"OR" conditional in programming?

[livitup]

 

Surely there's a better way to do this.  My programming background has me wishing for an 'OR' command, but if nothing else, I've learned there's more than one way to skin a cat in Composer.  School me, Jedis?

Use variables. Whenever the source is directv set a variable. When that variable changes change the aspect ratio

 No need for variables.

similar to the way you have it now, for example:

when video selection changes:

if selected video device is Kscape

      Macro scope aspect

Else

macro standard aspect

 

 

else would be found under programming control in 2.10+ builds of composer.

Familiar with 'else' but need to account for two scope sources (Kaleidescape OSD and Kaleidescape Movies), so else doesn't help.

I don't see how variables will help - wouldn't I still need just as many IF statements?

Does the Kscape driver supply that res change to C4?

if so, you can till use else.

I believe there is a kscape device variable for aspect ratio

IF room selected device is KScape OSD

-- execute Scope Aspect

--stop

-- execute Scope Aspect

--stop

execute standard aspect
