EOS Show Control

CueCam will send a number of Eos OSC Network Show Control Messages when actions are performed such as starting and stopping recordings, some users use these to trigger macros, channels, or recall specific snapshots to provide a visual indication of CueCam's current state as an alternative to the RTSP Streams

The following messages are sent when CueCam's state changes;

Eos Event String	CueCam Action
`cuecam_connected`	On new connection to Eos
`cuecam_started`	Started Recording
`cuecam_stopped`	Stopped Recording
`cuecam_marker_placed`	A Marker has been placed
`cuecam_lock`	OSC Lock Successful
`cuecam_unlock`	OSC Unlock Successful

Additionally CueCam also sends a 'cuecam_recording' and 'cuecam_locked' state with an edge of 1 or 0 as appropriate when the state changes, although this is currently less well supported in Eos.

Using these in Eos

There's a few different ways to use these events, some users like to recall snapshots to provide a clear visual indication of CueCam's actions, or use these messages to control a light to indicate recording is taking place.

For example, to provide a “recording” light (or an indicator on a magic sheet)

Pick an unused channel number (or a real channel if you're using an actual light)
Add it to a Magic Sheet and set the fill colour linked to intensity
Record it at full to a submaster (e.g. 90)
Create a new Show Control list of type Network
Create Event List item 1 as Input: cuecam_started with Action Sub 90 On
Create Event List item 2 as Input: cuecam_stopped with Action Sub 90 Off

Ensure the Event List is type Network, external On, status Enabled

Start a recording in CueCam, Eos should put Sub 90 to full and the light will turn on (or be reflected solid colour in the Magic Sheet). When you stop the recording the light (or Magic Sheet indicator) should turn off.
