Closed mishcazzulani closed 3 years ago

mishcazzulani commented 5 years ago

hello i'm trying to build a simple webpage that when opened connects to obs-websocket and starts recording

i'm using obs 23.1.0 obs-websocket 4.6.1 and obs-websocket-js 3.1.0

here is my code:

<!DOCTYPE` html>
<html>
  <head>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="obs-websocket.js"></script>
  </head>
  <body>
     <script>
        const obs = new OBSWebSocket();
              obs.connect({ address: '10.0.0.70:4444' });
               obs.StartRecording();
    </script>
  </body>
</html>

it connects but doesn't start recording

obs.connect() returns a promise, as it does not happen straight away, so you need to chain a .then() on the end to know when it has connected. Changing your code to obs.connect({ address: '10.0.0.70:4444' }).then(() => obs.StartRecording()) should make it start recording.
