Hi everbody,

I have a Txt-File that includes several Information coming from an external Device.

Example:

Zeit1=05:06:30
Zeit2=03:25:32
Zeit3=02:25:30
etc.


Is there a posiblity to use that TXT-File within GT, so that i can use the different values as separate Variables.
Or is it possible to cut for example the first five letters, use the next 8 charcters und ignore the rest of the file?

best regards
Thomas

to cut out you 5 letters put the data in a hidden textbox in your title (add it in the title) , and let a script read the content , strip that part and put the result in the displaying textbox

Thanx a lot.

In the last 2 months I couldn't take care of the problem, but with your tip I found the solution.
Thanks for all of your contributions here in the forum, I've learned a lot.

Your are so kind.
Just today I was watching videos of VMix scripting.

Thanks again
