What's new
Version 1.1.0
- Stream Deck and Companion buttons now show state: Play lights while the channel is on air, Loop while the channel's loop toggle is on. Nothing to configure — PlayGrid answers whoever sends it a command.
- The Play key on a remote is now Play / Pause, the same button as in the window.
- Multiview NDI output no longer drifts against real time — the cause of the occasional dropped frame on a receiver, even on the same machine.
- The iPad remote now receives transport and loop changes while something is playing.
- Playlist: blocks can be selected, Cmd+A selects everything, and Delete clears the whole selection down to one empty block. Cmd+A and Delete always act on the channel you are looking at.
- Playlist: drag a clip onto a row — the upper half means before it, the lower half after — and it lands where the indicator was, including at the top of a block.
- Stream Deck plugin 1.2.0 and the Companion configuration are on the download page.
Remote control
PlayGrid takes commands over OSC and sends state back, so a Play key lights while its channel is on air and a Loop key while the loop is on. Turn on OSC in PlayGrid under Settings → Remote and note the port (8000 by default).
| Stream Deck plugin
Elgato Stream Deck app 6.5 or later. Double-click the
file to install; set PlayGrid's IP and OSC port once in any PlayGrid
key — they are shared by all of them. |

| Companion configuration
Bitfocus Companion 3 — Import / Export → Import. Two
pages: an 8-channel overview and one channel with global transport.
Set the connection's target host to PlayGrid's IP afterwards. |

OSC address list — for TouchOSC, lighting desks or anything else that speaks OSC
| /pg/ch/<n>/playpause | Play / Pause toggle — what a deck key should send |
| /pg/ch/<n>/play /pause /stop /cue /fade | transport |
| /pg/ch/<n>/next /prev /nextBlock /loop | playlist |
| /pg/ch/<n>/selectNext /selectPrev | move the highlight without changing what plays |
| /pg/all/play /stop /loop /shuffle /record /stream | every channel |
| Channels are numbered 1–8 as on screen. A message with no argument, or a number ≥ 0.5, is a press; 0 is ignored, so button releases never double-fire. | |
| /pg/ch/<n>/playing /looping /pg/recording /pg/streaming | state, sent back as 0/1 to whoever sent a command |
Trouble installing?
macOS may say the app cannot be checked. Right-click the app, choose Open, then confirm — you only need to do this once.
