Shows, Snapshots and Cues
Shows and their snapshots/cues can be loaded by providing their names to the following method calls. There will be no check whether a show with the given name actually exists. Information about the currently loaded show, snapshot or cue is also available.
The ShowController object is available in conn.shows and supports these operations:
| Call | Description |
|---|---|
currentShow$ | Currently loaded show |
currentSnapshot$ | Currently loaded snapshot |
currentCue$ | Currently loaded cue |
loadShow(showName) | Load a show by its name |
loadSnapshot(showName, snapshotName) | Load a snapshot in a show by its name |
loadCue(showName, cueName) | Load a cue in a show by its name |
saveSnapshot(showName, snapshotName) | Save a snapshot in a show. This will overwrite an existing snapshot. |
saveCue(showName, cueName) | Save a cue in a show. This will overwrite an existing cue. |
updateCurrentSnapshot() | Update/overwrite the currently loaded snapshot |
updateCurrentCue() | Update/overwrite the currently loaded cue |
Please be aware that no confirmation is required when snapshots or cues are saved. Be careful not to overwrite existing parts by accident.
info
The Mixer Web App shows a hierarchical order of Show > Snapshot > Cue. However, in the protocol, cues are contained in shows, which is why loadCue() accepts a show and a cue as parameters, but no snapshot.
