Hey, the last weeks i Looked for a Recording automation but im not realy good in scripting and found not the solution there i looked for. Maybe you could help me?

Step 1 Check a Input with 2 Text cherakters. Name.Text
Step 2 Write this Characters down in my Recorder Pathfile with a Seperator between thes Names
Step 3 Start the Recording
Step 4 if the datasource of the Character from Step 1 Changed and the Recording is Stoped Start by Step1

Is this Possible?

Thanks for the Help

Regards Philipp

Step 1 Check a Input with 2 Text cherakters. Name.Text


The name of an input or retrieve from a title for example ?
Yes is possible, there are examples to adapt from in this thread !

one can not put Write this Characters down in my Recorder Pathfile from a script, will have to rename the recording after the recording stops

Quote:

Step 3 Start the Recording


one can start a recording. Check the shortcut reference list , thise are the same function usable within a script

Quote:

Step 4 if the datasource of the Character from Step 1 Changed and the Recording is Stoped Start by Step1


Yup can do that too, check like step 1 and compare if there is a difference to initiate a next step ( or not)

Yes but need to change the process logic/order a bit

How did you look and where ? if one googles "vmix renaming recordings" the result is multiple mentions to vMix forum post for this

Is why this thread was posted with lots of examples (amongst other posts) to try out in order to learn scripting . same for using shortcuts , try and learn to understand pls

There are examples here that retrieve exactly the information one could need for use in a script

again no , can NOT name the recording file with a function
so same answer as before "will have to rename the recorded file AFTER the recording stops"

Of course LOL. A custom script ;-)


the logic you are looking for:

stop the recording (or let the script check if recording has actually stopped before proceeding)
read the data needed (name from within a title)
search for the last recorded file ( example in the knowledge base)
rename or copy that found file named with the data retrieved before
Step 4 can be added (check change of name within the title) for extra functionality starting the renaming process
for extra safety build in a process to check if renamed file allready exists to add a number to the name for example to avoid erasing the previous exsisitng recording with the same name
