Companion 3.5.x seems broken for video Remaining Time

Jesse

I am not sure where to post this, Companion 3.5.x will not monitor a video track for time remaining as expected. The Millumin variables do not seem to work and return a "0" value.

Companion 3.4.4 works fine with the built in Millumin variables.

Works in Version 3.4.4 does not in 3.5.x:

$(millumin:timeLayerRemainingTime)

in 3.5.x the variable string is different and returns zero:

$(millumin:media_Video_remainingTime)

This seems to work but I am concerned this isn't correct for videos.

$(millumin:media_firstByIndex_remainingTime)

I've experienced this in both version 4 and beta Millumin5. Can someone clue me in to whats up?

My 1080p video is playing on a layer called Video and I have Companion set to monitor that named layer.

Hello @Jesse,

Someone changed the code of the Millumin module and renamed the variables. See this code commit and here is the profile of this people to contact him.

In brief, the name of the variables is now related to the name of the layer to track : if your layer is named Video, yes, the variable is now $(millumin:media_Video_remainingTime)

Futher more, you can track the time of several layers this way. See the configuration below that instances $(millumin:media_layer_remainingTime) and $(millumin:media_test_remainingTime) variables :

Best. Philippe
