I hacked together some simple support for retrieving Sources from Group folders, if anyone is interested I can throw up a PR

I'm having trouble mapping the faders to the volume control. If I map one fader it maps every fader to the same volume control.

Hello. First off, thank you for this script. It is what I was looking for. I setup a midi button to "hide" a render source in OBS, but the script is not functioning. It registers the press, but fails to hide the source in OBS. Also, is there a modification I can implement that will give me toggle abilities? For instance, assigning "visible" and "invisible" to the same midi button and have it toggle between them? Thank you for your hard work.

I set up SetCurrentScene to be bidirecitonal and cannot get the LEDs to light at all. Set LED mode to External in Korg Kontrol Edirot. @houz how hed you setup your nanoKontrol 2 for this to work ?

I would really love to be able to control the delay value on the Render Delay filter with a knob or fader. I think this would be an awesome addition to the already existing filter controls available.

This seems to be a great plugin, But configuration would be much easier with a GUI,

Hey again,

Found another small fix that I can turn into a pull request if we confirm whether or not it's a Mac-only Issue.

In short, OBS Filter types received via the websocket are expected to be:
"color_key_filter"
"color_filter"
etc.

but in OBS 27.0.1 are returned as:

"color_key_filter_v2"
"color_filter_v2"
etc.

resulting in setup.py not finding any filters of the type required, even if present.

I've confirmed that simply changing the filterType string in the call to getCompatibleFiltersFromSource fixes the issue for the two filter types listed above, but would need to test the rest of the possible filter types to see if they are all changed in this version of OBS as well.

Hope this is helpful, and seems like an easy enough fix for me to help out with if you're looking for a collaborator. Thanks again Leb,
S

Hi,
Please add to supported/tested devices Behringer X-TOUCH MINI controller.
All buttons, knobs, fader works fine with MIDItoOBS.
Thanks!

All buttons, knobs, fader works fine with MIDItoOBS.
( Fader 1 & 9 dont work as faders, but as normal buttons cause they are Pushable )
Thanks!

I'd like to be able to forward MIDI commands to other applications. If I'm understanding it correctly, this would allow me to use some features with MIDItoOBS, like Faders and Volume Adjustments, but then I could use another program like MIDIKey2Key to set global hot keys.

Native hotkey creation would also be cool, but I feel MIDI forwarding would be easier.

Latest OBS-BrowserSource plugin doesn't reload when OBS-WS ResetSceneItem is issued anymore. But it does reload on browser URL change. So right now I can configure 2 midi buttons to pass different urls to reload a browser source scene item. So I've branched a copy of MIDItoOBS to start work on Making a "RefreshUrl" function. But after reviewing much of the code. I'm not sure where in the main.py script I can append a toggle string ('/?reload=0' and '/?reload=1') to the URL before sending the Websocket message. Any thoughts? Let me know if I need to clarify what I'm doing.

I don't know where to request, I really like this software and I REALLY DEPEND on this, I didn't update to OBS28 only for this script 🥇

Not very familiar with Midi (yet), but I am considering starting a project to create a Midi control device that also doubles as a VU meter for select audio channels in obs. Looking to see if this plugin can, or might be able to return 6-8 channel audio levels to the connected midi device at a configurable interval. Thank you in advance, and I apologize for my ignorance... also in advance.

For security I have a password specified in my OBS websockets configuration. It would be good if this program could support that.

Hi, tried to run it on macOs.
I got this message:

$ python setup.py
File "setup.py", line 783
print("Updating "", old_device_name, "" to "", new_device_name, "" now", sep="")
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Hi, I'm working on setting this up.
But, haven't quite figured if it is possible to trigger different actions (say, a "setmute on", and a "setmute off", with the same CC, but a differente value.

So that CC01 with midivalue 00 mutes a source, and CC01 midivalue 127 unmutes it.

Is it possible?

I'm trying to assign new buttons and the Run Setup interrupts when I choose the function I want the fader to call :

Updating scene list, plase wait

Do you have any idea where it comes from?

