live.object: Setting the Id cannot be triggered by notifications

defetto's icon

Hello,

I am trying to build a simple m4l device which gets the name of the playing clip in its track. Afterwards I will have to send this name via OSC to an external application.

Please see attached amxd, I am just using a simple live.path - live.observer - live.object combination which should be fine, however I get this notification in the max window and the device isn't working as expected.

I hope someone has the solution to my simple problem, probably I'm just doing something wrong, thanks a lot for your time.

Cheers,
Pedro

Insert [deferlow] after the observer (explained in 'Live API Overview', section 'Notifications').
