Automatic Source Fade in/out

[CaptainKamikaZ]

I have been trying to get a loop of fade in and fade out to work with a group of sources and a move action filter, but keep running into problems. Would anyone know how I can make my sources fade in and out continuously so I don't have to use hotkeys?

I made fade-in and fade-out filters using Color correction and Move Value filters. That works without issue.

Then, I made Move Action 1 and Move Action 2. Move action 1 triggers Fade In, and Move Action 2 triggers Fade Out.

Move Action 1 End Move: Move Action 2
Move Action 2 End Move: Move Action 1

I added delays that are long enough so there are no issues with the transitions.

When I set all of this up, it works perfectly. However, when I close OBS and open it again, the Move Action filters no longer function. Does anyone have any idea why this would happen?

This is exactly what I am trying to do, but I want it to automatically activate after we press transition to fade in text after 2 seconds, text will stay on for 4 seconds, and fade out - I can't get it to automatically do it ... can you help?

Only way i can think of are the following steps:

1) Create your Color Correction Filter on the group or specific source you want the loop to happen

2) Create a Move Value Filter for your CC in the source group and set opacity to 1. I.E (Cam Group [Cam 1, Cam 2, Cam 3])

3) Create a second Move Value Filter for your CC in the in the source group and set the opacity to 0. *This will be your fade out)

4) Set your durations, delays, etc to how you want it on both Move Value Filters. Check "Filter only enabled when moving" on both then set both to "Activate: When this filter becomes actively shown in the final mix"

5) Set the "Next Move" of your first CC Move Value Filter to the Second Value Filter and set the "Next Move" of your second to the first

6) Create a Move Source filter in the source your want this loop to happen. In here choose the Source/Group you've set the loop in.

7) Set your durations, delays, etc to your liking. Unless you need the position to change, uncheck Transform

8) Uncheck "Filter only enabled when moving." Set Start trigger to "Filter only enabled when moving" on both then set both to "Activate: When this filter becomes actively shown in the final mix"

9) Toggle the Move Source filter you just created then set "Simultaneous Move" to either the first or second Move Value filter

If done correctly, every time you switch the scene that you have the fade loop, it should automatically trigger non stop. Hope this helps and can't wait to see what you've done with it.

Happy Editing!