Hello,
I'm having issues mapping the faders on my console. The script is running in a loop asking me to map as if the console was sending information continuously even if I don't touch anything

Thank you

Any ideas here? The ownership of the device node looks fine - I'm a member of the audio group:

question: will this work ASIO plugins for OBS? If it can't be answered, I may just buy a control surface to test myself, but would like to know before purchasing. If it isn't, maybe a feature request?

Here is the plugin

Thanks!

Hi. In setup.py the requests for StartRecording and StopRecording are wrong. They send instead StartStreaming and StopStreaming respectively.

BTW, is there a way to ignore the speed of the keyboard? I've noticed that if the speed is too slow it flickers due to sending de signal twice. I can't use the toggle options since they register press and release independently.

Hi i see what you doing, it's really nice but you made SourceFilter but can you madeSceneFilter (because use Move Source Plugin) 🥺

Is there any possibility of this running automatically on OBS startup? I've been messing around a bunch with LUA scripting to see, and have it so that a script runs it, but then OBS just gets hung up because it is waiting for the script to end, and we need it to keep running. Any ideas?

Just followed your instructions step by step and am receiving the following error when running setup.py

Looks like it cannot find _rtmidi module I will dig into the script to see why it's not working. but something doesn't seem to be working right.

I was trying to set up a toggle button as such. the button lights up when pressed once. then turns down when pressed again. thus trying to set up toggle mute. but, it so happens i need to press the button twice for the toggle to happen.

i think the problem is, said button outputs value 127 when pressed first. then value 0 when pressed again. where in the miditoobs, the toggle is expecting 127 each time the button is pressed.

i tried editing config manually but i dont see a field for the value. as in when value 127 mute: true. then create another listener for that midi key with value 0 mute: false.

am i doing something wrong?

I currently am using an Xtouch Compact, And It has the ability to take midi feedback for lighting up the buttons, adjusting the motorized faders, etc. It would be nice to have an implementation for sending midi feedback to the controller, that way if I change the scene within the computer, the right scene button lights up, and if I change volume the volume fader updates to the correct position

I've got a Korg nanoKontrol2 and I've tried setting multiple knobs to multiple audio sources and their gain filters for adjustment, and I can't get it to work.

All buttons, knobs, fader works fine with MIDItoOBS.
Thanks!

Note :
Turn on the Device and press Shift + Channel to use Midi
In setup.py, i choosed : devicename": "Maschine MK3 Ctrl MIDI"

I tried running the .pkg again but it didn't offer the option. Thanks.

Hi lebaston100, and first of all thank you for your script.

I followed every steps from your installation guide, but i can't figure out why main.py is shutting down after recieving one input from my midi controller.

OBS registers that input, the sceneswitch works (wich is good sign i guess), but the websocket link seems to be lost right after that.

I'm using :

OBS Studio 22.0.1
Websocket 4.4.0
Python 3.6.5

Hi, I tried seting up a knob to control opacity.
But when I run setup.py, it doesn't give me that option. Only gives me up to gain filter.

The ToggleSourceVisibility function is not working if I want to use it on a diffrent scene than the current one.
Useful to toggle the visibility of overlays that are on one "Overlay_Scene" and that one gets included as source on all other scenes.

Error: "specified scene item doesn't exist".
The problem is, that the scene-name is not getting send on the GetSceneItemProperties.
I made a small workaround by using the field2 property, and changed the Template.

main.py changes:

TEMPLATES = {
  "ToggleSourceVisibility": """{
    "request-type": "GetSceneItemProperties",
    "message-id": "%d",
    "item": "%s",
    "scene-name": "%s" # <--- add this line
}""",

config.json example that toggles the visibility of the Source Text_Overlay in the Scene Overlay_Scene:

        "8": {
            "msg_channel": 5,
            "msg_type": "note_on",
            "msgNoC": 51,
            "msgVoV": 127,
            "input_type": "button",
            "action": "{\"request-type\": \"SetSceneItemProperties\", \"message-id\" : \"1\", \"scene-name\": \"Overlay_Scene\", \"item\": \"Text_Overlay\", \"visible\": %s}",
            "request": "ToggleSourceVisibility",
            "target": "Text_Overlay",
            "field2": "Overlay_Scene",
            "deviceID": 1
        }

But with this workaround the scene-name is getting mandatory and therefore the current-Scene option is probably not working any more.
And of course I did not modify the setup.py. I just noticed that it adds only scene and not scene-name to the "action" property in a ToggleSourceVisibility request.

