How to Add Live Captions to vMix

vMix is the professional streaming and production software of choice for broadcast-quality live events, esports productions, and corporate streams. Like OBS, vMix supports browser inputs — and that's exactly what StreamTranslate uses to deliver live AI captions to your vMix production.

Adding StreamTranslate captions to vMix takes minutes. In your vMix setup, add a new Web Browser input, paste your StreamTranslate browser source URL, and configure the dimensions to match your overlay layout. The live captions render inside vMix as a browser input layer that you can composite over your video feed, include in output mixes, or apply to specific NDI outputs.

For live events and esports productions where professional captioning is required, StreamTranslate delivers CART-quality accuracy at a fraction of CART pricing. our industry-leading speech AI handles fast-paced commentary, multiple speaker environments, and gaming-specific vocabulary that legacy broadcast captioning solutions struggle with.

StreamTranslate for Esports and Live Events in vMix

Esports productions running in vMix face unique captioning challenges: rapid-fire commentary, game-specific terminology, crowd noise in mixed audio feeds, and the need for real-time delivery without caption delay that breaks broadcast flow. StreamTranslate's our industry-leading speech AI engine is trained on gaming and esports content, making it the most accurate real-time captioning solution for esports productions.

For corporate and educational events running in vMix, StreamTranslate provides ADA-compliant captioning that keeps your event accessible to deaf and hard-of-hearing attendees. The 125-language translation feature means international virtual events can provide native-language captions to every attendee simultaneously — a feature that would cost thousands per event with human interpreters.

vMix Captioning vs Third-Party Caption Services

Third-party CART captioning services for live events charge $150-$300 per hour and require advance booking. StreamTranslate runs on-demand, 24/7, at a flat monthly rate — which makes it accessible for regular streamers, frequent event hosts, and production teams with daily captioning needs. For esports organizations streaming multiple events per week, the cost savings are significant.

Setup takes minutes rather than the coordination overhead of booking a CART service. And because StreamTranslate runs entirely in the cloud, there are no hardware requirements, no laptop to coordinate, and no tech check before every event. Visit our setup guide or compare pricing plans.
