execMacroStopRecording not working

execMacroStopRecording not working

Hi,

When using execMacroStopRecording, it throws the following error:

ubyte format requires 0 <= number <= 255

setMacroAction(macro_position, ATEMMacroActions.stopRecording) does work, however.

Hi @mitchellklijs !

That indeed looks like a bug...

Looking at the original protocol dissection I found this in the description of MSRc (Macro Start Recording)

Seems like bytes 0 and 1 could be combined into an u16 to specify the macro index. This way, both values 0-99 and 0xFFFF could fit.

This is pure speculation, so I would like to ask you to try the modified code (I already made the change in my repo) and confirm it works.

I created a branch for this (fix-msrc-index-#14) with a single commit to fix the issue.

Could you check if this fixes the issue ?

Hi,

I've checked. Unfortunately it does not fix the issue. The error message is gone, but it doesn't stop recording the macro.

The change in execMacroRecord does not affect it's functioning. It still works just fine.

Using Wireshark, I see that the ATEM software itself also sends a MAct to stop recording a Macro (send in this library using setMacroAction). So maybe sending 0xFFFF isn't supported (anymore)?

It seems to be a version issue, I'm afraid...

Looking at ATEMProtocol.py I see that MAct is tagged as Not implemented: Macro Action.

Anyway, I just wrote a little script to check protocol version for another issue, please run it and post your results.

import PyATEMMax
import logging

SWITCHER_IP = "192.168.x.xxx"

switcher = PyATEMMax.ATEMMax()
switcher.setLogLevel(logging.DEBUG)
print(f"Connecting to {SWITCHER_IP}")
switcher.connect(SWITCHER_IP)
switcher.waitForConnection()
print("Connected")

version_str = f"{switcher.protocolVersion.major}.{switcher.protocolVersion.minor}"
print(f"Switcher protocol version: {version_str}")

switcher.disconnect()

My output:

$ python3 version-check.py

I found this in a project named libqatemcontrol.

I'll give it a try...

Answer 6 · 2022-08-15T22:05:35.000Z

Just pushed a new commit to this issue's branch, can you please check if it works for you?
If so, I'll add it to the main branch and publish a new version

Answer 7 · 2022-08-15T23:19:07.000Z

Could try it myself and it worked!

It will be available on the next version of the library (I'm planning to fix one or two more things before publishing)

Version 1.0b8 already available.

Answer 9 · 2022-08-27T08:57:16.000Z

Hi,

Wasn't able to test it before you did :). But today, I tested it as well and it's all working for me as well!
