I have started looking at node-red as a way to make custom web interfaces to vMix

I have shared the initial flow i have created. However i need to work out how to use the change node to select based on what my global.active is set to.

If you know Java Script i think you will enjoy node-red!

So I want a node that gives me an output on the object that is the currently active input - ideas on a postcard please!

Thanks


Here is the flow:
