Making a Custom vMix Return Video Feed for Remote Guests
ฝัง

- With so much remote production, everyone is talking to their laptop or phone. It's up to the remote video producer to bring those people together into a program in a visually interesting way for the audience.
Additionally, we can also assist our remote guests by creating a special return feed so they can continue to see each other while also being able to see the program output the audience sees.
But why would we want to do this?
We want to do this because if these people were in the same room with each other, they could always see each other, no matter what the audience is looking at. By picking up on all kinds of non-verbal cues, they are able to non, smile, agree, disagree, and indicate when the have something else to say. By creating a special return video feed where they can ALWAYS see each other, this enables them to continue to use the non-verbal communication we have always used.
in this video, I show how I build this custom multi-view in vMix and how I route this return video to each of the guests on the panel discussion.
This is pretty slick. I am currently doing football games with remote commentators (typically in different locations, calling the game with one another). It is a basic level of production, with no comms or fancy rack units. Everything is done in the box with VMix, so I want to send them a "multiview" where each one gets:
1. Program (main box)
2. Commentator (small box)
3. Director (me) (small box)
Right now we're communicating via text, which works, but it is very annoying and unnecessary given the capabilities of VMix. And you're right with the non-verbal cues. They're off-air, except for audio. I'd love for us all to, at minimum, be able to see each other. I'm going to give this procedure a try and I'm sure the commentators will love this. Thanks very much for the walk-though.
A custom return is a killer feature. Takes a bit to set up but for something you use regularly, it's worth it, and tweakable as you go with more info. (score clocks, etc)
This was perfect I'm going to have to watch it three more times to implement it
Onec you get the hang of it, it makes sense. :)
Great explanation. I appreciate walking through it with you. This was exactly what I needed for remote producing sports games
Happy to help.
Thank so much for this I have self taught myself vmix.. I have been looking at your videos..
THanks!
Very helpful and informative. Thank you kindly.
Thank you so much! Just what I was looking for
You're welcome.
Nice Job! Thank you.
Happy to help.
Thank you. Great. Very helpful. I am starting with vMix and there is so much to learn...
Yes, there is. I'm still learning too.
EXTREMELY useful....
Thank you so much 👍🏼👍🏼
Nice Job...👍👍
Thanks Anthony! You da man.
Nice. Great video
Thanks a lot great video !!!
cool - thx
Can you tell me, how to send your input number 30 to a another monitor to preview. Thanks for your video anyway. GBU from Jakarta
When you select "Fullscreen" (top center) you can pick what goes out that Fullscreen output form vMix.
YOU are miracle thanks but could you make another tut on setting up the AUDIO PLEASE help us
Thanks for sharing this. Question: why might my guest be experiencing latency when they look at the output? However, everything is on que during the live or recording. They say being delayed is a bit distracting? It’s a video delay. Like they move their hand but it happens on screen a second or two later.
That is because your guest's video has to go through the internet to get to you, go through vMix, and then go back through the internet to get back to them.
It will always feel delayed from when they do it, and then see the return feed. I inform them to turn off their "selfie" video because then it gets distracting.
And I tell them that each of them may look delayed to themselves, but it's all coming in perfectly to me- and then usually the other callers confirm that everyone else looks good.
If you are seeing anything more than a half second, then it's being delayed in your computer and you shoudl check the processing time listed at the bottom of the screen in milliseconds.
@@IEBATechThoughts thanks for the swift reply. I will take note. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge Bro.
cool stuff, exactly what I was looking for. Do you have any idea how to go about recording Audio separately e.g. of 2 vMix Callers? Client wants to produce a Podcast. I want to be able to edit the recordings as Multitrack. Cheers and keep up the good work!
Turn on WAV audio recording.
Great help, is it possible to also show them upcoming slides ?
I could feed them the presenter view, sure. Whatever screen you wanted to capture and send back to them.
Thank you for the information, really appreciate, I have a doubt ,are you using the Zoom call or Vmix Call?
vMix call
Does vMix "automatically" mix-minus the audio back to vMix Call? Or is that something you accomplish via the BusB technique? Assuming yes, for vMix Call, can it also be done for a Zoom/Discord/Teams connection caller?
This only seems to work via Video Call input rather than a Zoom Via NDI Input.. Any Ideas?
Can you also make a video with send my audio to my guests with being on the program.. Thanks
That's how it works normally. No need to make a tutorial on that.
So guests can hear you and each other simultaneously? Do you have a video where you have that setup?
Of Course! Lots!

If on the show you have only one person talking right now, how all the guests can talk to with each other?
If you let them talk, you will hear them also on the show, so that we will hear all of the vmix call in the show, when only one person is on the show
Is there a way for each of the speakers to not hear themselves while they talk, but can hear everyone else?
The Mix Minus is built in.
I want do in zoom multiple guests? Can I do the same procedure.
Zoom is its own multiple guest system. It does not offer a way to export each guest separately. With their own individual audio channel.
Are there any delays in the guests' audio?
No worse of a delay than Zoom, etc.
How can this work with ZOOM or other meeting software?
With a bit of NDI and screen capture.
Dear Anthony. I really like you but your way of teaching is the worst. Very bad and poor.
Please make a change in the way or method of teaching.
You do not just set up everything behind and come up to start from the middle.
Please any topic you are to teach make sure you show how you build it from scratch to finish.
I hope you will or adopt this changes.
Your interface is more confusing because of so many inputs.
Please do it from scratch don't load your pre-build presets.
Do it step by step so that we can follow you.
Looking at your working it is confusing. Still your fan!
You clearly missed my 43 minute video explaining everything is much more detail.
This one is to answer a specific question that someone asked, so there was no need to show everything from scratch. If you want that, there are plenty of others doing vMix 101 classes.
