I am interested what exact list of commands i need to use to start playlist after countdown - I have several playlist which i set up to play on some order under button for playlist (at to bottom of screen near Multicorder)

1. How can i set up that some trigger do that after countdown
2. How to “press button” for playlists under triggers

I saw that i can start some specific playlist under triggers but what to do when i want that button at the bottom to be press and i can’t find it under option for triggers – I set up several playlist and time them must be laying and because of that i must press that button and not play some specific playlist – I hope i explain well my dilemma

I have try topics regarding this but didn’t find anything with explanations how to done those under first and second question – I saw that people do use countdown to trigger something but i didn’t see how that do that and another one is how to “press” that playlist button” at the bottom

Any suggestions how to solve this possibly simple problem will be appreciated – Please when writing write every step (step by step) and used commands which will allow everybody to replicate that suggestion – Thanks in advance!

@ SpelingMistakes

Not sure I understand your specific requirements, but a list of "Shortcuts" Functions can be found here:

http://www.vmix.com/help...utFunctionReference.html

In terms of "Triggers" after a countdown, I know there has been a request for that, but I'm not sure if it has been implemented as of yet.
(I am confused by your reference to "several Playlist", AFAIK, you can have multiple "Lists" but only 1 "Playlist", either way, if you can clarify exactly what it is you want to do, I am sure there is a way to "Automate" with "Triggers" and/or "Shortcuts")

Regarding commands i didn’t mean on shortcuts but on trigger commands and how to push that button

@ SpelingMistakes

If I understand you correctly, I would use the Trigger Function "StartPlaylist", however, as stated, I don't think the "end of countdown" trigger has been implemented yet.
You could use a video countdown as a workaround and then set up the "Trigger":
-> ONCompletion -> StartPlaylist

@ SpelingMistakes

I still do not understand what you want...
The "StartPlaylist" function will 'push' the "Playlist" button automatically (if set-up properly).
What I don't understand is: what precedes the starting of the "Playlist"?
A countdown from an XAML Timer or a countdown video?
A video will work (automatically), a Timer will not (yet).

First
I don’t see anywhere option when countdown stop start playlist which means it is not implemented yet

Second
I don’t have any “specific countdown” (in minutes) because everything depends from specific time – I have set up countdown too some specific time few minutes before i start broadcasting because i stream several times per day which mean that situation is always different and i can’t use video for counting to some specific time

Obviously i can’t use countdown to some specific time to automate playing playlist which is my main intention
