ATEM reset Macro

Hi everyone

For our production we use the Atem Mini Pro with different setups.
For the different setups we have different config XMLs.

When I import the config, then for example all media get deleted and imported new. But for macros all previous existing still remain. From the imported config the macros only get overwritten.

Is there an option to first delete all existing Macros before the import (in a easy was, instead of delete 40+ Macros manually).

Would be very helpful, to ensure, that only the macros of the last imported setup are loaded and no macro could be trigger which is not part of the setup.

Thanks

My upcoming MixEffect app for ATEM switchers will do just that. There's a feature in the app to delete all macros on the connected ATEM switcher. Here's a screenshot of the control:

adam, looks very good
what will be the target price for the pro version
and when available?

Still finalizing. Certainly less than a six button Streamdeck, but more than your typical iOS game or app.

Single in-app purchase to unlock MixEffect Pro. No subscriptions, ads, or hidden fees. And there will be a generous 30-day trial of the app for you to evaluate it.

thx for the info

You can delete all macros with my Windows PowerShell solution. Script looks like this:

add-type -path ".\SwitcherLib.dll"
$atem = New-Object SwitcherLib.Switcher("192.168.1.240")
$atem.Connect()
$atem.MacroClearAll()

You can also clear just a range of macros. e.g. clear 50 to 99 (starts at 0)
for($i=50;$i -lt 100; $i++){
$atem.MacroClear($i)
}

Thanks Ian, will try out your script.

Hi Adam
Thanks for the information to your app.
I’m not share if we could use this in our production as then all personal should need this app.

But the Atem Simulator looks very interesting. This could make testing and preparation at home match easier

Curious whether people have played around with MixEffect. Looks great in the Beta, and would be great to play around with all the Pro features for free (eventually $49). Unfortunately, I can't get it to connect to my ATEM Mini. The IP address is the correct one, but it just says "connect" and "connecting." Only troubleshooting is to turn on and off the "Enable ATEM Simulator" switch but that doesn't change anything.

Thanks,

Thanks,

MixEffect developer here. Can you confirm that the Mini and your phone/iPad are on the same network? It won’t matter if the switcher IP a address is correct if they aren’t on the same network.

On your iOS device, go to Settings >Wi-Fi and tap on the little circle with the letter i next to the connected network. Scroll down and note the IP address. Compare it with your switcher. Are the first three sets of numbers the same?

Any plans for porting this to Android?

Hi Ian,

I used your method, and it did work, so thanks for that. I ran into a PowerShell error and hoped you or someone could respond.

On executing "$atem.Connect()" I get an "unable to load DLL 'TurboActivate64.dll': ...". The script runs and yields the desired effect. But why the error and do I need to also 'Add-Type' that dll?

Best Regards,

Early on, the developer stated that he was using an IOS/MAC specific development platform and could not support Android.
