Hello guys,
Please, is it possible for someone help me to create a script that lauchs Video Stabilization plugin with user view option = Expert ??
Can you please better explain what you're requesting?
Also, there's several stabilizers. Which one are you referring to?
Thank you for answering.
I meant, a script that lauchs Vegas Video Stabilization OFX plugin.
The plugin has a option - user viewer - and it has 3 options: Basic, Professional and Expert.
I'd like to apply the plugin, Vegas Video Stabilization OFX, with the option - user view: expert - selected, via script.
Is it possible to do that? Thanks.

It Worked perfectly. Thank you very much sir! You are a legend!
@jetdv Hello Sir,
Please, is it possible to add in the code the Analyze Motion push button and analyze automatically?

@jetdv It worked! Thank you very much.
I was watching your video tutorial on youtube about "Push Button" and this line of the code was a game changer for me;
" && parm.Name == "AnalyzeMotion "
It worked like magic.
Thank you Sir!
@jetdv Sir, one last question;
Please, If i want to add in this script bellow the Preset "Black" from media generator solid color and add an videoFX effect plugin Brightness and contrast?

How to get the list of effects: 
How to add an effect and pick a preset: 
Add Generated Media to the timeline: 
Pick the preset of the Generated Media the same as you would an effect.
Was just wondering if this script can be modified to do the exact same thing with Prodad Mercalli V5 instead.

I watched the tutorial videos and managed to complete the solid color script.
Thank you once again.
@Steve_Rhoden There is a post where @marcinzm talks about of a possible way to do the push button analyse automatically, i don't know if works, because i don't have Prodad Mercalli V5;
I just added the line of code;
if ((ofxparm.ParameterType.ToString()=="PushButton") && (ofxparm.Label == "Analyze"))
as @Robert Johnston pointed out.

@Thiago_Sase Yeah, i know that script already, but its not streamlined. You often have to initiate it twice for it to work.
@Steve_Rhoden I don't have the Prodad version, as far as I am aware, to do any testing.
@jetdv Here is the trial link if so needed: https://www.prodad.de/support/mercalli/mercalli-50-vegas64bit.exe
However after the installation, you have to copy all its folders from the default ofx plugins location to the Vegas Pro OFX Video Plugins folder, for Vegas to recognize it.
@Steve_Rhoden, I don't like installing unwanted/unneeded software onto my system. But I would think this script would work just fine there as well by changing the information related to which plugin to add and the name of the button to press. Naturally, I'd take out the three lines that changes the "Views" as well as that also won't apply but I don't know if there's something similar that might need to be changed in Prodad before pushing the button. The Prodad script shown above looks a lot more complicated (and I can't read the message contents) so it might work the first time if simplified... In other words, you might just try this:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Collections;
using System.IO;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Globalization;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Runtime;

{
foreach (VideoEvent evnt in myTrack.Events)
{
if (evnt.Selected)
{
string plugInUID = "{Svfx:com.proDAD:StabilizerV4}";
PlugInNode fx = myVegas.VideoFX;
PlugInNode plugin = fx.GetChildByUniqueID(plugInUID);
Effect effect = new Effect(plugin);
evnt.Effects.Add(effect);
OFXEffect ofx = effect.OFXEffect;
evnt.OpenVideoEffectUI();
foreach (OFXParameter parm in ofx.Parameters)
{
if (parm.ParameterType.ToString() == "PushButton" && ofxparm.Label == "Analyze")
{
parm.ParameterChanged();
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
public class EntryPoint
{
public void FromVegas(Vegas vegas)
{
Test_Script.Class1 test = new Test_Script.Class1();
test.Main(vegas);
}
}
@jetdv sorry, doesn't work. keeps throwing an "ofxparm" error, saying it does not exist.... Thanks still for the effort.
Sorry, the problem is right here. Change this section - I'll bold the important part:
foreach (OFXParameter parm in ofx.Parameters)
{
if (parm.ParameterType.ToString() == "PushButton" && ofx.Label == "Analyze")
{
parm.ParameterChanged();
}
}
@Steve_Rhoden I did the download as you mentioned;
Here is the trial link if so needed: https://www.prodad.de/support/mercalli/mercalli-50-vegas64bit.exe
I also followed those steps;
However after the installation, you have to copy all its folders from the default ofx plugins location to the Vegas Pro OFX Video Plugins folder, for Vegas to recognize it.
And, since the day you mentioned that Plugin, I was trying to find a solution for it. So, today I finally got it. Now, the Prodad Mercalli V5 plugin works as the same as the final script of Vegas Video Stabilization OFX plugin made by @jetdv.
Here's the code, Have fun;
