Hey! Great Video series! I found it very helpful. I am running a little home studio for remote live streaming of Esports events and have run into some issues with vmix and the amount of vmix calls I can handle. Between the two additional PCs that run the spectator game and that are connected to the production PC by an ElGato4k video capture card and NDI Vmix app, plus the data base that controls the Graphics in real time, I often run into CPU or GPU overload. Is there any recomendations for having multiple remote participants in a single production? Thanks in advance guys, I am looking foward to watch your next videos!
