when a input becomes "Preview" it shall trigger another event (e.g. Tally green on a non NDI camera via CGI-Script via browswer reload).

thanks

Just open http://127.0.0.1:8088/api/ and check the preview section. You will get the input number that is on preview. To set it use http://127.0.0.1:8088/api/?function=previewinput&input=1

Hi Mavik, thanks for your help but either i did not understand the answer or maybe i did not pose the question right.

I want to trigger an event when an input becomes preview. For example: if input1 goes into preview it shall reload browser input2 with an api call to turn on the green LED on my Panasonic PTZ-cam.
How can i achieve this?
Within VMIX there are only triggers for "on transition in" etc. but not for "becomes preview".

What Mavik is saying is one can set an input into preview with http://127.0.0.1:8088/api/?function=previewinput&input=1 ( or using a shortcut) and combine that with other actions (simulating a trigger)

Reading the API XML one can check which input is in preview. A script can do that and act upon this for giving more commands
