First of all thank you for this really nice software!
It does its job very well and i also found another purpose for it.
My girlfriend does a lot of homeoffice recently a mainly videoconferences.
So is use oversight to send httprequests with the camera status to an battery powered esp8622 attached to a neopixel to have an "onair" light. it works quite well. (should prevent me from entering our office/bedroom half naked again while a conference is taking place and while my girlfriend is at the toilet and is unable to warn me about the camera beeing on )
Unfortunately the microphone detection doesn’t work so well. (i only get a status when a program is accessing the mic.
not when it mutes/unmutes)
The Computer has an internal mic and an external. So with an applescript i put the input volume to 0 (works only for one mic...either internal or external) and back to mute and unmute ans also send the httprequest for the "mic-light"
before we used mutekey where you can mute and unmute all microphones at once.....(feels somehow better to have the microphones muted all the time systemwide)
Now to my request: is it possible to add a detection for the status change (inputlevel =0 or inputlevel >0) of all the input devices? It would make a perfect "homeoffice, relationshipsaving helper app" and i think it is also in the spirit of the software to detect those changes.
