Is there a way to make a toggle button send 2 different commands, one upon activation, one upon release?
Can I add a $ variable within the address field with the toggle button? And if so, how would I define those variables?
You could define its address as follow:
#{
@{this} == 1 ? "/address_1" : "/address_2"
}
Or you could use a custom module to route your osc messages:
module.exports = {
oscOutFilter:function(data){
// Filter outgoing osc messages
var {address, args, host, port} = data
if (address === '/toggle_address') {
address = args[0].value === 1 ? '/address_1' : '/address_2'
}
// return data if you want the message to be and sent
return {address, args, host, port}
}
}

it’s working on toggle down, but does not send the message on toggle up.
I’m pretty new to scripting, is there something i’m missing?
Figured it out!
Turns out CasparCG needs >1 in the Data1 field of the message.
changing on=1 and off=2 worked
Edit: additionally, Prearg can be set to ‘1’ and values can be set to anything
Could you post a screenshot or be more precise for people to learn about your experience.
What is CasparCG ?
Cheers
Of course!

I’ve attached a relevant screenshot that depicts how I set it up to play and stop a media file, using OSC Monitor to check and echo the message.
