Stream and recording start/stop event notification

[WolfeComputerServices]

Is there a way for a plugin (or other method) to be notified (for the purpose of causing an outside action) to "notified" when a stream starts and stops and when a recording starts and stops?

I think the functionality you are looking for is in the ChannelManager class. You need to bind separately to the stream-start and stream-end events, but both of them should return a StreamInfo object which contains the channel name and other stats.

Is there a separate event for “record-start” and “record-end” to distinguish between streaming and recording (or both)?

I'm afraid we don't have separate events for streaming and recording. You can, however, check in the event itself which channel (stream) or recording triggered the event, as shown below:

xjs.ChannelManager.on('stream-start', function(res) {
  if (!res.error) { // No error
    const { channel } = res; // StreamInfo Object

    // const name = channel.getName();
    // if (name === 'Local Recording') {
    if (channel._channel.serviceName === 'LocalRecording') {
      console.log('LOCAL RECORDING STARTED!!!')
    } else {
      console.log('STREAM STARTED!!!')
    }
  }
});

The commented lines are the previous codes used to check for local recording. But this is now insufficient since this only shows the local recording for the active scene. Recent changes to XBC allowed recording of non-active scenes, which use a different channel name, but with still the same service name.

Perfect! Thank you!
