Iterator Application Question - Cycle Module Inputs

Post by frank_halfwong »

Hi,

I've checked the manual, a few interesting applications of the iterator and the basic example project in MMV but I still can't figure out if iterators is the way to go for my need:

I have basically a bunch of transformations of my greenscreen/webcam feed that add various layers of stuff on it. Each of these are "possibilities" to show on screen. Now i'm using the playlist feature to cycle through them but I would like to go 1 step further and have them alternative per "copies" of myself (let's say a translated version of me on the right and another one on the left using "horizontal flip" module - each of them would use a different scene).

I was thinking of using the iterator to have each "clone copy" on each side alternative scene as an input. From a playlist perspective, it would be ONE scene, but there are alternative scenes as input modules. Is the iterator the way to go? If so, I cannot get it to get triggered by sound (i've tried adding an oscillator, a step and hold function so it would change in units of 1 for X seconds but without success).

Is what i'm trying to achieve possible using that or i'm going down the wrong solution? for OBS users, this is equivalent to using a "source switcher" within a given scene.

Thanks in advance to this wonderful community!

Cheers,

Frank

You want the InputSelector module.

ok perf! i'll try that out. I'll use the iterator for other stuff (i noticed the sample projects used it in a totally different way).

Thank you so much!

Cheers
