    I took a close look at their offerings last night. I am definitely going to give the 60 day free trial a shot. Can't beat their pricing and the features and usability looks great.

    Oscar.. Specs are found here: http://www.vmix.com.au/supported-hardware.aspx

    Andrew. I use both it and VidBlaster as you use VB and Wirecast. Each has strengths. For live sports games I find VB wins hands down but vMix has got great transitions, desktop capture, a web-based remote interface and a host of other cool features. 3rd party developers are working on things like an automated playout and scheduler tool.

    I find that the two tools work well together. I can send video from VB to vMix and/or vMix to VB taking advantage of the strengths of both.

    Out of curiosity, how well does the remote interface work? Is there much lag?

    Andrew, if you were not doing any sport games, would you still use both? We do talk shows, with multiple Skype guests/hosts screen captures on same PC. I find vb easy to recapture everybody when one drops off and screws up the display. Is it just as easy with vMix?

    From the looks of it, it can do everything (if not more) than vidblaster, and maybe just as easy :-) Unless something happens with vidblaster REAL quick (which I doubt) I will be switching to it. talked with Vance and he is under the same impression, which means a lot to me. The price is something to celebrate about, the vMix Forums are so friendly, and the developer......
    Thank you Martin !!!

    Hi Amnon,

    Thanks for your kind words. When you get a chance to try it out, let me know how it can be improved or what features are missing. vMix is updated on a regular basis.

    Regards,

    Martin
