I've been playing around with the Triggers and I want to start an intro Video and then have a Trigger start the Live Facebook stream after that intro video finishes.. Is this even possible? If I missed this discussion already,I apologize.

That did work,but I think I was looking at what I wanted to do all wrong. For the Intro Video to be displayed in the Stream and then the Live FB stream,I would have to the Intro as part of the FB stream. The way it is now, the intro video plays,but wouldn't be seen in the stream because the trigger hasn't started the stream,hope that makes sense. Not sure about getting this to work?

Guess I could start the FB stream and bring in the Intro video,but then that would defeat the purpose of a trigger.

In theory the OnTransitionIn trigger. In practice it will take some time to actually have the stream on Facebook. It might be better to output a still image, start the stream, make sure it is running on Facebook, then start your intro.
