  • 1.  Dashboard isn't sending TCP Messages

    Posted 05-08-2024 10:42

    Hi,

    A few years ago, I used to work with an older version of Dashboard (6 or 7 something I think) and I used it to control a CasparCG server (mainly to play videos using Send TCP Messages (string)). 

    Now, new job, I try to replicate the process, but it seems like nothing is going out of the Dashboard. In parallel, the Caspar Client does send tcp messages and it works fine.

    Is it something new ? Has anybody ever had the issue ?

    Best Regards,

    Max

    Hi Max,

    Would you be able to post the ogScript being used to send the TCP message, as well as the DashBoard version where you've experienced this issue?

    Thanks,

    Hi,

    It simply was a visual logic Send TCP Messages with 127.0.0.1 as IP, 5250 as port and the string I wanted to send (a play command).

    Downloaded Dashboard today so 9.9.1

    Thanks,

    Max

    Hi Max,

    This is a known issue regarding version 9.9.1 and 'Send TCP Messages (String)' 's underlying rosstalk.sendMessages() ogScript command. 

    The issue has been resolved in 9.10, which is releasing within a week.

    In the meantime, if you replace the existing ogScript command to be 

    rosstalk.sendMessage("localhost", 5250, [your message here]);

    rather than

    rosstalk.sendMessage("localhost", 5250, [your message here], null);

    as it was previously, this will resolve your issue on 9.9.1 and allow you to send messages to the CasparCG server.
