"+1" how?
- Incrementing filename?
- Append to existing content?
- Replace existing content?
- Read existing content, convert to a number, add 1, and replace with the new number as text?
- Something else?
- Thread starter Warmuptill
- Start date
Thank you for the reply!
I guess the 4th option.
Like lets say the content of the txt-file = 3 it replaces it by 4...
What if there's more than just a number in it? Like maybe you gave it your shopping list by mistake, instead of a scorecard?
- Take the first or last number?
- Replace the entire contents with just the result?
- Replace only the found number with its result?
- Increment all found numbers in-place? ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bcGA4alhPas )
- Just fail?
- What should that failure do?
Well, in my case the file would only contain just one number.... if the file is empty it should just write 1 in the file.
Thx for the reply.

Use Variables.
Set the Variable to zero at the stream of the stream.
Write the value to the text file at the start of the stream / macro.
When you die , run this ..
For mine , i don't use a hotkey ... I get the plugin to detect the video of my game.. for the "DYING SCREEN" ( Diablo IV )

Hey,
I'm doing live streams daily and since I am not always watching the screen, I have created various telegram alerts for issues that occur during the shows.
Now, I am trying to find a way for OBS to notify me if there is an issue with the sound coming only from one side (L or R). It seems like there are no matching criteria in the Advance Scene Switcher.
Does anyone have an idea of how I can solve that?
All the best

Depending on where the tap point is, that Adv. SS looks at, you might use the same trick that is normally for getting two separately controlled mics from a single 2-channel interface:
Have two copies of that stereo source, and pan them hard left and hard right. Normally you'd also use the Mono button to put them back in the center, but if you're only using them for automation triggers, you might not need that. And since they're only for automation triggers, don't send them anywhere either. Monitor Off, and uncheck all of the Tracks. Also wouldn't hurt to name them something to remind you what's going on there, 'cause that's not a "normal" configuration that most people have.

Hiya!
My OBS log apparently has a weird entry about AdvSS.
It says:
19:39:07.904: [adv-ss] detected busy loop - refusing to sleep less than 1ms (There's a million of these. Ask the dev of the plugin what's up with that. Could be performance killer, who knows?)
And of course here's my log.

I have an app called Outplayed on Overwolf. it detects games and automatically records them. I've been trying to use AdvSS to re-create this in obs. my first and only idea of this was when the source game capture detects a full-screen game, AdvSS would start recording. then when game capture stops detecting a game, AdvSS would end recording. (auto game is the game capture source)
anyone have any better ideas?

Trying to debug an issue I've been having - When obtaining the json from a source, the "text" field doesn't populate if it's reading from a file. It appears to just be the text if "Read From File" is checked on the source.
Is there any way to obtain the actual value of the text file?

You've got a lot from streamelements as well. That's known to be problematic too. Good ideas, but poorly written.
And those entries come up long before Adv. SS does. Generally, software problems tend to be more related to earlier reports than later ones. In fact, later ones are often side-effects of the earlier ones. So the standard procedure to fix them is to start at the top, fix the first one, and create a new report. Then fix the first one again, and create a new report. Etc.
A source being active in OBS does not mean it's receiving data, unfortunately. It simply means it's being shown, data or not.
You might use the Video condition on that source, to see if it's changing. This also accounts for OBS hanging on the last frame when it stops receiving data...provided that the data itself doesn't become static.
@Warmuptill would know this better than I do, but my understanding is that the "settings to match" is just a dumb string that is compared to what is read from the source's settings. No more logic than that.
If all you care about is the file, and not the source, then you could use the File condition instead. You'd have that path in two places now - the source and the condition - that you'd have to keep in sync manually, but I think it should work.

This log appears, if the execution of a "interval" of checking all macro conditions and executing the relevant macros takes longer than the value you have configured here on the General tab:
If such a situation is detected the plugin will not immediately run the next "interval" of checking conditions and running actions, but instead wait a bit, as to avoid fully loading the CPU.
Depending on what you have configured this might be expected.
For example, you can run into this situation, if you have very long running actions in Macros or have configured a very low value for the "Check conditions every X ms" field.
As this is mostly useful when debugging issues I will adjust the behavior of the plugin to only print this message when verbose logs are enabled.
Sorry if this caused issues on your side!
If you want to assign the content of a file to a variable you can use the "File" condition type.
Here is an example:
I assume the "Text Source" source type does not use the "text" settings value when reading from a file, as the text to be displayed is not stored in its settings, but at the given file path.
Thus, an empty string for "text" is likely to be expected in this case.

As already mentioned by AaronD the Video condition might be of help here.
In particular the "<source> has no output" check.
You can then set up a macro like this to automatically start recoding once the source has something to capture:
You can import this example macro using this code:

What i want is to crate a macro that will hide my webcam when i show "display capture window" and make it full screen as for now it's on the middle of a screen/ For example i chatting with people, they see my browser window and when i wanna show them youtube video it should open full screen and hide my webcam.
This is my best. The problem is it enables/disables instead of hiding and also it not switching to full screen mode, and also not returning back. Thanks in advance!

First, I'd suggest considering whether that is a Source you want to Turn On/Off, or would that be better in its own Scene (Duplicate Scene, then re-arrange for new layout)... possibly picture in picture with webcam in a corner... or as you prefer... I'm sure others will provide other guidance, but maybe the simpler, basic OBS Studio operation approach (ie using Scene layout) might make more sense?
Yes. I've found that OBS tends to work better with lots of simple scenes, and duplicated sources across those scenes. If you copy/paste by reference (the default), then I believe it only counts once overall, and not once per instance, in terms of the required processing.
But if you have a machine that can easily handle the Multiview, the additional load of actually duplicating it probably doesn't matter anyway.
