Getting Started
A screenshot of the vMix user interface below.
This main window is where all the video mixing takes place.
If you have used traditional video switchers before, the main window might look familiar.
There are four main elements:
1. Output Window
(Top-Right hand corner with the Green Title Bar)
This is the Live or Program video output window. This output is also displayed in a Fullscreen window that
defaults to the computer's secondary display.
This output is also what is used when setting up a recording.
2. Preview Window
(Top-Left hand corner with the Orange Title Bar)
Just like a traditional video mixer, an input you wish to display should be placed in this preview window first.
The
Preview Window swaps with the Output Window whenever you select the Cut, Fade or Transition
buttons, located along the center.
