'''Problem'''

JavaScript is not functioning as intended. No corresponding action happens when the trigger button for the event is pressed.

'''Hints'''

# Open the JavaScript console by pressing Ctrl+Shift+J (Mac:Command+Shift+J) and look for error messages.
# Check for syntax errors in your code and ensure that interface functions are written correctly.
# Check that predefined hooks and functions like e.g. on_trigger() are written correctly. Syntax highlighting and coloring may help you identify these issues.
# When resolving widgets, verify the used widgets address (e.g. "/mxw/render/opacity") and make sure that it is valid. To find the correct address, maybe refer to the list of address suggestions available in the 'Receiver' menu.

This applies to Windows 10 and above and MXWendler version 5.0 and above with AJA Kona 5 (and maybe other) capture cards installed.

'''Problem'''

The capture card is not visible in Settings->Live Devices

'''Solution'''

You have to manually install the DirectShow drivers

# Download the driver
# Unpack driver in location where driver can stay. '''You must not delete or move the driver later.'''
# Locate this location with the explorer
# Copy the location path in the adress line
# Register driver as admin via command terminal:
## Click on 'Start'
## Type <code>cmd</code>
## Right-click CMD-app 'Start as Administrator'
## Navigate to the drive and folder where the AJAMultiCapture64.dll driver with the command <code>cd D:\to\my\folder</code> and paste the path copied before (copy/paste will not work, because it is an Administrator Shell)
## type <code>regsvr32 AJAMultiCapture64.dll</code>

[[File:RegisterAjaKona.png|500x280px|thumb|center|Register AJA Kona DirectShow driver]]

Tip: Sometimes Stage Designer / FXServer complains with 'Cannot find VIDEOINFOHEADER' and does not open the device. In this case, set the AJA capture format to RGBA8 '''and restart the computer system'''.

[[File:AjaKonaARGB8-Marked.png|500x280px|thumb|center|Screenshot AJA Kona Windows DirectShow Capture 8-Bit RGBA]]

'''Background'''

The AJA Kona driver comes with a broken DirectShow installer and driver. You have to register the device manually as admin so it can be found by other software.

Hendrik: /* Set Reference */

Here are listed the main commands that can be used for scripting with JS.

=== Legend ===
<div>

The standard used to represent the available values for each command is:

''FLOATS'' are represented with one decimal:

<code>0.0 .. 1.0</code> → all float values between 0 and 1 included

''INTEGERS'' are represented with numbers or descriptions:

<code>1 .. 5</code> → all integers between 1 and 5 included ( 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 ) <br>
<code>1 .. (MAX n layers)</code> → all the integers between 1 and the maximum index of layers in MXW (e.g. if 6 layers are being used the values are integers between 1 and 6 included)

When only one number is indicated it means that only one option is given. This is found in addresses of buttons, checkboxes and in the options where "0" or "1" are the only significant values

''STRINGS'' are represented between double quotation marks:

<code>/mxw/set info </code>

When <code>“name”</code> is contained in the available string variable, then the content is to be substituted with the actual name.

E.G. : to select and play a patch called “patch_one” from its name, the address <code>/mxw/set</code> with tokens <code>"play" "name_of_patch"</code> has to be used, resulting in this OSC command:

<code>/mxw/set play patch_one</code>

When <u>OR</u> is found it means that two options can deliver a similar result. One of the two formats has to be used at one time.

Here are listed all the commands that MXW recognizes.

Hendrik:

Here are listed the main commands that can be used for scripting with JS.

=== Legend ===
<div>

The standard used to represent the available values for each command is:

''FLOATS'' are represented with one decimal:

<code>0.0 .. 1.0</code> → all float values between 0 and 1 included

''INTEGERS'' are represented with numbers or descriptions:

<code>1 .. 5</code> → all integers between 1 and 5 included ( 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 ) <br>
<code>1 .. (MAX n layers)</code> → all the integers between 1 and the maximum index of layers in MXW (e.g. if 6 layers are being used the values are integers between 1 and 6 included)

When only one number is indicated it means that only one option is given. This is found in addresses of buttons, checkboxes and in the options where "0" or "1" are the only significant values

''STRINGS'' are represented between double quotation marks:

<code>/mxw/set info </code>

When <code>“name”</code> is contained in the available string variable, then the content is to be substituted with the actual name.

E.G. : to select and play a patch called “patch_one” from its name, the address <code>/mxw/set</code> with tokens <code>"play" "name_of_patch"</code> has to be used, resulting in this OSC command:

<code>/mxw/set play patch_one</code>

When <u>OR</u> is found it means that two options can deliver a similar result. One of the two formats has to be used at one time.

Here are listed all the commands that MXW recognizes.

Here are listed the main commands that can be used for scripting with JS.

=== Legend ===
<div>

The standard used to represent the available values for each command is:

''FLOATS'' are represented with one decimal:

<code>0.0 .. 1.0</code> → all float values between 0 and 1 included

''INTEGERS'' are represented with numbers or descriptions:

<code>1 .. 5</code> → all integers between 1 and 5 included ( 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 ) <br>
<code>1 .. (MAX n layers)</code> → all the integers between 1 and the maximum index of layers in MXW (e.g. if 6 layers are being used the values are integers between 1 and 6 included)

When only one number is indicated it means that only one option is given. This is found in addresses of buttons, checkboxes and in the options where "0" or "1" are the only significant values

''STRINGS'' are represented between double quotation marks:

<code>/mxw/set info </code>

When <code>“name”</code> is contained in the available string variable, then the content is to be substituted with the actual name.

E.G. : to select and play a patch called “patch_one” from its name, the address <code>/mxw/set</code> with tokens <code>"play" "name_of_patch"</code> has to be used, resulting in this OSC command:

<code>/mxw/set play patch_one</code>

When <u>OR</u> is found it means that two options can deliver a similar result. One of the two formats has to be used at one time.

Here are listed all the commands that MXW recognizes.
