event in a script used in an embed overlay

Post by moogwill »

Hi Bernd,

I just created an overlay made from a script
inside this script there's a event associated to a script line
on track played EXEC_UPLOAD_FILE D:\baseplayloud\nowplaying\promodab.jpg|ftp://privftp.online.net/www/dabsnap/da ... .com|xxxxx

When I use the test fonction, it's perfect.
but when the overlay is effectly played in the program, it doesn't... Any clue????

To test differentely I just add a first script line with the command ... will check at next play in a couple of minutes...

I just made a quick test here and it was working fine!
I did it the following way:
- I created a new script with 2 script-line, just Random from a media lib
- to the 2nd script-line I set the 'On Track Played' option and assigned the "SHOW_ALERT_WINDOW Test" command
- now I created a new overlay and set the mode to 'Script' and assigned my created script from above
- I waited til the overlay was due, showed up and started playing
- when the 2nd track started to play - the notification window was shown with the 'Test' text

So this is definitely working.

Maybe your EXEC_UPLOAD_FILE somehow failed due to credential errors or alike...
Maybe you can also re-test with the SHOW_ALERT_WINDOW command.

as it work when I use the test fonction, it can't be credentials issue..
Could it be cause I'm using overlays as playlist inserts??

The script will be runing in 10 mn so let's see then I'll try a thirdway if nothing happens.

Shouldn't be - but I guess to get cloder - just also add the SHOW_ALERT_WINDOW command...

my second attempt achieve the goal, but it is still strange.

- first case command script associated to my original script line won't work when the script is runing, but work when using test function.
- simple copy of this command added as a command line at the top of the same script make it without any problem.
