What kind of data can be exported?
This feature allows you to save preset state only (playlist settings, item order and type, video source layouts like crop, zoom, opacity, corner radius settings, etc). ManyCam will not save actual files, effects, or other video sources on your computer. When exporting a saved preset or a collection of presets, it is advised to keep the files that were being used at the time of export (images, videos, effects, presentations, PDFs, etc) available locally in the same locations on your computer. Also, make sure that the same devices that were being used at the time of export (webcams, audio inputs, etc) are connected and available to ensure that ManyCam can access them freely and re-connect during import. If any video source is missing or unavailable, ManyCam will prompt you to replace it with another video source of the same kind.
Importing a preset collection will overwrite your current preset collection. Make sure to save your current project before importing a new one.

When exporting a preset, ManyCam saves the preset’s state into a single file (*.mcbox).
In ManyCam, navigate to the Presets tab and right-click on the preset you’d like to export, then select Export Preset.
You will then be prompted to save a preset state as a file on your device.
How to import a preset from a file
