Version 5.5 introduces Event Presets that can perform different recording or notification tasks, as well as trigger or control qualified hardware devices. With this useful workflow addition, one could, for example, start a backup recording on qualified hardware recorders such as the Ki Pro from AJA and the HyperDeck from Blackmagic Design or create and make REST API calls to 3rd party system in a very easy and straightforward waysystems effortlessly. The already well-known ability to trigger Bash Scripts (previously named Tasks) is of course still available and it got even easier to use.
