So I have been trying to set up a project in vMix and I think I will need to use a script as the core features don't quite cut it... basically I want 2 on screen avatars to change either by changing visible layers or overlays based on audio input to trigger a quick display of two states.

Basic idea is this...

Avatar is on screen showing a short looped animation.

If vmix is receiving audio from Mic 1 play a short animation of mouth opening 3-5 frame image sequence or just as an overlay and hold on last frame. (This would just appear overtop the looped animation)

When the Audio falls below a threshold play the mouth close animation (Different 3-5 frame animation) and switch back to the first loop.

Basically this would allow a basic talking avatar effect so when someone is talking the avatars mouth is open and when they are not talking it reverts back to a looped clip.

The structure I dont think is too hard but I'm not sure how I would get a script to listen for the audio levels event.Example (If Audio from mic one hits -12 DB Show this layer if it falls back below -25 db play clip then switch to default layer.

I played with the OnAudio -12db triggers that are in the program but the control to have it trigger a below threshold even seems to be outside of that capability.

Is anyone familiar with the script API enough to shed some light on this issue?

Alert threshold sensitivity is a high-level concept that controls the amount of deviation from metric behavior required to trigger an alert.
