Add feedback for output source #218

Open BryanCrotaz opened 1 year ago

BryanCrotaz commented 1 year ago

We can set output source with an action, so we should have a matching feedback to allow setting the button colour

e.g. button 1 sets output source to input 1 and lights it red if input 1 is the current output source button 2 sets output source to input 2 and lights it red if input 2 is the current output source

The vMix API does not include Output state, and without vMix providing that data in their API we can't have variables or feedback to indicate what the output source is.

Ok can we leave this as a backlog item and I'll log a feature request with VMix.

thedist commented 1 year ago

Sure. All of the issues that are marked with Enhancement and Blocked Externally I do plan to come back to if the vMix developers implement the changes needed on their side for it to be possible.

It may be worth searching their feature request forum and seeing if it already exists and giving it a +1 if it does, although with some feature requests for example a request for a Replay Events data API being over 7 years I unfortunately don't have much hope.
