Does vMix support Windows Server?

The Windows Server line of operating systems (2008, 2012 etc) are not supported by vMix.

vMix makes use of many of the multimedia features of Windows 7/8 which are not installed by default on Windows Server.
It may be possible to get vMix working by trying the following:

1. Make sure a DirectX 10 or higher capable graphics card is installed and the drivers are up to date.
2. Enable the "Desktop Experience" feature.

Note that we are unable to provide support for setting up or configuring Windows Server for use with vMix.
