Local Desktop Capture

Adding Local Desktops

From the NDI / Desktop Capture tab, a tab called

Local Desktop Capture

can be selected to capture the

screen or window from the same computer.
This enables high performance full frame rate capture of any active window, including windows hidden behind
vMix or running on a separate display.

This is great for capturing programs like Skype.

Windows 7 Note: "Aero" theme must be enabled in order to capture individual windows.
