  • In this video, we’ll be using shortcuts to control layers in our vMix production. We’ll use a variety of control devices to do things like turn layers on and off and switch layer contents from one Input to another.

    Good tutorial that guides to the point! Generally I prefer written tutorials but vMix uses videos in the right way.

    Heath, your explanation is very on point and also very much in tone with Tim's tutorials. I love it. Not entirely unrelated: I like your T-Shirt.

  • @digitalcollaborationtools3371

    The one thing that was missing was a way to turn the PIPs off. I solved this by creating a blank input and replacing the PIP with the blank input and that made it invisible. It also had the effect of pausing any videos that played within the PIP.
    In addition, I converted Input 1 in the 9-up scene to be full-screen. I then panned input 2 (top center) to be top left. Now I can not only toggle various PIPs, but I can also dynamically change the main scene as well - One scene to rule them all! Thanks for this.

    This is great... Is there a way to attach a transition to a layerOn and Off to make them appear smoother?

  • @SeanTolan_illuminated_imaging

    This is AWESOME. I just wish there was a way to fade the layers in instead of just having them hard cut

  • @SethLT

    Thank you for this video. I have a question...is there a shortcut that would allow me to swap 2 sources? IE: I have a 2 box and I want the left and right sources to swap, regardless of what source I have selected. I'm not seeing anything that may let me do that. Thank you!

  • @altoms1803
    @altoms1803 Před 2 lety

    Following each step as literally as possible, using Streamdeck as control device. Cannot get layers to trigger at all, let alone as easily as this video shows. Any ideas?

  • @daltonrandall4348
    @daltonrandall4348 Před 2 lety

    I don't get why pressing "logo" at 11:54 doesn't instantly change the input on the screen. You have defined the input on the screen to be dynamic1, and pressing "logo" changes the value of dynamic1, so the change should be instantaneous.

  • @mosesihachi3176

    Is there a way for resizing a layer box, like your bees horizontal rectangle to vertical horizontal or from horizontal layer size to square? of course without cropping?

    is it possible to move layers using transitions?

  • @krnordli
    @krnordli Před rokem

    Just something unrelated I thought about while watching this. Why is both "Recording" and "MultiCorder" turned on at the same time. Cant multicorder record all the channels? Is it to record at different quality?

  • @gotscottgreen
    @gotscottgreen Před 2 lety

    Can you have them fade in or merge instead of just cut?

    • @vMixhd
      @vMixhd  Před 2 lety

      Unfortunately not, it's not really designed for that. Merge is usually used for moving or transitioning content and not just switching out layers. You could use the MIX option to transition between overlayed content. www.vmix.com/help24/index.htm?Mix.html

    Please note it is a 'Comma' between Index and Input NOT a 'Period'!

    Having watched the whole video I now see why Tim didn’t do it. It’s far too complicated for him to bother. So they got someone professional in instead.

    A good day. With layers, everything is clear and everything works, but! as soon as I assign setlayer, nothing works.
    constantly gives an error
    If I understood correctly, the index 1,2,3,4, etc. is the original layer on which the action takes place, and the second is the layer that I want to see when replacing the action. But again a mistake, what is the mistake? KeyDown.ES_BadFormat
