Hi there, I have adapted the code from nicosman a bit and tested it from various platforms. The problem is with modern browsers, which do not allow mixed content. Mixed content means that insecure commands are sent from a secure website. Since the WEB API can only be accessed via HTTP and not via HTTPS, Firefox for example blocks the transfer with the error message "mixed-content" blocked. In the Firefox settings you can set the entry "security.mixed_content.block_active_content" to false with "about:config", then the program runs also from a secure web server. With Chrome, you can certainly set this setting as well. But if the HTML file is started locally, it works anyway, without mixed content error. With the setting mixed_content to false in Firefox, the custom script works also from my secure webserver on desktop Mac/PC's, but not on IOS devices. By the way, the error can be viewed in the browser console. You open the console in the browser with CTRL-SHIFT-J Probably the code is not very elegant, but it works :-) Mark the code, paste it into a empty notepad window and save it as control.html or anyothername.html. you can run it then in your browser. EDITED, 25.3.23 I have extended the script to 8 buttons and commented it out a bit better, the little dot in the upper left is a checkbox which allows to see the SendString. Code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<html>
<script>
// be aware that with Mix=0 the output switches,
// so it would be better to give the monitor control a separate mix output :-) e.g. Mix =1
// works also from forwarded public ip's -> TESTED
// declare vMix IP , if yout IP is a Public Adress, the port 8088 must be open or forwarded.
// settings in vMix must allow access from external,
// -vMix > settings > web controller > allow software.../ API / etc.
// Mark the code, paste it into a empty notepad window and save it as control.html
// or anyothername.html. you can run it then in your browser.
// the tiny little dot in the upper corner is a checkbox, which allows to see the sendString
window.IP = "192.168.10.102";
// declare buttontext, one per button
// if you want to take Program, add Program as Input and take the corresponded Number
window.btn1 = "K1";
window.btn2 = "K2";
window.btn3 = "K3";
window.btn4 = "K4";
window.btn5 = "K5";
window.btn6 = "K6";
window.btn7 = "K7";
window.btn8 = "PGM";
// declare vMix function, one per button, here Input 1-4 on MIX2
// Mix=0 is PGM/MIX1/Output
// Mix=1 is Mix2
// Mix=2 is Mix3 etc.
// You can also use a part of the buttons to switch another mix, e.g. just change Mix=1 to Mix=2
window.str1 = "Function=ActiveInput&Input=1&Mix=0";
window.str2 = "Function=ActiveInput&Input=2&Mix=0";
window.str3 = "Function=ActiveInput&Input=3&Mix=0";
window.str4 = "Function=ActiveInput&Input=4&Mix=0";
window.str5 = "Function=ActiveInput&Input=5&Mix=0";
window.str6 = "Function=ActiveInput&Input=6&Mix=0";
window.str7 = "Function=ActiveInput&Input=7&Mix=0";
window.str8 = "Function=ActiveInput&Input=8&Mix=0";
//---------no changes below here, only if you decide to add or delete buttons --------------
//here the first button is selected at the start of the page (autostart)
window.onload = function () {
document.getElementById("btn1").click(); };
