Liveset in a liveset

[n9103h]

I am losing the little battle but hope to win the war. Two camera shoot, one green screen, host and guest.

Put the host and guest side by side on the green screen, I am able to get any of the sets to work, but I can not swap the green screen with a live set in the effects window. AM I making any sense>? It shows the guest and the green screen. I am trying to make it look like a live remote.

Is it possible to run a live set in a live set, so to say.

Any and all comments welcomed.

For a double-box effect to apply LiveMatte to both sources requires them to be specially prepared.

Some of the add-on graphics packs LiveSets are like this, and have matching backgrounds embedded behind the pip windows (perhaps a user could confirm). Check out, for example, number 13 in the "Action Center 1 Person " set in the gallery on this page:

As Steve has said, this needs a custom LiveSet but the answer is yes this can be done.

If you design your own LiveSets, you would split the video input plane in the LiveSet and composite over your virtual set images.

FYI: I make custom LiveSets :)

I finally found the PDF for livesets in the Aura folder. I am going thru that now, seems pretty straight forward. I will post what I build and welcome your suggestions. I can imagine the sky is the limit, i have seven cameras, so I will one day see if I can build an 8 set liveset. thanks for all your assistance, it is appreciated, sometimes just knowing where to start is a huge help.
