Description: MixCast is the best way to create, share and broadcast mixed reality content to any audience, with almost any equipment, VR app, or filming environment. Getting started is easy; MixCast Studio will guide you through each of the three setup steps (Camera Selection, Background Removal, and Camera Alignment) so that you can start creating MR content within minutes. With the all-new WildKey feature, you can now remove your background with or without a green screen. Whether you’re in a green screen studio, a busy conference booth, or your own living room, MixCast has a background removal option that fits your setup. As of 2.0, we now also offer expanded capabilities with depth cameras! See our website for a complete list of compatible hardware.
Review: MixCast is supposed to be an easier way for people to share mixed reality content to your YouTube fans or other video use. The problem is no matter what I did I just couldn’t get the software to work with the Rift or the Vive. Add to this all the videos online are for an older version! All I can say is that it is a good job that it is free otherwise I would have been very annoyed and probably got a refund. So it is free, why not give it a go if you need mixed reality casting yourself. Then, if you get it to work let me know in the comments below.
