When scene change, execute batch file

[homebro2000]

Is it possible to run Batch file while changing scene?
I am using HDMI switcher and I want to run batch script to send the command to my HDMI switcher while changing scene.

By default this is not possible. However I published an OBS script that does exactly this:

Hi Marq! Thanks a lot for this! But can you help me or walk me through what command I should use inorder for me to run a batch file whenever I switch scenes? I'm not sure what command I should input on the command box. Thanks!

If you want to execute a batch file you have to supply the full path of that batch file as command.

Example 1: executing `C:\Users\Marq\Documents\Downloads\my-script.cmd` for all scene switches:

• Command: C:\Users\Marq\Documents\Scripts\\my-script.cmd
• Scene values can be left empty

Example 2: executing different batch files for different scenes

• Command: SCENE_VALUE
• Scene1 value: C:\Users\Marq\Documents\Scripts\my-script.cmd
• Scene2 value: C:\Users\Marq\Documents\Scripts\my-other-script.cmd

This is really great and will hopefully help us a lot.
Just a quick question, when the script executes (on windows) there is a black box appears in front of OBS, presumably this is the script running the executable, so there is no way of hiding this? It's OBS command that I'm running, so maybe I can find a way of addressing the websocket directly though this instead but I'm yet to find that.
Thanks.
