Integrating QuickLink StudioCall callers into vMix

Using the Ingest URL feature it is very easy to integrate QuickLink StudioCall callers into your vMix productions. This is a great way to add high-quality remote guests into your vMix production along with discrete audio.

Within the QuickLink StudioManager, hover over the link_icon.png icon below the associated seat that you are using and would like to add into vMix. Click Copy Ingest URL and a message should pop up to confirm that you have copied the link successfully.

Your QuickLink StudioCall caller will now be available in vMix as an input. Note: If there is no caller in the added seat, a placeholder will appear until you place a remote guest into the seat.

Once added you can now resize, crop, and re-position your caller into your vMix production. You can also repeat the above steps to add multiple QuickLink StudioCall callers as different inputs.

Copy the guest link. 

Next, open an incognito window in your web browser and paste the guest invite link into it. 

Change your camera device to vMix Video. Your video will appear flipped, however this is intentional and will be correct when in call.

Once completed, mute your microphone from the bottom control bar. If you require audio back to your guests, you can set up a Virtual Cable.

Within the QuickLink StudioManager you will now see your created device within the device list on the left-hand side. Drag this device into the Program Return space of the Conference room. You will see a preview of your program return.
