DataSource actions don't work with default CSV data source #194

Closed BryanCrotaz closed 3 months ago

BryanCrotaz commented 1 year ago

Default CSV data source in VMix is called "Excel/CSV". None of the datasource actions work unless you rename it. My assumption is that the forward slash breaks the code.

So: Excel/CSV,Sheet1,1 doesn't work MyData,Sheet1,1 does work

Currently if you choose to use special characters in data source names you have to escape it yourself. To handle that on Companions side now would be a breaking change for everyone that has a setup using special characters where they've already escaped it.

We can consider changing this behaviour, but this would be a breaking change so not something for the near future.

Can you check if you're still having issue with this on the latest vMix? I'm going over old bug reports and I can't replicate this at all, as Excel/CSV,Sheet1,1 works fine for me, so it may be vMix finally fixed the issue on their side and may not need a workaround in Companion to encode it.

Closing as I've had no further reports of issues. If it still shows up in recent versions of vMix let me know and I'll reopen.
