Hi,

I am trying to Cut in Mix 2 to a specific Input via OnTransitionIn and Out triggers, but unfortunately it doesn't work.

It works with OnOverlayIn and Out, but not with the transition.

Am I doing something wrong or does anyone know a workaround for this?

I had been down this road . . . ;-)

From https://www.vmix.com/help23/Triggers.html :

"Note that in order to prevent loops, transition effects have no effect for OnTransitionIn or OnTransitionOut."

Workaround might be to start a script OnTransitionIn, that executes the Cut function.

Sounds reasonable, but it shouldn't be a problem if we use another mix and not the main mix, am I right?

So, maybe there is a chance for Martin to enable it for other mixes.

Could you please show me how such a script would look like?

This would be:

Code:
Function=Cut&Mix=1&Input=3


Mix parameter: 0 is the regular Mix, 1 is Mix2, ...
Input parameter: Name or number of the input to Cut, here Input no. 3

Does that work for you?

And, as always, here the disclaimer for the main scripting references to look for, if you want to learn some things:
- doggy's Scripting for Dummies post https://forums.vmix.com/...86-Scripting-for-Dummies (Great for learning syntax and examples)
- vMix's Function Reference https://www.vmix.com/hel...utFunctionReference.html (Great for finding what functions are out there)
- Richard's Script Builder App https://forums.vmix.com/...r-App---Updated-02-24-20 (Great for creating basic scripts)

Ohhh! Great! Know I understand...it's really that easy...

I was looking into the scripting stuff, but couldn't figure it out, because I was thinking the wrong way.

Thank you very much! Everything works just fine now.
