Health Stats Overview

pMix.studio’s Health Stats panel provides real-time monitoring of your production’s performance — frame rates, network throughput, device health, and per-source diagnostics.

Opening Health Stats

Tap the Health Stats button (or the performance indicator in the status bar) to open the monitoring panel.

What’s monitored

Per-source stats

For each connected source, you can see:

Frame rate — Incoming frames per second
Packet loss — Displayed as a ratio (e.g., “3/5000 (0.1%)”)
Bitrate — Incoming data rate
Latency — End-to-end delay

Device stats (iPad)

CPU usage — Current processor load
Thermal state — Nominal, fair, serious, or critical
Memory usage — RAM utilization

iPhone camera stats

For connected iPhone cameras, additional telemetry:

Battery level and charging state
Thermal state
Storage available on the iPhone
Performance — Target FPS, input FPS, processing FPS, drop percentage, SRT FPS, bitrate

A camera also reports its own capture health to the mixer tile, so a camera that has stopped capturing — an interrupted capture session, a camera another app has taken — shows as a camera fault rather than as a silent black slot. A camera sharing its screen rather than filming says so.

Output stats

Stream health — Connection quality indicator (green/yellow/red)
Bitrate — Actual output bitrate vs configured
Duration — How long you’ve been streaming/recording
Recording health — if the recording stops accepting frames, the fault is reported along with how much footage actually landed, rather than a duration that keeps counting

Status bar indicators

The status bar at the top of the screen shows summary health information:

Green — All systems healthy
Yellow — Minor issues (e.g., occasional frame drops)
Red — Critical issues requiring attention

Tips

Check before going live — Open Health Stats during your pre-show setup to catch problems early
Monitor packet loss — Any packet loss above 0.1% on iPhone cameras indicates a network issue
Watch thermal state — If the iPad or iPhone reaches “serious” thermal state, performance may be throttled
Frame rate drops — If incoming frame rate is lower than expected, check the source device and network
