I try to make a vmixcontroller in livecode and I open a socket connection with localhost:8088 What is the syntax of the api when I have a connection?
So I've been messin around a little bit and i can connect to various servers (among them some ftp and the vidblaster api) but I cant seem to work vmix out. If someone could give me a tip on the way would be great.

Yes I have started the webserver in vmix and i have read about the api. Sending the commands thru the webbrowser works but sending via "write to socket " gets no response.

You'd have to mimic the entire http protocol - the vMix command would follow the 'GET' verb, and you'd likely need at least some headers as well. if you have an API tailored to http available (i.e. above 'raw sockets') that'd be a much easier way to go.

@tubbis_2 were you able to get connection to vMix using livecode? I am looking to make a controller too using livecode but haven't been able to connect to it via socket connection.

I recently found out what to do in order to send commands to the vmixwebserver so now I'm making an external control in livecode that actually works almost flawlessly. Just have to learn how to connect to a database of some kind. Being not a programmer I'm quite impressed of what one can do in livecode.

Just have to learn how to connect to a database of some kind. Being not a programmer I'm quite impressed of what one can do in livecode. I have code for Javascript and HTML if that helps. See the last post on this thread. http://forums.vmix.com/d....aspx?g=posts&t=5281Simple, JQuery, Javascript plus HTML. Works on tablets/phones very well or computers. Great starting point to build your own custom web controls to do something special. Not that anything is wrong with the VMix built in one. My use case was to "restrict" that and make only specific functions available to the user. Enjoy!
