Variables for File Name and Time Remaining of Clip #19

Open petertapmedia opened 1 year ago

Hi there, i'm using my StreamDecks to control multiple instances such as two ATEMs, mixeffect etc. Right now i'm using CasparCG to play out video, lower thirds with alpha channel trough a Ultrastudio HD Mini. Setting up CasparCG in Companion seems to be the most time consuming part of a daily livestreaming routine (and complicated for my not so experienced colleagues 😉, so i'm looking for some help, since i'm not a coder nor do i have any experience in Java etc. 1) Reading video and audio filenames over variables or something else using e.g. UIDs, so the name of the file shows up on my button, when UID is set (the example here would be having 30 videos on 30 Buttons, right now i have to manually configure them each, with setting the button on PLAY to the file and changing the Buttons name. Just to know what the file behind the UID is named) 2) Getting feedback with time remaining of a clip to a button or maybe the PLAYbutton itself (so showing remaining time and maybe a variable to turn the button red or something when the clip hits the last couple of seconds) I would much appreciate help from some experienced users 🙂 Thanks everyone

Sorry if i posted this on the wrong page (issues) since i'm not so familiar with github....
