Just found this post when searching for the same issue. Thanks, Mike.

If anyone wonders how I did this eventually, I made the format of the text I required in Sony Vegas, and then wrote C# to recreate the file I was using, like a temp.xml, and just overwrote it before using.

Then I insert that media, and viola, it displays the correct text.

// List of White Scorers
generatorb = app.Generators.GetChildByName("Sony Titles & Text");
CreateWhiteList(WhiteScoreString);
mediad = new Media(generatorb, "EndScoresWhite");

streamd = mediad.Streams[0];
newEventd = new VideoEvent(endDisplay, endDisplayFor);
app.Project.Tracks[2].Events.Add(newEventd);
taked = new Take(streamd);
newEventd.Takes.Add(taked);

public int CreateWhiteList(string str)
{
string path = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments) + "OFX Presetscom.sonycreativesoftware_titlesandtextGenerator" + "endscoreswhite.xml";

if (File.Exists(path))
File.Delete(path);

using (StreamWriter sw = File.AppendText(path))
{
sw.WriteLine("<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>");
sw.WriteLine("");
sw.WriteLine("com.sonycreativesoftware:titlesandtext");
sw.WriteLine("1 0");
sw.WriteLine(" {rtf1ansiansicpg1252deff0{fonttbl{f0fnilfcharset0 Interstate;}}");
sw.WriteLine("viewkind4uc1pardlang1033bf0fs13 " + str);
sw.WriteLine("}");
sw.WriteLine("");
sw.WriteLine("");
sw.WriteLine("0.952941 0.952941 0.952941 1.000000");
sw.WriteLine(" _None");
sw.WriteLine("");
sw.WriteLine("1.000000");
sw.WriteLine("0.533000 0.220000");
sw.WriteLine("0");
sw.WriteLine("0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000");
sw.WriteLine("0.000000");
sw.WriteLine("1.000000");
sw.WriteLine("7.500000");
sw.WriteLine("0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 1.000000");
sw.WriteLine("false");
sw.WriteLine("0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 1.000000");
sw.WriteLine("0.200000");
sw.WriteLine("0.200000");
sw.WriteLine("0.400000");
sw.WriteLine("");
}
return 1;

My request was for example code for using “Sony Titles & Text” and customizing the text used.

[Austin Brock]

Could you possibly give some examples of the OpenFX plugins, please?

[Austin Brock]

I already use two monitors, I was just hoping to utilize the space on the other machine.

Thank you both for your swift replies :).

Thank you so much, John. That’s exactly what I needed.

Basically after editing a multicam video using two videos, I wanted to move the videos that are not muted to the second track, and the videos not used to the first track. Then I plan to make the muted videos a small window in one of the corners and unmute them, so that the track 2 video is the large view, but you can see the track 1 video showing in the corner.

This was my end result, it can only be executed ONCE per set of videos and is based on the default resolution of 1920×1080, but if I needed to modify anything, I could just mute the videos on track 1 before running the script again.

VIDEO OF THE RESULT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8fdAfv0kAo

using System.Windows.Forms;
using Sony.Vegas;

public class EntryPoint
{
public void FromVegas(Vegas app)
{
System.Collections.Generic.List muteWindow = new System.Collections.Generic.List();
System.Collections.Generic.List normWindow = new System.Collections.Generic.List();

foreach (Sony.Vegas.Track currentTrack in app.Project.Tracks)
{
if (currentTrack.IsAudio())
continue;

foreach (Sony.Vegas.TrackEvent currentEvent in currentTrack.Events)
{
if (currentEvent.Mute == true)
{
// Move to track 1
muteWindow.Add(currentEvent);

} else {
// Move to track 2
normWindow.Add(currentEvent);
}
}
}

foreach (Sony.Vegas.Track currentTrack in app.Project.Tracks)
{
foreach (Sony.Vegas.TrackEvent currentEvent in muteWindow)
{
currentEvent.Track = app.Project.Tracks[0];
}
foreach (Sony.Vegas.TrackEvent currentEvent in normWindow)
{
currentEvent.Track = app.Project.Tracks[1];
}
}

foreach (Sony.Vegas.TrackEvent currentEvent in muteWindow)
{
currentEvent.Mute = false;
VideoTrack videoTrack = app.Project.Tracks[0] as VideoTrack;
foreach (TrackMotionKeyframe keyframe in videoTrack.TrackMotion.MotionKeyframes)
{
keyframe.PositionX = -960+(480/2)+5;
keyframe.PositionY = 540-(270/2)-5;
keyframe.Width = 480;
keyframe.Height = 270;
}
}
}
}

Cannot implicitly convert type 'int' to 'Sony.Vegas.Track' for currentEvent.Track = 0;

The best overloaded method match for 'Sony.Vegas.TrackEvent.Copy(Sony.Vegas.Track, Sony.Vegas.Timecode)' has some invalid arguments
Argument '1': cannot convert from 'int' to 'Sony.Vegas.Track' for CurrentEvent.Copy(0, CurrentEvent.Start);
