For my event, I'm using VirtualDJ to drive content to a projector, and I was trying to program buttons on the launchpad to trigger some events - For purposes of the questions just think of launchpad as a trigger for a script:
1) I'd like to clear the automix list and load in a named playlist of videos - That would save me having to do it manually on the night. Is there any way to do this?
2) When the video mixer is in Manual Cross Fader mode; it has little buttons for "A, B, C, D" to tell VirtualDJ which deck's video source to use - But I can't find an equivalent command for this in VirtualDJ's scripting. Is there one?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Many thanks,
Soen

Well, that's typical, I've just figured out how to answer question 2 - to force a deck's video into the master, posting it here to help others:
deck 4 over_video
or you can also use
deck 4 rightvideo_button
Maybe I wasn't looking hard enough :'D

And looks like I answered my first question as well:
playlist_load "Lists & Advice\Playlists\<playlist name>"
Oh well, I hope that helps someone!

The Magic.DJ
this will clear and goes to your created list and load into the Automix Window
playlist_clear & browser_gotofolder "C:\GOTO WHERE YOU CRATED YOUR PLAYLIST.m3u" & playlist_load & browser_window 'automix'
playlist_clear & browser_gotofolder "C:\GOTO WHERE YOU CRATED YOUR PLAYLIST.m3u" & playlist_load & browser_window 'automix'
