is no big deal anymore.

Pardon my newbieness (New to VMix, I've been playing with VMix but have yet to use it in production). When I was running VMix 12, I was sure I had all three of my monitors set to output... Main for the VMix window, Fullscreen as a Multiview and Fullscreen 2 as PROGRAM Out.

However, since VMix three, I can only set one full screen output.

I'd really like to get back to using my three local displays again. When I launch the settings, I can not see Fullscreen 1 and Fullscreen 2...

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance for your help. It's greatly appreciated.


[[EDIT]] I see now that FS2 is only available in the 4K version. I must have had it working when I was in demo. Ahh well...
I definitely appreciate that a 4K tier should have more features (like multi-corder)... however, I think maximum amount of displays should be an HD feature, as it's a bit of a necessity when you're operating a 3, 4 or more cam setup. :)
