Is there a way to automate the Source Order relative to the other sources - instead of a set number up or down? The "position" number is tough to read - as switching between two filters, the source seems to move a random number of spots .

.....you're counting them from the bottom.....got it.
Excellent, thanks this solves the connected midi devices. It works perfectly. I would just like to know if ADSS can launch an alert to notify me if it detects that a midi device configured in the macros is not connected. thanks for your hard work

Ah, right - forgot about that part.
I will try to think of something.
And thanks for the confirmation that the other changes are working!
Was rather tricky to test with virtual devices :D
Hi,
I'm trying to use Websocket, but can't get it to work. If I use https://obs-raw.streamer.bot/#StartRecord it works but when I try to run the same script from OBS it doesn't work. Connection is ok but the script does not work.
Does anyone have a suggestion?

Are you trying to go from AdvSS to OBS Studio on same computer? why use websocket (that is like going out into backyard, across the county line, and back to change rooms in your house). The typical use cases are
1. communicating to OBS Studio on another computer
2. or from an application not otherwise integrated into OBS Studio (which the AdvSS plugin is)
there are some other relatively uncommon scenarios I can think of... but
Are you testing, but eventually want AdvSS on PC#1 to send WebSocket messages to OBS Studio (instance #2.. on same or different PC)?
Thanks for your answer Lawrence..Yes i want to control OBS 2 from OBS 1 on the same computer..i thought Websocket was the easiest way..do you have any other idea how i can do?
I found a solution.."Loop and preview"
I do this:
In 2 different macros of course, in different instances of OBS. I just put them together here to show both sides at once.
OBS Master is:
If they're on the same machine, then "localhost" works. Otherwise, you need the IP address of the other machine.
In the OBS Master instance:
The Server Port and Password need to match what you set in Adv. SS. And of course, it has to be Enabled with the top checkbox.
Only one OBS Websocket server is allowed per machine, and it only connects to the first instance that starts and has it enabled. So disable it for all the others so you don't get confused, and connect everything to that one. If you only have two instances, that's easy. If you have more than that, then the Master starts to become a sort of "hub" for the rest, forwarding messages that are not meant for it but have to be routed that way.
---
And instead of controlling OBS directly, I run everything through Adv. SS. So yes, I do have a macro in the Slave instance that watches for a Scene Switcher message and starts recording, and that's all it does. Likewise to stop recording. Much easier that way, even if it's slightly Rube Goldberg.

The message shown in your screenshots is missing an OpCode, the "requestId" and the data filed "d".
The adjusted message would look like this:
Code:
{
"d": {
"requestData" : {},
"requestId": "someUniqueIdHere",
"requestType" : "StartRecord"
},
"op": 6
}If both machines are using the advanced scene switcher plugin you can make your life easier by using the method outlined by @AaronD.

I tried to search the forum but unable to get an answer. I want to know if there is a way to do the following conditions in one macro.
(Condition A or Condition B) and (Condition C).
I can probably break up the conditions into multiple macros but wanted to see if there is a way to have the conditions above in just one.
TIA

I added the functionality to check which MIDI devices are connected in this build:
Draft MIDI device names check pull request run · WarmUpTill/SceneSwitcher@5e5e574
An automation tool for OBS Studio. Contribute to WarmUpTill/SceneSwitcher development by creating an account on GitHub.
github.com
You will have to be logged into GitHub to be able to download it. Let me know if that should be an issue!
It seems to work as expected as far as I can tell although I had trouble testing, if removal of devices works as intended.
I would appreciate if you could give this a try, whenever you find the time to, and report back if it also works with physical MIDI devices.
To display a warning if a device is not connected you could set up macros like this:
At the moment it is not planned, but I might look into it.
Just for clarification:
The intention is to add some sort of "Stream deck" condition which "does stuff" whenever a button on the stream deck is pressed.
Did I get that right?
Or what did you have in mind?
The conditions are checked from the top to the bottom.
So assuming you have the following conditions set up in a given macro ...
... they would be translated to
(((Scene) or File) and Audio).Hope that helps!

Thought having a streamdeck button available to run macros directly would be great to have . Would save on some hotkeys .I added the functionality to check which MIDI devices are connected in this build:

When using the Media > Seek to duration macro action, Advanced SS seems to be unable to be more precise than ~5s intervals?
For example, seeking to 60 seconds, 61, 62, 63, and 64 are all landing at 1:01 duration for me, but 56-59s landing at 0:55, and 55s starting the video at 0:52.
Is this intended/known behavior? I suspect this was introduced in OBS 30 if it wasn't present before - I am using 30.0.2 and 1.25.3 AdvSS.

Hello,
what is a good way to hide and show audio inside the mixer for different programs?
for example
I want to hide my audio track for my browser when there is no sound coming from it.
For now i tried the following:
If "audio" Output Volume is higher than -60 dB (so basically when any sound is played)
Change Visibility of "audio - Brower" if not hide it.
Sometimes this works, sometimes not and it works really slow. it takes like 5 seconds to show up and i dont know why.
Any Ideas how i can do this better?
If you ask why i want that.
I'm using OBS build in audio capture feature and i play different games and use some audio programs and i dont want my audio mixer filled with several audio tracks. Only the ones i need at the moment and don't want to deactivate them all the time manually
Thx

Hi!
Try clicking on the timer icon and setting the conditions you need with the response time you need.
And set the volume level a little higher (not -60 dB) so that it works in any case.

I don't really know why it would be slow.
Can you please share an OBS log file with verbose logging enabled?
Please also share the corresponding timestamp when the actions were performed slower than expected.
