In case someone wants to work on it:
In the recent version of SongBeamer (5.16c), there is beta support for an OSC remote port. Here is the documentation and a test application: https://download.songbeamer.de/SongBeamer-OSC.zip
The OSC command software needs to be run from a seperate PC (i.e. Companion & Songbeamer cannot run on the same PC). OSC Support needs to be enabled by running the Songbeamer Macro that is also in the ZIP file.

For everybody who cannot wait to get a plugin. You can use the generic OSC Companion plugin to get a connection working, but you need to enter every OSC command manually.
In the documentation, shared by @benjaminpick you can see all available commands.
Against the information from the Sonbeamer forum I got a working connection running Songbeamer AND Companion on the same PC.
I've created demo page for the generic osc plugin which feautres basic functionality required for regular presentations
What i'm missing so far - which might require a separate module:
Feel free to download ... (link available until end of 2022) Link
FYI we bought a StreamDeck XL and i'm starting to experiment on a clone of the generic OSC module. It will take some time but i'm hoping to start with basic functionality and eventually extend to incooperating feedback as well
FYI I've started building the module. So far there is no official repository and it includes sending the regular commands only. Feedback is likely next ...

Implemented with https://github.com/bitfocus/companion-module-songbeamer-osc @josephdadams - can you or anybody else close this issue - or do you want to wait until it's included in a release?
Does somebody know the reason, this module is not implemented yet?

Thank you very much @bensteUEM for adding this awesome functionality.
However, how do I get this module to run? I tried with different companion versions (including the current 3.1.2, 3.0.0, and 2.4.2), alls 3.x.x behave the same for me:
If I place it in the bundled_modules
folder or include it via the developer modules path
folder I find the module in the add connections
tab.
However, when i try to start it I only get this message with a never ending loading animation:
Waiting for connection to start...
It would be very nice, if you could add some kind of setup manual.
Hi @LukasWehrstein,
I found out how to install it.
Git clone
the repository under Companion/resources/bundled-modules (git clone https://github.com/bitfocus/companion-module-songbeamer-osc.git
)cd companion-module-songbeamer-osc
npm install
in that companion-module-songbeamer-osc folderIssue for Waiting for connection to start...
were missing dependencies..

Currently the remote control of songbeamer is a bit tricky and I am doing it with AutoHotKey with internal: Run shell path (local) commands but hopefully in the new version it should be possible to interface with the app better over the network.