Is there anyway to light up the buttons that I'm using and by that changing the color?! (I'm using a launchpad s)

I did everything thats said and the setup seemed to work perfectly but when I tried to use them on OBS, it didn't work out ...
Do you know what could I have done wrong ?

Hi,

first of all, midi2obs is a wobderful piece of software! Thank you!
I got it to work with my apc mini. Now i am wondering if i can assign the crossfader in the studio mode to one of my faders on the apc.

Greetings from Germany
Ludwig

I set a button to change a source's audio monitor to "monitorOnly." When I push the button my my MIDI device, the console reports, "[2020-10-21 22:08:00,312] (ERROR) T15644 : OBS returned error: invalid request type"

Here's my config:

"1": {
            "msg_channel": 0,
            "msg_type": "note_on",
            "msgNoC": 32,
            "msgVoV": 127,
            "input_type": "button",
            "action": "{\"request-type\": \"SetAudioMonitorType\", \"message-id\" : \"1\",\"sourceName\" : \"L1_Spotify\", \"monitorType\": \"monitorOnly\"}",
            "deviceID": 1,
            "bidirectional": false
        },

I'm having a problem with the location (and possibly name) of saved screenshots. Currently they are stored inside the MIDItoOBS directory and use the current timestamp + png as their filename.
I'd like to add the option to specify a directory so save in but before I do so wanted to ask what would be the best place to add this value: should I add it to the config.json file, or add it as a startup parameter? (like --screenshotdir, but this gets messy if more variables would get added in the future).

Is it possible to change position of scene? This is interesting for multiview.
Would be great if this is possible.

Heyo Leb,

See title, unless I'm mistaken. Got the error "'Table' object has no attribute 'purge'" when trying to clear midi devices with devdb.purge(), and sure enough not seeing that in the tinydb 4.3.0 table.py

I'm sort of new to python so might be missing something, but figured I would pass along, in case something changed from previous versions of tinydb. I'd offer to write us a helper function to replace the functionality if I knew with confidence I could figure out how, until then thanks for the app.

Best,

I saw a note that this has been fixed. Is this still an in progress feature?

There are Python script to EXE converters which I'm pretty sure don't require installing python 3 and a bunch of packages so it would be easier for people to use if its an EXE file

I can confirm the Novation LaunchControl XL works. Knobs, Faders, and Buttons all work as expected.

Really great tool @lebaston100!

I was trying to use this package today, and I kept getting an error that stated my device might be in use. I had no other applications that I thought could be the culprit. So I opened up the code.

By adding these changes:
++2:import traceback
++1523: traceback.print_exc()

I got a stack trace below:

>python setup.py
MIDItoOBS made by https://github.com/lebaston100

This setup assistant will guide you though the initial setup. If you experience any problems that you can not solve on your own feel free to open an issue on Github

!!Important!!
!!MAKE SURE OBS IS RUNNING OR THIS SCRIPT WILL CRASH!!
!!MAKE SURE THAT THE MIDI DEVICE(S) ARE NOT IN USE BY ANOTHER APPLICATION!!

Please select the number of what you want to do:
1: Re-Setup the midi devices that are used.
2: Leave the selected midi devices as-is and just edit button/fader assignment
Select 1 or 2: 2

The midi device might be used by another application/not plugged in/have a different name.
Please close the device in the other application/plug it in/edit the name in the config.json and restart this script.

I'll dig a little further, but wanted to throw this up here in case its a simple fix that you may respond before I can figure it out.

For instance, I have a nanoPAD2 which I use to switch scenes with, but I would also like to use the nanoKONTROL2 to control the audio inputs with the faders. Perhaps, having even two nanoPAD2s it would be possible to easily switch between 32 scenes this way.

in code only one device is opened:

but it is possible to run setup.py multiple times which also creates multiple "type": "device" entries, however none of the commands are bound to a specific device.

Suggestions are welcome... such as merging midi devices to represent itself as a single 'virtual' device?
