vMix is a great tool for broadcasting and we support it in multiple different ways via our integrations, XML data, and HTML Overlays, here are some steps to show how to do both integrations.
HTML INTEGRATION
-
Once the client has an overlay created in Sportzsuite that he likes, it will give them a link at the top of the stage that he will need to copy, it will look as follows
2. Have the user then go to the add inputs button in the bottom left corner of vMix.
3. Once in the inputs menu, have them select Web Browser and then copy the link provided from Sportzsuite into the URL field at the top as follows.
4. Now have them hit okay and they have their live-updating overlay directly into vMix.
XML INTEGRATION (Video tutorial here Adding Real-Time Scoreboard Data to vMix via XML )
-
For the XML integration, we need to set up the end user with the LiveXML software which can be found here.
-
Have the user connect to the bot they want to pull data from into LiveXML, once that is done confirm they can read their data and proceed to the next step
-
Have the user click output at the top and select (On (XML FILE ONLY)), and then go to File-Live File Type and select XML and then go to File-Live File Path and select a destination they will remember.
Once they have a Live File Path selected, they should see this box file with the path
4. Once everything is set up on LiveXML they will then open vMix select the 3-line icon in the bottom right next to overlays and then select data sources manager.
5.Once in the Data Sources Manager, they will click the + sign in the top left and select XML
6.Have them hit browse and find the file they saved with the Live File Path option earlier and then have them type “info” into the XPath, once that's done it should look like this and its good to go.
