AddMercalli not only works with Mercalli but also with the Vegas internal Stabilizer and it can automatically decide to use a preset for static or another for 'dynamic' scenes. Just try it, it is free.

@jetdv

One more question JetDV. I would like to write a script which can set up a previously specified value to Master Audio Effect. I mean exactly LoudMax64 plugin. I notice that this audio effect is not OFX effect (LoudMax64 (VST2, 64 Bit) - isOFX: False).

Can you help me how can I set up a value for non OFX audio effects? Is it possible at all?

Regards

Marcin

@marcinzm maybe best to create a separate thread for your new question.

edit: created here. Thanks.

There is a problem with the code. The Mercalli plugin has three pushbuttons: Unlock, Analyze, Reset.

Your code pushes all three buttons, the last of which is Reset. You may have noticed after running your script that when you play back video, you briefly see the Mercalli Analyze banner suddenly appear for one frame in each event. The banner is appearing on the 3rd frame of each event on my system. I'm almost certain it is because the Reset button is pushed.

Besides checking to see if the parameter is a pushbutton, you also need to inspect the label to see if it is the "Analyze" (whatever that is in your language) button. You need to ignore and not press the other two pushbuttons.

I just changed one line of your code to:

if ((ofxparm.ParameterType.ToString()=="PushButton") && (ofxparm.Label == "Analyze"))

Good luck.

if ((ofxparm.ParameterType.ToString()=="PushButton") && (ofxparm.Label == "Analyze"))

Mercalli Version: 6.0.671.1 has strange Label "<<< Analyze" therefore I had to change that line to:

if ((ofxparm.ParameterType.ToString()=="PushButton") &&  (ofxparm.Label.Contains("Analyze") ))

@josifek Do you have Mercalli V6 version as OFX plugin and you use it in Vegas Pro 21? I heard that Mercalli V6 is not available in Vegas Pro software.

Dexcon wrote on 5/25/2024, 8:02 AM

The Mercalli V6 MAGIX plugin is for MAGIX Video Deluxe and MAGIX Video Pro X - https://www.prodad.com/Video-Stabilization-for-Professionals/Mercalli-V6-Plug-Ins-MAGIX-99742,l-us.html. The last Mercalli plugin for Vegas Pro was Mercalli 5.
