Send Comands to OBS executable on runnig time

[ceyaf]

Hi Dears,

can it be done?

I follow my last post, I need to "play around" with OBS each time I put the computer to sleep, and come back from siesta
3-4 times a day

I can load OBS with a predifined profile,
but still need to launch manually the full screen preview into the second monitor

can be this done with executable comands?

so far, thi sis the info I have found:

Launch Parameters | OBS

OBS has a WebSocket server. Set it up from the Tools menu. Does that do what you need?

Or, the Advanced Scene Switcher plugin can do pretty much anything in response to a lot of things:

Advanced Scene Switcher

This plugin will allow you to automate various tasks using "Macros". Macros consist of a list of conditions under which a list of actions will be performed. Examples and guides can be found in the wiki. Feel free to contribute! If you run...

Maybe one of those would be useful to you?

The WebSocket one uses OBS's server, and has to get through OBS's message filters before it gets to the plugin. So it's not quite as straight-forward as it might seem to use that one. But, communication between two instances of the plugin, using WebSockets, "just works". The plugin itself is already coded to get its messages through the filters so that another instance can respond to them.
